for 113 days. There was not a day or
night in which there were no soldiers
slain. The screeching shells burst
over our heads while we were Sleep

diers had become so used to this con-

consequence of the fitful and random
firing at night.
In that period of 113 days there were
10 sizable battles fought. In one at

JOY that came over the armies of Sher-

had surrendered and that Grant had
sent Lees soldiers home to begin life
anew; that Johnston had surrendered

He may relinquish some big thing
without a growl; his conduct in a
great remuneration may be character
lied by the same exemplary patience
which marks women at such a time:
but, should the sting of unaccustomed
poverty be so severe as to take from
him any of the trifles which he treats
as a necessity, he becomes morose,

! THE OLD
] ROCKING CHAIR
: A Memorial Day Story ;
. BY OLIVIA BARTON STROHM
A Memorial Day Story

- N bench on her back porch
MITNM sat Mrs. White-very stiff,
MWIMB very uncompromising The
MSGB morning glory vines,
WY Blown by the wind, played
in checkered light and
shade over the porch; over her tense,
upright figure, topped with its crown
of silver hair; over the sunburnt face
of young man who stood near twirl-
ing his hat.
The May sunbeams stole as far as
the door where, just within the screen,
girl was seated, cracking nuts.
There was a vacant rocking chair
on the porch; suddenly it began to
move in the wind and reminded Mrs.
White of her manners which, in the
excitement of the interview, she had
forgotten.
Take chair, Henry"
But the young man, in no mood for
g truce, ignored the invitation. Then
you won't let me have Eleanor" he
said.
She answered him as bluntly: No,
Henry; you're a good boy and all that,
but you're not my choice"
He shrugged his shoulders. Whose
choice, did you say?"
At the sound of his voice the crack
ing of nuts in the kitchen ceased.
Mrs. White took up her shawl and
ran her fingers through the fringe.
Don't be sarcastic, Henry. l mean
what l say-my choice. Eleanor has
given me her word Of honor that she
will not marry without my consent"
From within the witchen door there
came a sharp sound of a pan falling.
1t made the youth start nervously; the
grandmother laughed; THAT is what
the men all say. They never seem
to realize that the girl who has
sense of duty toward an old woman
is best worth winning"
Henry walked slowly to the porch
steps, then turned. You see, it's just
this way, Mrs. White; 1t isn't a ques-
ton of whether Eleanor's worth win
ming, or loves me, or anything else.
All l know is, that love her, and
am too crazy to think of anybody or
anything but her. l suppose l ought
to say Id Quit, but" he went to the
other end of the porch from whence
he could get view of the girl seated
within-the girl whose eyes met his.
But | can't promise you; good-by."
And although he addressed Mrs.
White, he looked beyond her through
the doorway, backing slowly to the
steps. Then he turned and walked
off down the garden path, attended by
a sentinel row Of sunfowers.
Eleanor went on with her work. Her
grandmother pulled at the fringe a
few moments, then she went to the
door. you heard what Henry said?"
she asked.
Eleanor nodded. The silence, and
tell-tale redness in her cheeks and
eyes, spoke volumes.
Have you got enough nuts for the
cake filling?" the'old lady said after
pause.
"Yes'm, they're all done" and
Eleanor, gathering up her apron full
of shells in one hand, and the dish
in the other, rose and went into the
pantry, glad to escape conversation.
Her grandmother returned to the
perch. The chair rocked in the wind,
but she needed not its invitation, ia.

Saved From Being a Cripple for Life.
Almost six or seven weeks ago ]

rheumatism" writes Mrs. Louis Nc
Key, 913 Seventh street, Oakland, Cal.
"It struck me in the back and extend
ed from the hip of my right leg down
to my foot. The attack was so severe
that l could not move in bed and
was afraid that should be a cripple
for life.
about 12 years ago I received a.
sample bottle of your Liniment but
never had occasion to use it, as l
have always been well, but some
thing told me that Sloans Liniment
would help me, so l tried it. After
the second application l could get
up out of bed, and in three days
could walk, and now feel we'll and
entirely free from pain.
"My friends were very much sur
prised at my rapid recovery and I
was only too glad to tell them that

All through the night-all through the
North
Speed doubtful tidngs back and forth:
Through North and South from dusk til,
day,
A sundered people diverse pray.
So gradual sink the deliberate stars.
The sun doth run the laggards down.
At sleep still meadows burst the bars,
And flood with light the steepled town.
Blow! bugles of the cavalry,
Blow! bugles of the cavalry, blow!
Forward the infantry, row on row!
While every battery leaps with life,
And swell the tongueless throats the
strife!
