Hints on Passing Muster,

Many of those engaged in recruiting
regiments believe that the strict physical
examination required by the government
for the first call for volunteers will DO
made more flexible for the 75, 900 men in
Guided in tho second call.
However, If tho medical examination is
rigidly enforced it will be well for officers
to remember tho experience of a sergeant
of the Eighth regiment, mustered in at
Mount Gretna. With the line officers ho
took great pride in tho company and OK
pcctcd 1t would DO mustered in entire.
Every man volunteered, but two were
thrown out in tho medical examination.
One was two pounds under weight and
the other was one inch too short. "If
had known beforehand" said the sergeant,
II would have filled one man up with two
pounds of beef and had the other man
measured in the morning, because every
man is taller in the morning than at
night. "-Philadclph Record.
