A War Story.

An old confederate soldier was up
set this morning by the conversation
between two young men. He was
passing as they met. He saw them
greet each other cordially, and heard
one say: ~ am glad, so glad, to see
you again; this is the first time L have
seen you since the war" The old vet
eran looked at them for moment,
and as he walked off he
was heard to say that the war
was over before either of them kids
was born" A bystander suggested to
him that they were soldiers of the
late war between the United States
and Spain. The old confederate did
not seem pleased with the explanation,
for he remarked that thatwas not sure
enough war and passed on, leaning
heavily upon his cane.
