. CHICKEN HEARTED MEN.
Evory One of Group Dreaded to Hear
of Some Injury.
"I could hear tho bono in his wrist
snap," said a man who was describ
ing an nccldcnt to a group of men.
"Oh, cut It out, for heaven's sake!"
called out one of tlic group, nc was n
big fellow, but ho was as white as a
sheet.
The speaker laughed Jcerlngly. "I
didn't know you were so chicken heart
ed," he said.
The big man began to explain. "I'm
not what you would call a timid sort
of person, but the mention of any In
Jury to the wrist always turns mo
faint. I can stand seeing blood flow
or hear thrilling tales of broken limbs
and smashed heads, but I can't stand
any wrist stories. I don't know the
reason. It seems to be mcroly a mat
ter of temperament."
A quiet little man came to the res
cue. "I know Just what you mean,"
he said. "You're not the only one who
has a peculiar aversion to a certain
sort of injury. Now, my particular
aversion is on account of trouble with
the eyes. Immediately I begin to
blink nnd wink and my eyes smart
until I can't stand It. I'd rather hear
nn account of a brutal murder than
any description of nn eye disease."
Tho man who had Jeered at the big
man had been thinking. "I have one
of those aversions, too, now I comqgto
think of It," ho said. "It is accounts of
paralytic shocks, to which I particular
ly object. I feel myself growing numb
nil over when I hear such talcs, nnd I
always make nn excuse to get away as
soon as possible."
Ills remark was a signal for a uni
versal confession. One acknowledged
that the sight of blood gave him a sen
sation of extreme nausea; another said
that reading or hearing of a fracture of
the skull gave him " a gone feeling nt
his stomach," and another said he
shivered so his teeth chattered every
time he heard an account of an opera
tion for appendicitis.
Tho big man was triumphant.
"Well, I'm not such a big baby after
nil," he said. New York Tribune.
FEAR IN BATTLE.
Frederick the Great Ran Away, and
Grant Was Afraid.
Some of tho greatest soldiers whose
names adorn history's pages entered
their first battles with a feeling of fear
in their hearts.
Frederick the Great simply lost his
head at the battle of Molwltz. nad
ho not been a king It Is safe to say
that he would have been shot at the
next sunrise. In the heat of tho car
nage he got an idea that the army un
der his command was being over
whelmed, so ho put the spurs to his
horse and dashed headlong among his
soldiers. He rodo many miles before
ho stopped in his wild flight. Late at
night he was discovered hiding In an
old mill, awaiting, as ho thought, cap
ture by the euemy. Then he discover
ed that the army ho deserted had won
the battle.
As Frederick was a prince, every
body tried to forget the incident Just
as quickly as possible. And after that
when tho king went to war ho was
Just ns brave as any other soldier.
'General Grant in his memoirs tells
us that, despite tho fact that ho was
not new to tho ways of war, he had a
strango fear In his heart when ns com
mander of the Union forces he found
himself on tho eve of his first battlo
of the civil war. Ho adds, however,
that he came to find that "tho other
fellow" had a similar feeling.
In American history there Is no moro
reckless warrior than the dashing Light
Horse Harry Lee. It seems strange,
therefore, to And that at tho outset of
tho Continental struggle Washington
had to reprove him for his "prudence"
in battle. Leo, though, up and told
Washington that he was Just as bravo
as the general In chief, and he made
good his word. Cleveland Plain Dealer.
All's Fair In War.
"A tenderfoot oneo visited Tin Can,"
said a westerner, "and watched with
interest tho poker play. From saloon
to saloon ho passed. Everything was
wide open and very gay and lively.
"But as be looked on at a poker
gamu that had no limit tho tenderfoot
suddenly frowned. Ho had seen tho
dealer slip himself four aces from tho
bottom of tho pack.
"Gracious powers," whispered tho
tenderfoot, excitedly clutching tho
sleevo of tho man next him, "did you
notice that?"
"Notice what?" said tho other.
"Why, that scoundrel in tho red shirt
Just dealt himself four aces."
"The other looked at tho tenderfoot
calmly.
" 'Well, wasn't It his deal?' ho said."
Washington Star.
The Sundowner.
A "swagman" or "swaggie" so
called from tho "swag" or personal
luggago wrapped up in a blanket
strapped to his back is a genuine Aus
tralian traveler in search of work, but
a "sundowner" Is the antipodean pro
fessional tramp. The sundowner
strolls from one squatter's station to
another, always taking care to arrive
at sunset, for it Is tho traditional prac
tice of Australian squatters to glvo
food and shelter to all comers for tho
night. Kansas City Independent.
Respecting Her Oath.
"Judge, will you do mo a great fa
vor?" asked tho lady who was about
to bo put upon tho stand as a witness.
"Certainly, miss. What Is It?"
"Will you please abk mo my ago be
foro I tuko tho oath?" Youkcrs States
man. Yes, money talks; but its favorite re
mork Is goodby. Indianapolis-Star.
