too busy to love or be loved. Her head
and hands were full of business; and
her heart was full of love for her
mother.
Richard Roe became greatly interest
ed in his friend, John Doe. He man-
aged to meet him at luncheon every
day. He walked to Does Office with
him, spoke to Miss Russell, of course,
and finally entered into conversation
with her. In an almost incredibly
short time he secured her consent to
call and "become acquainted with her
mother" On the third Sunday evening
he accompanied Mrs. Russell and Miss
Russell to church. On the following
Tuesday they went to the opera with
him. On the following Thursday after
noon he called on Mrs. Russell and in
formed her that he was hopelessly in
love with her daughter, and obtained
her consent to lay the case before Miss
Russell herself. On the following Sum
day afternoon, while out driving, he
told her his story of passion and love
in an eloquent manner. What do you
think that typewriter girl did? She
laid her hand upon his and sweetly
said:
II am not surprised at all. I knew it
from the moment / laid my eyes upon
you. l could see by your expression
that you were pleased with me, and 1
felt by the humping of my own heart
that if you ever asked me to marry you
must say yes without coquetting or
delay"
Thus it happened that John Doe lost
his perfect typewriter and Richard Roe
found perfect wife. If John Doe ever
finds another perfect typewriter, he
will not give introductions to his un-
married friends. SMITH ID. FRY.

Moro Than His Share.

A reply which was so we'll deserved
that its lack of grace might easily be
pardoned was made by warm-heart-
ed lrishman who served as sergeant In
a regiment of New York state volun-
tecrs during the civil war. He was
strong fellow, and was always ready to
tighten the load of tired comrade by
carrying his haversack. One warm
day, during a march, an officer who
wished to see how far poor Jerrys
good nature would go, asked him to
carry his haversack for awhile. Jerry
made no objection, and added one
more haversack TO the pack he was al
ready carrying. Soon another officer
came along with similar request, to
which the long-suffering sergeant also
gave assent. When the order, "Halt,
rest!" was heard, the men leaned for
live minutes against convenient
fence, letting the weight of their
knapsacks come on the top rail. While
they We're standing in this way, an
other officer strolled along, and seeing
the gooc-natured Jerry bending under
his tremendous load, he said, indig
nantly: Sergeant, you have the load

Jerry, touching his cap, his face sober.

Uncle Ned was really to blame for 1t,
though he had not the leaDt thought
OF such thing when he said to Dot,
as she came up with her round music
box under her arm:
Hello, little Dagol Where's your
monkey"
Now, Dot lives in the city winters,
and knows all about the organ men
and their queer little beasts. She comes
with mamma in summer to the biggest
country town in which mamma herselt
was little girl. She had always
thought it would be fine thing to have
an organ and go about the streets gath
ering pennies. AS Uncle Ned saun-
tered off she grew very thoughtful.
Then her face frightened. She ran
down the garden calling eXcitedly to
her little sister:

Sarah said yesterday you were one per-

The MAKING oE A MAN.
How an Unoducated Soldier Earned Pro.
motion.

How an Uneducated Soldier Earned Pro-
motion.
1t wns a common saying, and true
one, at the end of the civil war, that
the war either made men or spoiled
them. thousands of bright, prom,
ising youths were turned by the service
into rufIians or ne'er-do-wells. On the
contrary, many thousands of other
men, plain fellows whom perhaps the
ordinary callings and opportunities
of a life of peace would never have de.
veloped into anything but the dullest OF
men, were tempered in that hard
crucible until they came out the truest
steel.
The way in which some men were
"made" by the war was, however, very
like the way men are made by actual
circumstances of laborious life at the
present day. A writer of war remin-
iscences tells the interesting story of
u certain big man from the pineries"
who was a private in western regi-
ment.
He was very awkward man, but he
did not stay awkward. He had seen
the advantage of being n corporal, be-
cause n corporal never had to walk Il
beat for two hours; so he held his head
back, learned to step briskly, kept his
buttons polished and his clothes clean,
and promptly obeyed every order. So
after several months he was made
corporal in reward for being n model
soldier.
Then he had an ambition to become
a sergeant, and after doing as we'll
| as he could everything that a corporal
should do, he was one evening gratified
to hear the adjutant read on parade:
Corporal Henry T. Garfield is ap-
pointed third sergeant"
Then he went on being a good ser
geant. Some months after this the
captain came into his tent with sheet
of paper, and asked him to write SEN
tence. 1t was done, but in a very ba6
and crooked hand.
SIS that the best you can do, Henry?"
asked the captain.
'Yes, sir; our people couldn't spare
me to go to school much"
The captain wrote two or three lines.
and told the sergeant to copy them
carefully. The task was done, and the
captain set other copies, and still
others. By energy and application the
'pinery man" became quite good
penman.
The captain came to his tent one day,
and after looking at his writing care

command. Mr.. Lincoln said nothing
till just as he was finishing the re-
view, when he remarked to me, inquir
ingly: How is it, Gen. Howard, that
you have so large part of your COM
mand over there?" He referred to
those who appeared to be off duty, and
were on the slopes opposite to those in
the ranks. OF course, 1 explained as
well as could how the old guard, the
quartermaster's men, the orderlies,
cooks and other essential details, had
come out to see the president. Mr..
Lincoln smiled, and said gently: THAT
review yonder is about as big as ours!"
His evident criticism was wholesome
one to the young commander. Those,
altogether too large "details" were al
ways a source of great weakness to us

After Gettysburg received from him
a remarkable letter. 1t was in response
to mine urging the advantage of keep
ing the army under our new COM
mander, Gen. Meade. That letter was
long ago published in the Atlantic
Monthly. You will remember how two
divisions of my corpse and two of Slo-
GUMS, with our corps organizations
preserved, were detached in Septem-
Der, 1868, after Rosecrans' battle of
Chicl1amauga, and sent by rail far
west to his neighborhood, with Gen.
Hooker commanding the whole detach-
ment. Mr.. Lincoln and I, just before
my departure, had quite a lengthy talk
In his office room at the white house.
He had a fine, ''vell-mounted" map
hung upon framework. Mr.. Lincoln
took me to this map and questioned me
about East Tennessee. He told me
how loyal the people of that egion

Baltimore wants to buy Catcher Lake,

same fielding positions-centre, left and
right fields and first base.
John NJ. Ward has been offered $4,000
year to manage and captain the Louis
vile Ball Club. He has not answered
yet. Every effort will be made to i'm
prove the club.
Charles Cushman, manager of the Mo

Among the rumors afloat in New York
was one to the effect that Rusie had
been made another offer by the New

call on Rrsie in person while the team
is in the West, and try and get the big
f1oosier in line. The last offer, 1t is
said, is one that Big Amos can hardly
refuse.
Keister, one of the best-known play
ers on the lots of Baltimore, will be-
come an Oriole. Manager Hanlon has
decided to take him as q spare man.
