A Drafting Dodge

berless expedienta resorted to in order to escape thu draft, but an exehange furnishes an original oue resorted to by a drayman : " Iiaving procurcd a pair of old boots, he deliberately knocked ofl the heel of one, and as deliberately walked into the doctor's office. There was necessarily an inequality in the leugth of pedáis, and a peculiar ' dotand-go one' gait that could not be mistaken. A certifícate of ' defective limbs' was pocketed, and the relieved teamster departed."
