THE CHURCH BACK HOME.
When the big pipe organ's awellln' an'
the city choir sings,
An' you almost hear the swlshln of the
lovln' angels' win go.
An't the congregation's musln' on the
proncness for to sin,
Sort o leanln' listless, wattfn' for the
.1 1"-MW W UVKIIIfl
preacher to begin;
, rn ? !,,"shitha,,pcn that x c,cRn
forget the nlacc.
An' 'again I'm meek nn lowly 'fore a
throne of savin' grace;
A throne that wasn't nestllu' 'neath a
Bplrc of a dome.
But the sinners sought their Savior in
that little church back home.
When we hnd protracted mcctln's, why,
'twould done you good to hear
The congregation slngln' with a blend o'
voices clear,
How the "Rock of Ages" towered like a
shell'rin"sort o' wall,
An' our souls soared up to glory since
the Rock was cleft for all.
Bv'ry foccwas wreathed with sweetness,
an' we always had n smile
For the stranger, saint or sinner, In the
pew across the aisle;
For a diamond's often gathered from the
commonest of loam.
An' we didn't mlntl the stUn' in the little
church back home.
.There were weddln'a where-thc neigh
bors gathered lu from far an' wide,
An' the boys looked on in envy while
their sisters kissed tho bride;
There were fun'rals, too, where neigh
bors didn't feel ashamed to cry
When they laid to rest the sleeper In the
little yard close by.
Each pew seems sort o' sacred, an' the
lowly pulpit there
'Pears like a holy gateway to a firma
ment that's fair;
Where ttie sweet, supernal sunshlno soft
ly scattered sorrow's gloom
An' lets us enter heaven from the little
church back home. t
The city choir's voices rise in cadences
. so sweet
As they slog about the river where the,
sainted dnes shall meet,
An' the preacher's colec Is plcadln' as he
asks us, soft and low,
To treat all men as brothers ra this
weary vale of woe.
This city church Is handsomel an' the
congregation!) large,
The preacher's doln' nobly with his heav
en sceltln' charge.
Tho choir's swcllln' anthems soar to
heaven through the dome,
But my old heart Is slghin' for tho little
church back home.
Roy Farrell Greene, In Leslie's Week
ly. WELL, as I was saying, this Is
tho way It came about: I was
a young thing then. Just turu-
ed'18. Vour grandfather had been my
playmate, hero and protector from tho
time that I was old enough to go to
sctxxJl. I hnd never thought of marry
lnganyond"but him, and so when he
asked mo to be his wife, why, of
course, I sold "Yes."
Well, It was In tho spring of 1776 that
wo were to bo married. Mother and I
spent the winter getting my things
made up, and I hnd as fine an outfit an
a girl could possibly have In those days.
Tho day set for tho wedding was tho
nineteenth, of April yes, tho very day
on which the battle of Lexington occur
red, as I havo good reason to remem
ber.
Tho nineteenth of April was a beauti
ful, day, though u warm ono for tbq.sca
son. We were all up early tuaf morn
ing, for thero was a great deal to bo
dono. It was about 0 o'clock In tho
forenoon when my mother, who had
been looking over somo linen, suddenly
raised her head, exclaiming ns sho did
so, "Why, Mary, was that tho meeting
house, bell?"
"What con It mean?" I cried, and,
running to tho window, I caught sight
of our aelgbbor's sons, Joe, and John
Eaton, running down tho road with
their guns- Across the way Harry
Wright was plowing thp field. Tho
boys called out to htm as they passed,
and without stopping to unhitch the
horse, ho seized his gun and was off
across tho fields.
"It Is an alarm,- mother!" I cried.
"The boys aro down by tho brook,"
she sold, "The sound will not reach
theui!"
Without delay I hurried to the kitch
en, and, seizing the horn, I ran out of
the house and started for the brook,
which was some dlstanco from tho
house. 1 blow a blast on the horn qs
I ran, and as tho boys caught sight of
me I pointed toward the road, where
several men could bo seen running with
their guus. The boys understood, and,
waving their hands to me, they were
off across the .field to, the road,
"What is ItT Where are they going?'
I asked. And as I spoke the men came
hurrying out -of the meeting-bouse,
where they had heard a few words
from Parsoa Smith, and, mounting
their horses, rode off as fast as they
could go. I looked for your grandfa.
tber, but he was not tbere. Catching
sight of my father, I ran to hlra. "Havo
you seen Henry?" that's your grand
fatherI asked.
"Henry was at (be tavern when the
messenger rode through here," replied
my father, "and, as ho bad his, horse
with him, be rode away without wait
ing for the company to assemble."
My father bad reached home before
se, and as I opened the door I heard
mother ask, "Do you think It Is any
thing; serious, father 'r"
"I am afraid It may be, wife," he said.
"The messenger said that Gov. Gage
has sent some of the king's troops to
destroy the 'supplies which have been
'UWHVJ Ml U..il-
stored at Concord. If the report Is true.
there will be resistance, and If It comes
t that It will be very serious business
for us."
u
I MY WEDDING DAY
Saf -!?gWM).
A French scientist has found out that even the scorned and despised dleae
microbes can be used In making the softest and most beautiful light Imaginable.
While the light Is strong enough to enable fine print to be read clearly nt a
distance of several yards, it has all the sort, mysterious charm of brilUant moon
light The laity generally would Imagine that the first difficulty In making thU light
would be the collecting of the bacilli.' But Prof. Raphuel I)u Bois of the Univer
sity of Lyons has found that microbe lamps are eminently practicable. The
phosphorescent bacteria are those containing water, sea salt, one ternary com
pound, one nitrogenous compound, one phosphate, and traces nt mlnetal. For
purposes of decorattrc Illumination the bacterial fluids are placed lu bottle-shaped
receptacles, with flat bottoms, covcrcd'by colored shades, which direct the light
downward. These, suspended from the .celling of a room, supply a rlear, delicate
glow, that transforms the most hopeless loom and makes tbcVdullcBt complex
ion brilliant.
The first news that camo to us from
tho fight at Lexington and the other do
ings of that day arrived about 0 o'clock
In me afternoon, when some mlnutti
men from nnothcr town stopped at tho
tavern on their way home. They told
the story of tho day to the little crowd
of anxkniB women who cngerly ques
tioned them for news of some dear one.
My father would not let me go down
to the tavern, but went down himself
and brought us the news.
"Something unusual has happened,
Maryl" exclaimed my mother. "I never
saw your father look bo excited."
I hastened down tho path to meet
him.
"Bad news, my child; bad newsl" he
exclaimed. "Tbere bos been an encoun
ter with the king's troops," And then
reading the question In my eyes, he con
tinued, "But they brought no nows of
our men,"
Tho hour set for the wedding was 8
o'clock, but It began to look as If thero
would be no wcuulng, for it was now
after 7 o'clock, and none of our men
hnd returned home.
At last we heard steps outside nnd
then my brother Arthur, who was
among the first to reach home, stagger
ed Into the room. I sprang up and ran
to him. ,IIc wink Into the neurcst chair,
nnd his gun fell to tho floor with n thud.
Arthur was only a boy of 15, you must
remember, nnd the day had been a ter
rible one. v
When he had recovered 'a little, my
father spoke. "What news do you
bring my sou?" ho nskod.
"Arthur." I said, "Is It Henry?"
"Listen," ho said, speaking rapidly.
"The king's troops were In full retreat
when we reached the road. Wo did not
keep with our companies, but each ono
found shelter as he was ablo behind
trees, walls or fences. I met Henry as
I was crossing a Held, and wo took

shelter together and awaited tho com
ing of the troops. We had Just got set
tled when Henry caught sight of a
flanking party coming right down on
us. He called to tho men near us to
run for their lives, and at the same tlnio
we both jumped the wall and ran for a
houso which stood in tho field Just op
posite. I reached the oppoBlto wall In
safety and turned round to look for
Henry, but be was not with me, At
that moment tho troops camo round a
sudden turn In the road hnd sent somo
shots In our direction. At the risk of
being shot, I stood up and looked across
the road. Ho must have been hit by
tho flanking party, for ho lay Just by
tho wall."
Suddenly I heard the sound of a
horse's feet coming up the road at a
furious pace. I sat up and listened.
"Somebody Is riding on an Important
errand," I said to myself. Nearer and
nearer came tho sound, and the rider,
whoever he was, drew rein at our door.
Then tber were a murmur of voices
and an opening and shutting of doors,
and then my mother's voice calling to
me; "Mary, Mary; child, como down I
Henry Is here! He's come!"
Scarcely believing thnt I heard aright,
I got up and ran downstairs and Into
the kitchen, and thero before me, bis
face pale as death, with a blood-stained
bandage bound altout his forehead,
stood your grandfather.
"Mary," he cried, holding out his
hands to me, "I am In timet Tho clock
has not struck yetl We have beaten
the enemy at every point, and won a
great victory! I am hit, but not seri
ously hurt!"
Then Parson Elder, who had come
over to hear the news from 'Arthur,
came forward and said: "Shall I per
form the ceremony now?"
So right then and there your grand
father, l bis working clothes, all stain
cd with dust and blood, and I, la my
morning calico, were married,
