trust Him Not...To Post Mail.

Every woman knows that giving
man letters to mail is foolish thing
to do. Several people were talking
about this on a Mount Airy porch
Wednesday evening when a. young
man, the son of q we'll known. Spruce
street physician, made an astounding
confession. "When I ! went to. look
over my last years clothes in the
spring." he said, 81 came across a. lot
OF letters int..e pocket of light over
coat. They all bore uucanceIed
stamps, and were addressed to various
people in feminine hand. At first I
was puzzled and worried to account
for them, and it was quite awhile be-
fore the truth dawned upon me. East
fall a girl | knew very well was married
to chum of mine. | was best man,
and, of course, a great many minor
duties dcvolved upon me. I remem-
bered that had been intrusted with
the mailing of lot of letters acknowl-
edging the receipt Of presents. These
were some Of the letters. OF course,
that was bad enough. but there is a,
sequel. The girl had always been very
popular, but after her marriage quite
number of people seemed inclined to
treat her with coolness. She felt it
all the more because she couldn't i'm
agine why it was. All this came back
to me when l found those letters that
had never been mailed. For two or
three days thought it all over. Then
| decided that the only thing to do
was to see all those people and explain
in confidence just what had happened.
It was duce Of q job, for there were
about twenty cf them altogether; but
I finally did it. Whenever I ana given
letter to mail now I carry it in my
hand until come to letter box"

If ever you want to pick com

forlorn hope, select young men from
II to u years old. They will go any
where in the world you will lead them.
AS men grow older they grow moro
cautious, but at that age they are
regular daredevils. Take our COM

"Arch Clements, who was the real

Sturgeon. He was first Lieutenant.
Clements came from kingsville, John
son County. He was killed at Lex

There were only two Of the gueril
las who would fight in battle just
like in personal difficulty, George
Todd and Dick Kinney. They would
get mad in battle just like in fist
fight.
"Nery few Of our men went through
the war without wounds of some kind.
Quite number Of the guerillas are
still living" Mr.. James mentioned a
number Of men who were at the Cen
tralia fight.
'The greatest raid made by the
guerillas was the one in September,
1864. We we're north Of the Missouri
Kives only about two weeks. We had
with us never to exceed 25O men. We
averaged battle day and we killed
over 1000 Federal soldiers, besides
destroying much Yankee property.
The only battles in the world history
to surpass Centralia are Thermopylae
and the Alamo. Next to the Centra-
lia fight is the skirmish at Baxter
Springs, Kas., where we killed 13O of
General Blunt's body guard"
"We never met many Federal SOL !

terms. They would either want to out
number us or would run away.

story, occurred at the battle Of
Franklin, Tenn. Young Theodore
Carter was fighting there. But few
yards away was his old home with his
mother standing at the window, watch
ing the battle and waiting for him.
He fought bravely that day. Almost
within a stones throw OF his mother
door, within sight Of the yard where
he had played as boy, he was shot
down and died"
James Clark, engineer Of the Wa
