about 1t that makes old veterans rise
in their saddles and cheer
We have been fighting at the edge
of the woods. Every cartridge-box
has been emptied once or more. and
one-fourth of the brigade has melted
away in dead and wounded and miss
ing. Not cheer is heard in the whole
brigade. We know that we are being
driven foot by foot, and that when we
break once more the line will go to
pieces and the enemy will pour through
the gap.
Here comes help
Down the crowded highway gallops
a battery withdrawn from some other
position to save ours. The field fence
is scattered while you could count
thirty, and the guns rush for the hills
beyond us. Over dry bitches where a
farmer would not drive q wagon,
through clumps of bushes. over logs a

every rider flashing his team and yell

brow of the hill as if he who should
reach it first would be knighted.
A moment ago the battery was con-
fused mob. We looked again and the
six guns are in position, the detached
horses hurrying away, the ammunition
chests open, and along our line runs
the command:
Give them one more volley and fall
back to support the guns" We have
scarcely obeyed when boom boom
opens the battery, and jets of fire
jump down and scorch the green trees
under which we fought and despaired.
The shattered old brigade has a
chance to breathe for the first time in
three hours, as we form line and lie
down. What grim, cool fellows those
cannoneers are. Every man is a per-
feet machine. Bullets splash dust in
their faces, but they do not vince.
Bullets sing over and around, they do

Cured of sheen KiIIInr.

A lady had valuable st. Bernard
of excellent pedigree, carefully trained
and in all respects of well-nigh ideal
excellence, save for one fault-he would
kill lambs. He was beaten and i'm
prisoned.
While matters were in this state q
friendly farmer, relates writer in the
Boston Courier, who had upon some
occasion got into his head the fact that
the dogs mistress was fond of pets,
sent her cosset, gay with ribbons, and
looking as innocent as innocence itself.
The lady was in despair. She expected
that her dog would fall upon the lamb;
but, having in the past had much ex-
perience with pets, she said that if
this catastrophe was to happen she did
not propose to have it postponed until
she had become deeply attached to the
newcomer, and so deliberately led the
lamb up to the dog, said to him that it
was her lamb and directed him to
watch it. The dog looked at her rather
wistfully, evidently requesting per-
mission to 1ear the pretty innocent,
but she sternly shook her head, and,
departing, left the pair together on the
lawn.
She Is willing to admit-now that the
trial proved successful that she had
no idea that it would, and that she ex-
pected to find the lawn strewn with the
dismembered fragments of the lamb.
When a few hours later she returned,
however, the dog was found to have
taken the lamb into his especial favor
and under his especial protection. He
lay down with it, he followed it about
and seemed to have become uncom-
monty fond of it in way not at all al
lied to carnivorous instincts. In short,
the lamb and the dog became the
closest of friends, and as long as the
two did live they continued to dwell to-
gether in peace and affection.
And the remarkable part of the tale
is that from that day the dog no more
molested any lambs whatsoever. It
was a plain case of similia similibus
curantur. The dog was at once and
forever cured of his vice, and his fond
mistress relates this story to admiring
friends with mingled pride and affec-
ton.

We learned how many hearts had Dleo
How many were the slain
In many home the hearth was cold,
Blood-stained the smiling hOwersi
Thousands were with the dead enrolled
But victory was ours.
We heard afresh the orphans wall
The weeping voice OF mother
And listened to that mournfu1 tale
The loss OF father, brother.
Behind the sudden, binding light,
A specter grim was hidden;
And they who pompous history write
VIII leave that ghost unbidden.
We miss the sad and fearful page
Where love would write its story

From the New York Recorder.

A book that will make a contro-
versial stir is the exhaustive life of
Thomas Paine half completed by
Moncure D. Conway. The book
will present Paine in light differ
entin many important respects from
that in which the author of "The
Age of Reason" has been viewed
hitherto. Mr.. Conway has not on
ly made a long and careful study
of Paine's published writings and
of the biographical material al
ready in print, but has sought by
personal search in England and in
this country to command material
essential to a full and satisfactory
account of the mans personality.
In this search Mr.. Conway has
made significant discoveries which
will give to his book a peculiar
interest.
As far back as 1859 Mr.. Conway,
then busy clergyman at Cincin-
natl, offered defense of Pa1ne's
character and theories. The ad-
dress made a sensation, for Mr..
Conway's comments were taken as
the first effort ever made by a
Christian preacher to check the
sweeping denunciations of Paine.
"To-day," says Mr.. Conway,
sit is difficult for US to realize the
attitude of those who criticised the
age of Reason thirty years ago.
Paine was pictured as a monster,
generally, of course, by people who
had not read his writings at all,
and the epithets heaped upon him
were as fantastic as any applied to
the most hardened hereto that
ever lived. AS a matter OF fact
Paine was not only a deist, he not
only believed in God, but was a
reverent believer. In fact, the at
titude of Paine-the scourged and
viliied Tom Paine-toward the
Bible and the general beliefs of the
Christian Church differed in scarce
ly any material respect from the
attitude of the advanced Unitarian
Church to-day. Paine anticipated
a great many of the changes which
have taken place in all the Christ
ian Churches and he did so with
out ever taking the position ignor-
antly aseribed to him by those who
have no actual knowledge of what
he has written"

She Was a Sister to Him.
From the Atchison Globe.


A year ago a West Atcbison
young man ran across an adver-
tisement OF an Ohio "widow" for
correspondent; object, fun, and
possibly marriage. The widow
gave her address at a little town
where the young man has relatives
living, and he answered the adver-
tisement, using an assumed name.
The correspondence was kept up
regularly, and the young man a
short time ago concluded to visit
his relatives and at the same time
look up his fair correspondent.
After he had been at the old home
few days he began to quietly
make inquiries for his correspond
ent. Finally he questioned his
relatives and it developed that for
a whole year he had been making
love to his own sister. The young
lady had guessed the identity of
her correspondent and had led the
gay young man on.
