The Western Soldier as Critic.

Captain Henry King of the ST. Louis
Globe-Democrat contributes to The Cen
Century for May paper on 1.-The West
ern Soldier from which we make this
extract: They assumed right of criti-
cism towards their regimental and conpa-
ny officers that was almost AS free as that
exercised by the average voter with re-
gard to political officials In some in
stance. they did injustice, no doubt; but,
generally speaking, their estimates were
sagacious aud proper. They had no pa
thence with prelcncc of any description,
and they were qui,k to detect it. Thus,
if colonel invested his headquarters
with unnecessary pomp and Formally, As
Il colonel was occasional y known t. do,
they would nudge one another in passing
and exchange looks and comments that
rarely failed TO produce change. On
one occasion lcuienant-colonel, riding
out to battle, forfeited the esteem of his
regiment by holding picture of his wife
in his hand and gazing il1edly upon it; but
he afterwards restored himself 10 favor by
adarng act tina Icost him two ugly wounds.
Another officer of the same rank, on a
toilsome march gained a cheer by alight-
ing from his horse and giving his place
in the saddle to limping soldier; but
when the major at his side did the same
thing there was no response. he nrst
had performed kindness without promt-
ing, while the second was mt re- imita-
tor 1t wa. by such distinctions that Of
iicers were notified of the sharp watch
that was being kept upon them, and adj
moniShed that they were mortal as well
as those who wore no shoulder-straps.
Now and then the instruction took a
more amusing turn, AS when captain,
noted for his conceit, undertook to lee
ture his company upon tie necessity of
increased respect for officers, and was
checked by droll fellow who said, with
grin and an eNtravagant salute. Cap,

Milk heated too much above loo Far

tigued by over exertion of body or mind,
has ever experienced the reviving iuhu-

It's cordial influence is felt is indeed sur
prising. Some portions of ii seem to be
digested and appropriated almost immedi-
ately, and many who now fancy that they
need alcoholic stimulants when exhausted
by fatigue will find in this simple drau2ht
an equivalent that will be abundantly sat

who are employed in respectable business

beer, at the restaurants. They probably
claim that they are tired, and no one
who sees their faithful devotion to custo-

But they should not mistake beer for "A
blessing or stimulus for strength. A
careful examination of statistics will
prove that men and women who de- not
