Two Famous Playfeiiows.

When General Sherman was a small
boy one of his intimate playfellows was
James, c. Blaine. says the Lippincotts
MAGAZINE. The two boys. together with
Hoyt, younger brother of the general
were out driving one day. when, rs
they passed flag waving in the
breeze. Jimmie" Blaine placed a
thumb on the tip Of his nose and
made very (lisrespectful gesture to.
ward the banner.
Did you mean to do that at the
flag" demanded "Cumpie', Sherman,
his loyalty outraged.
Yes. 1 did," declared Jimmie,
stoutly.
We'll, if you do it again, I'll pn'
you out"
Nothing more was said and the drive
proceeded enjoyably. On the WIZ
home the flag was passed again and
and again Jimmie Blaine put has
thumb to the tip of his nose and SO
forth.
Cumpie reined In the horse, took the
struggling Jimmie and gently but firm
" lifted him out of the wagon. Then,
in spite of Hoyt's remonstrance that
that was not the proper way to treat a
guest, he drove off, leaving Jimmie tc
tramp the ten miles home as best as be
might
