A Wharf.-The INCIDENT
Death of Miss Laura Y. Arnold
Recalls Her Reply to Milroy.

Winchester, Va, Jan. 10.-Miss
Laura V. Arnold, who died su lden-
Nv at Cum berland. Md, yesterday,
was a native Of Winchester,' and is
remembered here because of her
devotion to the Confederacy AMI
because of an incident which has
Income almost as famous through
the South as the alleged Barbara
Frietchie episode has through the
North.
The Federal troops under Gener-
al Milroy. we're in possession OF
Winchester, and the Federal COM
mander, one day, noticing a fine
Jersey COW belonging to Miss Ar
nold's father, promptly confscated
the animal and would not give it
up until Miss Arnold, who was
known to have rendered the Co. .
federates valuable service, would
take the oath of allegiance. She
replied: IF you think YOU can
suppress the Southern Confedcracy
by Keeping John Arnold's old COW,
you can do so, but | will never take
she oath"
Her spirit so impressed the stern
Federal commander that the jersey
COW was promptly restored to her,
and the Union soldiers were order
ed meyer to modest the Arnold
household"
The above account Of the death
of Miss Arnold recalls to my mind
the fact that | knew her very well,
and perhaps there are other cd
soldiers in Highland who often
think of her kindness to them.
Well do | remember her kindness
to me when a prisoner quartered
in the court house at Winchester.
She would take no denial from the
officers in charge but fed me on the
best she could procure.
Many of her brave and daring
deeds are remembered by me and
many other old soldiers.

Indigestion is often caused by over
eating. An eminent authority says
the harm done thus exceeds that from
the excessive use Of alcohol. Eat all
the good food you want but don't over
load the stomach. A weak stomach
may refuse to digest what you eat.
Then you need q good digestant like
Kodol, which digests your food with.
out the stomach's aid. This rest and
the wholesome tonics Kodol contains
soon restore health. Dieting unneces-

the land buried deep under the snow.
the fiords frozen and the whole coun-
try tight in the grasp Of the ice, there
are many quaint and pretty Christmas
customs. Perhaps the most interesting
of all are the nesting and feeding Of
the birds. A few days before Christmas
new straw and hay are put into every
nest that can be found in the hollows
of trees and the caves of houses and
barns, and straw is scattered about
over the frozen snow to be carried
away by the birds themselves. Then,
in every available spot on the matched
roofs, on house tops. window stills and
doorsteps, are strewn large measures of
grain. 1t is a pretty sight to see the
focks of birds swooping down to this
feast. So they feed royalty during the
holiday times. making up for many
days of scant living. for it is hard to
find anything to eat where everything
is frozen SO fast. e5as

The Yu1etide Log,

A custom at one time prevalent in
England and still observed in some Of
the northern districts of the old coun-
try is that of placing an immense log
of Wood-sometimes the root of a great
tree-in the wide chimney place. This
is often called the Yule log. and it was
on Christmas eve that it was put on
the wide hearth. Around it would
gather the entire family, and it's en-
trance was the occasion of a great deal
of ceremony. There were music and
rejoicing, while the one authorized to
light it was obliged to have clean
hands. 1t was always lighted with q
vious year. .
