SHE KNEW PATRICK.
And Felt Sorry for Amy "F1Iyp1ny'
That Was Strapped to
Her Son.

Chaplain Edward Vattman, q. S. A,
recently returned to Washington from
the Philippines and relates with con-
sidera BILE humor his experience with an
elderly Irish woman whose son is num-
bered among the missing, reports the
Washington Post.
The young man, Patrick by name, a
private by rank and Washingtonian,
was captured some time ago by la
drones, and when last seen was being
taken into hemountains, strapped to
fierce-looking Filipino. Father Watt
man learned the particulars, and when
he returned to Washington called upon
the bereaved mother to break the
news. Her intuition assisted him, for
she said Immediately:
you've come to tell me of Patrick,
father"
Yes said the priest; "and my good
woman, you must remember that
Whom the Lord loveth He chasten-
eth:' In the midst of life we are in
death. but the Lord comforts the af-
fiicted-'"
eyes yes, father" interrupted Pat
rick's mother; "but tell me the news,
father, dear"
''WelI, my poor woman" said the
priest, sorrowfully, ''the last we heard
of poor Patrick he was strapped to a
Filipino and was being taken into the
mountains"
"My! my!" exclaimed the sorrowful
mother; "God have mercy upon the
poor Filypiny that's strapped to my
Pathrick!"

rise straight up through 1t, hang an
instant in midfall, and be hurled back
and killed, often, on the rocks beneath.
To-day felt a new thrill as watched
them. Something of the evident ex-
element among the fish possessed me.
l somehow knew that, as the horse
men put it: ''The track was faster to-
day'-that the swimmers were on
their mettIe, that a record would be
broken.
The falls were all a-fash and a-glit-
ter with the daring fishes. Not only
was there a great number in the con-
test; there was also much higher
average jump than usual. Over and
over again one would get within half
foot of the lip of the gate.
Soon 1 noticed that it seemed to be
a certain fish that made this highest
mark l followed her as she fell back,
and, though it was impossible through
the foam and thick rush of other forms
to keep her in sight, yet I am sure
that each time she rose 1T was with a
peculiar bound showing particularly
long, 1.-the body. And each time she
fell, peculiar good luck attended, or
else it was that her superior sense and
training served her, for each time she
landed just between or just beyond
the rocks
Again she flashed through the foam
and hung, fixed like a silver arrow in
the dark water just below the edge.
Again she fell. / was excited. Flash!
flash! flash! a score of the shining
ones shot into the falls, when over
them, above them, flashed the long,
1.-the form of the winner, striking one
of the weaker rivals beneath her just
as she reached her highest mark, and
bounding sidewise from her, glanced
over the dam and was gone.
The record was broken, and within
five minutes, by the'same curious hap,
another turned her silver side over the
great hurdle and dived into the quiet
pool beyond.
1t is rather paradoXical state of
things that creatures like these fish
hate cloudy, cold weather and rain
and will not leave the ocean willingly
for the shallow fresh waters unless
the sun shines and the wind suits and
the temperature is to their liking.
There is some reason for the chickens
staying in when it rains; but what
need have herrings of .umbrellas?-

but to-day they poured in by thousands.
The stream was clogged.
Something = their increased num-
bers and greater rivalry, perhaps-had
noticeably excited the fish. They
seemed electric with it. Perhaps this
school had been delayed by the cold
April weather, and now must reach
the pond to lay their eggs and were
in hurry. Whatever the cause they
certainly seemed to be in hurry, for
/ had never seen them scramble over
the shoals and over one another in
quite this rush before.
The unusual excitement was less
manifest in their mad rush upstream
than in their still madden rush at the
falls. On any running day few of
the stronger, holder fish, finding their
way barred by a four-foot dam, try
to climb over through the down-pour-
ing sheet Of water. The vast ma ority,
however-not unlike, l suppose, the
majority of men-coming to the i'm
possible barrier, stop in the easy pen
built for them beneath the falls, and
are content to be scooped out, for pick
ling and fishbait, most of them, though
a few are carried up in barrels to the
Epawning-ponds.
But to-day it was different. Instead
of the usual few there were many
fighting to get over. I had watched
them time and time again, but had
never seen one pass the four feet of
sheer falling water. In Wild Life Near
Home, Ihave described'how they would

sheet of water, strike it like an arrow,

Purest Of EnOIIients and

The Most Wonderful Curative
Of All Time
For TOrturing, Disfiguring

Cuticura Ointment is beyond question
the most successful curative for tortur-

scalp, including loss Of hair, ever
compounded, in proof Of which a
single amounting preceded by a hot bath
with Cuticura Soap, and followed in
the severer cases, by dose of Cuti-
cura Resclvent, is often sufficient to
afford immediate relief in the most
distressing forms of itching, burning
and scaly humours, permit rest and
sleep, and point to speedy cure when
all other remedies fail. 1t is especially
30 in the treatment of infants and chill
dren, cleansing soothing and healing
the most distressing of infantile hui
,nours, and preserving, purifying and
identifying tine skin, scalp and hair.
Cuticura Ointment possesses, at the
same time, the charm of satisfying the
simple wants of the toilet, in caring for
the skin, scalp, hair, hands and feet,
from infancy to age, far more effect
ually, agreeably and economically than
the most expensive of toilet emollients.
