wood alcohol, 200 pounds of acetate of

LOCATING A COUPLET.
Familiar Quotation Ascribed to
Butler Is Placed.

Few popular quotations have more
engaged the pens Of critics than the fol-
lowing:
For he that fights and runs away
Will live TO fight another day.
These lines are almost universally
supposed to form part of ''Hudibras, "
and so confident have even scholars been
on the subject that in 1884 a wager was
made at Bootle Of 20 to l that they
were to be found in that inimitable
poem. Dodsley was referred to as the
arbiter, when he ridiculed the idea of
consulting him on the subject, saying,
every fool knows they are in 'Hudi-
bras. "
George Selwyn, who was present,
said to Dodsley, "Pray, sir, will you be
good enough, then, to inform an old fool,
who is at the same time your wise
worship's very humble servant, in what
canto they are to be found?''
Dodsley took down the volume, but
he could not find the passage. The next
day came, with no better success, and
the sage bibliophile was obliged to con-
fess ''that man might be ignorant of
the author Of this we'll known couplet
without being absolutely fool" But
Ter has indeed two or three passages
somewhat similar. The one that comes
nearest is the following, in ''Hudibras, "
book 3, canto 3, verse 243:
For those that fly may fight again,
Which he can never do that's slain.
The fact, however. is that the couplet,
thus enormously ascribed to the author
of "Hudibra occurs In a small vol
