Soldiers With Sweethcar,s' Portraits
San Francisco Examiner: Lovers in
San Francisco have adopted a new
means of proving their devotion.
"prof." Jack Londella makes n liv-
ing by tattooiug the face of infatuated
folks upon each others backs.
Londella's business brings him into
contact withAmen, women and chill
drcn. Women are his best customers.
Says he, regarding his peculiar mis-
sion:
During the war 1 tuttooed many a
soldiers photo upon his sweetheart's
arm, and the soldier often had her
picture, or name, written by herself,
reproduced upon his breast.
"Many British soldiers have had the
portraits of their wives or sweet
hearts tattooed OH the back before go
ing to South Africa. 1t is a fad with
the officers, especially. l know one
who has the portraits of two girls tat
tooed upon his breast with their
names beneath them.
You would be surprised to know
how many women bare their arms and
necks for the needles. 1t is becoming
Il fad here just as it did in London
years ago.
"Yes, a oma is usually scared
when she sees the instrument and ink,
but she gives me less trouble than a
man when she discovers that tattooing
doesn't hurt much after all.

ago she had II mans name placed
there. / had to o%blitcrate it by filling
in with a flower design. She said it
would never do for the groom to
know about the other man.

A slorx &c snmnol ltneera.

Ledger Monthly: Samuel Rogers,
the poet, was one of the prominent
figures in London society of whom,
Babbnge, the inventor, has n good deal
to say in his Passages from the Life
of a Philosopher"
The poet on one occasion spoke of
n disadvantage arising from having
ones windows formed Of one large
sheet of plate glass-a fashion then
only in its infancy. He said that, sit
ting at dinner one day in a friends
house. with his back to one Of these
single panes of plate glass, he fancied
that the window was open and actual-
~ caught cold in consequence.
Babbage, perfectly aware that the
unregulatcd Imagination was capable
of playing such tricks, had taken
measures to keep his own strictly nm
der control, and, to the great amnse-
ment of Rogers guests, he at once
capped the poets story by the follow
ing:
when l go to a friends house in
the country and unexpectedly remain
for the night, having no nightcap, l
should naturally catch cold. But by
tying a bit of pack thread tightly
around my head | go to sleep imagin-
ing that l have u nightcap on: .conse.

CHAPTER VII

IL was the next day before Enderby
was able to call upon DR.. Bunthorne.
You are interested in these people,
Enderby?" said the doctor, looking at
the young man sharply.
DR.. Bunthorne was a clever man OF
middle age. whom Paul had known for
many years.
Were you aware the sick man had
doctor Of his own attending him
DR.. Lyndon, whom l know by name
and report?"
Il was aware of that. DR.. Bunthorne,
though l did not mention 1t to you for
fear professional etiquette, Of which
you doctors make divinity, should
prevent your going. The truth is, I'm
afraid, DR.. Bunthorne. what am go
ing to say will be held as confiden-
tial?"
Certainly! At the same time, you
know, my dear Enderby, medical men
make 1t rule never to hear anything
to each others disadvantage"
More of your etiquette!" cried En-
derby. We'll, I'm not going to say
anything against your brother-profes-
sional; I'm simply going to ask your
advice"
Very briefly he told how he had frst
met Jasmine Lloyd. and then repeated
the incident of his last visit. and Jas
mines statement about the strange at
tacks to which her father had twlce
succumbed.
DR.. Bunthorne listened in silence,
and when Paul ceased, he asked:
DO you happen to have this bottle
Of medicine with your"
Enderby produced 1t from an inner
pocket, and laid 1t on DR.. Bunthorne's
table. 1t was a largish bottle. with the
label on which "Hypophosphates" was
printed still upon>it.
The doctor lifted 1t and looked at 1t
critically. There was very small
quantity Of light-colored fluid at the
bottom. The doctor uncorked 1t, and
applied his nose to the mouth.
Seems all right" he said critically.
However. you leave 1t with me. and l
shall have 1t analyzed by my own ana
lytical chemist. don't half like the
business, mind you; still. as you have
applied to me. feel bound to satisfy
you 30 far. But. you know, thing is
absurd. DR.. the man we speak
of. has the highest reputation"
What should you say Mr.. Lloyd
was suffering from?" Enderby inter
rupted.
"Well-ahem!-one hardly cares to
say from first examination. It looks
rather like an epileptic attack from
your description. He seemed all right
when saw him, only his mind was
wandering bit; he evidently did not
know who or what was"
"And yet when spoke to him few
days ago he was perfectly sensible,
and a. sane as you or l." said Ender-
by. do attacks Of this kind you
speak Of not affect the mind perma-
nently."
Usually" answered the doctor dry
". But. Of course, there ars cases of
periodical insanity. l should sdy this
is one"
Al Paul Enderby walked slowly
away from the Doctors West End
house. he asked himself II perhaps Ae
had been too hasty In forming his con-
clusions? Had his Instructive disliks
of DR.. Lyndon misled him? II DAVID
Lloyd and the man Gerard were ,ons
and the same person-as he felt sure
they were-was It not very likely that
sir Henry Lennox's account was Tie
correct one, and that the crime Of i've
years ago had besn committed In ! 1t

The Commission expresses the opinion
that this is an appropriate site

the North and the South were either en-

namely: On the Union side, the Army
of the Cumberland, 2 corps from the
Army of the Tennessee. and 9 corps from
the Army OF the Potomac, while on the
Confederate side were the forces of
Bragg, made up of his own army, Long
