'A SOLDIER BOY'S THOUGHTS.

He Had No Time for Home wnén

{SUBSTITUTION

the FRAUD ofthe dav

 

A returned army officer relates this
incident of the Santiago campaign: At
Ethe close of the first day’s siege, two offi-
cers were discussing in low tones the
exciting and tragic events of the day.
There was a lull in the conversation,
during which the lieutenant, who was
given to sentiment, bummed something
about “Just before the battle, mother.”
The captain’s eyes were moist ina mo-
ment and he turned his head away to
hide his weakness. Presently he no-
ticed a slip of a boy sitting on the
ground apparently examining his gun
in an absent-minded way.

“Pity to have such children in this
horrible business,” said the captain in
a thick voice.

f Saute Coldr “(Trapper-3 “Thinking of his mother or sweet—
~ . ‘ heart, I’ll bet you,” ventured the
RED. lieutenant. “Say, 'my boy,” he called
‘ to the youthful volunteer, with the
. evident purpose of cheering him up a

bit, “a penny for your thoughts.”

“I was thinking’ of my Mauser,” the
little fellow replied.

“There, what did I tell you,” said the
lieutenant, turning to the ' captain;
“thinking of his mother, like adutiful
son; pity he isn’t with her now; this
is no place for boys.” ~

The volunteer overheard this re-
.mark, and, springing to his feet, he sa-
luted and said: “I said I was thinking
of my Mauser, and I was—my Mauser
rrifle; I was just wondering how many
of those cussed dagos I could kill it I I
had them standing in a row.”

There was no further sympathy
wasted on the boy recruit; he was a
“first-class fightin’ man.”

“The game of golf is responsible for
I increase of almost, 200 per cent. in
ie sale of Scotch whisky in this coun-
y,” said a liquor dealer. “Scotch
hisky is as essential to a golf player
. beer to a man at a clam bake, and the

e sale of this commodity every year.
“In Scotland, where the game of golf

said tohave first been played, the
andard drink is Scotch whisky. Of
urse. the American golfers have to
110w the Scotch fashions, and Scotch
hisky and soda—a really delicious and
freshing beverage——is the favorite
, ink in the golf clubs in this country.
“In a liquor trade paper, I saw, some
me ago, some figures on this subject.
efore the game of golf became so pop-
ar in this country, the annual sale of
otch whisky here was less than 30,000
llons. It is now said to be some-
i'ng like 90,000 gallons a year. There
a well—grounded suspicion that a good
-al of this whisky is distilled right in

Perhaps the most interesting railroad
'in Pennsylvania is the Iiishcoquillas
valley, which runs from llecdville to
Belleville, a distance of nine miles,
says the Pittsburgh Post. It has con-
nection with the. Pennsylvania on the
Lewiston division and does a good busi-
ness. Its equipment consists, accord-
ing to official statement, of two engines
and four cars. Only one of the locomo-

dents of the town know that no trains

'i‘ he general manager and purchasing
:Went is J. P. Getter, a physician of
Belleville. His wife, Clara W. Getter.
is treasurer of the line. The engineer
of the locomotive in use is master me-
chanic, superintendent of motive pow-
er and several other things as well, and
it is said of him that he has an easy
time of it unless something happens to
break, when he has to work all night,
if need be, in repairing the damage.
Special trains are’frcquently run over
the line by fishing parties to some oi
,the trout streams along the-route. The
“trains” are handcars, borrowed f01

hands. The principal traffic overxthc

establishment at one of the stations.

BRUSH FOR KINDLING.

It Makes Excellent \Voofl for the
Cooking Stove and Should Be
Carefully Saved.

In pruning orchards the branches cut
out are often piled in heaps and when
dried are’ burned, often injuring the
trees in their vicinity. There is a much
better way than this. Apple, pear or
peach wood makes, when dried, a very
hot fire, and should be saved for the
stove when the branches are too large
:to cut readily. Even the twigs have
their value. They make the very best
“of kindlingslwhen dried, and if they are
somewhat crooked they are all the bet-
ter, because they will not pack closely
together as the straight sticks are pret~
ty sure to do. an old story is told of a.
farmer who once boasted among his
companions what a good, patient wife
he had. She never complained of any-
thing he did. ‘ One of them suggested
that the next time he drew up wood
for the house, he should make a load of
the crookedest sticks he could find.
He did so, and as he drew up the load
to the house his wife came out smiling
to meet him. “Mary, how do you like
3this load of wood?” was the inquiry,
zwhile the farmer’s companions stood by
expecting a storm of abuse. Instead
the reply was given in‘ the sweetest
itoncs: “Oh John! that is capital wood.
“7e always used it at home when I was
a girl, and mother used to say that the
rounded pieces made. the hottest fire
because they fitted so nicely around the

A writer in the Monthly Weather Re-

cease their music, and that this may

A rat’s tail is a wonderful thing. The
great naturalist. Cuvier says that there

part of the human anatomy which is
most admired for its ingenious struc—
ture—namely, the hand. To the rat,
in fact, its tail serves as a. sortof hand,
by means of which the animal is en-
abled to crawl along narrow ledges or
other difficult- passages, using it to bal-

keys. By means of it the little beast
can jump up heights otherwise inac-

almost instantaneous. It quickly
stopped my cough and tool; the grippe t
