ployed in the foreign section of the ex-
hibition, after having fulfilled his func-
lions as naval attache at the embassy.

and never yet have l seen one display
the slightest fear of death" This re-
markable statement was made the 9TH

ticed many years in Philadelphia and
who has seen great deal Of hospital
service.
'It Is a popular fallacy," he went on,
ito imagine that deathbed scene Is
ever terrible other than as n parting
between loved ones. The fear of the
Unknown is never present ut the last.
Even amid ignorance and vice l have
never experienced such scenes as a
novelist who strives after realism will
sometimes picture.
"When patient is told that he can
not recover and the end is near, he in
yariably seems resigned to his fate,
and his only thought seems to be Of
those who are to be left behind. This
Is true alike OF men aud women.
"Those who become hysterical and
declare they are not flt to die are the
ones who are not as i'll as they think
they are. They always get well.
