He took a step toward the quarter

In the meantime the whole regiment
caught on and crowded around and
yelled and cheered themselves hoarse.
They all believed in and loved their
chaplain after that. There was always
big turnout of the boys when Rev.
Hamilton, of the Thirty-irst Indiana
was to preach.
The chaplain was reported by eye
witnesses to have been on the front
line in every battle in which his regi-
ment was engaged while he was chap
lain, and there were lots of them. It
was told me by an eyewitness that on
December Is at Nashville, in the late
afternoon, a charge was ordered to
take a rebel fort in front of the Thirty
first. The fort was surrounded by a
wide ditch and high banks of earth on a
hilltop, up which the charge had to be
made. The boys went up gallantly, the
chaplain with a carbine loading and
shooting in front. When Bob Crockett,
of company K, got on top of the fort,
and looking down IN the fort saw the
chaplain knocking down and ordering
Johnnies to surrender, in a stentorian
voice Crockett cried: ''Who ever saw a
chaplain in a fight before?'' and they
all cheered and gathered around TO heip

Eyes, my dear, certainly"
They're all three coming. She said
she was delighted to change their
plans so that they could take advan-

''The dickens she did!'' he groaned.
Juliet fumbled with a button of his
coat, meekly.

"Way round the table, can you?"
queried he, graveIy.
They went into the dining-room and
made elaborate plans, and Juliet
counted her best napkins. After all,
it was all right, they decided, with
a fine attempt at cheerfulness.
The next day Romeo-John, on his
homeward way, caught a glimpse of
a small woman that looked unmis-
takably like Juliet. She was hurry
ing out of Mr.. Pitchers market, and
he thought she glanced over her
shoulder guiltily. He tried to catch
her car, but failed. Probably it
wasn't Juliet, after all-what would
Juliet be doing down at Pitchers
again? Umph! there were other
small women in the world. But Ro-
meo-John knew there was but one
Juliet. He was unsurpassed when she
met him at the door and confessed.
