Little Sam had always looked up, or
rather down, to his cousin with Il great
deaf Of respect. and, thus encouraged,
he was one of the first to enlist when
the call for colunteers came and jour
neyed to the nearest city for the pur-
pose.
Immediately afterward he was per-
mitted to go home 10 arrange his af
fairs, and while there happened TO
meet Major Bullard. The veteran re
garded him in stern, disappearing 81

This set Little Sam to troubling

One Virtue Lacking.

I'VE have had our troubles over the
servant girl problem. the same as the
rest of the world" said the Pitts
burger, land whenever a new one
comes to us we hope for week or
two that we have found the lost jewel.
A month ago, when we made a
change, the new girl took hold so well
that there was not one single fault to
be found. My wife was naturally
more enthusiastic than / was, and at
the end Of fortnight she wanted me
to admit that the priz0 had been dis
covered at last She said that the
girl was tidy, respectful, truthful and
industrious. and the only thing
could think of In reply was to hope
that she wouldn't turn out to be a
thief.
That Is shame and a slanderp
exclaimed my wife. I'll test her to-
morrow, and I'll wager any money
she'll come out pure gold
"She tested by leaving four diamond
rings on the dresser while she went
shopping, and when came home at
night my wife was In tears. The girl
had taken the rings and sloped. re-
marked that the test could have been
made just as we'll with one ring, or
even dollar bill. but up to the pres.
ent time the words have not given her
any comfort, and we have had no
trace of the girl"

HORSES TAUGHT TO SWIM.
They Are Put Through Regular
Course of Instruction in the
British Army.

The British army at its Aldershot
training camp maintains a swimming
school for horses. where a good deal OF
attention is paid to this branch of their
education before they are finally fitted
for cavalry service. Horses are "en-
listed" on reaching their third year.
but it is generally two years more be-
fore they are taken for their first swim
ming lesson. The veterinary officer
and riding master Of the regiment super
wise the work, and only experienced
men are allowed to assist.
The great thing is not to force or
alarm the horse during his training,
but rather to lead him by easy stages
to enter the water quickly. fearlessly
and as noiselessly as possible. If terri
fed at the start, the horse would be like
" to fight shy of deep water ever after.
So on the first day the man who has
charge of the horse walks his pupil
about on the edge Of the water. just per-
hitting him to wet his hoofs and fet-
locks. The next day the horse is intro
duced a little farther into the water,
perhaps up to his body. and allowed to
splash round as he pleases. In this way
the horse is gradually taken farther and
farther in. until at length he loses his
footing and starts swimming quite nat
uraIly. the man in charge swimming by
his side to give him greater confidence.
Then the horse is taught to swim in
company with others. beside a boat.
by way Of training him to cross rivers
with his regiment en- masse. The horses
are divested Of all saddlery but head
collars and head ropes. The men Of each
troop get into a boat, and by means Of
the headropes bring their horses into
the water alongside Then the boat is
hauled across the river by a rope
manned from the opposite side. and the
horses necessarily follow.
At times the horses are exercised in
bearing their riders across on their
backs. The horse wears only the head
collar and bridoon. and the rider strips
bmself and throws his legs up along
the horses fanks 50 as not 10 impede the
animals movements. AS the hor9e rat
urally swims very low in the water, tie
riders weight pushes him down until
only. his head is above the surface. But
the animal soon gets over the rueasi-
ness this causes him at first Then the
horses tuition Is complete and be Is
classed in his regiment as proficient"
He has. IN fact. passed bis "exmm. as

An Iowa woman who was cleaning
house one day accidentally knocked out
a brick and some mortar from the side
of a little used room. In doing so she

them climbed up the outside Of the
house and removed some of the wealth
