around the ruins as though in search Of
some one. All efforts to drive it away
proved futile, and as night came on, It
cr0uched down by what was left of the

was kept up from day to day, and. the
poor brute not only refused to leave the
place, but declined to eat the food
placed before it by sympathizing spec

Thursday afternoon Corporal BEN
jamin H. Stottman, of the First ReRi-
ment O. N. G., and Frank Hartmann
went out to the Taylor place. They
found the dog still faithful at its post,
but so weak from its long fast that It
could hardly stand. With pitiful cries
sounding almost like those Of q child,
the poor brute dug in the ashes with its
paws. Then it dragged itself to the
chicken coop, and looked inside, and
then to q pile of Taylor's old clothes
that had not been burned. Its mourn
full howls were increased as it threw It.

Tie Land ofthe Afternoon.

An old man sits In his garden chair,
Watching the sunltt western sky,
What sees he in the blue deep there,
Where only the Isles of Memory lie2
There are princely towers and castles high,
There are gardens fairer than human ken,
There are happy children thr0ngtng BY,
Radiant women and stately men.
Singing with voices of sweet aftune,
The songs OF the Land of the afternoon.
The old man watches form or cloud,
That floats where the azure islands are, n
And he sees homestead gray and loved
And hand that beckons him afar.
o, cheek Of roses and hair of gold!
o, eyes of heavens divinest bluel
Long have ye lain in the graveyard mold
But love Is infinite, love is true;
He will find her-yes-it must be soon,
They will meet In the Land of the Afternoon
The sky has changed, and wreck Of cloud
Is driving atLwart its troubled face,
The golden mist is q trailing shroud;
It is cold and bleak In the garden place.

The thin hair blows from his wrinkled brow
The sunset radiance has appeared.
