Beyond he Smile

Written for the Review by F. w. WhitweII Last night l went to the ball. The soldiers ball, so gayl The men three-deep at the wall! We danced till break of day. But Death stood out in the wind l heard it moan and call He lifted up the blind And looked within the hall. saw my true love smile, But ever in his eye
 The shadow lay the while. He heard the same as 1. And Death and the desert gale Came rushing Ter the land. We heard the shrapnel hail In swish of sun-dried sand. And in the big drums boom The distant ocean roar With hidden deadly doom Came crashing to the door. Oh pale lips, laughing-all! Oh brave of heart, how gayI went to the soldiers ball And danced till break of day.

'The Land Of France! TheVery Words
 Sounded in His Ears Like Bugle CaL'

Our soldier boys who sail for France doubtless feel the same way upon their first glimpse of those ia nous shores that the young English squire, Alleyne Edricson, felt 800 years ago, when he sailed from England with his master, the great little knight, Sir Nigel Loring, to fight in the Hundred Years war. Conan Doyle, in his matchless book, "The White Company" tells in his own inimitable way of his heroes's impressions from the first view of France, the wayward queen among the nations, as follows:
 From the Sea
 A huge sombre cloud. flecked with ivid blotches, stretched over the whole seaward skyline, with long ragged streamers whirled out in front of it. Far behind them the two galleys lab ored heavily, now sinking between the rollers until their yards were level with the waves, and again shooting up with a reeling, scooping motion until every spar and rope stood out hard against the sky. On the left the low lying land stretched in dim haze, rising here and there into a darker blur which marked the higher capes and headlands. The land of. France! Alleyne's eyes shone as he gazed upon it. The land of France!-the very words sounded as the call of bugle in the ears of the youth of England. The land where their fathers had died, the home of chivalry and of knightly deeds, the country of gallant men, Of courtly women, of princely buildings, of the wise, the polished end the saint ed. There it lay, so still and gray beneath the drifting wrack-the home of things noble and of things shame ful-the theatre where g new name From his bosom to his lips came the crumpled veil, and he breathed a VOW that if valor and good will could raise him to his lady's side. then death alone should hold him back from her.
 The Landing
 It was on the morning of Friday, the eight-and-twentieth day of November, two days before the feast of St An drew, that the cog and her two pris- oners after a weary tacking up the Girondo and the Garonne, dropped an- chor at last in front of the noble city of Bordeaux With wonder and ad- miration, Alleyne, leaning over the bulwarks, gazed at the forest of masts, ! the swarm of boats darting hither and thither on the bosom of the broad ! curving stream. and the gray cres- cent-shaped city which stretched with many a tower and minaret along the western shore. Never had he in his quiet life seen so great a town, nor was there in the whole of England, save London alone, one which might match it in size or in wealth. Here came the merchandise of all the fair countries which are watered by the Garonne and the Dordogne-the cloths of the south, the skins of Guienne, the wines of the Medoc-to be borne away bO A1uli, bACISi' DaA tAuOueA' Bristol or Chester, in exchange for the wools and woolfels of England. Here too dwelt those famous smelters and welders who had made the Bordeaux steel the most trusty upon earth. anu could give a temper to lance or to sworn which might mean dear life to its owner. Alleyne could see the smoke of their forges reeking up in the clear morning air. The storm had died down now to a gentle breeze,
