him an early exchange. which, after
hearing of Jacks engagement, he was
extremely anxious to obtain. He was
passed through the lines to Chattanoo-
ga. vowing that he would give his life
to the Confederacy II lie could find a
Yankee bullet TO assist him. lie was
too manly and chivalrous to cast the
slightest blame on Jack for his disap-
pointment.
One morning took my friends from
Mr.. Stanforth' S-eNceptlng Helen-into
headquarters and introduced them to
the general. He was aware of our
coming and had directed that the out
laws should be brought before him ut
the same time.
Are these the men" he asked.
Eyes. general" replied.
To an officer of the guard he said:
"Take them away. don't wish to see
any more of them"
Jaquelne, who had heard these
words once before, when they were
applied to me, and consequently knew
what they meant, turned pale. She
begged the general to spare them. He
shook his head.

Captain Ringold, ''he helped u.s."

"That the skin Is intimately connect
cd with the lungs is proved by the
fact that our minor ills of the respira-
tory tract-colds. for instance--are al
most always traceable to a chccning
of the perspiration, so that the impuri-
ties of the blood poison us" says Har-
vey Sutherland, in Ainslee's. Every
body knows the story about the little
boy that was covered with gold leaf as
cherub for some Roman pomp and
how he died in agony n few hours
afterward. The poisons manufactured
by his own organisms slew him, to
say nothing of his suffocation. Burns
involving more than onethird of the
general surface are fatal because the
excretory powers of the skin are less
ened beyond the abilities of the other
depuratory organs to make up for.
"Narnish an animal and ii will die
In from six to twelve hours. say some
authorities. This incontrovertiblc fact
is matched by another equally incontro--
vertible-that nobody ever heard Of
any case of tnrrlng and fcathering that
killed the victim. lie might have had
all KINDS or trouble in getting the stuff
off, and he might have felt a shock
to his pride. but he didn't die that any
body ever heard of. ! never assisted
at n ceremony Of this kind Mt either
end of the joke. and so can't speak as
to the completeness with which the
body is covered with the tar. but from
my general knowledge of the character
of the people of the west and SOUTH
west, where such sports are freely in
dulgcd in, | should say that it would
most likely be thorough and comprc-
hensive plgmentation 1t may I've that
the man brenthes through the quills
Of the feathers stuck on, hut doubt it.
| should think tar would seal up the
pores of the skin quite as effectuaily
us varnish, and It is II paint warranted
to wear in all weathers and not to
crack or scale off"

Boston man, in Speai:!ng Of certain

ing story: "A middle aged American
couple travelling abroad some years
ago called in Rome on sculptor with
whom they had been acquainted years
before. The visit passed off pleasant
iy.. but at its close the host gallantly,
but none the less to her surprise and
chagrin, kissed the lady as he said
goOdby, The sculptor was an elderly
man. but nevertheless II was liberty,
and she was not astonlshed to hear her
husband calculate: why, never heard
OF such cheek I've good mind to go
back and tell him what think of him"
After two or three remarks OF a
similar tenor, in which the note of am
ger was rising, the wife decided to
pour oil on the troubled waters and so,
laying her hand on his arm. said: I
know, dear, lie shouldn't have kissed
me, but what does it really matter?
What does a kiss count In woman OF
my years? He is very old man. end
probably .he was following the foshion
of the country
Her husband turned an astonished
face OF course don't mind his kiss

rose, it's his having kissed me that has
hurt my feelingsv
