Peninsular Medals.

Coming to the great European wars OF
the Revolutionary period, we might expect
great crop OF medals for our brave soldiers
But nos there are gold medals for superior
officers but for the die hards of the PENN
sular war, who often, by sheer hard fight
ing, redeem d the blunders of their com
manders absolutely nothing AS foT the
generals, Wellington complained that they
were too thickly hung with medals. There
is II splendid gold medal for Mazda, the
very finest of all our military medals, of
which only II were issued.
Talavcra was acknowledged in gold
medals to commanding officers. And We'll
lington suggests that only one medal
should be ISSUED to an officer, and that flu
ture actions should be engraved upon it.
When four actions had been scored, the
medal should DC replaced by cross to be
worn at the buttUnhUle. Decorations worn
around the neck are awkward to ride in, -
says the matter of fact commander. Fred
erick of York carried out the suggestion
with characteristic difference The gold
cross-Maltesc, with lion statant in the
center, and suspended by gold laurel
wreath-was issued to be worn by general
officers around the neck; others at the
buttonhole.- All the Year Round.

Lives in the Dark.

Did you ever think of what colorless,
dead level lives many women are forced to
live? Women whose whole lives are spent
in the mere drudgery of life, each day
filled with just hopeless rotation of pet
ty duties? For them there is no recrea-
ton, no amusement until at last they
cease to wish for any and become as much
machine as it is possible for "a human be lg
to become. There are SO many such lives
in great city, and the pathos of them APP
peals to me in something the same way as
the silent suffering of the dumb brutes.
For these poor creatures do become almost
dumb, not for lack of vocal organs, but
because the dreadful sameness of their
lives comes in time to dull their faculties.

Memorial Day.

A few years ago General Sherman, in
an address on Memorial Day, spoke as
follows in memory of the dead patriots:
"To-day is the festival of our dead.
We unite to honor the memory of our
dead and our beloved; to enrich and
ennoble our lives by recalling public
heroism and a private worth that are
immortal; to encourage by our solemn
services more Jealous and stalwart
patriotism. Festival of our dead Yes,
though many eyes are clouded with
tears; though many hearts are heavy
with regrets; though many lives are
still desolate for the father or brother,
the husband or lover, who did not come
back; though every grave which tender
reverence or love adorns with flowers
is the shrine of sorrows whose influence
is still potent, though their first keen
poignancy is over; in spite of all, to-day
is festival--a festival of our dead.
No less festival because it is full of
solemnity. And now, in the silent
camping-ground of our dead, as with
soldierly tenderness and love we gar
land these passionless wounds, recall
those who made their breasts the bar
ricade between our country and its foes,
let us recall their tolls, their sufferings,
their heroism, their supreme fidelity in
camp, in prison-pen, on the battle field,
and in the hospital; that the flag under
which they fought, and from the shadow
of whose folds they were promoted,
may never be dishonored; that the
country, for whose union and suprem-
acy they surrendered life, may have the
fervent and enthusiastic devotion of
every citizen; that as we stand by every
grave as before an altar, we may pledge
our manhood that, so help US God, the
memory of our dead shall encourage
and strengthen in US all a more loyal
patriotism
