CURING A SHIRKER.
Summary Punishment Was visited
Upon the Lazy Man Who
Played Sick.

An old civil war veteran tells good
story of how lazy private in his regi,
ment was cured of shirking. 1t appears
that the fellow was utterly no good. He
had been drafted into service, and
thereafter devoted his whole time and
attention to getting out of 1t. He spent
more than half of his time in the hos
pital tent. He ran the gamut of all the
diseases that flesh is heir to or has ac-
quired through its own misguided ef'
forts. Somehow even the severity OF
military discipline was inadequate to
his case; shirk he could and would.
One day the regiment was ordered to
battle. There was to be a long, hard
march and fierce conflict at the end
of it. When the orders came the shirker
collapsed. He was taken to an ambu-
lance, where he lay apparently in .
comatose condition, hearing nothing,
needing nothing. The surgeon, new
officer just appointed on the staff, was
sent for to see him. The physician
chanced to be keen-witted man, and
after taking in the situation he Saa.
daged the fellows eyes, motioned to
private to take his feet. while he him
self took the head, and without more
ado dumped the comatose shirlser head
foremost into the river. AS it was the
dead OF winter, with ice blocks,e elogginS
the water, more violent remedy could
not be imagined, and the way the fell
low swan to shore was a caution. From
that day forth he was never known to
try his game of shirk again.-Philadel-
phia Times.

DETAIL OF JAPANESE EMBROIDERY

grow stately hollyho"',s, pink and
white, and yellow, and crimson. The
silver look of the shingles is carried
out with light gray silesia cut in the
shape of the shingles themselves, and
each one is finished with irregularly
buttonhole stitchings and marked like
the streaks seen in old wood. These
slabs are then literally shingled on, like
those on the side of house, and
against this background the holly
hooks are realistically carried out in
embroidery and applied work.
Another successful conception by
the same artist-for one must be an
artist to obtain such results-is a
group of white sailboats in summer
blue sea in the distance, with reedy
fore ground and group of pink marsh
msilows as the salient feature. The
possibilities for such conceptions are
boundless; all that is required is the
cleyerHess to produce them.-N. Y

A Young Soldier.

Some people were talking recently of
the civil war, and the older members
of the company had compared rem
iniscences, (Which side were you on
during the war, Mrs. B-?" asked the
old young girl of the party, turning to
a bright Ittle woman who confessed
to having been born in 'G2. 81 was in
arms on the southern side" was the
quick reply.-N. Y. Tribune.
