SPEARS OF STRAW
He.bad passed bis first ten yean In
| prison without doing anything, settling
j himself and fitting bimself to tbe bab-
I Its of the place.
i Then, so there wen yet twenty yean
of prison life before him, he said one
fine morning tbat It was shameful tt
lead to idle A Ufe^and that be must
create for himself toms occupation
worthy not of a freeman, since "lie was
a prisoner, bnt worthysimply of a man.
He devoted a year to reflection, to
weighing the different Ideas wblcb pre
sented themselves, to seeking a definite
aim for bis existence.
”1 most,” said bt, “find something at
tbe same time novel, useful and defy
ing. I must Invent a task wblcb shall
occupy my time, which shall bo pro
ductive of some good and which shall
have the vslne of a protest’’
Another-year was employed in this
search, and at lost success crowned
bis efforts.
It wss a veritable dungeon, that In
which the prisoner lived, which the son
entered bnt for one abort half boar dal
ly, and then by a single ray, which was
s mere thread of tight
Tb* hod on wblcb the unhappy man
stretched his aching timhs was t pile
of wot straw.
“Tbo very thing!” be cried, with en
ergy. "Now I shall defy my jailers and
cheat the courts!”
Pint he counted the separate straws
that made up bis bundle. There wars
L80I strews, a meager bundle!
Then be made an experiment to find
oat bow long It would take to dry a
•Ingle straw.
Threequartcra of on bear.
If would require for them ill, for the
1,807 strews, a total of 260 bears and
15 minutes, with a half boor of sun
shine a day, 1,901 days.
Calculating that the sun would not
shine at least one day oat of three, It
would require 16 years, 1 mouth,
week and 0 days. He set to work at
once.
. Breiy day that the son shoos the
prisoner carried a strew and put It In
tbs' snnshlno, busying himself thns
whenever there was son. For the rest
of the time he kept warm under hie
clothes the straws Vfcicb ba had been
able to dry.
Thns ten yean passed. The prisoner
slept on only a third of tbe bandit of
the damp straw, and bt had staffed In
the bosom of bis Moose the other two
thirds which, one by one, be htd dried.
Fifteen yean passed. Happiness un
speakable! Only 196 damp strew* re
mained. \
Eighty-four days more, and the pris
oner could scarcely contain himself.
Proud of bis work, victory over dr
camstauces. be cried, with the voice
of on avenger, with a . mooklng, re
bellions laugh:
“Ah, : ha! Yon condemned me to tbe
wet etraw of a dungeon! Well, weep
with rage! I sleep on dry etrawr
Aloe! A cruel destiny wss watching
for Its prey.
One night, while tbe priaouer dream
ed of the happiness in store for him, in.
bit wild Joy he tlirew out hit hands In
speechless exultation, overset bis water
jug, and tbe water ran trickling down
his breast, t r, s, ,
I All of the straws, were wet.
What to do now—to' begin again the
toll of Bleyphna, to pare fifteen years
more potting strews to dry In the slen
der ray?
Ob, the discouragement of It!.
Bnt, yon say, he had only one nnd a
half yean more In prison.
And do yon count ns nothing wound
ed pride, fallen hope? Think; ihle man
would have worked fifteen years to
sleep on a handle of dry etraw, and
should he content to quit his prison
with wet Straws dinging to his hair?
Never!
Eight days and nights he’writhed In
agony.
Hq finished by acknowledging defeat
One evening be fell on bis knees, de
spairing, broken.
“O God," be cried In Ua tears, “par
don me that I have lost courage today!
I have suffered for thirty years.
“I have felt’mjr limbs waste, my skin
mortify, my eyes grow dim and my
batr.and teeth fall me. I have reslated
hunger, thirst cold and solitude. I
bad a hope which sustained my efforts.
I had an aim In my life.
“Now It la Impossible to satisfy my
hope. Now tbo aim la gone forever.
Pardon me that I desert my post; that
1 quit the field of battle; tbat I flee like
a coward. I tan bear It no longer.”
Then ln‘a sudden access of Indignation
be cried:
“No, no; a thousand times nol It
•hall not be uld that I have loat my
life for nothing. I will not deaert. I
am not a coward. No; 1 will not aleep
fora mlnnte more on the damp straw
of the dungeon. No; they aball not de
feat me.’’
lnd the prisoner died during tbo
night, conquered, tike Brutus; grand,
tike Onto.
He died of a heroic lndlgeetlon. He
had eaten alt his straw. —From the
