Home, Sweet Home.

BE it ever so humble, there's no place
himself wanderer in foreign climes and
destined to die in strange land. If there
is any class of citizens that more than an
other have reason TO know and appreciate
the meaning OF these immortal lines, it is
homes from invasion and dcsolation that
they waged a four years. war with traitors.
which they had left behind them that sus-
tanned them through all the trials and
hope of restoring TO those homes the peace
and happiness of other days, that inspired
What was it that the soldier talked of,
thought of, dreamt of, wrote of day after
day, night altsr night, in camp, on the
march, in the trenches, in the hospital, in
the prison-pen, never wearying never tir-
y,
always, "HOme, sweet home"? What was
it that he sighed for, prayed for, fought for,
What was it that when days were long and
nights drcary, when hope grew faint and
the future cloudy, never failed to bring a
smile to the soldiers face and thrill of Joy
to his heart? Was it not letter from
home. All, those white-winged messengers
of love end affection, that darted back and
forth, like a shuttle, between camp and fire.
side, in those memorable days, spun ties of
marvellous strength between the two, and
did more to hold the soldier to his duty
than all other influences put together.
And what of those who remained behind
the aged mother, the doting wife, the
helpless children? What sacrifices did they
not make TO keep the hearth fires burning?
The home of the soldier was temple Of
patriotism in those days, but 6 temple where
lint was picked instead of incense offered,
where the votaries piled the needle instead
of counting their beads. The historian has
recorded in glowing language the achieve
lnents of those who risked their lives to pre-
serve their homes, but where, alas, shall we
look for the story of the sacrifices offered
by those whose presence only made these
homes worth fighting for? Theirs was the
anguish Of watching and waiting, and theirs
the hard duty Of cheering the heart of the
soldier when their own hearts were break
ing. Tor theirs was not always the happy
home which the soldier saw in his dreams.
How often was poverty an unbidden guest
there when the soldier little knew it, How
often Death crossed the threshold when he
was unconscious of that hated presencel
How often black Care brooded over the
