a MANS LAUGH.

An Incident Which Goes to Prove That 1t
Never Changes ..--.
If the Bertillon system of identifca-
tion had a phi geographic record of the
laughs of criminals it would probably
be as near perfect as an Identification
system can be. The fact that man
comes into the world wailing has been
regarded as a sort of prophecy of the
truth that as rule the sorrows of life
outnumber the joys when all the re-
turns are in, but an optimist might see
an opposite significance in the fact that
mans laugh remains the same through
all the changing years. When the cares
of manhood succeed to the happy-go-
lucky days of boyhood, says the Chi
cago Tribune, this laugh of his may be
called into use, as it were, very little,
but when it is put into operation it is
the same old laugh and every boyhood
friend would know it instantly.
An old soldier who fought through
the war with Fred Hartwick, who
drives a mail collectors wagon on the
North side, happened to be in Chicago
for a week not long since. He heard
that Mr.. Hartwick was on Postmaster
Hesing's staff and went to the federal
building to find him. He took his sta
tion at point past which all the car
riers fled to report for duty and as
Hartwick came along some one pointed
him out.
Without disclosing his own identity
the veteran approached and began ask
ing Hartwick If he remembered various
Incidents in the history of that regi-
ment during the war. OF course he
did, and they soon fell into converse
tion, organizing kind of campfire
meeting between themselves. One
member of the regiment was in busi-
| ness in New Orleans, another was in a
bank down in the state, several were
farming, one was the local manager for
one of the big commercial agencies in
one of the large cities, and so on.
Several times Hartwiclk asked his old
| companion-at-arms his name, but the
latter only smiled and went on with the
conversation. Finally, when it became
! necessary for them to separate, as
Hartwick was obliged to go out on his
run, the man laughed as he said
"Well, Fred, I never thought you'd
forget me after what we went through
together"
"The minute he laughed" said Mr.
Hartwick, in relating the incident, 81
knew just who he was and all about
him, but hadn't seen him for thirty
years, and he had changed SO couldn'
have told him from Adam. His laugh
had grown older, too, of course, but i
was the same old laugh"

AT THE CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.
 A large audience enjoyed forcible and uplifting discourse on Sunday morn ing from the pastor, Rev Mir Garter, whose theme was "The one thing need full" MT Carter preached from manu- script, but from the beginning to end held the close attention of the large audi ence. He delivers his message as If he meant 1t, which goes a long way in carry ing conviction to the nearer. This Wash. ipgton church, by the way, is one of the strongest of the churches of the denomi nation in Litchfield county. In addition to large majority of the town residents, it numbers among it's attendants good share of the summer guests. The writer attended rvice there on Sunday, and greatly enjoyed the vigorous sermon of MT Carter, and believes the church is to be warmly congratulated on their pas tor and leader.
