blade"

as l have" said the little tin sword,
still sure that he was the hero, you
would want to tell all about them
my dear little tin sword" said the
pig sword, you do not seem to under
stand that you are not d real sword az
all, but Just toy sword. The Indians
you killed were little boys dressed in
Indian costumes and played at being
killed.
Your battles were all make-b believe,
and the little boy who carried you has
grown up and is real soldier now.
But don't you mind" said the big
sword, as the tin sword began to rattle
uneasily on the wall, you were the
first sword he carried and you were
the one that taught him to honor his
country, so you have great deal for
which to be thankful.
I'VE will divide honors. You wers

THE TIN SWORD.
COPYRIGHT Nr1scUae
sfWsntetR sgnoicarLlN

Once upon a time, two swords hung
on the wall of real soldiers room
One was a large sword and had beer
in real war The other was little
tin sword which the real soldier played
with when he was little boy.
When he hung the big sword on the
wall after he came home from the war
he said: You are much larger than
this little fellow beside you, but you
have never killed Indians, and he
| has"
Although he laughed when he said
It, the little tin sword felt itself of
| great Importance, and 1t did not mind
| in the least the size of the big sword
which was many times as large as it
| was
That night, when the house was still
and dark, and the only light in the
room was from the dying embers on
| the hearth, the little sword said to the
big sword: '1s it true that you never
killed an indiana"
81 have never killed anyone" an
swered the big sword with dignity.
What is the use of being sword?'
asked the little one, ''if you never have
killed anyone. Why, have killed so
many Indians that cannot remember
how many"
81 have been in battles, too" con-
tinued the little sword, "and cut down
the enemy, and once dog was bear
and killed him, too
How could dog be bear?" asked
the big sword, taking notice of the
little sword for the first time when it
was not asked direct question.
Because the little boy said it was"
replied the little sword. And once a
cat was tiger, and we went tiger
hunting, too"
How about the Indians?" asked the
big sword; were they real or play
Indians?"
Real, of course" answered the little
sword; everything was real that we
did. The Indians wore long trousers
with feathers in the side of the legs
and band of long feathers sticking
up around their heads. You should
have heard them shout and give the
war cry"
WAS there any blood shed?" asked
the big sword, beginning to under
stand what the little sword was talk
ing about better than it did itself.
What is that?" asked the little
sword.
eff you had ever been in real battles
you would net ask?" replied the big
sword.
But you have never killed anyone
and I have" said the little sword; Il
do not see why you should say 1 have
never been in a real battle when you
have never done anything worth tell
ing of yourself"
There is a great deal to be done in
a battle besides killing" replied the
big sword. Il led the men who did the
fighting and directed them. The
general held me high above his head,
so that all the soldiers who were fol-
lowing would know where to go and
what to do, and 1 saw the enemy fall

GREAT COMPARATIVE LESSON.

DR.. ]. H. Kellogg of Battle Greek
sanatorium, in a stereoptican lecture,
pictures the decay of nations by Sc
ries of six trees dying at the top. Bull
garia has the least dead wood, repre-
senting the fact that one person In
every thousand in that country lives
to pass the 100-year mark, and not a
few live for half a century longer.
The United States comes next, but
with only one centenarian in $4,000.
Then the record grows worse and
wrose: Spain. $4,000, France 10000,
England 100000, Germany 100000 1t
is not mere accident that the nation
whose favorite drink is buttermilk
stands at the head, while the nation
which of all these countries is most
given to beer drinking is lowest In
the group.

DRINK AND DEATH RATE.

English insurance companies 1nves-
tigating the death rate of various
classes of people, have atnounced
that of 61,215 average people, 1000
die annually; of 61,215 total abstain
ers, $50 die annually; of 61,215 liquor
drinkers, 1,642 die annually, and in
other words, the death rate for the
three classes is as follow: Average
death rate, 1853 to the 1000; total alb
stainers, GA to the 1000; liquor
drinkers, 1852 to the 1000. Kansas
is conceded to be the dryest state in
the Union. The death rate there be
fore the advent of total abstainers
was II to the 1000. Now 1t is 10 to
