A great ir.uuy swords were brought homo after tho war between the states welded in the middle, becauso the young olllccrs who owned them had bragged about their elasticity and had broken them In trying to demonstrate it The tragedy happened in this wuy: The young olllcor In setting out for tho war had been given n flue sword by bis udmlrlu friends at home. He was told and made to believe that his Bwotd was of tried Damascus or Toledo steel and Unit it would bund double without breaking. In en tup somewhere the young captains uml lleutctmnts would fall to vaunting their trunty blades, and on a bet one of them would stick tho point of his sword luto a tree and begin to bend tho hilt around to meet the point. And Just as the hilt cumo around the blade snapped In two in tho mnldlc. iVery few of theso pres entation swords were as Damascus or as Toledo as they wero supposed to be.) After that the two parts of thu sword had to be welded, uud tho weapon showa tho welding to this day. New York Mall. Ancient Eggs and Jokes. Bad news and ditto eggs bad best be broken gently.
