down, Kelly seemingly having the worst OF
the encounter.

Round Five-Kely opened with left hook
on the head, but Oscar blocked it and iabbed

Keliy's corner, where he swung lefts and
rights to Kellys leads. After making a cir

Fcy and the Lunatic,

Eddie Foy, the comedian, spent
summer vacation at his old home in
central New York. One day as he was
strolling past the large insane asylum
that stands on the outskirts of the town
he was startled by a low "Hist!" and
on looking up saw one of the worst
heads that ever came under his gaze
peering over the wall. Eddie was not
frightened, for he did not think the
maniac could scale the wall, but he
quickened his pace. He had proceeded
but a short distance when he heard a
scrambling, and on looking saw that
the mailman had climbed over the wall
and was following him. Eddie walked
fast, but the maniac, who was an i'm
mense fellow, with face that wore
demoniac look, walked faster. Foy trot-
ted little, and the mailman trotted
after him. Eddie finally broke into a
run and was Mortified to see that his
pursuer was not only running also, but
was gaining steadily. Eddie is not much

made remarkable time, but soon Foy
could hear the labored breathing of his
pursuer and felt that he could make no
further effort. Just as he was about to
faint from exhaustion the maniac

the shoulder and said: "Tag! You're

Soap.

The first distinct mention of soap
now cxtant is by Pliny, who speaks of
it as al invention of the Gauls, but be
that as it may the use Of soap for wash
ing purposes is Of great antiquity. In
the ruins of Pompcii complete soap
mandatory was found, and the uten-
sils and some soap were in a tolerable
state Of preservation. The Gallo soap
OF Is centuries ago was prepared from
fat and wood ashes, particularly the
ashes from beech wood, which wood was
very common in France as we'll as in
England. Soap is spoken Of by writers
in the second century, but the Sara
Gems were tho first people to bring it
into general use as all external cleansing
medium. The use Of soap is thus de-
scribed: "When examined chemically,
the skin is found to be composed of a
substance analogous to dried white of
egg-in Il word, albumcn. Now, albu-
ElCn is soluble in the alkalies, and
when soap is used fer washing the skin
the excess Of alE,;li combines with the
oily fluid with which the skin is natu-
rally bedewed removes it in the form
of all emulsion, and with it a portion
Of the dirt. Another portion Of the al
kali sCttens and dissolvos the superficial
stratum Of the skin, and when this is
rubbed off tho rest of the dirt disap-
pears. So that every washing of the
skin with soap removes the old face OF
the skin and lcares a new one, and
were the process repeated to excess the
latter would become attenuated. -

Good Friends.

In g cavalry troop there generally
grows up between each horse and his
rider strong bond of sympathy and
friendship. Soldiers in the cavalry serv-
ice are in most cases stationed at remote
western posts, where, far from home
and friends and as rule unmarried,
they are necessarily very limited in
their social pleasures and amusements.
On this account, perhaps, the propensi-
ty tor having pets Of various kinds is
very strongly developed and increases
the sense of fellowship between the
horses and their riders. Cruelty or in
attention to the wants Of their horses is
a rare trait among cavalrymen, and
even should this be the case from the
feeling OF proprietorship cruelty from
one soldier to the horse of another would
be resented as an injury to the owner
himself.
This comradeship is more in evidence
upon long march CT while in the field
engaged upon arduous or dangerous du-
ties On such occasions, when forage
often becomes scarce, cavalry soldiers
will jealousy guard every grim that
their horses receive, and should the SER
geant through carelessness or prejudice
give trif1o more Or less to one than the
other it often provokes vast deal of
grumbling, SO closely is the trooper in
terested in the welfare of his horse.
