can instance Of GOODNESS surprising

my personal observation some years
ago in southwestern Missouri while
4 was there on a hunting trip" said
Mr.. Lawrence Mcdonald, at the Ma
tional, according to the Washington
Star.
81 was with a party Of five and we
had a very diminutive cook-a white
man, some 35 years of age. We had
built camp in the woods, and one
evening, while sitting around the
campfire, a rough, rawboned native
of the mountains rode up on a mule
and, dismounting, asked us to join
him in a drink of 'moonshine.' We
all assented, except the little cook.
He refused, whereupon the mountain
eer became angry, and one word led
to another, until finally the native
produced from a pocket in his home
spun coat huge old-fashioned re-
volver, pushed it into the cooks face
and threatened to blow his head off.
We all felt certain that we were about
to witness the death of the cook and
were accordingly excited. The lit
tie man, however, showed not a sign
of fear, and, without the slightest
tremor in his voice, said to the native:
Put that thing away. If you tear
my clothes with it I'll kill you. The
mountain man seemed 50 astounded
and amused at this display of nerve
that his arm dropped to his side and
he forthwith replaced the gun and
shook hands with the cook. I don't
think | have heard Of such a display
of nerve, and certainly never expect
to see another"
