He wil alkiys be remembered for his “Man Without & Country.™) I was in the civil service at Rich- mond. Why I was there, or what I did, is nobody's affair. And I do not propose to tell how it happened that I was in New York in October, 1864, on confidential business. Enough that 1 was there, and that it was honest business. That business done, as far as it could be with the resources in- trusted to me, I prepared to return home. And thereby hangs this tale, and, as it proved, the fate of the Con- federacy. For, of course, I wanted to take presents home to my family. Very little question was there what these presents should be—for I had no boys nor brothers. The women of the Con- federacy had one want, which overtop- | ped all others. They could make coffee out of beans; pins they had from Columbus; straw hats they braided quite well with their own fair hands; snuff we could get better than you could in “the old concern.” But we had no hoopskirts—skeletons, we used to call them. No ingenuity had made them. No bountles had forced them. The consequence was that people’s crinoline collapsed faster than the Confederacy did. So I took back several skeletons, of varying degrees of excellence—for my wife, two; for Sarah and Susy, each one; for Aunt Eunice and Aunt Clara, two each; for my mother, two; for Mamma Chloe and Mamma Jane, each one. I put these, tied in the shapes of figure eights, in the bottom of my trunk. So I was received at home with rapture. Then I was up in the closet one day, when, as I stepped along in the dark, my foot caught up a bit of wire, and I fell—and fainted away. When I came to it was hours later—and I had a broken leg. Six weeks must I stay in bed! And I had in my coat pocket duplicate despatches which should have gone at 10 that morning to Wilmington by special messenger. That cost the Confederacy 83,211 muskets, which, as it was, never left Belgium. What was that bit of wire? Julia cried her eyes out about it. It was an old skeleton—she brought down seven discarded hoopskirt frames and asked me what she should do with them. You can't burn them. If you bury them, they are up with the second raking. If you give them to the ser- vants, they say. “Thank you” and throw them in the back passage. So Julia had put them in the closet. 1 told Julia it was no fault of hers. I told her to make a parcel of the things, and I would hove the whole mass into the river the first time I went to drive. I came home one day to find the house in an uproar. George Schaff, special horseman, carrying orders vital 1% the success of that day's.military operations, had been thrown from his horse when taking a skort cut across my back yard! His horse had stumbled over a bit of wire—the poor creature had tangled his legs in one of those infernal hoop-wires that Chloe had thrown out when I had given her the new ones.

A mean trick, and a ! Yankee one, but I could not blame | them. Next day I found a handsome brown paper parcel, which the youngsters had left on my office table, marked, “Secret Service.” They had a great frolic over it. They had not spared red tape nor red wax. Of course, it was skeletons they wished me to dispose of, but I forgot it, and it was left there. ‘That night I learned what upset our grand naval attack, the day the Yan- | kee gunboats skittied down the river so handsomely. The ram blew off steam, and no water could be got in her boiler. They had to wait for them to cool off, and worked all night. The pumps had sucked in, somehow, a long string of yarn and cloth, and, if you will be- lieve me, a wire of some woman’s crin- oline—one of those "discarded hoop- skirts. That cut short victory of the Confederate Navy. never told any one what I had thrown into the water myself soon after my recovery. Also, I decided to leave the secret serv- ice parcel in my office. Then came the days of decline and defeat. I burned what I ought to burn. And in cleaning up my office I came across a parcel of maps that should have been called for by a messenger and delivered to President Davis to help him in his escape. I learned from Julia that the messenger had come and taken a parcel—marked secret service. What was it that was taken to the President? As I live, we had sent the girl's old hoops to the President in his flight! And when the next day we read how he used them, and how Pritchard ar- rested him, disguised as a woman, we thought if he had only had the right parcel he would have found the way to Florida. ‘That is really the end of this memoir. But I should not have written it, but for something that happened just now— the war is over, and it is all past and done with, but I met one of the big papermen—our treasury had used tons of their paper in printing bonds and bank notes. ¥ “Richards,” said one, “what became of that last order of ours for water- lined, pure linen government calender- ed paper of surety? We never got it and I never knew why.” For the loss of that paper, it seems, the bottom dropped out of the treasury, On that paper was to have been printed our new issue of 10 per cent—the print- ers were ready for nearly a month wait- ing for that paper.

You would not believe it, but a little piece of wire had passed in from some hoopskirt, passed the nickers. passed the screens, through all the troughs, up and down through what we call the lacerators, and had got itself wrought in, where it was a knife by that time, and had been cut- ting to picces the endless wire web every time the machine was started.

I thought I would warn other women by writing down the story.

NCY PAGE Peter and Naney Celebrate This was the third anniversary of Nancy's and Peter’s wedding. Last year they had entertained a group of friends, but this year they decided to celebrate all by themselves. They had Peter Jun- ior, who was now almost 4 months old. He was so adorable when Nancy lifted him up to greet Peter. Nancy had taken time to get Peter a new walking stick of malacca. Being English, he never felt at ease on the'street without | his walking stick. And Nancy said she always felt so swanky when Peter and she and his cane went out walking. She planned an especially good din- ner, one which she knew she and Peter would both enjoy. When she and Peter were talking over the anniversary he had asked her what she wanted. She said, “A washing machine. There is so much laundry with all your son Peter’s clothes.” Peter had demurred. “I'll get the machine, but not as an an- niversary gift. 1 don’t believe in that kind of present. That's something utilitarian. I want to give you some- thing for yourself alone.” And he did. His gift was twofold, a necklace of the new flat pearls and a most beautiful silver toilet set. He had been .extrava- gant, but he told Nancy business was good. “And, anyway,” he added, “you are worth everything 1 can get for you, and more.” Nice, appreciative Peter.

DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX Sage Advice to the Educated Woman Who Would Marry a Stupid Man—The Greatest Mis- take People Make in Love. | I)EAR MISS DIX: Can an educated, ambitious woman be happy married to an uneducated man with no ambition? I have been going with a young man of fine character, but who has not even a fourth-grade education. He can hardly read and write, he doesn't read much, owing to his limited education, and he is a poor conversationalist. He has no trade or special ability and, therefore, no steady work. I have tried in every way to get him to go to night school, but he refuses to do so. For myself, I have a high school education only, and after leaving school I secured a position as an ordinary typist and switchboard operator. But I have studied and improved m_vul(l until n?‘t’hl am mnrhlr[e of a depart- ent in the office and private secretary to one of e executives. s Do you think llnwo?lld be advisable for me to marry this man? ADELINE. Answer: No. T think you would both be miserable. A marriage may be happy and successful in which the husband is superior to the wife, but never if Very often an educated and ambitious man will marry «an ignorant and inert woman and seemingly be content with her. Apparentiy he will not even notice her lapses in grammar or that she sits up silent and tongue-tied when other people discuss topics of the day or things that they have read In books and magazines. But it sears a woman'’s very soul with shame if her husband is not able to hold his own with other men and shows himself ignorant and stupid. To her his blunders are worse than crimes and she could forgive him more readily for a misdeed than for a misspelled word. There is this great fundamental difference between a man and a woman: A man likes to look down on the woman he loves. He would always prefer his wife to be smaller and weaker in body than he is, and to know less, so that he may be an oracle to her, and that is why intelligent men often marry morons and live happily with them. But & woman must look up to the man she loves. She must respect him and admire him, and this she can never do if she knows more than he does and has to be continually trying to correct him. 1t is worse still when the wife is the ambitious one, when she is the driving one, with strength and energy, who wants to get along, and the husband is lazy and shiftless and purposeless, content to live any old way so Jong as it does not call for his making any especial effort. ‘That sort of a husband drives an energetic woman frantic because she is forever trying to do the thing that can't be done, to put her own brains into his head, her own pep into his pepless soul, her own backbone jnto his spineless, jellyfish body. And because he is weak and flabby while she is strong and vital, because the gray mare is the better horse, she comes to despise him and to have only a pitying, contemptuous affection for him that is far and away from the sort of love that & woman wants to feel for a husband. And no nfan long loves the wife who is a goad in his side, who nails him to the work he hates, who pushes him on to make the effort that he loathes making. Moreover, a man's vanity demands that his wife shall admire him, and when he finds out that he has a critic instead of a claque, he almost invariably forsakes her for some woman who will tell him how great and wonderful he is instead of how far he falls short of what he should be. So I think that a woman who is such a hustler as you should marry a man who is a go-getter. Leave your unambitious friend to find a wife who knows no more than he does and who will be content to stay in the sphere of life in which it has pleased heaven to call her. i EEee DOROTHY DIX. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: My friends and I have been debating this question: What is love's greatest mistake? f ‘What do you think? F. O. B. Answer: I think love's greatest mistake is selfishness. Trying to monopolize the beloved one. Trying to be all-in-all to some one and shut out every other interest and affection. Very few people in love ever really consider the happiness of the one they love. They are concerned only with their own. They would bind the one they loved to them without asking whether he or she would prefer some other place. If they enjoy the society of some one they do not stop to consider the fact that they may bore that one. If some one satisfies them they never question whether they also are enough for that other one. A young man who loves a girl will marry her even though he knows that he is dragging her down to poverty and want. A wife who loves her husband will cling to him even though she knows that he is tired of her and that she bores him to extinction. A mother whe loves her child will often wreck its prospects in life to keep it with her. Very few people are capable of a love great enough to put another be! themselves. g DOROTHY DIX, EAR DOROTHY DIX: I am engaged to a very fine young man who has only one defect. He has an ungovernable temper and gets angry enough over a trifle to strike me. Do you think it is jealousy that makes him behave s0, so that after we are married and he is sure of me his temper will change? I love him, but I am afraid. UNHAPPY MARY. Answer: You do well to be afraid, Mary, of a man with an ungovernable temper and you will be lucky if you are so afraid of a future with him that you pass it up. fore For of all faults that a man can have, none is worse than for him to be bad-tempered, and if he gets into rages now in which he strikes you, after marriage he will beat you up whenever his black devil drives him into working off his fury on some defenseless object. Don't delude yourself into thinking that after marriage, when he is sure of you, his jealousy will be appeased. Th2 very essence of jealousy is suspicion. It never trusts anybody or anything. It feeds upon its own evil imagination and believes the worst of everybody and everything. The thing that a wife's happiness depends upon is her husband’s disposition. It is what she has to live with every day of the year, and there is no peace or | joy in life for her if she has to go in trembling fear lest she do or say somethin; that will \aend her husband into a rage and cause him to hurl lnsultsy“ her. ¥ Don’t mar head don't max ‘woman-beater, high-tempered fl;ll’l. and if you have a grain of sense in your a cowardly bully who has already shown you that he is a you do you deserve exactly what you will get.

Mrs. Roberts left the city, giving her neighbor several articles, including a washing machine. The neighbor, Mrs Bailey, did not know that her kindly neighbor had made just one small pay- ment on the machine. The washing machine agent, learning what occurred, filed a replevin suit against Mrs. Bailey to recover possession of the machine. “At the hearing, Mrs Bailey did not dispute the facts, but stated that the suit was unnecessary, as she would have returned the machine if a demand had been made for it. For this reason, she contended, the costs which amounted to $30, should be borne by the washing machine com- pany - The court agreed with her conten- tion and assessing the costs on the com- pany, stated: “A demand is necessary L) replevin to afford the defendant an opportunity to restore the goods to the rightful owner In all cases where a party is in posses- sion of the goods of another the law presumes that he will at once deliver them to the owner upon request; and this presumpticn is so strong that it will not allow such possessor to be put to the expense of defending a suit until the opporiunity has been offered him to save costs and avoid litigation by surrender.” Home in Good Taste BY SARA HILAND.

I A Sermon for Today BY REV. JOHN R. GUNN. Gospel of Service. Text: “I will show thee my faith by my works."—James 2:18. Christianity presents a gospel of serv- ice as well as a gospel of faith. It is not enough that Christians be believers, they must be doers. This was what the apostle James had in mind when he said: “Show me thy faith without thy works and I will show thee my faith by my works.” “My Father worked hitherto and I work,” is one of the recorded utterances of the founder of Christianity. The most graphic pen picture ever drawn of the earthly life of Christ was the brief sentence, “He went about doing good.’ Both by example and precept he taught that the chief end of life was to serve. He gave His disciples tasks to perform, not simply ideals. He made himself a servant and taught that all who would be His followers must make themselves servants. His whole system of teach- has other values and other interests. To emphasize the importance of service is by no means to discount other values. To say that service is the chief pur- pose of life is not to imply that life has no other interests. Other values and interests exist, but service is vitally related to all of them. Churist's teaching as to the plan of life makes this plain. He teaches that all life's values and in- terests are conserved through service. This was the meaning of his state- ment when he said, “He that loseth his life shall find it.” It is through sacrificial service to others that we get the most out of life for ourselves. Thus service becomes a veritable gospel. (Copyright, 1928. Cranberry Muffins. Break one egg into & mixing bowl and beat it lightly. Add three-fourths cup- ful of milk.

There is certainly something o1 interest to human psy- chology in observing how men react to’ such ccmpletely altered circum- stances. Large and violent shifts in adjustment bring out unused capaci- ties and unexpected reactions ol ‘the mind. Several interesiing books were | written on the psychology of the war, 1 essed with the fact that it made | men's thoughts turn upon death: and !since In his psychology the fear of | death plays a large part, he found | some confirmation of his views. Le Bon, a French observer, comments upon the many civilians whose minds gave way under the strain, and similar ef- fects of revolutions and massacres came to find so large a number of mental breakdowns from shock, as they re- garced themselves as calm and stolid. The “psychic” experiences of the dentfal warnings (Angcl of Mons) and | baliets in strange powers and visions, as of old. All this relates to the com- mon run of men under stress. The siress of war and of exploration are not the same, but the break with nor- mal life is common to the two. In a staff such as Comdr. Byrd has assembled, the point of interest is th?t he is dealing all along the line and in every one of the many responsible posi- tions with carefully picked, exceptiona! men. The behavior under stress of so highly selected a group' of men,. in whose selection physical, mental and moral qualities all count, is well worth observing and recording. It makes the expedition a Faychologlcll as well as a geographical adventure.

His splendid, adventurous and interesting background seemed to count for little or nothing. Even a stage success didn't impress the casting directors. And young Auer found himself facing as cold a situation as he was up against first arrived there from Russia. During the five months Auer has made the round of the studios and watched his money dwindle he hasj learned the ways of the Hollywood sol- dier—the beginner who has to fight, disillusion, disappointment and poverty. | He admits that he knew the milk-i shake dinners of the “extra” and the! hardships of the studio round.

Attention has bean given to the environment to recreation and to occus" pation, as mental aids to physical fit« nzss and to morale, which is abundant- ly warranted by the qualities of the men. All this means that the stress | of leaving home and the uncertainty of the hazards and the long deprivation of all the contacts of civilization are a | t=st of emotional hardiness quite as | much as resisting cold and wind and | battling with the elements is a test of physical hardiness. Records of former polar expeditions show that, in so rigidly selected a com- pany, there is more than one man with psychological insight to give the narra=- tive the human touch that makes the world kin. It may be the doctor, it may | b2 the pilot, it may be the naturalist ¢ may be—is quite likely to be—the leader himself. ~Arctic expeditions have beea by transfer the literary, qualitics of their chiefs: Greely, Peary, Shackleton; Nansen, Amundsen, Stephenson, Byrd, have contributed inspiring records of human adventure. And as we live in a psychological age, we may anticipate that this side of this grand-scale enter~ prisa will be recognized by the officie} recorders. In no age has science been so richly humanized as in our own; makes graphic the thrill of the record. That men will carry with them even to the frozen desert of isolation the temperamenis that they show at home is plain enough. But to suppose, that behavior under stress will ‘yield to such | simple and false classifications of men es are' indicated by the story cited in this letter is a foolish idea. A pey- chologist in such a situation must* be made of sterner stuff. He must be one of the party in every sense, no mere observer and note-taker. His position is more advantageous be- cause it is unofficial. No one will know whether and when he is under observa- tion. This is not dr: These men are above all themselves, playing their parts in an adventure of which they knog the risks, the lure and the reward. They'll get along perfectly well without any more official repre- sentative of psychology than their own aff, with each set to do his turn as s nature prompts. ceniiur, wear an oversize Stetson with the correst amount of nonchalance. They find nice English chaps, with the sleek look of Bond and Regent streets and the Mall still upon them, playing the role of the cowboy lover. John Loder of London is one of them. Some of this can be explained by the | fact that, much as we like the realistic thing, we do not care for it in toto. ‘We want our cowboy hero to make love like a Don Juan. In life the lord of the great West rides over the range to see his gal, sits about on the veranda of her pa's ranch through a few months of full moons, and without much waste of conversation. His proposal runs something like “What if we ride over- to Boonesville this afternoon and get- that new parson to marry us?" Who's going to pay 65 cents to watch a picture with a love scene like that? The story of the rise of the house of Rothschild is being made in Hollywood under the intriguing title of “The Five: Prankfurters.” # If motion pictures get truly bio- graphical, we may yet have the story of the Rockefellers or the Carnegies.
