Desperate Warriors.

It has long been moot point whether
single or married men make the best
soldiers. Some maintain that the lack
Of wife and family tends to make a
man more reckless Of his life, therefore
a good soldier. Others say that the
married man is almost n veteran when
he enters the ranks, being in0red to
combat, therefore good soldier. A
French colonel was once questioned
upon this point. Both are right" said
he. Look yonder! Do you sec that
battalion Of happy, devil-may-care fell

they would take, their lives in their

There is proverb much heard now

hung on the same crane and inhaled

that would make the pot seem less
