During the civil war, as we'll as in
our late war with Spain, diarrhoea was
one of the most troublesome diseases
the army had to contend with. In
many instances it became chronic and
the old soldiers still suffer from it.

"Gray's Elegy" and "Genevieve" and
"Byron's Address to the Ocean and
"Hohenlinden," and such as there
were an inspiration to me as ! grew to
manhood. If I were teaching school 1
would have the boys and girls to recite
them. What book Of gems could be
made Of selections from the old au-
thors, such poems as have not been
written in fifty years and could not be
written now. What poet could ap-
proach such beauty Of language and
sentiment as that verse from Gray
"Full many gem Of purest ray serene
The dark unfathomed caves Of ocean
bear;
Full many flower is born to blush un-
seen
And waste it's sweetness on the desert
air."

beginning,
"And what is friendship but nsme,
A charm that lulls to Sleep"
or his sad warning to weaker sex
"Wben lovely woman atoops to folly
And learns too late thst men betray,
What art can soothe her melancholy,
What charm can drive her grief away;
The only ert her grief can smother
And stiie every burning sigh
And bring repentance to her lover
And wiring his bosom-is to die"
Then there is Tom Hoods "Song Of
the Shirt" that awakened all London,
and his other sweet, sad poem, "I Re-

those heroic poems, "The Burial Of

"Marco Bozaris," by Halleok. Never

Halleck, beginning
