Sex in Handwriting,

1t is a curious fact that one OF the
only things which even an expert
graphologist does not guarantee to dis
cover in handwriting is the sex OF
the writer. We are accustomed to
think that the feminine or masculine
temperament will readily betray 1t.

majority of cases such is not the case

An interesting little experiment
proving this theory can be made in
this way. Take twelve or twenty en-

Not Passenger from Jersey City

1t cost the Pennsylvania railroad
and the Pullman Palace Car Company
S1o5 ON Christmas day to run q train
without any passengers from Jersey
City to Pittsburg. The train, the
Pennsylvania limited, one of the finest
on the road, consisted of an engine,
baggage car. diner and three coaches
when it pulled out of Jersey City at
IL: "a n. IN. on Monday, and when 1t
reached Pittsburg at :35 o'clock that
night, the only passengers it carried
were the three changes of Pennsylvania
crews and the regular Pullman crew.
The run was strictly according to
schedule, but not ticket was punched,
not meal was served or n piece of
baggage handled. Nobody worked but
the engineers and fircmen.
Three cooks basted fowls and created
good things in the culinary line for
four walters to serve the passengers
who didn't come. A barber waited in
vain for "Next!" and the Pullman con-
uuctor hau plenty OF time to admire
his new uniform. All this cost the

MY little son, when about year
and half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. Il had a ply
sician trent him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come on
his arms, then on other parts OF his
body. and then one came on his chest,
worse than the others. Then 1 called
another physician. Still he grew worse.
At the end of about year and a half
of suffering he grew SO bad 1 had to
tie his hands in cloths at night to keep
him from scratching the sores and tear
ing the flesh. He got to be a mere
skeleton, and was hardly able to walk.

the fixity Of those eyes. which seemed
to contemplate her from beyond the
grave. She whispered In her broth
er's ear to Inquire about the state
Of the strangers wound, and seemed
freed from anxiety on hearing that
there was hope.
The days passed rapidly and Louis

face radiant with Joy. In her hand
she carried carefully little packet
wrapped in tissue-paper. She also
kept her word. Her marvellous piece
of lace was completed, and she wish
ed her brother to see 1t before taking
1t to her employer. In her happi-
ness at being able to remove her
brother, she quite forgot the poor
wounded stranger, who was now
watching her with terminated eyes.
"Is 1t not, lovely?" she exclaimed,
laying the delicate masterpiece of
which she was so proud on her
brothers bed; her pride, however,
was not due to the difficulties she
had conquered, but to the fact that
she would now be able to take her
brother to their home, to which hap.
piness would thus be restored. They
were both happy as, with clasped
hands, they examined the delicate
fabric, giving no attention to the
stranger. who, being uneasy on ac.
count of this behavior, raised himself
partially in his bed.
In moving, the count displaced the
bandages on his wound, and stream
of blood gushed forth and inundated
the bed. Hearing the cry Of the suf-
ferer, the doctor appeared and laid
the horrible wound bare.
Quick! Quick!" he shouted. Some
lint! Quick!"
While the distracted nurses were
looking everywhere the blood still
flowed, and the anxious doctor reiter.
ated his commands.
Brother and sister, motionless, pale
with terror, exchanged single
glance. Noemi tore her beautiful lace
to pieces and handed it to the doc
tor, who applied 1t to the wound;
the hemorrhage was checked.

Louis could say no more.

How Logan Saved the Day.

Illinois has had many illustrious
sons who in the hour of danger have
done her honor. Conspicuous among
them is John Alexander Logan. Where
now stands the aourlshing city of
Murphysboro, in q comfortable farm
house, John A. Logan was born Feb
ruary 0, 1926.
His father, a prosperous physician,
gave him a liberal education with a
private tutor, and a course at Shiloh
College and the Louisville Law
School.
John was a natural leader and al
ways had crowd Of admiring satel-
lites ready to follow him in his daring
adventures, and whether it was work,
play or study that engaged him, he en-
tered into 1t with all the energy of his
impetuous nature, writes Austin Cook.
His experience in the Mexican war,
which he entered when 1S. coming out
lieutenant, furnished his entire mill
tary education, prior to the rebellion.
In 1860, when our country was shak-
en- to its very foundations by impend-
ing war, Logan held his seat in Con-
gress by the almost unanimous vote
of the Democrats of a southern ILL
nois district.
AS time went on he saw that he
must either give up his party or his
for the Union.
When the troops were marching oNt
Of Washington to meet the enemy in
the eventful July Of 1861, Logan left
his seat in the House, seized a musket
and, without taking time to change his
silk hat, took his place in the ranks
and fought as a common soldier during
the terrible battle Of Bull Run.
He then returned to Washington, re-
signed his position and hastened home
to raise troops.
1t was not an easy thing to return
to his political constituency. who were
all bitterly incensed against him, feel
ing that he had betrayed and deserted
them, but in doing what he knew was
right he never faltered.
The people had worked themselves
into perfect fury of Indignation.
Those whom he had considered his
best friends turned from him without
speaking, and even his relations re-
pulsed and upbraided him. Many of
the men, made furious by drink, swore
vengeance upon the man who, short
time before, had been their idol.
Logan's danger was imminent I.
was one OF the crucial moments of his
life. He stood calmly before them
without shadow of fear and urged
that they would at least hear him
speak.
Mounting an old wagon, he poured
forth stream Of eloquence.
He pictured their present prosperous
condition, and what it would be if
their homes were made the scene of
bloody battles. Gradually their faces
softened, the hands upon their revolv-
ers relaxed, and before he had finished
speaking they were ready to follow
the call Of their intrepid leader. HIS
personal influence had won the day
and southern Illinois was saved to the
Union
