UNDER A FLAG OF TRUCE.
A Reunion and Compact Between tho
Blue and the Gray.

A Reunion and Compact Between the
Blue and the Gray.
NY father was Il private in the
Twenty-sixth Michigan and often told
the following story. although I was
never wise enough to make Il note Of
the date or the name of the engage
ment. There can be no doubt, how
ever. Of the substantial accuracy OF
the tale.
There had been fighting. but flag
Of truce had passed from the Con-
federate to the Union lines. and firing
was suspended. The lines were close
together and both behind cover. As
the white flag passed out Of sight to-
ward headquarters the lines simply
flowed together. meeting in the vacant
space between. Officers on both sides
tried to prevent it. but their efforts
were fruitless. Little groups formed
here and here and began to barter.
The grays had tobacco. and the blues
had coffee and a little sugar, and
trade was lively for time. Then
they fell to discussing other things,
and to understand their conversation
it ought to be explained that the prac-
tice of firing on picket line was re-
garded by these soldiers, hardened
though they were by the awful sights
Of dozen bloody fields. as little bet
ter than murder. Said gray:
"Why do you fellows fire on picket? =
Blue-Why do you fire on picket?
Gray Well. we don't. only when
that old Colonel B. from North Caro-
lima is officer of the day: then we
have to. He makes us do it. But l
tell you. Yank, We'll shoot high: Yes
Yank, We'll shoot high!
The flag of truce came back: the
negotiations had failed. The lines re-
formed. and firing began again. Once
more poor humanity referred to the
rife and bayonet the questions it could
settle in no other way. But who can
doubt that in the hearts of all who
witnessed the dramatic scene there
was less bitterness than before the
truce? Theirs was no vulgar. sordtd
quarrel; no bitter, personal vendetta
Each side was pledged to the support
Of antagonistic principles. to maintair
which they had staked their lives. but
they had no quarrel with their op
ponents as men.-Youth's Companion.

Military Expert Says Germans Are in
. - Difficult Position,


Difficult Position.
Bordeaux, Sept. 16.-"The retention
of the line of the Aisne, north OF
Rheims, is of capital Importance to
the enemy" says the Temps military
review.
"The distance between Rethel and
Mezieres is only twenty-five miles.
A short step forward by our troops
ynd the German army's communica-
tions in Belgium northwest Of the
Meuse would be definitely cut.
"The sole line of retreat left open
is by the territory north of Verdun.
This country is densely wooded and
difficult, but is not impracticable. 1t
has, besides, the great advantage of
being the shortest route to Moselle
by Metz and Treves, where the enc
my could oppose a serious obstacle
if pursued and at the same time OBJ

vousness or constant, dead tired
feeling. Avert the serious kidney
diseases, treat the weakened kidneys
with Doan's Kidney PILLS. A rem
edy especially for sick kidneys. En-
