 "Why some distinguishing mark by which each corps can be told from the rest. For instance, one of the corps at Charlottesville had the moon. or a crescent. Another had star, and so on."
 "Ah, yes, 1 sec" said the Irishman. ''Begorra, ye needed the moon and the stars to show ye the way across the Rappahannock. Here's our badge" slap ping his cartridge box. Forty rounds" !"
 The reply was so apt that Logan, up on hearing of It, adopted the cartridge box, with the figures 10 on It, as the badge of the Fifteenth Corps.
 After the disaster at Chickamauga, Grant came down and took command. In the two months walt the picliets of the two armies got into quite friendly relations. They exchanged greetings, and sometimes swapped tobacco across the lines. One day Grant rode down to the Union pekets. One of the guard saw him and, according to the military custom, called out:

 Rea1f laughed at him, but after n while became so filled with unnatural fear that he begged him to finish the verses. Before daybreak Lytle woke his friend and read to him the complet- ed poem. Then, without another word. Lytle put 1t in his breast pocket. At dawn came the call to arms. and the friends separated. When next Realf saw the General, Lytle was among the slain. Remembering what the Gen eral had done with the poem, Realf searched the pocket and found it, and sent 1t to the Generals friends.

 It was at Chickamauga, where Thomas stood like q rock" that Gar field distinguished himself. He was chief of staff to Rosccrans, and was sent by that general to warn Thomas that LOngstreet, with his 10000 men. was marching to turn the right flank of Thomas army. Garfield started off with captain and two orlerlies. They ran into an ambush, the captain was wounded, the two orderlies killed and Garfield was the only one left to go on with the all-inportant message. This was the tlghtest of all tight places that Garfield had eyer been in. He damned his lips together, muttcred -Now is your time, be a man, Jim Garfield" and spurred ahead Tn q zig-zag course across the field to avoid the bullets His horse, q fine animal, was struck, but 1t was only flesh wound, and 1t was like an other dig of the rowels. Garfield reach d made a fresh start over flre-swept field. This mount, too, was hit. but the young chief of staff remained unhurt. Just as he got by Thomas side the anl- nal gave one bound and fell dead. Gar fielddelivered the message and Thomas army was saved. Eighteen years from that day Garfield, the President, lay dead In the cottage at Elheron. The bullet of an assassin had done what the bullets of the Confederates could not do.
 The month before Chickamauga was fought the battle of Wauhatchie, lit tie to the west of Chattanooga. Gen. Geary, who commanded the division which made this fight, had a son, who, at the age of IT, had enlisted at the be- ginning of the war, and at this time was lieutenant of artillery. Just as Geary was about to lead the charge, his boy fell dead before his eyes, hit by bullet fair in the forehead. The father dismounted, kissed the warm body, hardly still from the agonies of death, then sprang to his horse and led his men to the attack. The whole war does not furnish a parallel to this instance of fortitude.
 Among those who fell at Chickamau- ga was the Union General William II. Lytle. His close friend was Lieuten- ant Richard Realf. an Englishman of rare poetic powers, who killed himself in California only a few years ago. The two friends often wrote verses to- gether, and then submitted them to each other for criticism. On the night before Chickamauga they were engag- ed in this manner. Lytle had written part of the poem beginning. T am dy-

HISTORIC OLD HOUSE.

Within a short time the old Everett
House, at yal Edward Everett square,
Dorchester Mass, will be missing from
the spot where it has stood for 1913
years. 1t Is being removed to make
room for a boulevard, and the work of
demolition is now well in progress. AL
though the ancient mansion is known
principally as the birthplace of Edward
Everett, it had quite history before
the time of the great statesman
According to James H. Stark of the
Dorchester Historical Society the
homestead was erected by Col. Robert
oliver, a wealthy planter from ANTI
qua, who settled in Dorchester about
1877. Oliver purchased a number of
pieces of land which had been the
property of Comfort Foster, and in 1745
built "a fine mansion which took the
place Of a more modest house"
Tradition credited Col Oliver with
having brought many black slaves
with him from Antigua, whose method
of carrying burdens-namely, on their
heads-aroused scorn and pity on the
part of the inhabitants, who could not
understand why the slaves ignored the
Yankee wheelbarrows. Col Oliver
died in 1852, at the age of GO years, and
his son, Thomas Oliver, lived in the
house for several years after his
fathers death, then removing to
Cambridge
Edward Everett was born in this
house on April Ii, 1894, and the Rev.
Oliver Everett died there on Nov. 10,
1902 The widow and her family soon
removed to Boston. Edward Everett
sold the house to George Richardson
in 1888. The mansion was purchased
on Oct. 10, 1883, by DIR. S. William
Stanford Stevens, mainly for patriotic
motives, his object being to restore it
as nearly as possible to it's former APP

THE FAvORITES OF TIME
How the MatrOn Preserves Her
Maiden Beauty.

Has old Father Time his favorites? It
would seem so. Two young girls, sisters
or scho6lmates, assume the responsible
ties Of wedlock at the same time. They
are equally young, equally fair They
walk in even step with Time for few
years, and then they are so different in
appearance that they might pass for
mother and daughter instead of women of
equal age.
AS matter Of fact Time has no IA
vorites; he is kind to those who are kind
to themselves. The younger looking
woman will tell you she does not know
how it is that she Keeps her youth and
fairness; she uses no cosmetic, no pow
der, no paint. The woman who looks
so much older will say I'm obliged to
use paint and powder. have to cover up
my yellow skin and hide these wrinkles.
If you probe little deeper into the Sc
crets of these women you will find that
