courage him in the belief of complete
restoration, they did hold out hope of
Improvement. 1t was while the doc
tors were giving close attention TO this
most peculiar case that there came
the sound of war. Russia and Japan
were in a fierce controversy over the
future control of the seacoast line be
tween Port Arthur and NladivostolI,
and all the indications pointed toward
a resort to arms Finally, the era Sh
came, and the newspapers overflowed
with accounts of the initial conflicts.
There were oriental names of battle
ships and their commanders, while on
the other side were numerous Slavonic
designations
While still suffering from the results
of the South African conflict the local
educator began a careful reading of
every line concerning this giant con-
test. While the Japanese names were
fairly well mastered, he found himself
lost in attempting to give an English
equivalent to the confused aggregat ton
of letters that stood for the Russian
vesselsh their officers and the places of
interest.
In discussing the progress of this
most horrible OF modern wars, he earn
estly endeavored to give a correct pro-
nunciation to all the distracting proper
names contained i'm the dispatches, his
efforts meeting with the closest atten-
ton from his small circle of interested
listeners They noticed with consider
able anxiety. however, that his en-

with the rapidly occurring events IN
the far east was still further aggravat-
ing the trouble he had already suffered
in the case of the two preceding wars
A large lump had appeared just above
the point where the under jaw locks
strain on the bone structure. The dis
figuration was quite pronounced and
had the appearance of having come to
stay for all time. Finally his back
teeth began TO work loose, and one OF
them actually dropped out when he
was reading the list of high military
officers who surrendered at Port Ar
thur.
Then followed a severe attack of tom
silitis, accompanied by a sensation OF
having swallowed an ounce OF very fine
red pepper. AS the war went on, dag
Onal wrinkles appeared along the en-
tire front of his forehead and there
were pronounced undulaIing ridges
across each cheek He had also become
crOss-eyed and there was a twist in his
mouth as if automatically contorted-
Hardly a shadow of the old outline re-
manned, and it is confidently claimed
that if there had not been a partial
cessation of war news the wear and
tear would have been so great that Sc
riOus consequences would have fol-
lowed

more graphically than words just what
took place during the progress of the
facial evolution

deep interest in this contest and, as
he was the center of the conversational
sessions which were held each evening
at the corner grocery store, he took
particular pains to keep himself well
informed concerning all the details of
that brief conflict. He was unfamiliar
with the Spanish language, the only
words of that tongue he ever had seen
being the names on the boxes of al
legged Havana cigars. He went at his
task StudiOuSly, and in endeaVOring to
master the correct pronunciation of the
localities given in the war dispatches
he wrenched several muscles of his
face, and after the close of the conflict
his persistent attempts to get at the
real Spanish articulation left his face
in the condition above represented. He
felt, however, that he had done a COM

his best to get his face back to normal
