HER FIRST SPEECH.
Z Wasn't the One She Learned, but
Il Won the Crowd.

4 WAsnt the One She Learned, but
Il Won the Crowd.
1t was tho first appearance In public
Of Ada G. Sweet Of Chicago, United
States commissioner Of pensions under
President Grant and one Of the first
women In the movement for equal po-
litical rights for the sexes. When the
civil war broke out she was living with
her parents In the village Of Lombard.
now a suburb of Chicago, and was
chosen TO present to the boys Of the
Lombard company silk flag which the
women OF the place had made with
their own fair hands.
The literary woman Of the village
had written for the occasion q beauti-
full presentation speech, In which the
soldiers were adjured to take the fair
flag into which your wives. daughters
and sweethearts have sewed fond hopes
and fearful prayers for your safe re-
turn. carry 1t through the smoke and
shell of battle free from the stain Of
dishonor and the rents Of defeat and
bear it home victorious ut the end Of
the war"
II thought" says Miss Sweet that
had learned that piece up and down.
backward and forward, inside and out.
but on the great day itself. when the
band ceased playing and an awful
hush fell upon the crowd and every
face was turned expectantly up to
mine, 1t was different. opened my
mouth-and paused. The literary lady
creaked forward In her chair and whis-
pered loudly. Soldiers Of Lombard
THAT whisper went through me like
knife, but left me still speeches..
set my teeth. stepped decisively for
ward and pushed the flag into the
hands Of the nearest soldier. Then
spoke. Every word Of that speech had
left me, but knew what 1t meant.
"'Soldiers Of Lombard l said in q
desperate voice that must have been
heard to the utmost confines Of the
crowd. here's your flag! Don't get II
dirty! Don't tear It! And be sure tc
bring it backv
"A shout rose from that crowd suct
! as no orator before or since has evel
evoked from crowd in those parts
The first thing knew l was riding or
the shoulders Of two soldiers, while
the whole company pressed about me
with waving hats. and my father was
leaning over toward me from the back
Of his big horse and calling me his
own original GIRL while the tear.
rolled down his cheeks with laughter
"As long as l lived In the village Of
Lombard l never dared to meet square
~ the vengeful eyes Of the literary lady
who had written that presentation
speech."-St. Louis Republic.

At last an illiterate member got up
and exclaimed:

THE ART OF GARcLINe.
Not tho Same Thing as the Process
Usually Followed.

Usually Followed.
The proper method of gargling Is
thus described by writer In the Med
ical Record:
''The patient Cat first under the guild
ance Of physician should sit we'll
back In chair. take a swallow Of wa
ter In the mouth and bend the head as
far back as possible.
"Now he must protrude the tongue
from the mouth (the tip Of the tongue
may be grasped with handkerchief)
and In this posture with protruding
tongue he must try to swallow the wa
ter. The physician should control the
patients vain efforts, for it is impossi-
BILE to swallow under such circum-
stances.
1.-THE patient has the sensation as IT
be actually had swallowed the water.
Now he must start to gargle, to exhale
air slowly. One can see plainly the
bubbling Of the fluid in the wide open
pharynx.
"After gArgling thus for awhile the
patient Is ordered to close the mouth
and quickly throw head and body for
ward. Thereby all the fluid is forced
through the choanoe and nostrils.
washing the throat and nose from be-
hind and expelling all the accumula-
lions that had been present with great
force.
This should be repeated several
times, as the first trial Is not always
successful and satisfactory. 1t Is an
act that must be learned.
when properly executed the sensa-
ton, as the patient will assure you. Is
that Of great relief not had by any
other method. 1t will be wise for the
practitioner to try the method first on
himself. Even small children who are
at all clever learn the method readily
and rather enjoy it."
