thirteen aeroplanes on the western

Sacrificed His Own Life.

During the war Of the Revolution
two British soldiers of the army Of
CORVALLIS went into house and abus-
ed the inmates In a most cruel and
shameful manner. A third soldier, go
ing into the house, met them coming
out and recognized them. The inmates
acquitted him of all blame, but he was
imprisoned because he refused to dis
close the names of the offenders. Ev-
ery persuasion was tried, but In vain,
and at length he was condemned by
a court martial to die. When he was
on the gallows Lord CORVALLIS, sur
prised by his obstinacy, rode up to him,
saying: Campbell, what fool you are
to die thus! Disclose the names Of the
guilty men and you shall be immedi-
ately released; otherwise you have not
fifteen minutes to live"
"You are in the midst Of a cam
paign. my lord" replied Campbell.
you can better spare one man than
two" And, firmly adhering to his pur-
pose, he died.

Sharks as Swimmers.

One Ill service nature has done the
shark-namely, that Of placing a TRAN
gular fin on his back, which acts as
danger signal and gives warning Of his
approach. Happily the shark has not
been gifted with sufficient sagacity to
be aware of this popularity, for had
he been so he would unquestionably
abandon his habit Of swimming close
to the surface of the water and would
in that case be enabled to approach
his victim unobserved. The shark Is a
slow swimmer for his size and strength.
Byron observes, "As darts the dolphin
from the shark" But Byron was a
poet and does not appear to have been
a close observer of the habits OF in
habitants Of the water or he wouf
have known that a shark would have
no more chance Of catching a dolphin
than a sheep would Of overhauling a
hare
