Soldier ChaTa ter

The great majority of the men
who enlisted in the Union army In
1861 were over 20 years of age.
Under the first two or three calls
for troops comparatively few men
under aye were accepted. The ma
iority of the survivors of those who
enlisted in SCI are therefore so or
more years Of age now. One-half
of them probably are over so and
one-fourth of them over 60.
In the later years of the war there
were more men under 20, and at the
same time more men over 40, IN the
regiments than in the regiments
formed in 1861. The mastering
officers, very particular as to the
matter of age in the first months of
the war, became less SO as the years
went bv, and thousands of men not
over eighteen years of age entered
the service. The boy of Is who
enlisted in 1862 Is now man OF IS
and the boy of Is who enlisted even
rs late as 1864 is now man oil As.
The ex-soldiers who congregate
at Milwaukee this week will be men
Of mature age. The majority OF
them will be gray-haired, and not a
few of them will be counted as old
men. They have, all Of them,
reached the thoughtful and sensitive
period Of life. They realize that
their strength is failing, and they
know that it is failing the more
rapidly because Of tie great drafts
made on vitality during the war.
These men, who SO many years ago
faced the loaded hail Of battle with
High impulse aud purpose duuins
the sense Of danger, can not face
the trials of life now with the
soldiers trust and calmness. There
was a time during the war when
ne, would willingly have barter d

it is stimulant, and the nature of
stimulants is well-known. They may
have a temporary effect in heighten-
ing the animal AUCTIONS and bright
ening the mental. But the relax
alton of the nervous system which
follows is facilitating in the extreme
as a larger and larger dose of the
stimulant is necessary to overcome
it. In the case of old men for whom
the elixir was especially devised,
this alternate ebb and flow of the
nervous system would be extremely
dangerous.

health and strength to fight the war
out. In those days, as they strove
on the battlefield or lay crippled in
hospitals or drudged at slavish tasks,
the thought came to them that once
the war was over the battered
soldiers could, even if worn out and
made helpless, find safe refuge
among a grateful people. Had they
thought otherwise they would have
fought to the end all the same, but,
rather than ask favor of the peo-
pie they fought for, thousands of
them would have turned their faces
to the wilderness and have died.
That was the, stuff the old armies
were made of, and the gray boards
of to-day feel now as the bronzed
soldiers did at the close of the war.
Then the man who uttered the word
beggar or loafer in connection with
soldiers name caught blow IN
the face, and every time he deserved
it. Does not the man who uses the
tauntlng phrase now deserve as
much?
The soldiers of the old army
could bear any reproach better than
the intimation that the country they
served regarded them as burden.
The intimation has been made, the
taunt has been thrown in the faces
of the men who have borne more
than their share of the heavy bur
den. 1t rests with the people to
give the lie to the intimation and to
fling back the taunt. 1t rests with
the people to SO manifest their feel
ing as to assure and reassure the
veterans that come what may the
people are with them. The encamp-
ment at Milwaukee can be made,
not only soldiers reunion, but an
opportunity for manifestation on
the part of the masses of their APP
probation of soldier character
