William E. Curtis names as the three
most famous charges in military an
mails the charge of the Light Brigade
at Balaklava, that of the First Mime
sofa at Gettysburg, and Pickett's
Charge.
A correspondent of the Chicago Rec
ord-Herald claims that the charge CT
the Eighth Pennsylvania cavalry at
ChanceIlorville was as heroic a feat
of arms as any of them. And heroic
it was, for it launched few hundred
horsemen upon ten thousand vict2-
rious infantrymen of "1Stonewall"
Jackson and by reason Of the sacrifice
the Union generals We're able to form
new line of battle and to save the
federal army from immediate route.
The charge of the Light Brigade IS
chiefly famous because of Tennysol's
ballad. Otherwise, heroic though
was, it was but a minor military incl
dent. BY the standard of publicity,
the charge of the famous Old Guard
at Waterloo is famous Everybody
has read Victor Hugo's account Of it.
1t is the most famous episode Of the
most famous battle in history.
The charge of the First Minnesota
is most heroic episode, one Of de-
cisive Importance, too. as the charge
of the Light Brigade was not. But Of
equal heroism and importance was the
charge Of the Eighth Pennsylvania cav
airy at Charlottesville or the death
ride" of the Prussian cuirrassiers at
Mar-la-Tour
There have been great charges that
were not sacrifcial episodes or heroic
failures, such as Picket"s and CrOm-
wells Ironsides that swept Marston
moor and turned the tide at Naseby
Such charge was that of Marshal
Macdonald, which broke the Austrian
center at Wagram and redeemed for
Napoleon the defeat at Aspern, where
r. a similar attempt against the Aus
-rian center Marshal Lannes received |

ion and tenacious energy the charge

thus the child that should have bound

No man enjoys having his nose put

if the true correspondent in many a di-

shown that he was a small, lobster

THE NEGLECTED
HUSBANDS PLANT

who had no thought or time or inter
est in anything except the redfaced,
squalling thing in the cradle.
Such woman lives and moves and
has her being in the nursery. She re-
fuses to dress up because it is easier
to handle the baby in a frowsy wrap
per. She declines to go with her hus-
band because something might hap
pen to baby if she did. She gives up
her music because it wakens baby for
her to practice. She cannot talk or
think of anything but baby, and her
society becomes about as appetizing
and exhilarating as sterilized baby
food
The husband is utterly neglected. In
fact, he comes to exist only as a use
full and necessary puryeyor to baby's
needs, a provider of perambulators,
and embroideries, and frills, and doe
tors to His Royal Higness the Heir
Apparent.
Now, men except in exceedingly rare
instances, have not a crazy PARENTAL
passion as many women have a ma
ternal mania. The average man ac-
cepts child very calmly, and loves it
within reason. He wants to provide
for it; to see that it is well taken care
of; but he wants also some life be-
yond that.
Because there is a baby in the nurs-
cry doesn't keep him from wanting the
society of his wife, and the attentions
he has been accustomed to from her
Nor does it diminish his interest in
the theatre, or his desire to take his
wife out to little dinners and places Of
amusement.
The young mother, obsessed by little
Johnnie, fails to see this. She is sucI
a blind devotee of the cradle that she
thinks her husband doesn't mind how
she looks, or how she neglects him, d
how much she leaves him alone, be
cause it is all done for baby. Unfor
tuately hubby doesn't take this view
of the subject All he sees is that hi
wife has lost her looks, that she is M

Il have been a married man for ten

the coming of our little child. I, my
self, give our child all of a fathers

"All Of her love has gone to the child

June Is. 1911, deaths angel, came to Dr. Dales Sanitarium, Texar- kama, Ark, with a message for for our dear daughter, (Clara Mendenhall, Smith where she had been carried, for an operat- ton, which was done the even- ing before. Being the last resort for life. but alas! too late, for Septic Poison, had such a hold that skilled physicians could do nothitR more for her.
 The call was answered by a delivery of her Sainted Spirit to waited away to the shining courts in glory to receive her reward. An inheritance. incorruptible and undefiled, that fadeth not away prepared from the founda- tion of the world, for all who live as she did, there to meet her little Brother George T Menden- hall, who had several years ago passed over the dark chilly, chasm of death. Between Earth and Heaven, no doubt his little Angelic Spirit was a ministering angel, to her in flight to the sweet beyond, and was ready to shout praises with her as they pranced up the Golden Street, of the New Jerusalem, an nouncing that another one of our family had come up to stay with him. Methinks 1 could hear him say. This is sister Clara, who has come to stay with us until Papa Mamma, Ethel. Edgar. little John and Carl comes to be with us for. ever.
 Clara Young Mendenhall, daughter of K. c. and l.. L.. Mendenhall, vas born August F, 1890, at our old homestead, Nevada County. Ark. Lived there until twelve years old. Then moved with the family to
