Winter Underwear.

Opinions differ as to the comfort de-
rived from the different materials from
which underwear is made, but there is
one thing which admits of no doubt,
and that is that while silk is exceeding
ly warm, soft and pleasant to the flesh
it is at the same time by no means the
healthiest substance for the undergar-
ment. In proof of this practical obser-
walton has demonstrated that silk stock
lngs will make the toughest and health
lest feet moist wet and tender, until
walking becomes painful. a silk scarf
worn around the neck next to the skin
will III nine wearers out of ten produce
sore throat. silk makes the neck hot
and moist, and the first stray breath
of cool air that strikes the skin feels
like drop of iced water and will pro-
duce cold. silk seems to have the
faculty, rs contrasted with wool, of
opening the pores and melting perspira-
tion. and if it will do this with the feet
and neck there is every reason to be-
lieve that it will produce equal suscep-
tibility TO cold when worn about the
chest and limbs Those who wear silk
stockings invariably have tender feet
The rule that applies to the male APP
plies equally to the female. Silk under
clothing may be very comfortable, but
perhaps the advocates of dress reform
would do as much good if they would
discuss carefully the hygienic value OF
the material, as well as the cut and style
of the undergalment. - New York

EPISODE OF THE LATE WAR.
Last Night Of a Southern Soldier on the
Battlefield.

Don't leave me, captain Oh, don't
leave mel''were the words that came to
me with an agonized shrek from bleed
ing and dying Confederate soldier on
the evening of the great battle of NAL
yern Hill, July /, 1862. He, Il mere
youth of II years, lay i'll a heap, gasp
ing for the breath which was fast leav-
ing him, along with the rays of sun
light, Oh that sad and memorable day.
|, for whom that piteous cry was meant,
was staff officer Of the brigade to
which the Louisiana regiment, the sol
der boys regiment, was attached
Well mounted was galloping back
across that bloody field to report the
duty / had performed when suddenly
arrested in my course by the voice Of
despair and woe, coming from my
stricken comrade. The day was fast
passing away into darkness, "a darkness
that seemed to enshroud this valley of
death. The terrific cannonading OH both
sides that had lasted for hours from the
surrounding hills Malvern hill being
the central point Of attack by the Con-
federates) was supplemented by the
booming of artillery aud bursting Of
shells from the gunboats on the ada
cent james river.
Nature seemed to revolt at this scene
of blood and carnage. Thunder aud
lightning and an avalanche of rain came
i'll quick succession with such great
force as to cause the stoutest heart to
quake. This great battle was the sew

tie, but demons fight and the final

the tears of broken hearts
Without stopping to consider what |

strange to say, had seemed frenzied with

Wet and dripping, with the chill of

FERRYBOATS IN THE WAR.
A Veterans Recollections of One He saw
at Fortress Monroe In 1861.

at Fortress Monroe In 1861.
ut is curious, said veteran sol
der, "how some incident or circum-
stance may impart to a long familiar
object to which we have never given
any special thought significance that
makes it always thereafter an object of
particular interest. The East river fer
ryboats impress me in that way now
whenever / see one, and this was
brought about simply by seeing one of
them out of its accustomed waters amid
strange scenes and put to strange uses.
This was in the fall of 1861, in
Hampton Roads The regiment that
served i'll was aboard transport there,
waiting with other troops atloat there
to go farther south under convoy OF "a
feet of war vessels. There was great
number of vessels there of all kinds,
steamers and sailing vessels and war
ships and they made an impressive
show, but certainly the most striking of
any one of them on its first appearance
was an East river ferryboat, the Com
modore Perry. | can see her at this min
ute as she looked then, moving across
the waters of the Roads; she looked so
utterly strange and curious there and
amid such surroundings. But she went
here and there with the most perfect
confidence, constantly employed in
transporting stores and troops and
making herself quite as much at home
there as she ever had been among the
currents and eddies of the narrow East
river.
"Other ferryboats We're taken down
there y soldier friend of mine tells
me that later, in the peninsular cam
paign, there was New York ferryboat
in those waters that was used as gun
boat, carrying two parrott guns, one at
each end, mounted in the gangways,
where the teams drive in and out. My
own impression is that one or two of
these boats went around Hatteras, into
waters fart II south but, however that
may be, shall never forget the first
time / saw the Commodore Perry at
Fortress Monroe, and to this day | never
go along South street without IA feeling
of the keenest personal interest for every
ferryboat | see on the river. New

II may be the years are all somber and dark,
But the clouds will, sometime, drift away,
And the sunlight of glndness
Shine out from the blue
For you brother, sometime some day.
There is never a rose 30 fragrant and fair,
That the thorns are not somewhere about 1t.
And into each life some shadow must come
No life 10 complete without it.
