Which humor of the finest and
most delicious sort played the
leading part? Did you ever
tackle a tale which made you
gasp by the originality of its
ideas? Did you y meet some
utterly impossible persons who
never lived and never could have
lived and whom you might meet
any day of your life?
They're here, right here in this
story. They have the most i'm
possible adventures and get into
the most impossible situations,
just as you or 1 might any day
if the stage we're set just right

How Frostbite Comes.

The first effect of cold on the skin Is
to contract the tiny vessels that connect
arteries and veins. Arteries are YES
sells that take blood from the heart.
Veins are those that bring blood back
to the heart. and the connecting ves-
sells are called capillaries. While these
little vessels are contracting the skin
itself becomes tenser. In a few mo-
ments or minutes the effects change.
The tiny nerves whose stimulation
caused contraction Of the c~apillar1es
are more or less paralyzed, and the YES
gels dilate so the skin gets red. Soon
the veins are dilated. and the skin be-
comes blush. Then the nutrient fluid
in the skin (the LYMPH is coagulated.
and the stretched skin ruptures or
''chaps." If the cold is more severe Its
action is deeper. and the blood itself
may be coagulated. This is frostbite.

GREEK STRATAGEM.

Military Tactics That Won Where
Strength Was Lacking.
After the decline Of Rome the center
of the worlds military progress was
for seven or eight centuries transferred
to the Greek empire. Constantinople
ruled elements of a much less homo
generous nature than Rome in her
prime had depended upon. There was
less loyalty to the central rule there
and far less liberty under it.
The decisive military fact Of the east
was. however, that Byzantium had to
contend against overwhelming numeri-
cal superiority in its enemies. South
of it, from the Indies to the Atlantic,
was the Saracen empire, burning with
the zeal Of a new religion. 10 the east
were the Seljuk Turks, while to the
north were the Bulgarians and the
S%lavonian ana Hunic tribes.
Against such odds it was useless SIM
ply to match man for man. The mill
tary leaders of the empire We're full
of military spirit and took keen delight
in war as a game, but they were the
descendants of Ulysses, and they made
of war a game of finesse, Of cleverness
in short, a war Of wits. BY their spy
ing and brides, by stirring up treason
in the enemy's camp, by surprises, sim
ulated retreats and ambush, they H.

SAVED THE COL0RS.
A Hero Who Was Buried Wrapped In
His Flag by the Enemy.

His Flag by the Enemy.
During the Austro-Prussian war a
body of Prussian soldiers came upon a
ditch half full of wounded and dying
Austrians. Among those who were
badly wounded was a young officer.
They found him lying on his back in
the wet ditch. Touched with pity for
him, some Of the Prtssians went to
him and wished to remove him so that
he might be attended to by tie sur
geon. But be besought them . leave
him alone, telling them that be felt
quite comfortable. Soon after this he
died. Then when they lifted his body
they found why he had begged them
to leave him alone. He had been the
standard bearer for his regiment.
In the terrible battle of the day the
flag, had been torn into t~atters. and
when he was sore wounded so that he
sOon must die his soldier spirit was
still strong within him. and rather
than let the 'bit of rag" fall into the
enemy's hand he folded it up and
placed it beneath him so that none
might see it. This was why he would
not let himself be moved by the kind
ly Prussian soldiers. He would die
protecting the precious flag.
His foes were so touched by his no
BILE action that they would not take
away the trophy. but wrapped it
around him that it might be buried
with him.
