THE SOLDIERS MONUMENT.

A monument for the soldiers.
And what will ye build it of
IAN ye build it of marble, or brass, or
bronze,
outlasting the soldiers love?
Tan ye giorify it with legends
As grad as their blood hath writ,
from the inmost shrine of this land of
thine
To the uttermcst verge Of it?
And the answer came: We would build It
Out Of our hopes made sure,
And out of our purest prayers and tears.
And out of our faith secure;
We would build it out of the great white
truths
Their death hath sanctiied,
And the sculptured forms Of the men In
And their faces ere they died.
And what heroic figures
Can the sculptor carve in stone?
Can the marble breast be made to bleed
And the marble lips to moan?
Can the marble brow be feyered?
And the marble eyes be graved
10 look tnelr ldSJ as IHe nag HOdlS past
On the country they have savedy
And the answer came: The figures
Shall all be fair and brave,
And, as BETTING, as pure and white
As, the stars above their gravel
The marble lips and breast and brow
Wherein the laurel lies,
Bequeath US right to guard the fight
OF the old flag in the skies.
A monument for the soldiers
Built of a peoples love,
And blazoned and decked and panoplied
With the hearts We built it of!
And see that We build it stately,
In pillar and niche and gate,
And high in pose as the souls OF those
1t would commemorate!

BLUE and GRAY.

"Oh, mother what DO they mean by blue
And what do they mean by gray?"
Was heard from the lips of little child
AS she bounded in from play.
The mothers eyes filled up with tears;
She turned to her darling fair
And smoothed away from the sunny brow
cts treasures Of golden hair
"Why, mothers eyes are blue, my sweet
And grandpa's hair is gray.
And the love we bear our darling child
Grows stronger every day"
But what did they mean" persisted the
child:
For l saw two cripples to-day;
And one of them said he fought for the
blue,
And the other he fought for the gray.
Now he Of the blue had lost a leg;
The other had but one arm.
And both seemed worn and weary and
sad.
Yet their greeting was kind and warm
They told me of battles in days gone by,
Till it made my young heart thrill:
The leg was lost in the Wilderness fight

Tuberculosis Gains 33 Per Cent in

Tuberculosis Gains 33 Per Cent in
Two Years.
That vigorous campaign against
tuberculosis has failed to check the
white plague was the charge made by
Nathan Straus, the New York philan-
thropist at the fifth annual meeting of
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis in
Washington.
Mr.. Straus backed up his assertion
by official statistics from the New York
health department, showing an in
crease OF S3 per cent IN two years in
cases of tuberculosis in the city that
Or Koch described as leading the
world in the fight against the disease.
The reason for this failure to make
Roadway, Mr. Straus declared, was
the neglect of the mischief wrought by
the tuberculosis dairy COW.

Strange Feathered Visitors Are Do
ing Much Damage to Trees.
A strange bird has descended on the
White House grounds in Washington,
and threatens to ruin the foliage. The
birds have appeared in large numbers,
and seem to feed entirely on the buds
of trees. They are partial to the great
elms on the north lawn. Policeman
Curtis, who is an expert on squirrels
and birds, in the grounds, never saw
this particular bird before, and is una.
BILE to give it name. 1t is about the
size of bluebird, and the feathers Of
the body and wings are those of blue
bird. The head, however, is brown,
shading to a reddish brown at the
neck. The new bird is belligerent, and
is making existence miserable for the
other feathered tribes Of the White
House grounds.

there are 100000 citizens of the

Mr.. Morrison declares this to be a
conservative estimate, end says that
these are the figures agreed upon at
an informal conference of the officers
of the American Federation of Labor,

President Gompers participated. This
statement is the consensus of most
careful estimates made by men who

And the arm on Malvern Hill.

They sat on the stone by the farm yard
gate,
And talked for an hour or more,
Till their eyes grew bright and their
hearts seemed warm,
With fighting their battles DER;
And, parting at last with friendly grasp,
In kindly, brotherly way,
Each called on God to speed the time
Uniting the blue and the gray"
Then the mother thought of other days
Two stalwart boys from her riven;
How they knelt at her side, and, lisping,
prayed
''Our Father who art in Heaven"
How one wore the gray and the other
the blue:
How they passed away from sight,
And had gone to the land where blue and
Are merged in colors of light.
And she answered her darling with golden
hair,
While her heart was sadly wrung,
With the thoughts awakened in that sad
hour
BY her innocent, prattling tongue;
1.-The blue and the gray are the colors of
God,
They are seen in the sky at even,
And many a noble, gallant soul,
Has found them passports to heaven"
