Wo have the word OF Alfred Tennv.
son for it that in the spring the young
mans fancics lightly turn to thoughts
OF love. 1t is singular that the great
laureate omitted to mention tho fact
that it is in the spring that consider
able portion Of tho human race turn to
taking Hoods Sarsaparilla. Probably
nothing but the difficulty OF finding n
good rhyme ior that Invaluable remedy
deferred him. Certain it is that tho
o!d.t;mo domestic remedies are geuer-
ally discarded in favor OF the standard
blood purifier, Hoods Sarsaparilla,
which has attained tho greatest popu-
lari;y all over tho country as the favor
lite Spring Medicine. 1t purities the
blood and gives nerve. mental, bodily
and digestive strength.

CHAPTER Il

The night before had been unusually
dark A thick veil of clouds overspread
the heavens and hid the stars. Moon
there was none, for the faint silver cres-
cent that cleaned for a moment through
the swift sailing wisps of vapor had
dropped beneath the horizon soon after
tattoo, and the mournful strains of
"taps, borne on the rising wind, SEEM
ed to signal "extinguish lights" to the
entire armament as well as to Fort Sib-
ley. There was a dance Of some kind at
the quarters of one Of the staff officers
living far up the row on the southern
terrace. Chester heard the laughter and
chat as the young officers and their con-
voy OF maroDs and maids came trip.
ping homeward after midnight. He
was a crusty old bachelor, to use his
own description, and rarely yentured
into these scenes Of social gayety, and
besides he was officer of the day, and it
was a theory he was fond of expound-
ing to Juniors that when on guard no
soldier should permit himself to be
drawn from the scene Of his duties.
With his books and his pipe Chester
whiled away the lonely hours of the
early night and wondered if the wind
would blow up rain or disperse the
clouds entirely. Toward / O'Clock a light,
bounding footstep approached his door.
and the portal few open as a trim built
young fellow, with laughing eyes and
an air Of exuberant health and spirits,
came briskly il. 1t was Rollins, the
junior second lieutenant Of the regiment
and Chester's own and only pet-so said
the enYious others. He was barely a
year out Of leading strings at the Point
and as full OF hope and pluck and mis-
chief as a colt. Moreover, he was frank
and teaohabie, said Chester, and didn t
come to him with the idea that he had
nothing to learn and less TO do. The
bog won upon his gruff captain from the
very start, and, to the increduloas de-
light Of the whole regiment, within SIX
months the old eynio had taken him into
MS heart and home, and Mr., Rollins
occupied a pleasant room under Ches-
ter's roOftree and was the sole accredited
shaTeF Of the captains mess. To a

fy him. . And Captain Chester turned
TO his desk again as the new officer Of
the day, guardbook in hand. entered to
make his report
The usual orders, captain, " said
Chester as he took the book from his
hand and looked over the list Of prison
era Then, in bold and rapid strokes,
he wrote across the page the customary
certificate Of the old officer Of the day,
winding mp with this remark:
''He also inspected guard and visited
sentFies between 8 and $685. q. m. The
firing at $50 a. m. was by his order. +"
Meantime those officers who had en-
tered and who had no immediate duty
to perform were standing or seated
around the room, bat all observing pro-
found silence. For moment or two no
sound was heard but the scratching Of
the captains pen. Then, with some EN-
baTFassment and hesitancy, he laid it
down and glanced around him.
HAS any one here anything to ask
any business to transact?'
Two or three mentioned some routine
matters that required the action of the
post commander, but did so reluctantly,
as though they preferred to await the
orders Of the colonel himself. Captain
Wilton indeed spoke his sentiments:
II wanted to see Colonel Maynard
about getting two men Of my company
relieved from extra duty, but as he isn't
here fancy had better wait.
mot at all. Who are your men?
Have it done at once, Mr. Adjutant
and supply their places from my COM
pany if need be, Now, is there anything
else?"
The group was apparently "nonplus-
ed, as the adjutant afterward put it,
by suoh unlocked for oomplacence on
the part Of the usually crotchety senior

captain. Still, no one offered TO lead
the others and leave the room. After a
moments nervous rapping with his
nuckles On the desk Captain Chester
again abruptly spoke:
Gentlemen, / am sorry to incom-
mode you, but if there be nothing more
that you desire to sec me about I shall
go on with some other matters, which,
pardon me, do not require your pres
ence.
At this very broad hint the party
slowly found their legs, and with much
wonderment and not a few resentful
chances at their temporary commander
the officers sauntered to the doorway.
There, however, several stopped again,
still reluctant to leave in the face Of SO
pervading q mystery, for Wilton turned.
cam I to understand that Colonel
Maynard has left the post to be gone
any length of timer" he asked.
He has not yet gone. l do not know
how long he will be gone or how soon
he will start, For pressing personal rea-
sons he has turned over the command
to me, and if he decide to remain
away Of course some field officer will be
ordered to come to headquarters, For a
day or two you viii have to worry
along with me, hut l sha'n't worry you
more than 1 can help. I've got mystery
and mischief enough here to keep me
busy, God knows, Just ask Sloat to
come back here to me, will you? And,
Wilton, I did not mean to be abrupt
with you. I'm all upset today. Mr.. Ad-
jutant, notify Mr.. Jerrold at once that
he must not leave the post until have
seen him. 1t is the colonel's last order.
Tell him SO.
