The Glory of War.

The glory of war stands out when
you think Of war, not as romance or
duty or sacrifice or idea, but as work.
Bill and Tommy and Jean and Hans
on the trenches may curse at the dip
lomats who have brought them into
the mess, grumble at the officers who
lead them into death traps, at the
commissariat that underfeeds them,
at the orderlies who come too late
with their stretchers and morphine ;
but that is precisely the same way In
which a man responds to his employer,
his foreman, and his grocer and butch
er, In peace time. Few of us, in the
normal life, relish the particular job
set for US, but the job as whole is
something which will not admit of
question. Suppose we do ask the men
in the trenches why they are fighting
and they cannot tell us why. What
then? They are fighting because for
the time being war Is work.-From the
Atlantic.

The Silver Dollar.

! Although the silver dollar is almost
daily increasing in intrinsic value, the
policy of holding it in the vaults and
permitting it to be represented in cir
culation by paper silver certificate
is to be continued. Throughout the
greater part Of the United States the
silver dollar is almost curiosity. Not
so in the Missouri valley, however,
where one is likely at any time to be
handed three or four in the breaking
Of S. bill. Nobody has thus far ex-
planned why the silver dollar should
cling to circulation in this particular
quarter, but travellers from other Sec
lions as rule are glad that it does

the French; and then, when they had
worked down, and had that long talk
ing time at the bottom Of the set, he
said boldly, little pale, she said, as
she told me the story, years after:
sand what do you hear from home,
Mrs. Graff?"
And that splendid creature looked
through him. Jove! how she must
have looked through him! ''Home 4!
Mr.. Nolan!!! / thought you were the
man who never wanted to hear Of
home again." and she walked directly
up the deck to her husband, and left
poor Nolan alone, as he always was.
He did not dance again.
I cannot give any history of him in
order; nobody can now; and, indeed,
am not trying to. These are the ira
ditions, which 1 sort out, as believe
them, from the myths which have been
told about this man for forty years.
The fellows used to say he was the
''Iron Mask" and poor George POns
went to his grave in the belief that
this was. the author of "Junius," who
was being punished for his celebrated
libel on Thomas Jefferson. Pons was
not very strong in the historical line.
A happier story than either of these !
have told is Of the war. That came
along soon after. / have heard this
affair told in three or four ways, and,
indeed, it may have happened more
than once. But which ship it was on
I cannot tell. However, in one, at
least, of the great frigate duels with
the English, in which the navy was
really baptized, 1t happened that a
round shot from the enemy entered
one of our ports square, and took right
down the officer Of the gun himself,
and almost every man Of the gums
crew. Now you may say what you
choose about courage. but that Is not
nice thing to see. But as the men
who were not killed picked themselves
up, and the surgeons people were car
rying off the bodies, there appeared
Nolan, in his shirt sleeves, with the
hammer In his hand, and, just as If he
had been the officer, told them off with
authority, who should go to the cock
pit with the wounded men, who should
stay with him, perfectly CHEEKY, and
with that way which makes men feel
sure all is right and is going to be
right. And he finished loading the
gun with his own hands, aimed it, and
babe the men fire. And there he
stayed, captain of that gun, keeping
those fellows in spirits, till the enemy
struck, sitting on the carriage while
the gun was cooling, though he was
exposed all the time, showing them
easier ways to handle heavy shot, max
ing the raw hands laugh at their own
blunders, and when the gun cooled
again, getting it loaded and fired twice
as often as any other gun on the ship
The captain walked forward, by way
Of encouraging the men, and Nolan

ladies they had the family Of the
American consul, one or two travellers
who had adventured so far, and nice
bevy of English girls and matrons, per-
haps Lady Hamilton herself.
Well, different officers relieved each
other in standing and talking with No
Ian in friendly way, so as to be sure
that nobody else spoke to him. The
dancing went on with spirit, and after
while even. the fellows who took this
honorary guard of Nolan ceased to fear
any contretemps. Only when some
English lady--Lady Hamilton, as l
said, perhaps. called for set of
american dancers an odd thing hap
pened. Everybody then danced con-

he did not announce the name Of the
dance; he merely bowed, began on
the air, and they all fell to, the Off
GERS teaching the English girls the

had no name.
But that is not the story I started
to tell. AS the dancing went on, No
Ian and our fellows all got at ease, as
1 said, so much so that it seemed quite
natural for him to bow to that splendid

He did it so quickly that Shubrick
who was by him, could not hinder

to say he must leave Mr.. Nolan to her

An all-American idea has been taken
up and is being exploited by the manu-
facturers Of high-class sweaters. II Is
the introduction Of decorations that
look like and are inspired by the bead
work and other ornamental work done
by American Indians on their gar
ments. It Is odd that this source of
inspiration has not been more freely
used, because It belongs to our own
country and Is distinctive and pic
turesque.
Anyone having a poor opinion Of the
ornamental beadwork and feather
work done by the Indians will gain re-
spect for them by looking into the mat
ter. In museums there are collections
Of their headdresses and garments
that are surprising. They have Law
ished patient work on them and their
designing and color work are worth
studying. .
One Of those new sweaters that
carry the Imagination back to the days
Of the pioneers is shown at the left Of

fine doeskin, slashed into fringe at
the bottom, 1t Is Of oyster-white silk,
with deep fringe Of silk about the

known for her patriotic war service;
her aide, Major Cakes, and small
group Of friends, including Miss Mar
jorie Brown of Atlanta, Ca. daughter
of one Of the leading men Of the south,
end q relative Of the president, were
discussing women's part in the war
and the importance Of enlisting the
effort, talent, and activity Of every
woman in the country. The need OF
organization and direction Of that time
and talent not already devoted to def
pite war work was recognized. and
out Of the discussion came plans for
conserving the patriotic effort Of every
patriotic woman, and more especially
the young women Of the country. The
"army" to be recruited was designated
the Sunshine Division" Its scope Of
service is limited only by the ability
of the enlisted women to serve, and
there Is no woman ineligible for serv.
