WRITE TO THE SoLDIERs.-How easy it is
to settle down by slow and almost impercap-
tible degrees into neglect of writing to ab
sent friends. And yet, to the soldier, in par
ticular, how much Of pleasure and encourage
ment may be afforded by little attention,
even at the expense of some personal ease and
convenience, to this matter. We have listen
ed to the testimony of many returned SOL
diers on this point and there is no diversity
of opinion as to the effect produced by the
occasional receipt Of some such token Of re-
membrance. Write as tenderly as you
please; in camp the toughest man idolizes his
far-off home, and every word Of love uplifts
him to lover. Show your soldier that his un-
Ainching courage, his undying fortitode, are
your clown of rejoicing. lncite him to en-
thusiasm by your inspiration. Be unweary.
ing in the details of the little interests at home
Keep him posted in all the village gossip
the lectures, the courtings, the sleigh rides
and the singing schools. Bring out the good
points of tho world in strong relief. Tel
him every sweet and brave and pleasant and
funny story you can think of. Show hin
that you clearly apprehend that all this war
fare means peace, and that dastardly peace
would pave the way for speedy, incessant, and
more appalling warfare. By all means write
to the soldiers.
