services poured in so fast from the

Miss M. D. Nesmith, who is in

con, and spoke enthusiastically about
vhat she called “a new occupation for

“The course of instruction embraces

Ied, “and is devoted to practical nurs-

VERY TALL KNEELING.
:xplained Why “Little Mack” Disobey-
ed His 0111c",- Command.
One of the ofiicers of the rebellion
:ad a private in his company whom
be boys jestingly named “Little
lack,” because of his bigness. He
was the tallest man in the company,
bout six feet three inches, and one of
he bravest in the regiment. '
On one occasion, when the men were
rdered to kneel down behind a stone
ence in preparation for an expected
ssault, the officer, who was preparing
1 surprise for the enemy, on inspect-
ing the line was astonished to see one
nrge serene face above the top of the
once. He shouted out angrily:
There 3ou—you man with the head
1p-kneel dow,n sir.” The man did
lot move 11nd again the officer thun-
iered: “Why don’t you kneel down
ll‘!"
Oblivious'to any danger and blind
o the significance of his head being
exposed, Little Mack answered: “I am
reeling down.” “Then,” shouted the
filter, “put your head down, or you’ll
eye it shot off, confound you.” There-
:pon Little Mack curled down behind
he fence, grieving because the cap-
ain had howled at him.—Chicago In-

Protection for Despots.
“It’s perfectly disgraceful,” she ex.
laimed.
‘What’s the matter?” inquired her
usband.
“Here’s a description of a woman
vho gets up in public and declares
10rse1f an anarchist.”
“Well,” was the rejoinder, “maybe
_ t’s all for the best. I believe I’d like to
es women crowd the males out of the
anarchist business. When they throw

His First Duty;
“What is the first duty of a war 'cor-

tor of one of the “new” journals. .
“To have his picture taken showing

The answer was so satisfactory that
he only duestion that remained to be
.-nswe1ed was whether he should be
out to Cuba or China.
