they have ever tried in the little cit

to start a boarding or roon,ins
house.
And nine out o. every ten of them
is certain that the city, any city. IS
the very wickedest of wicked places.
Back in the country, where they came
from, the big town was held up Il
them as a symbol of sin. The older
folks talked i'm low tones Of us snarCs
and pitfalls. of the sin and degiada-

town.
Why DO they come? Many of them
fail and drag themselves back to take
up life where they left il out on the
farms. The great majority manage To
live on the salaries they receive, or
the wages they are able to earn. y
few of them become wealthy and sue
cessful and are able To go back and
buy up a whole township around the
old homestead if they desire.

The Dying Sslliers Lsneat
Contributed


A soldier from Missouri, in early man
hoods prime,
Lay among the dead and dying, in Miss
issippis cline,
On the bloody field Of Corinth, his life
was ebbing fast,
And comrads faint and bleeding. in
crowds mere hurrying past.
He saw his young companions. the
friends of earlier days,
Retiring from the conflict, before the
cannons blaze,
He saw borne aloft all tatered, the
stand and bare ensign,
The flag he had carried, from near the
Kansas line.
A soldier stopped beside him, and rails
ed his dropping head,
When in feeble accents, the youthful
soldier said.
Farwell my friends and comrads, / bid
you all adieu,
Though you may shortly follow, III ne'er
return to you.
With m the war is over, my marching
is at an end,
And tbs dying message, bp you fain
would send,
To bear it to my kindred, and those
dear friends OF mine,
For have friends and kindred upon
the Kansas line.
/ have an aged mother, you know that
mother we'll,
Bear to her those tidings, how in
battle fell,
And tell her remember, in anguish
her advice.
To live at home in quiet, not join the
rebel price.
Oh il had but headed, the good ad-
vice she gave,
need not now be Fastening, to fill
rebels grave,
But hee'ed another consul, and left
that home of mine.
That home OF peace and quiet, upon
the Kansas line.
There was black beauty,I need not
call her name,
She lured me from my duty, and fan
ned the rebel flame,
She said no hand with hers, ever could
unite,
Uuless it was found boldly, defending
southern rights.
Oh southern rights alas, l knew not
what they were,
l sacrificed my judgement, before the
cannons blaze,
! sacrificed my Judgement, for this
beauties magic shrine,
Andleft my home of comfort, upon the
Kansas line.
But now his reason failing, the soldier
ceased to speak,
Upon the field Of battle, where greek
had met with greek,
His life was made an offering, unto
the god of war,
His life was made an offering, Alas
alas what for.
