A sergeant, a corporal and IA men OF
the Twelfth regiment Of the line had
been sent out to occupy a house on the
main highway. They would be at
least half OF a mile in advance OF any
other picket OF their own people.
Sergean. Morton was deeply angry
at being sent on this duty. He said
that he was overworked. There were
Ut least two sergeants, he claimed fu-
riously, whose turn 1t should have
been to 60 on this arduous mission.
He was treated unfairly; he was abused
by his superiors; why did any fool ever
Join the army; as for him he would
get out o. it as soon as possible; he
was sick of it; the life of dog. All
this he said to the corporal. who lis
tened attentively, giving grunts OF re-
spectful assent.
On the way to this post, two pr1vates
took occasion to drop casually to the
rear and piifer in the orchard Of a de-
serted plantation. When the sergeant
discovered this absence, he grew black
with rage which was an accumula-
ton of all his irritations.
Run, you!" he howled. Bring them
here! I'll show them" A private
ran swiftly to the rear. The remainder
of the squad began to shout rervously
at the two delinquents, whose figures
they could see in the deep shade OF the
orchard, hurriedly picking fruit from
the ground and cramming 1t within
their shirts, next to their skins. The
beseechiag cries OF their comrades
stirred the criminals more than did the
barking ct the sergeant. They ran to
rejoin the squad, while holding their
loaded bosoms and with their mouths
open with aggrieved explanations.
: A moment later the squad moved on
toward its station. Behind the SER
geant's back Jones and Patterson were
slyly passing apples and pears to their
friends, while the sergeant expounded
eloquen:ly to the corporal. "You see
what kind OF men are in the army

1t was very different thing. can tell

Ink for Fountain Pen.

Do not use ordinary writing ink IN
your fountain pen as it will corrode
and render your pen useless unless
cleaned very often. Take an old
typewriter ribbon, turn over it a pint
of hot water and let it stand a day or
so, stirring frequently. Turn the ink
thus made into a bottle, cork securely,
and you have an ink which will flow
freely, and not corrode your pen. II
the typewriter ribbon had considerable
ink on it you can thin your ink by
adding more water after the first pint
is made.
