Text For Text.

A minister in a country town once
instituted a series of reform measures
against local political organization.
He began his political campaign, ac-
cording to Harper's Magazine, by send
ing to the chief boss of the district a
card upon which were written the num-
ber and chapter of a verse in the BIZ
BILE. When the boss and his associates
looked up the text, they found it to be
a fire breathing threat against evildO-
ers. The worst resort in the town was
a so called hotel known as The Firs,
and the minister preached hotly against
the place for two months preceding
election. The evildoers, however, not
only refused to tremble, but they won
the election.
Some months afterward, when all
was going at the lively pace of old, the
minister received a postal card which
read thus.
Dear Sir-We respectfully refer you t
the fourteenth chapter Of Isaiah, eight
verse. THE FlRS.
Upon looking up the text he was
amazed to read the following:
Yea, the fir trees rejoice at thee. ant

thou art laid down no feller is come ul

''PRIVATE
INCOG"
By ELIAS LISLE

In cot No. 10 Private IncOg tossed

member of society, to modify the some
what emphatic observation of Dulles,
the assistant surgeon in charge, had
brought the private there in specified
dump cart and fitted like an Objur-
gated googoo bird without giving a

matter, which. being further translat-
ed from the enraged dialect of an ar
my hospital into everyday English
meant that the volunteer ambulance
driver had deposited his sick charge
with no record to show who or what
or whence he was. So they labeled
him Private Incog, Company j, of the
Steenth, and gave him a place amid
the invincible confusion of an eight
hour-old impromptu hospital.

GUS to all hands that he must soon die.
1t would really have been a cOnven-
ience all around had he died soon. But
he didn't. From the wooden box on
which he lay, covered by patched up
horse blanket, he fixed upon the tent
canvas above him eyes that saw only
the phantasms of a fevered brain. His
speech roamed ungrammatically. At
times he called out lamentaOly for ice
and at times for his mother, and the
chances of his getting either were
equally bad.
In cot No. u, also a wooden box,
lay Private Reginald Sylvester of New
York. He was also smitten with fe-
yer. and, like his fellow soldier, he lay
gazing from under his horse blanket
at the sheltering canvas. But he was
not going to die. His delirium had
left him, and in his deadly weakness
he lay and lOnged very bitterly for ice
and very bitterly for his mother.
There was every prospect of his get
ting both, for Mrs. AlmOn Sylvester of
New York was abundantly able to buy
the railroad that covered the hundred
odd miles between her house and the
field camp where the fever stricken
victims of Cuban camps were being
brought as fast as transports could
bring them and stock all its cars with
whatever her only son might wish.
There was only one difficulty-the tel
egram announcing his arrival had
failed to specify in what part of camp
he might be found. Therefore at tine
end of her special train trip Mrs. Syl
vester had covered the best part of al
area of nine very up and down square
miles before she almost hOpelessl!
