Potts Did 1t.

Colonel Page, who commanded q
Pennsylvania regiment in the civil war,
often used to tell laughingly his first
experience in marching the raw men
who had enlisted for the war Of the re-
bellion. He was given command Of O
company, and after some preparatory
drill, led them down q street in Phila-
delphia. They marched as we'll as could
be expected for several blocks, when
suddenly from the ranks rang out a
loud "Halt!"
The men wavered, and then came to
full stop.
"Who gave that order?" thundered
the enraged captain.
Potts, sir!' "Pottsl'' a dozen
voices called, and every eye turned on
Potts, a stout German, a butcher by
trade.
"What do you mean, sir, by giving
that order?" demanded the captain.
We'll, sir, I've been trying for two
blocks to get this company to keep step
with me, and they wouldn't do it. So I
stopped them to begin all over again. "

Material For Cavalry.

While the United States does not
boast of large standing army, the few
regiments of cavalry which have seen
service on the plains will not only com.
pare favorably with the mounted men
of other nations, but for the particular
kind Of work to which they have been
trained they arc without equals in the
world. We have had no reason to keep
them in training, but if put to the test
we could certainly raise magnificent
army in very short time. Unlike the
early days of the recent rebellion, we
would have plenty of horsemen to call
upon.
Whereas, in earlier days, equestrian
ism was unknown, comparatively speak
ing, it has in later days become SO
general as means of exercise, recrea-
ton and health that old and young are
fairly good riders The various sports
of polo, hunting and racing have served
to stimulate interest in equation. The
military troops formed throughout the
country are also factors.
All of these sources would be drawn
upon for officers rather than for private
soldiers. They do not represent a large
number in comparison with the force
necessary to cope with foe, but they
would certainly prove q valuable nu-
cleus on which to build. Rider and

SOME SIGNS OF APPROACHING AGE

How . Man Showed That Ho Was Growing
Old Without Knowing It.
A man, apparently slightly past mid
die life, whose hair was tinged with
gray end noticeably thin on top, sat near
me ut theater. AS the curtain rose for
the first time specialized man Of about
the same age entered and occupied the
vacant seat between us. He looked at
the other fixedly. The look was ex-
changed, and in q second each had the
other cordially by the hand. The con-
versation told that they had been school
mates who had not met in many years.
"By Jove. Charlie" exclaimed the
first, it does me good to see you. You
haven t changed much more than have,
and am not day older than when we
got our diplomas
II can't quite agree with you, Tom,"
answered the other, "but I don't feel
very old yet. see you still enjoy the
theater, and suppose you have kept up
your literary tastes for the past 80
years"
Thirty yearsr' repeated Tom. Chow
the years flyl Do you remember how
they used to drag? Theaters Well, do
go now and then, but the plays and act
ing are not what they used to be. AS to
books, L still read them, but none Of the
modern trash. There hasn't been good
book written for quarter Of n century.
The new ones give me the dyspepsia
worse than what eat. Do you remem-
Der the meals we had on the old Yer
mont farm? Those were happy days.
Thirty years and more agol Strange, but
don't show sign Of age. 1 wonder
where this COMPOUNDED draft is coming
from. I feel neuralgia on top of my
head now"
"Tom, old boy" replied the other,
you are deceiving yourself, for you
huve shown marked signs of approach
ing age within three minutes. Your be-
lief that theaters and actors have de-
generated, that new books are below the
standard, that childhood cooking was
perfection and that time flies so very
fast are oil indications that you are on
the down hill side Of life. The slight
draft that you say brings tinge Of
neuralgia to the top of your head, where,
Inotice, the hair is rather thin, wouldn't
have been thought Of 80 years ago. Then
here you are in the very front seat Of q
theater. No use denying the signs, Tom.
We are getting along and must admit
what others plainly see. New York
