A Memorial
Day Story
By ANDREW C EWING
'Memorial day has come around
again," said an old fellow to another
at the soldiers' home, "or Decoration
day, as we used to call it when we
first started ' putting flowers on the
graves of our dead comrades. It was
a solemn day then, but now that near
ly two generations have grown up
since the war "and that struggle has
passed into history the day has become
a regular, holiday."
"That's right," said the other old
chap, grinding on a quid of tobacco.
"You don't expect every generation
that comes on is going to mourn for
men who died long before the new
comers were born, do you?"
"No. I don't, but somehow Memo
rial day brings it all back as fresh as
if it- were yesterday. I can see my
Nanny now just as she looked the day
I come out of that wood the day after
thtj battle of Seven Pines and she
caught sight of me. the raggedest. dirti
est, hungriest, bloodiest, ghostliest
young ragamuffin you ever saw."
"By the bye," interrupted the other
vet. "I went down into Virginia last
summer and all over Seven Pines. It
was a cornfield when we fought there.
Now it's overgrown with a forest of
trees. It reminded nie of the genera
tions that have grown up since the
war."
"Just so. That day. when I saw Nan
standing by the well, I was about as
near gone up as I ever was iu my life.
I'd been taken prisoner by the John
nies, but before they could get' us
where they could corral us I'd man
aged to slip away. I knew if 1 didn't
get some help and some sustenance
I'd die right there in the wood, for in
addition to having nothing to eat I'd
got n bullet in my leg. and I couldn't
get any help or food unless I trusted to
the girl. If I trusted her the chances
were she'd give me away to the Con
federates mid I'd get back into Libby,
where I'd been once before, and I'd
rather die than do that.
"Well, there was nothing to do but
risk it. So I stepped out before her.
You'd ought to seen her look. It was
like suddenly comiug on to a scare
crow. At first she was frightened:
then she laughed When she laughed
at me I was all broken up, and a
worse expression than before came
over my face that made her laugh
again. ''Then all of a sudden she began
to pity me. and, sobering down, she
asked:
" 'Are you Yank or Johnnie? You're
so ragged and dirty and bloody I don't
know which you are."
" 'I'm Yank.' I admitted. 'I suppose
you'll give me away.'
" 'Give you away! Who would want
such a looking thing as you?'
" 'There's lots like me in Libbj
prison.' -
" 'What's the matter with you?'
"'Oh, nothing, only sick and tired
and hungry and wounded.'
" 'Is that all?"
"The humor of it struggled with her
sympathy. She told me that her folks
were strong Confederates and she dare
not take me into the house, but the
hayloft would make a good hospital,
and she put her arm under mine and
helped me around, skirting the wood
so that one could get into the barn
without being seen, and she almost
had to carry me up the steps to the
hayloft.
"You'd better believe that hay was

Riflemen- from all parts of the world will take part in the international rifle shout at Camp Perry. Ohio, Aug. 15 to
Sept. 9. 'This tournament will be the biggest thing of its kind ever held. American rifle cracks who won internation

soft. I've' slept on nair matresses
since, but none of 'em ever gave way
under me like that hay. But I had to
wait a long while for a breakfast . You
see. Nan had to wait till she could
sieal.out of the house with the proven-d.-r.
And when she did she couldn't
bring anything hot. I'd have given
my wounded leg for a cup of our
United States coffee.
"Well. Nan nursed me in that loft
for a week or more. . I couldn't tell
how long It was, since I didn't take
any accrlunt of time. She stole some
.old clothes her brothers had worn out
and brought 'em to me and kept my
leg bandaged and did a lot of things
for me. I suppose if was taking care
of me that- way that got her used to
having me round, for when' there was
no more excuse for my staying and 1
thought I'd better light out she cried.
"And Memorial day's come again!
I must be off to put these flowers on
Nan's grave.- I've been putting 'em on
for ten years now, and it won't be long
before the few boys that, are left Will
be" putting 'em on mine. I'd like to
Hve till Memorial day in '15. It will
then be fifty years since I was dis
charged and went to that farm in Vir
ginia and we were married. We went
out to the barn where she had nursed
me. and I lay on the hay just to see if
it was as soft as when I sank down on
It that day I first saw Nan. She told
her folks how I looked when she
brought me in there and how she'd
stolen things to take out to me, and
they couldn't understand how she could
have managed it without getting
caught. Truth is. those -times in the
south made everybody rely on their
wits, and there was more deceiving
done in those four years than in a
whole century of peaceful times. .
"1 brought Nan back north with me.
and a mighty good wife she made for
a matter of nearly forty years, and the
rest of it since she left me I don't
count for anything.
"Well, so long. As 1 was saying. I
must take these flowers and put them
on her grave. You fellows can take
care of the boys in the cemetery back
of rhe house. So long. Don't forget
the Hags."
One of those dear lady friends of
ours who take a particular interest
in other people's affairs got on a car
and sat down beside a quiet looking
man whose face was badly pitted.
"Why. you poor man!' she ex
claimed. "How you must have suf-
i fered! How long ago did you have
the smallpox?"
"Madam," was the seriously spoken
reply, "what evidently drew your at
tention are not pits3 of smallpox. I
had these put on by a beauty spe
cialist to keep my face from skidding
when I eat watermelon." Chicago

Figured In Cold Dollars.
"The value of human life isn't sup
posed to be figured in cold dollars,"'
said'a builder, "but people don't gen
erally know that in every big build
ing erected in New York the price of
human life is a consideration figured
in the estimate.
"In a building of so many stories
find of a certain sort of construction
the contractors figure that a few work
men will be killed and there will have
to be settlement with the families.
Maybe no architects or contractors
would admit that this is true, but it's
a fact nevertheless." New York Sun.
Very Democratic.
"Is" she the right sort to be a con

A popular humorist on his deathbed
called his son to him and said:
"My. son, I can't leave you any mon
ey for my' money i spent as fast as it
came in. I can't leave you any fame,
for fame cannot be shared. But there's
an heirloom 1 can and will leave you,
an heirloom handed , down from my
great-grandfather t. my father and
thence to me. and this heirloom, prop
erly utilized, will keep you in affluence
and honor, my son. even as it has kept
me and my forbears these many gen
erations." So saying, the humorist placed in
the young man's hands a worm eaten
and dog eared copy of "Joe Miller's
Joke Book" and passed quietly away.
Before the Bar.
The terms "admitted to the bar" and
"before the bar" are of English origin.
The "bar" in question is the barrier or
railing which separates the judge and
the other olhYers of the court from the
rest of the courtroom. In earlier days
thp parties to a suit presented them
selves before the bar, accompanied by
their counsel. A lawyer, after keeping
the required number of terms at the
inns of court and passing a satisfac
tory examination, was then entitled to
appear before the bar on behalf of a
client, or. in other words, be was "ad
mitted to the bar." The English
word barrister suggests the technical
meaning ot this word.

I..C. S. An (Ethical Power
Now, .gentlement, just for a moment, I would speak to you, not as
an educationalist, but as a preacher of manhood and a lover of his
kind. The question of the use of alchohol by the student when study
ing, has carried me back to the thought. The International Correspond
ence Schools are not simply educational, they are ethical; they not
only make foramen and craftsmen and draftsmen, but they mak
MEN in capital letters. For you can never awaken any ons to Uis
commercial possibilities without stirring up all other possibilities so
cial, patriotic, philanthropic, intellectual, moral. The moment you suc
ceed breaking up one area of inertia you set vibration moving through
every part of the being and all kinds of dormant and stagnant powers
are set into .healthy motion. When a man's mind gets engrossed with
an intellectual occupation and he finds that he has a grip upon the
laws and forces oi the universe, the saloon, the vulgar and degrading
i.'Ow, the curb-stone loafing, and the hours of inane and ribald waste
all seem to be unworthy of him and his self-respect clothes him in a
protective armor which helps to keep his entire manhood inviolate. A
great American preacher used to speak much about "the expulsive pow
er of a new affection," and, having as your life work the duty of both
supplying and developing this "new affection" the love cf the best, by
which the;, unworthy and base will be expelled, perhaps unconsciously
but surely, from many and many a man. Success to you in your work!
