business, and inquired if he had any
money or valuables concealed about
his person. Poor, frightened Ben had
managed to hide his money, about three
hundred and fifty dollars, in his boots,
but, not being used to evading the
truth, he answered frankly that he
had. Let me have everything in your
possession" returned the major, ex-
tending his hand as though he had no
intention of being trif1ed with.
With quivering lips and fearful eyes
Ben put his hand down into his boot
leg and drew out the roll of green
backs and handed it to the major.
| Then, trying to choke back his sobs,
he told of bis invalid father, his over
worked mother, and the helpless little
ones at home, and explained that the
money he carried was his soldier
brothers wages that they had intrusted
to him while in Washington, together
with his own earnings, and that it was
all to have been sent that very day to
the desolate family away off in Penn
sylvania. The major listened quietly
to the sad story and when it was fin
ished he folded the boys passes around
the money and said when the time
comes for you to leave this place, come
to me and you shall have your money
again"
Six weeks later Ben was paroled,
| and, repairing to the majors Office to
bid him good-by, the kind-hearted Off
Ger put the package into his hands,
saying: Here is your money, my
boy, and 1 am glad that you will soon
| have chance to send it to your moth
err, Good-by, and may God bless and
take care of you
The little fellow took the package
gratefully, and was soon on his way to
his northern home. His Imprisonment
had not crushed his ambition, how
ever, and after a week rest he re-
turned to his old stamping ground, and
was soon going his rounds as usual.
Two of his brothers were sent home
in pine boxes before the war closed;
but, except his brief sojourn in Libby,
his experience i'll the army was not UNI
pleasant, and when peace was declared
he went home with enough money in
his pocket to pay off the mortgage on
the little house that had sheltered him
from infancy. He afterwards worked
| his way through college, studied law,
and in process of time took high sta
ton in his chosen profession.
Several times in after years, during
flying trips to Richmond, Ben made in
quiries concerning Maj. Warner, his
prison friend, but no one seemed to
know what had become of him; so he
finally gave up the search, though he
never forgot the kindness he had re-
ceived at an enemy's hand.
In the year 1899, Ben, Hon. Ben
jamin Redmond, went by invitation to
Covington, KY, to deliver the memo
rial Grafton on Decoration day. In his
address he repeated the touching Incl
dent that had occurred at Libby prison,
and afterwards, while the old veterans
were strewing the graves of the dead
heroes with flowers, an old man came
to him and asked him to walk around
to the other side of the cemetery to
-ook at the grave in which his twin
ooys were buried. When they reached
the rose-covered grave he said; You

In Love With His Mother.

OF all love affairs in the world, none
can surpass the true love of a big boy
for his mother. 1t is pure and noble,
honorable to the highest degree in
both. do not mean merely dutiful
affection; / mean Il love that makes Il
boy gallant and courteous to his
mother, saying to every body plainly
that he is fairly in love with her. Next
to the love of husband, nothing so
crowns a woman's life with honor as
this second love, this devotion of son
to her. l never yet knew boy to
turn out bad who began by falling in
love with his mother. Any man may
fall in love with fresh-faced girl, and
the man who is gallant with the girl
may cruelty neglect his worn and
weary wife; but the boy who is a
lover of his mother in her middle age
is true knight who will love his wife
as much in her sere-leaved autumn as
he did in the daisied springtime.-

This is best done when they ara
confined in little stalls or when only
two or three are together. Like the
pig, duck or goose will eat more
when it has a companion than when il
is alone, as greediness is one of the
characteristics belonging to both.
The food need not be expensive.
Boiled turnips, carrots, and potatoes,
with corn meal, make the best mess to
get ducks and geese fat quickly. They
must be kept very quiet, giving
plenty of water for drinking, and
allowing pulverizod charcoal once a
day. Ten days is long enough for get
ting them in proper condition. - Irairit

A Sick Cobbler Fed by His Dog.

There lived on the outskirts of q
small village in Illinois an old man who
eled out precarious living as a cobbler
and in cultivating little patch of gar
den. His only companion was an old
dog called Bob, and like his master,
the dog was always in a half-starved
condition. One day gentleman pass
ing by the cobbler's house and taking
pity on poor Bob, beckoesed him to fol-
low, which the dog did readily enough.
Arriving at the gentleman's house Bob
was taken to the kitchen and given a
hearty meal. Then, to the cooks dis
may, he seized a large piece of cold
roast beef from the table and ran away
with it. Attracted by the uproar, the
gentleman came to the kitchen, and
was highly indignant when he heard of
the dogs perfidy. Determined that Bob
should not profit by his theft, the gen.
tleman followed the dog to the cob
bler's little house, and, to his surprise,
found that Bob was standing by his
master, with the meat in his mouth.
The gentleman also found that the cob
bier was in bed, very i'll and weak, and
instead of Furnishing the dog, as he at
first intended, he took good care that
neither Bob nor his master should want
in future.-St Louis Republic.

when repeating the story. HE has said

His name shall be rewarded, and now
He has fulfilled that promise to me-"

PURE-BRED POULTRY.
To Keep 1t Is Profitable as Well rs .
Source of Pleasure.

Source of Pleasure.
In this age of progressive stocl-rais-
ing it is food for reflection why SO
many farmers who pride themselves on
the pedigrees of tEeir cattle, sheep or
swine pay little or no attention to the
breeding of their poultry. Every farm
err has more or less poultry and it is
safe to say that less than one-half of
the farmers who are breeding blooded
stock can make any claim to having
pure-bred poultry. Nothing is moro
pleasing to the eye on a livestock
farm than a flock of pure-bred poultry
and nothing is more disgusting than to
see farm with herd of blooded cat
tie or swine and lot of uncared-for,
scrawny, mongrel fowls running about
the yards.
Any farmer by the outlay of from So
to $40 for eggs or $40 to S25 for fowls
from some reliable breeder can lay the
foundation for a stock of pure bred
poultry in one year. The cockerels
can be sold from 81 to So each by ex-
pending a small sum in advertising
and should bring more than enough to
cover first cost. But even if they are
sold on the market it has been demon
strated beyond a question that pure

~ The armies of the living
Go forth to greet the dead.
Around the graves they gather,
A hush on every soul
That listens in the silence,
While Memory calls the roll
From battle-statned Antietam,
From Missionary Ridge,
From Gettysburg ard Shiloh.
From mountain, plain and bridge,
They come who died as heroes,
They come from far or near.
And as the roll is counted
Each man makes answer: "Herel"
Not one is Of the missing,
The ranks are full to-day.
In solid marching order
They stand, q close array,
Their faces lit with courage
AS in that long ago,
When for the love of country
They fell before the foe
On every grave garland
OF sweet May blooms is laid,
Till OF the sad Gods acre
A garden fair is made
And ever with the living
BY glade or sunny knoll,
The noble dead are marching
AS Memory calls the roll.
They cannot be forgotten
To whom their comrades pay
The tributes of affection
On Decoration day.
Still dear to those who love them
Elch loval faithful Soul
VIII hear their answer: Present."
