    WIIE3 XEX Alt! HIT IX BATTLE.
It was strange and queer to watch
the demeanor of men wounded in
battle. You might have stood U-
aide hundred who were struck
down, and yet you would not have
found tvto whose actions were exactly
alike. When bit while suding in
active most men threw up their
bandit and cried out and staggered
about before fulling. If hit while
the regiment was advancing they
fell with curses on thfclr lips, and
sometimes rose up again and limped
painfully after their comrades. If
reached by a bullet while the com
inund was belug driven or retreating
or changing its position, then men
wailed out like children not so
much over the hurt as became they
realized that they were to be left on
the field to suffer and would be help
lew to protect themselves.
When a regiment was in line,
waiting to move to the right or the
left or he advanced, the thud of a
bullet as it struck a man could be
hear. I by the men on bis right and
left. It struck on the chest or shoul
der or head be fell out of the ranks,
threw up his hands with a shout, and
then fell like a log. If struck below
the breast he nearly always lurched
forward and placed his hands on tlx
wouad-abd sunk down with a groan.
The demeanor of no two wounded
men were alike in minor particulars,
but strangely alike in the first move
ments. A soldier shot through the
head or heart shot dead in Ms
tracks, as you might term it wan
not instantly killed. There was no
such thing as instant death unle
struck with a solid shot or blown to
pieces by an exploding i-hell. No
matter whether the bullet pierced
heart or brain, the victim lived on
for a few seconds long enough to
throw up his hands and call out and
clutch at the comrades beside him for
support.
Few men preserved silence after
being hard hit. After the first ex
clamaffon they cursed or wept, and
were not conscious of what they did.
Kach felt that he had been grievously
wronged hy being shot down. Some
times they cursed first and wept
afterward sometimes wept and
sobbed like children from the first
moment of feeling pain. The cursing
and the weeping were the direct
result of the nervous system being
keyed too high by the excitement of
the battle. If a wounded man was
carried to the rear he soon got the
better of bis hysterics, and It was the
same If left to himself for three or
four hour) on the field, providing the
fighting had ceased In his vicinity.
It was the wounded who lay on a
field where the fighting coutiuued
who were the most to be pitied.
They feared to be wounded again or
killed outright, and their shouts and
screams could be heard whenever the
roar of battle died away a little.
Their fears were by no meana
groundless, llullet aud ball and
shell and grtptshot were continually
falling among them, and during the
war thousands of soldiers were killed
lying wounded between the lines.
The burial parties used to find bodies
which had been hit from three to ten
times, and after Oram's first battle
In the Wilderness we found a confed
erate with twenty-three bullet
wounds in his dead body.
And there was more than the fear
of missiles before the eyes of the
wounded men. If Infantry charged
over them they might not suffer, but
if a battery changed position or there
was a charge of cavalry they might
be ground Into the earth. When in
bis normal condition a cavalry horse
will not step on the body of a man
lying in his path, but when excited
to madness by the roar of battle the
steeds of war will trample down any
thing. The . wounded men lying
about roust take their chances when
the bugles blew a charge. Some
would escape the Iron-shod lifs
others would be almost beaten Into
the earth. It was the same way if a
battery was retired or advanced. The
change of positiou was made with
horses on the dead run, and their
riders could take no thought of tin1
dead and wounded lying in the wiy,
The fate of a brigade or division, or
even a wing of the army, might Is1
at stake, and the sacrifice of a score
of men already wounded did not
count. Wheu the guns were ad
vanced at Chancelloraville to cheek
Jackson's twilight attack the earth
was fairly cumbered with the dcml
and wounded. On the few acres of
cleared ground over w hich the gun:
had to advance were ramp fires,
knapsacks, haversacks, stacked mus
kets and several hundred men ho
had fallen under the volleys poured
In from the edge of the foreot. The
guns dashed right into and over this
Jumble, and aUye the roar of mus
ketry from the oncoming confiiler
ates wo caught the screams and
shrieks of our wounded men as t (un
realized that death was to come
under the heavy wheels.
The burial parties were alw:y
pushed for time, and yet there w as
time to look into the faces and ob
serve the attitudes of the dead and
notice that death seldom came to two
alike. Some suffered agonies from
' their wounds, others died as peace
fully as If no twinge of pain hail
' been felt. Some had their lips parted
as if rraylng to God or uttering fare
wells to loved ones at home others
bad lips compressed and their fan
showed grim determination or anger.
Sometimes a wounded man had
'.crawled away into the bushea or be-
hind a stump or log to die. On his
bronzed chocks, partly bleached by
the touch of death, fra would find

dying within a few minutes they
crrlt d fierce, stern faces and clenched
hands, and nearly always their eyes
were wide open aud their lips parted
to show their teeth. If the musket
had not fallen from their bands
under the shock of the missile it was
clenched so tightly that their stiffened
fingers had to be opened one by one.
There was no pity for the wounded
while the fight was on. Now and
then It was possible to alleviate
thirst, or in case of an officer to carry
h!rn to the rear, but the unwounded
hud little thought of the fallen. It
wuo only when night came down
and the Mar of battle had died out to
a growling and sputtering here and
there that a new sound rose on the
evening air to pale the faces of the
veteraus lying about with open hav
ersacks. It was a sound heard only
on a battle-field, after a battle. It
was a sound which begun like the
fur-off murmur of a mighty crowd
which came nearer and nearer
which swelled In volume till it
drowned all' other sounds which
separated itself from the shouts of
men, neighing of horses, peals of
bugles and rattle of drums one great
overpowering wail from the thou
sands of wounded men which went
right to the heart and caused every
man to lift his head and whisper:
"Poor fellows God pity them!"

Tliey ordered their luncheon, and
then the young-r woman remarked
acidly : "I ted you that I rcented
that marriage bitterly. Think of
John, with his big brain, choosing
that girl for a wife!"
Is she pretty?" Inquired the
matron, smiling slyly.
"Pretty? Oh, yes, pretty enough,
I suppose. Hut she never could get
through college, and even now doesu't
know the difference between suffrage
or syllogism."
'Of course, John is unhappy?" ob
served the friend.
"No, he isn't. And tlmt'sjust the
hard part of it. He was often rest
less, ttnd low-spirited, no matter what
I did to entertain him; but now he
seems as happy as possible. He
never refers to his profession Ht home.
He never talks about literature.
or philosophy Willi cora. ine
intellectual side of his nature seems
to be entirely put aside the moment
he enters the house. He hardly says
a word. Cora does all the talking.
She Just chatters, and he sits there
and smiles and lets himself be cod
dled and made a baby of. He looks
like a big, amiable dog watching a
kitten. And the odd thing is, he
doesn't seem to feel the real empti
ness of his home life at all. He starts
down town in the morning looking
as if he were going to conquer the
world."
The matron laughed again. "No,
Cora certainly isn't silly. I should
say she Is very wise. When you
love a man, you want to make him
happy, don't you? And you say he
is happy. Well, then, Cora proves
her wisdom by that very fact."
"Oh, but think of his higher
nature!"
"Higher nature! Pshaw! Has
your brother been less successful as a
lawyer slnco he married?"
No"
"Then don't trouble about his
higher nature. It's all right. He's
putting it into his work, Just as he
should, Insleiul of wasting it on phil
osophical discussions at home. Let
me tell you, my dear; Cora Is the su
perior woman, and you are the silly
one."
"Silly! What do you mean?"
"I mean Just that. Cora doesn't
talk philosophy, but she's married.
She will have children sons who
will grow up to adore tier Just as
John dot-; daughters who will be
adoicd in their turn, as die has been.
You are not marriid. There is not
one mini in the world whom you in
fluence. I'.ven your brother, as you
admit, is more influenced by this
v( man you call silly. What are you
doing In tiie world? You are very
"ii erinr mid very learned but what
are you doing? Is the world going

Yon think yourself Cora's superior,
but the s:ime amount of energy that
you are putting Into barren study she

clothes, and giv ing charming dinners,
aud bringii.g up children, and influ

ful for Cora to sleep oil his shoulder,
but she is sensible enough to know
that that little, tired, confiding head
inspires him to more manliness and
endeavor than all the philoNophy in
the world."
'( !t. but don't you think It Ignoble

happy. She inspires him to give out
the best there U in him, In bis efforts
to surround her with beauty and lux

suspect there are half a dozen young
men who adore her, too in a per
fectly reuectful way: think she's the
very Ideal of what a woman should
be, and let ber Influence them very
strongly in the direction ol all that is
good and.high-mlnded."
Yes' sald the sister, a little reluc
tantly, "all of. John's men friends are
very fond of Cora."
'Of course they are. My dear, it
is women like Cora who rule the
world, aud always have and always
will rule it, because they are the
women who rule the men. It makes
me laugh when I see how seriously
the superiorly masculine-minded
woman tckea herself. What is she?
A sort of hybrid. She Is a failure as
a woman, and can never hope for any
real success as a man. The very
best she can do will fall below the
level of Shakespeare or Washington,
or any of the really great men, while
the feminine woman has something
that, in its way, is Just as jsiwerful as
the brains of the biggest man and
that's her femininity. Aud she has
the sense to use her gift. You studied
philosophy to try and inspire your
brother. But he could ge t that from
other men. What he wauled wa
something men couldn't give him
femininity."
"Oh," said the younger woman, "I
never thought of it in that way."
"No. Aud lots of clever women
don't; more's the pity. Just you go
to an afternoon tea with me this af
ternoon, aud I'll point out to you the
womeu who are married to the best
and most successful men of my ac
quaintance, and Just you notice w hat
they are slim-figured, bright-eyed,
graceful creatures, whose movements
are soft and supple, whose clothes are
ierfectly chosen and exquisitely
worn. They are uot, as a rule,
women with much learning, though
many of them are talented, but they
are full of rich life and high spirits;
they are cheerful, warm-hearted and
full of sympathy. Above all, they
are utterly feminine. Those are the
women men marry the women who
really count In the world; the women
who are mothers and make the char
acter of the new generation. They
are the women who form aud control
society, and for whose benefit men
conquer the world."
"How did you know it?" asktd
the younger woman, mildly.
"Because I've worked myself.
Worked hard and faced the world,
Just like a man. I know how a man
feels, because I've felt that way my
self. When I used to come home
dead beat, the onto thing 1 wanted
was Just cheerful nonsense and pet
ting and physical comfort. I wanted
something quite different from what
I'd had all day. In those days I
hated the very sound of a superior
woman's voice, and if any one Just
mentioned philosophy to me I threw
my bonnet at her head."
And then they tipped the waiter
one solitary little nickel, aud the
young woman went away looking a
little like the foolish virgin. Eliza

"Like all men who lived in Cali

as if to ease his right shoulder, and 1
reineiiila red that he bad used his
arm with a little ditllculty while at
dinner. "I didn't think it was ever
my privilege again to hold as good a
hand as 1 did one night on an over
land tram in Nevada. The Pullman
car was tin old-timer, and had Just
steps'd in to wash my hands when
the opening to the toilet room was
closed by the throwing back of the
car door. I saw the conductor with
his hands up, stop past me, and right
behind . him was a iiimkiil robber
with a gun poked against the small
of the ticket taker's back. I had
dropped to the game and disappeared
behind the curtain until the bandit
hail passed, when I al-o fell into step
behind him, with my gun at his ear.
He handed his gnu to the conductor
very obediently, and, after we tied
him, he made an excellent shield for

platform and drove off his pals.

Jumped it one day, turned down the
box and swore I'd never touch a
card again. Yes, there's few of us
turns that trick, but I had a lesson.
You see, I was dealing in Deep
Uuleh, when an old man w ho had
big interests in the mines comes up
from the bay with his boy, a likely
lad of 17 or 18, who couldn't stand
the temptations of the place, and
wheu his father was out in the
mountains that youngster was either
around the dance hall or the B.mk
saloon. One of the girls got stuck on
his face, and he -ut lots of money
on her, which didn't please an ugly
tempered outlaw who hung around
camp, und it was only by my being
ou the lookout that I winded Big
Sam and saved the lad one night.
"I was so touched by the ( I I man's
gratitude that I concluded a mining
camp gambling saloon wasn't a good
place, to die in, eiti.er, as the old
party said, and I ipilt it. He got me

wanted it and refu-ed to go to the

Oue Minute Cough Cure touches
the right spot. It also touches It at
the right time If you take it when
you have a cough or cold. See the
point? Then don't cough. W. E.
Brock.
Karl's Clover Root Tea Is a sure
cure for headache and nervous dis
eases. Nothing relieves so quickly.

Ruth Ash more, addressing herself
to "That Boy of Mine," in March
Ladies' Home Journal, writes that
his personal appearance "ahould be
good. You owe that to yourself.
And whether it Is at the office or
when you are out visiting you should
be a clean, wholesome-looking young
man. Cleanlluess does much toward
godliness, and a cleiyi body aids a
clean soul. It may not be in your
power to possesa a dress suit, but if
you should not, don't borrow one and
don't hire one. Brush up the best
clothes you have, make them Im
maculate, and then enjoy yourself
and forget your clothes. Your linen
can always be frer.li and clean, and
your tie can le in good style and
proarly knotted. Never wear imi
tation jewelry. Gentlemen select
plain gold buttons, and simple gold
links, and scarfpins of the most mod
est pattern. If you can afford dress
clothes, rememts-r never to appear In
them until after dark. You may
wear, as you like best, either a lawn
tio or a black satin one, but the stiff
little bow should he loofieil by your
self and not bought ready made."
Diseased blood, constipation, and
kidney, liver and bowel troubles are
cured by Karl's Clover Root Tea.

J. W. Tierce, Republic, la., says:
"I have used One Minute Cough Cure
In my family ami for myself, with
results so entirely satisfactory that I
can hardly find words to express my
self as to its merit. I will never fall
to recommend It to others, on every
occasion that presents itself." W. E.
Brock.
