in Scribner's Monthly concerning the Chesa-
peake Peninsula and its people. He says:

norance.

is hardly indigenous, but sounds suspiciously

business talk. Who can define an "ill-com-
meoned day'' except upon the theory of nat
ural yolubility unreleved by dictionary?
Gan else" is transposition of unless, Fright
SMART is ofuniversal currency; it applies to
man of sagacity, to quantity, and to distance;
occasionally the word ''peart' takes the place
of smart, to signify animation. ''Cleverness''
in Delaware means hospitality and good-fel-
lowship solely, never skill, and it is the next
diploma below the impossible grade of "a
gentleman"
on the Peninsula, the remark being common
OF 'So-and-So is my fourth cousin" Extra
ordinary cases of human longevity occur here,
notwithstanding the prevalency at times OF
low fevers; but the eastern shore is healthier
than the opposite and higher ceerst. Crime is
rare; society was tranquil during the war;
Northern immigration is welcomed, and OBJ

The old man arose hurriedly and disappear

"His rheumatic is coming on agin bad" he
explained, 'sand he wants rubbin'." He lift

and shook it. 1t was empty. Dick Bullen

"Better. Rub little furder down. Wot's

This exhaustive definition was apparently
satisfactory, for there was silent interval of
rubbing. Presently Johnny again:

The old mau partly opened the door and

Those Whom Battle Stays at Home.

As they sat together on the hilltop, they
could look down into Robert Hagburn's en-
closure, and they saw him, with his arm now
relieved from the sling, walking about, in a
very erect manner, with middle aged man
by his side, to whom he seemed to be talking
and explaining some matter. Even at that
distance Septimius could see that the rustic
stoop and uncouthness had somehow fallen
away from Robert, and that he seemed devel-
oped.
''What has come to Bobert Hagburn ?"
said he. she looks like another man than
the lout knew few weeks ago."
Nothing" said Rose Garfield, "except
what comes to a good many young men now
adays. He has enlisted, and is going to the
war. 1t is a pity for his mother.
"a great pity" said Septimius. ''Mothers
are greatly to be pitied all over the country
just now, and there are some even more to be
pitied than the mothers, though many of
them do not know or suspect anything about
their cause of grief at present"
"Of whom do you speak@' asked Rose
81 mean those many good and sweet young
girls" said Septimius, ''who would have
been happy wives to the thousands of Young
men who now, like Robert Hagburn, are 90,
ing to the war. Those young men-many of
them, at least-will sicken and die in camp.
or be shot down, or struck through with BAY
onets on battle-ields, and turn to dust and
bones; while the girls that would have loved
them, and made happy firesides for them,
will pine and wither, and tread along many
sonr and discontented years, and at last go
out of life without knowing what life is. So
you see, Rose, every shot that takes effect
kills two at least. or kills one and worse than
kills the other."-From the Atlantic Month
