in Mexico for years and usually
knows what he is talking about:
"A group of humble women passed
us on their way across the square to
the great church. They would soon
be saying their prayers in that temple
of superstition; they would find there
the God the agnostics say we can
know nothing of; the unllnowable
would be known to them, these un-
learned, sweet-minded, loving women.
Life to them is not problem, but a
slowly guiding romance of the heart,
an inspiration heavenward, a time for
faith and hope.
"1n neighboring village mellow

poor, backward, barbaric Mexico
there is faith and Il belief, deep and
sure, in Christianity"

Sherldan's Fish Story.

Contrary to expectation, consider
ing what he had been through, Sheri-
dan possessed a voice as sweet and
musical as that of a woman, says
John G. Linehan in February Dona-
hoes. On my mentioning this to
him, he smiled and said that was
about the first remark made by par
ties presented to him, and added: II
suppose they expected to find man
tall as steeple, as heavy as an ele-
plant, and with voice like a fog
horn" AS evidence of this he said:
"When was stationed in Chicago,
before taking command Of the army
it was my custom annually to take
a hunting and fishing tour in Wis
consin. Several of my staff accom-
panied me. We took our camp equip
age with us, locating at intervals
along the banks of river or creek
wherever the fishing was good. One
morning 1 awoke at daybreak and
found it was ideal weather to cast 4
hook, there was heavy mist with
an occasional rain-drop. got up,
slipped on my clothes, took my rod
and bait, and started to fish up the
creek. The grass on the banks was
heavy, fit for the scythe, and as
trudged along I found 1 left quite 4
trail behind me. AS I noticed this
said to myself, "if the owner Of
this field gets sight Of me I will get
a Scotch blessing Just as this
thought occurred to me, as L was

should I meet face to face but a man
who, Judging by his looks and &C
tons, was the individual in question.
I had on an old blouse, SLOUGH hat,
and high boots, not making in con-
sequence a very presentable appear
ance. I had in my pocket a nice
flask of brandy which had not been
tapped. He wore an old straw hat
with Tapping sides, had scythe on
his shoulder. and deep scowl on his
face. AS I approached him I said:
"Good morning, uncle. It is kind of
damp, wouldn't you like something
to warm you?" at the same time un-
screwing the cork, and handing him
the bottle. He took it, looking me all
over from hat to boots, put it to his
mouth, and took good swig. He did
not get the flavor until he had taken
it from his lips. Holding the bottle
in. his hand he looked at it wistfullv.
All right, uncle said, If you like
it take drink He repeated the
act, and when the bottle left his
mouth this time full half of the co,
tents had disappeared. AS he handed
it back he asked: who may I thank
for this?' In Chicago said I, am
known as General Sheridan
