UTILIZING THE GOVT.
With a Cracked Shoe.
"Every now‘and then," said s‘msu
oi moderate means. "something hap-
pens to remind me that i am Only a
novice in the art at lite. , For instance,
my shoes were wearing out. and In one
oi them there was an ugly crack in the
top. it there is one thing more dis-
turbing to me than another. it is the
eight of a shoe on one oi my ieet with
a hole in the top. But I had not the
money wherewlth to buy another pair.
and, though it may seem ridiculous. 'i
couldn't very well spare the quarter
that it would cost ior a patch, to say
nothing at the iact that a patched shoe
is little less unsightly in my eyes than
one with a hole in it.
“Walking. in this medicament. one
day, I met a iriend whose moans.”

top oi one at his trimly blacked shoes

last seen him he had apparently pros-
perd enough to have got the gout. a
iact on which i ventured to comment.
“ ‘Why. he said, ‘you may get pre-
cisely the same kind oi gout wit a
pair oi shears.’ And then he s ed.
He always was blithe and gay, no mat-
ter what betided.
"Well, when i got home i enlarged
that hole in the top o.m my shoe to the
size and heepectabiilty oi a gout open-

THE DOCTOR 1N WAR.
Stands the Test oi Courage Whenever
Under Fire.
The London Lancet has an article
about the bravery oi surgeons under
lire. The Lancet'e article is about Bru-
ish surgeons. it applies in so tar as its
anecdotes go to them, out in its general
terms. and its comments it applies to
all. We have never read of a surgeon
quelling under are or deserting his
post in a panic. and what is a great
deal more we have never heard oi a
surgeon quelling beidre a hospital or
deserting his post though yellow iever,
smallpox, typhus or cholera threaten-
ed his life and surrounded him with
its horrors. There are many well an-
tbenticated stories oi the courage and
devotion oi our army doctors in the
field and bosital. The latter is the
{ouch more trying to courage and tidal-
ty
The excitement oi battle goes far to
keep a man at his work even should he
be disinclined ior it. The long dreary
watches oi the hospital. the hard and
thankless round oi duty, the hourly
scenes oi horror and possibly the dis-
couraging absence of proper assistance
and support irom the administration at
the army are what try doctor's nerve
and test his iortltude and patriotism.
We do not know why they stand the
test so well—better apparently, on an
average. than those whose trade it is
supposed to be to {ace death and can-
ger. But the fact remains that they

iastvrooru together. hours. her hair
gathered loosely into a comb. wearing
a soiled wrapper, was tourists! on the
sofa. Bertie, in a nest‘ morning wrap-
per. with a large gingham apron. white
collar and hair smoomly brushed into
a neat knot, was washing the dishes
"There is an old man at the door
with some one laces. " said the servant;
"will you see him?"
"No." said Bertie.
“Yes,” said Laura; "send him up."
in a tow minutes the old man came
in. lie was poorly clad. His hair was
white, with beard and mustache oi the
same bus. linking a low bow, he
placed tho basket he carried on‘ thet
table and opened It.
‘i have some line laces here," be
said. taking some trim the basket.
"that will Just suit‘you. miss." and he
held them beiorc'Bcrtie.
"it is my sister who wished to look
at your laces." said Bertie. quietly.
“Yes; bring them here." was Laura's
imperious command.
The old mans eyes followed Bertie
as she washed, wiped and put away
the dishes, swept the room and dusted
it and then sat down beside Laura. who
was still looking over the basket.
"See. Bertie. this lace is just what l
want. Will it not look lovely on my
new silk dress?"
"But." whispered Bertie, "you can't
aiiord it Just now. "
“'Yes. i can. Father gave me some
money yesterday.
But that was to pay the last dril-
goods bill."
"Nonsense. 'That will stand till 1
am married, and then i can easily save
it out oi my housekeeping money.’
"i should not wish to marry in debt,"
said Bertie.
The old man looked earnestly at the
sisters.
Laura had’ chosen three pieces, and
:said she would take them.
"But, sister, you cannot aiiord it."
"Yes. i can. Eustis Ford is rich."
The old man bit lips.
"Think." said Bertie in a low tone.
"ii you love him how much it will
grieve him he should discover this
deceit." '
”Well, i can call again ior the
money." said the peddler.
"Yes; call again," said Laura.
So the peddler took up his basket
walked home, threw oi! his disguise.
and wrote an offer oi his hand and
heart to Miss Bertie Batemsn, which
was accepted.
Laura has two sources oi proiound

The other. “i wonder why the old man
