THE SOLDIERS LIFE.
Only to stand in the red of the fray.
Np1v RI Hoft1a Gov rrIa.x, 49,,


Only to stand in the red OF the fray.
Only to battle for glory, you say;
Only to leap to the bright song of death,
Murm ring, My country!" with fast deeting
breath;
This is the life OF the soldier, you dream,
Wreathed with the flag in the battles red gleami
Night on the road and the mud to his hipsl
Visions OF little ones leaning with lips
Just to be kissed through the dream and desire
Sweetheart and home hearts and love by the fire
This is the life of soldier, to fare
Far from the tenderness waiting him there.
Mourn on the march and the war drums ahead,
Beating the call to the battle, the tread
OF legions gone down in the ranks in the van.
On to the front, file by file, man by mani
Soldier, so valiant, so brave and so true
Honor and glory to yours and to you!
Noon on the field and the battles fierce heat
Planned to the faces unfaltered that meet
Death in the flash of the shot and the shell,
The crash OF the cannon, the red, roaring hell;
Still meath the folds of the flag doth he fight,
True to his country and true to the right!
Night on the hills and, oh, the wide eyes
Under the shadow and grief of the skies!
Night in the hamlets where broken hearts wait
In vain for the heroes that fought against fate!
This is the life of the soldier-some time
wreath for tribute and rhyme

"there is no fool like an old fool" This

and 60. eff" he says, "a careful ex-

the ages of those who were held re-
spOnsible by the verdict of mankind
for such lamentable issues, there will
be found strange coincidence in the

Here is an interesting and practically
ineXhaustitle field for investigation.
Politicians who are "agin the govern

administration to the sinister influence
Of some boss who was passing through
the fatal period at the time, and ere
grettable incidents" of all kinds, in
war or peace, may be traced to their
true origin. In time no doubt we
shall appreciate the necessity of re,

they have passed the age of alteration.
