Daniel Morgan And The Baby.


When Arnold's expedition against
Quebec sailed for the Kennebec, IN
l775, it included no finer troops, and
none more picturesque, than the Vir-
ginia sharpshooters Of Daniel Nor
gan. who was afterwald famous as the
friend of Washington and the victor
of Cowpens. A pretty tradition OF
the march of the Virginians from the
camp at Cambridge to the rendezvous
at Newburyport belongs to an old
farmhouse set back little from the
main road on a shady lane of its own.
In its kitchen that September day
boy of nine was engaged in washing
dishes, half crying with vexatlon over
his task and the possibility of the SOL
diers passing without him seeing
them. His mother had been called
suddenly away, and had left him IN
charge, with an injunction not TO
leave the house until her return.
With the dlshpan before him,
blue tire fastened around him and one
foot frequently on the rocker of the
cradle drawn up beside him, he duu-
fully but despairingly clattered china
and sang to his baby sister.
A shadow in the doorway made
him look up and he beheld there two
lean, brown, towering fgures-one
that of the tallest and handsomest
man he had ever seen, several inches
over six feet-attired in buckskln
hunting shirts and with caps bearing
the motto Liberty or Death.
They were Daniel Morgan and one
of his lieutenants. They entered ana
asked for draft of water, but the
boy, hastily whisking off his apron,
invited them to sit down and p4rtake
of milk and cookies instead-an offer
which they readily accepted.
But the baby, as her brothers foot
| left the rocker, reused herself and be-
gan to cry so Justify that he hesltated
whether to try quiet her first or to 90
at once to the pantry. The mighty
Vlrginian captain did not hesitate at
all. He stopped with a laugh, ,scooped
the small lady out Of her cradle and
/ lifted her to such breathless height
that she stopped her complaints IN
sheer amazement and presently began
to squeal with delight.
Moreover, when the stranger food
was brought and her brother tried to
take her from her new friend, she
protested so tempestuously aud clung
so tightly to the fringes OF his shirt
that he laughed again and would not
let her 90, but ate aud drank one-
handed, with the baby stIll held on
his left arm. In consequence be was
somewhat awkward and let tAll a
plate, which WAS broken in halves.
After the departure Of the men this
breakage worried the boy, who feared
he might be punished for having
served his imposing gues's, as be bad
done. from the precious best china,
which no one but the mistress Of the
house might touch without permission.
On his mothers return, therefore
it was with much trepidation that
he toll his story, bat that strict, al
though patriotic, housekeePer forgave
and approved him. She had the bro
ken plate mended and for many years
it remained in the family and was
known to succeeding generations as
General Morgtn's plate"

You've been in fight, said his
mother reprovingly.
"Ob, not much of a one, answered
the boy.
did you count 100 as I told you
when you felt your angry passions
rising?"
"Oh, sure, returned the boy. Il
counted 100 all right, but 1 knocked
the other boy down first It's the
only safe way"

SORES AND
ULCERS

Sores and Ulcers never become chronic
unless the blood is in poor condition is
sluggish, weak and unable to throw oil
the poisons that accumulate IN 1t. The
system must be relieved OF the unhealthy
matter through the sore, and great danger
to life would follow should 1t heal before
the blood has been made pure and healthy
and all impurities eliminated from the sys-
TEN. S.SS. begins the cure by first cleans
ing and invigorating the blood, building
up the general health and removing from
the system a CONSTANT DRAIN
effete eTe mater matter. UP0H TIE SYSTEM.
When this has been accomplished the dis
charge gradually ceases, and the sore or
ulcer heals. 1t is the tendency of these old
indolent sores to grow worse and worse,
and eventually to destroy the bones. Local
applications, while soothing and to some
extent alleviate pain, cannot reach the seat
of the trouble S. S. S. does, and no matter
how apparently hopeless your condition,
even though your constitution has broken
down, it will bring relief when nothing
else can. 1t supplies the rich, pure blood
necessary to heal the sore and nourish
the debilitated, diseased body.
