kept this up until he had taken 4S

Then people began to talk of the
grippe. Mr.. Boyce had a cold, so light
as to be scarcely noticeable; but he
Neclded that he was suffering from
grippe In its worst form. He bought
dozens OF bottles of expectorant. At
ahe same time he decided he needed
q tonic, and he-took 40 bottles.
He thought catarrh was developing
as q consequence of the grippe, and
bought patent remedies by the dozen
bottles. After reading treatise on
consumption, he decided his lungs were
IN danger, so he took some more ex-
pectorant and many bottles Of glycerin

were given trial.
Then he started on a new line. as a

THE BLUE AND THE GRAY

BY the flow of the inland river
Whence the fleets of iron had fed,
Whence the blades. of the grave-grass
culver.
Asleep are the ranks OF the dead: =
Under the sod and the dew;
Waiting the judgment day;
Under the one, the>Blue;
Under the other. the Gray.
These in the robings of glory,
Those in the gloom Of defeat;
All with the battle blood CORY,
In the dusk of eternity meet
Under the sod and the dew;
Waiting the judgment day;
Under the laurel. the Blue;
Under the willow, the Gray.
From the silence Of sorrowful hours
The desolate mourners go.
Lovingly laden with flowers,
Alike for the friend and the foe;-
Under the sod and the dew;
Waiting the judgment day;
Under the laurel. the Blue;
Under the willow, the Gray.
SO, with an equal splendor
The morning sun-rays fall,
With a touch impartially tender,
On the blossoms blooming for ALL
Under the sod and the dew;
Waiting the judgment day;
Broidered with gold, the Blue;
Mellowed with gold, the Gray.
So, when the summer calleth
On forest and field of grain,
With an equal murmur falleth
The cooling drops of the rain;
Under the sod and the dew;
Waiting the Judgment day;
Wet with the rain, the Blue;
Wet with the rain. the Gray.
Sadly, but not with upbraiding,
The generous deed was done;
In the storm of the years, now fading
No Drawer battle was won;
Under the sod and the dew;
Waiting the judgment day;
Under the blossoms, the Blue;
Under the garlands, the Gray
No more shall the war cry sever,
Or the winding rivers be red;
They Danish our anger forever
When the laurel the graves of our
dead
Under the sod and the dew;
Waiting for judgment day;
Love and tears for the Blue;
Tears and love for the Gray.

OUR SOLDIERS.

Pause, o nation, reunited
Pause and shed tear today
To the mem'ry of the soldiers
Dead for many and many May!
Dead and dust, perchance it may be
Dead and dust. but long ago
Marched away in flush Of manhood,
Glory girt-this dust below.
Marched away as brave men, hearing
Call of country, yours and mine,
From the hillside and the valley,
From the hemlock and the pine.
Hearts aleap and pulses bounding,
Loyal, whether gray or blue;
Loyal, whether cross or crescent;
Duty-that was all they knew
Oh. the glory of their story!
Oh, the graves that dot the plain!
Oh, the mournful tale of battles!
Oh, the partings and the pain!
Years and years the grass has bios
somed,
Faded, died, their graves upon;
Years and years, yet not forgotten.
Mem'ries such as theirs live on
And upon fame's sacred altar,
Writ mid deeds of heroes, glow
Names of these. our soldiers, sleep
ing.
soldiers neither friend" nor
foe
And as soldiers weave them garlands
Rose and lily Ger them spread;
Love and tears-a nations tribute
To a nations glorious dead.

CoNQUERoR AND CONQUERED

Have you noticed how gentle the
man who wore the conquering blue is
when he meets the one who donned
the conquered gray? The victor has
no sheer for the vanQuished. The late
war with Spain, which saw the sons
of the brothers who had once been
enemies stand shoulder to shoulder
in the face of common foe, has
but cemented anew the friendship
which began in 1865, and each sue
cessive Decoration day will see it
closer yet. The man who was right
can well afford to clasp the hand of
the one who acknowledges that he
was wrong in the past by giving up
his son to fight for the grand old
flag.

when he has faced death in a hun

young life to the purchase of freedom
rather than to the accommodating OF

DECORATION DAY TRAGEDY

Decoration day was hot that year,
and the roses, lilies and lilacs dropped
i'm the sun almost as soon as they
were laid upon the graves. Stout wo-
men mopped their faces constantly
and the children were inclined to be
fractions. The celebration had, how
ever, been a great success, and no one
was in a hurry to leave the GENE
terry.
A lean, fresh-faced elderly woman
stood at the entrance to well-keP'
lot and looked lovingly at the MOUNDS
of flowers which almost hid two OF
the mounds in it. She looked up as
someone paused behind her.
