ONE BENEATH OLD GLORY.

Don't you hear the tramp Of soldiers?
Don't you hear the bugles play?
Don't you see the muskets flashing
In the sunlight far away?
Don't you feel the ground all trembling
Meath the tread Of many feet?
They are coming. tens of thousands.
To the army and the fleet.
They are Yankees, they are Johnnies,
They're for north and south no more;
They are one, and glad to follow
When Old Glory goes before.
From Atlantic to Pacific,
From the Pine Tree to Lone Star,
They are gath'ring round Old Glory,
And they're marching to the war.
Don't you see the harbors guarded
BY those bristling dogs of war?
Don't you hear them growing, barking,
At the fleet beyond the bar?
Don't you hear the Jack Tars cheering,
Brave as sailor lads can be?
Don't you see the water boiling
Where the squadron put to sea?
They are Yankees, they are Johnnies,
They're for north and south no more;
They are one, and glad to follow
When Old Glory goes before.
From Atlantic to Pacific
From the Pine Tree to Lone Star,
They have gathered round Old Glory,
And they're sailing to the war.
Don't you hear the horses prancing?
Don't you hear the sabres clash?
Don't you hear the cannon roaring?
Don't you hear the musket crash?
Don't you smell the smoke of battle?
Oh, you'll wish that you had gone,
When you hear the shouts and cheering
For the boys who whipped the Don!
There'll be Yankees, there'n be Johnnies,
There'E be north and south no more,
When the boys come marching homewar
With Old Glory borne before.
From Atlantic to Pacific,
From the Pine Tree to Lone Star,
They'll be one beneath Old Glory
After coming from the war.

LORD TOTTENHAM
By E. NESBIT.

HAD always thought that the books
were right. and that the best way to
make your fortune was to rescue an old
gentleman in distress. Then he brings
you up as his own son; but if you pre-
ferred to go on being your fathers son
] expect the old gentleman would make
it up to you in some other way. In
books the least thing does it. You put
up the railway carriage window, or you
pick up his purse when he drops it, or
you say hymn when he suddenly asks
you to, and then your fortune is made.
/ The others did not seem to care much
about the rescue. They said there
wasn't any deadly peril, and we should
have to make one before we could res
cue the old gentleman from it; but Os-
wald didn't see that it mattered. How
ever, he thought he would try some of
the easier ways first by himself. So
he waited about the station and pulled
up railway carriage windows for old
gentlemen who looked likely; but moth
ing happened, and at last the porters
said he was nuisance. So that was no
go. No one had ever asked him to say
a hymn, though he had learnt nice
short one, beginning: "New every
morning." and when an old gentleman
did drop two-shilling piece just by
Ellis, the hair dresser's, and Oswald
picked it up and was just thinking what
he should say when he returned it, the
old gentleman caught him by the col
lar and called him young thief. 1t
would have been very unpleasant for
Oswald if he hadn't happened to be a
very brave boy and known the police
man on that beat very well indeed. So
the policeman backed him up, and the
old gentleman said he was sorry and
offered Oswald sixpence. Oswald re-
fused it with polite disdain, and nothing
more happened at all.
When Oswald had tried by himself
and it had not come off he said to the
others: Were wasting our time not
trying to rescue the old gentleman in
deadly peril. Let's do something"
1t was dinner time, and Pincher was
going round getting the bits off the
plates. There were plenty, because it
was cold mutton day. And Alice said /:
''It's only fair to try Oswald's way;
he has tried all the things the others
have thought of. Why couldn't we res
cue Lord Tottenham?"
Lord Tottenham is the old gentle
man who walks over the heath every
day at three o'clock, and when he gets
half way if there is no one about he
changes his collar and throws the dirty
one into the furze bushes.
Dicl<ie said: "Lord Tottenham's all
right; but where's the deadly peril?""
And we couldn't think of any. There
are no highwaymen on Blackheath now
am sorry to say; though Oswald said
half of us could be highwaymen and the
other half the rescue party. Dora said
it would be wrong to be a highwayman,
and SO we had to give that up.
Then Alice said: 'What about
Pincher?"
And we all saw at once that it could
be done. Pincher is our fox terrier. He
is very well bred, and he does know one
or two things, though we never could
teach him to beg. But if you tell him
to hold on he will do it, even if you
only say: "Seize him!" in whisper.
So we arranged it all. Dora said she

Three Women Relieved Of Female
Troubles by Mrs. Pinkham.

From Mrs. A. w. SMITH, SO Summer
St., Biddeford, Me-:
"For several years 1 suffered with
various diseases peculiar to my sex.
Was troubled with burning sensation
across the small of my back, that all
gone feeling, was respondent, fretful
and discouraged; the least exertion
tired me. I tried several doctors but
received little benefit. At last I de-
cided to give your Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound trial. The eff
feet of the first bottle was magical.
Those symptoms of weakness that I
was afflicted with, vanished like vapor
before the sun. I cannot speak too
highly of your valuable remedy. It is
truly boon to woman"
From Mrs. MELISSA PHILLIPS, Lex
ington, Ind, to Mrs. Pinkham:
'Before L began taking your medicine
I had suffered for two years with that
tired feeling, headache, backache, no ap-
petite, and q rundown condition of the
system! 1 could not walk across the

The morning of the day which Egerton

clear, with a little more breeze than some
Of his guests approved. The object of
the voyage was to visit the remains of an
old Norman castle, which crowned some
picturesque cliffs, about eight or nine
miles east of Fordsea-also to inspect a
curious rocky islet not far from it, on
which a modern lighthouse replaced the
Beacon of q Hermit, who in former days
devoted himself to keep it alive, and ac-
cording to the legend, built himself a
chapel without any human aid. The ruins
Of this remarkable edifce were still yisi-
BILE from the sea.
At breakfast a slight change of plans
took place-as Mabel suggested that she
feared she was too Indifferent q saiAor to
enjoy the excursion by sea-and' with a
pretty coaxing air, asked Callander to
drive her TO ~Ravenstone, which was near
er by land than by water. He consented
very readily, and Standish undertook to
escort Dorothy. The party was not very
large, but bright and sociable, though
Mrs. Callander senior, who honored it by
her presence, was somewhat snappish-
"t was so thoughtless of Mabel to ex.
pose her husband to the glare and sun on
that unsheltered roadr' she said, land
for a mere whim! Egerton, too, was
rather silent and cynical. when he did
speak.
