There was no doubt / had a bae
case of it. Ny nose was swollen ano

and felt as big as a barrel; my ears
were regular fire gong5; my eyes were

poet and his wife on Lake Hopatcong'

crisp And | knew there would be no
heat in the house save that thrown oy
the burning logs in the big open study
fireplace; for this was supposed to De

I reasoned that If / remained at

already inside the barracks. SO | de-
cided to infict mysel: upon my

After a lovely evening over Socra-
tes. Shelly and the fourth dimension.
| was even beyond blowing my nose.
To nv hostess solicitous inquiries
replied: NO, nothing; only will you
kindly let me sleep on the porch!
She looked at me meditatively Tor
a moment-probably thinking out a
suitable obituary-then produced from
the depths of window seat an assort-
ment Of comforters.
After the family had retired, | un-
dressed quickly and was soon warmly
nestled under the covers on my cot
in the open-air bedroom. / slept
warm-almost too warm. When the
April morning sun looked boldly into
nv face. | arose. donned bathlng
suit. threw the poets great coat about
me, and raced down the hill to the
lake. shut my eyes tight and
plunged in. Yes-it was cold. But
after l had come out, and had plunged
back again, i began TO get warm
When this happened, / raced back TO
the house, stirred up the backlog and
rubbed myself into a glow before the
sputtering fire.
| dressed hastily, and before the
family was astir | started on Walk
as fast as l could go through the
woods. The exhilaration crept
through my entire body, and by the
time | had returned TO the poets

German Courtesy.

The German has not only been
taught the outer courtesies. but he
has a kindness of heart and instinct
i've consideration for others which
make his formalities Of real value. The
man who appears to have fund OF
small change and valueless atten-
lions is the same man who will go
miles out of his way 10 do you favor
tomorrow"
Only a few weeks ago | was travel
ing in the same train with a young
lieutenant, whose smooth and grace
full manners had more than once
aroused my suspicion. He was got up
n his newest and finest uniform, he
had on spotless white kid gloves, he
looked, in fact, the veriest dandy.
The train vas very full, and pres
emily a peasant fellow came in with
his basket of vegetables, and looked
about helplessly. treading on every
body's toes in the meantime. l look
ed on my military neighbor. and wait
ed for the storm. The dandy rose,
saluted gravely, offered the weary
peasant his seat, and went and stood
outside This is only one example of
the many / will not cite for fear OF
being unnecessarily tiresome. !
