\ newly married young Washington
man took his wife to church The
sermon was just about we'll under way.
when he noticed the little woman at
his side suddenly start Then she
turned red, looked around nervously
and hesitatingly for half a minute rose
hurriedly from her seat and left the
church. The young husband, feeling
certain that his wife was i'll, wanted to
follow her out but he is a bashful man.
and the thought of the long centre aisle
that he would have to traverse in the
face of the whole congregation kept
him rooted to his seat He was pretty
glad when the services were over. how
ever. and he made his way almost at a
lOpe for his little menage He found
his wife cheerfully busying herself
about the kitchen.
Weren't you ill.," he inquired
breathlessly.
Why, dearie me, you know l am
never ill., was her reply.
Well. why. then. did you leave the
pew so SUDDENLY"
Il suddenly recollected. Jack" said
she, that l forgot to put the chicken

The disposition OF the prisoners cap
Vured at Santiago recalls 10 mind an
incident of the German revolution Of
1913. We were short of men and had
large number of prisoners to look af-
ter. That did not worry US as long as
We were not moving. but one day we
had to make forced march The
country through which we were to pass
was hostile. and extreme watchfulness
was necessary. We had few enough
men as it was, and We knew that those
prisoners were ready TO make a dead
run at the first opening.
Finally a young officer made a brill
liant suggestion and it was promptly
carried out. We ripped the suspender
buttons from the prisoners trousers.
took away their belts and knew we had
them. Their hands were busy after
that. and fast running was out of the
question. We made the march safely.

ingenuity could hare invented a sim

The lightest mention OF his name eyokes the
