in endeavoring to give a few personal
glimpses and individual flashlights on
the stirring scenes of two wars ;-the
times that tried men S souls,-and the
times that made, not all the world,
but all our land, akin.
In the gloomy days of 1861 to 1864,
although but mere boy, l gathered
with the grown-up men to do my small
part with the fife and drum,-some-
times playing the one and again beat
ing the other,-at the volunteer meet
ings with which the whole country re-
sounded. 1t is pleasurable to think
that even then 1 may have contributed
in some small degree to the enthusiasm
and success of those tumultuous as

it is certain that from the fervent
prayers and speeches and ringing rsso-

His dead body! He was already worse

of sublime patriotism was the same,
and they have prominently earned the
gratitude of the Nation and the bless
ing of Him in Whose footsteps they
have humbly trod.
The soldier who dies for his coun-

and seemingly more than he can fairly

often needy ones he leaves behind; but

So wreaths and garlands and chap

honored dead, and blossoms should

Mud Houses Built by wasps.

A naturalist has thus described the
habits of species of wasp that makes
its nest Of mud, says the Dundee Ad-
vertiser. The mud Of which their nests
is composed, he said, is often carried
for some distance, as 1t is essential for
them to use good, stiff clay. At the
edge Of some pond or stream you may
see these insects roll sticky little balls
out of the stiff mud with their strong
jaws. With this heavy load of mud
they rise slowly, and, having gained
some height they get their bearings
and fly in straight line to their nest.
In this way they resemble the bees in
deed, all the wasps and bees seem to
have wonderful faculty for flying
directly home from any point. When
the wasp has gained the place select
ed for building site she puts the tiny
ball Of mud against the wall Of the
building and rubs it tight by moving
her head from side to side very rapid
ly. The outer surface of the nest shows
series of rings, with sharply defined
lines between most of them, but the in
terror is always extremely smooth and
almost perfect cylinder. While build
ing her nest the insect continually runs
in and out Of the tiny cylinder, exam
lining it minutely with her "feelers."
If rough place is felt on the inner
surface she carafullv SETS tO work and
rubs it smooth. When the cylinder is
finished the wasp goes hunting for spi.

An extraordinary incident is connect
ed with Prof. Won Herkomers famous
painting, "The Last Muster" which
was the picture Of its year at the acad.
emy.
One morning soon after the exhibl-
tion was openel the artist was aston
ished to receive letter from lady, a
perfect stranger, who said she was
not aware until she saw "The Last
Muster at the academy on the pre-
vious day that her mother. then dead,
had ever sat to the professor for her
portrait.
Now, the figure in the picture was
painted solely from Imagination, and
the artist fastened to explain this fact
to his correspondent. She thereupon
asked for an appointment and took an
oil painting of her mother, asserting
that it was faithful representation of
that lady.
The academician was astonished t.
perceive that he had really portrayed
on his own canvas a fac simile of the
figure in this other painting, although
it was that of woman whom he had
never seen in his life.-London NJ. A. p.

some Of the benefits which we enjoy to-
udy under the institutions of our gov
ernment are results of the discussions
of those two great patriots beneath
this grand old tree? l brought myself
to think so, at any rate.
"A few miles from this historic ola
oak, an old resident informed me, is an
other tree which besides being an ali
cient landmark is something of a curl
sity. 1t is a chestnut tree, with a
trunk twenty-one feet In circumference,
from which about six feet from the
ground a white elm of large size has
grown. The chestnut trunk completely
incloses that of the elm, and the ex.
planation Of the curious association is
that at some time branch of the chest
nut was broken off, leaving cavity In
which In time mold and vegetable mat
ter collected and made suitable depth
of soil for the seed of the elm, which
lodged therein to germinate and grow
and become tree, a veritable part Of
its unprotesting host, the mammoth
chestnut trunk"

The custom of holding courts-martial
in the British navy after every case of
shipwreck has curious origin. In
1I41 the Wager, one of Commodore An
sons vessels, was wrecked off the coast
of Chile, most Of the crew being saved.
The rlen and some Of the junior Off
GERS held that they were no longer
amenable to discipline because their
pay ceased with the wreck, but the cap
tain, whose name was Davy Cheap, diff
fered, treated them as mutlneers and
shot one of his midshipmen. He was
then deposed, and most of the crew
made off in three of the boats. Later
when 1t was proposed to proceed
against the sO-called mutineers the Off
GERS Of the crown decided that the men
had been correct in their view. This
discovery led to the framing of Section
81 of the articles of war, which pro-
vides that in the case Of shipwreck. de-
struction or capture by the enemy
ship is held to remain in commission
pending inquiry by court-martial.
