dressed the cheek and applied a soothing poultice to the damaged eye Cot hit with a stone replied the patient Who threw it My my wife was the reluctant answer Hum Its the first time I ever knew a woman to hit anything she aimed at muttered the surgeon She was throwing at the hens next door explained the sufferer I vtm behind her- The DAY f m was the highest on war subjects in He could tell stories of army life from hoar to hour day to day without repeating himself stories which made the eyes of his listeners grow as big as saucers For faim the war was never over He continued to march to pitch his tent and to fight with all the patriotic fervor which distinguish ed him in the days when the boom of the shook the land So an interest did be take in his career as a soldier that he never cut much of a figure in business His talents in peace were purely of a narrative character and as exercised in wholly uaprofitable from a financial standpoint The captain never- troubled him self about this but his family did a fact not to be wondered at since they experienced all the discomfort result ing from it and the captain none at all scarcely He had the beauti ful faculty of somebody else carry all the difficulties while he went on with bis reminiscences When bis signature was needed his wife or his son brought him the pa pers and he signed them but he never read them The only thing he ever read was war and this found fault with because it wasnt always correct His family unhappily didnt sym pathize with his military tastes- His wife had been obliged to be both financiil and domestic manager and her husbands improvidence often placed her in very awkward predica ments Their son turned bis atten tion to law and looked forward hope fully to future distinction He had worked hard and the neighbors said he deserved credit The daughters learned music and painting and vain ly wished it was possible to convince their over patriotic father that war had long since ended The captain though a bodily figure in his household in spirit dwelt the past amid the roar of battle or in the idle days of waiting in camp and was happy as only one who indulges bis pet dreams can be As bis hair whitened and old age be gan to face him squarely his war stories were often finished with a sigh and he spoke more frequently of re unions that unknown country into which flesh and blood can never enter and where war and the engines of war are neither known nor needed- And when there were reunions here when the old veterans met and marched on fields of peace under flags that had been triumphantly borne in war Capt Hatton eyes were always dim with tears His materialistic and unpoetlcal friends said that he was getting old and possibly a little feebleminded but those who are much interested in life never understand the feeling of those who are but of it Last year as Decoration day ap proached Capt eyes burned with more patriotic fervor than ever Honors to the dead heroes of the war gave him much joy His fellow townsmen knowing the depth and strength of his patriotism requested htm io a talk on Decoration day En the on the war and Us heroic dead The day came The few soldiers graves in the cemetery were most prodigally covered with flowers Prayers were offered poems read and eulogies pronounced over the brave men who died in their countrys ser vice But there were few to weep over them Their companions and friends had nearly all vanished from under the sun Capt address astonished everybody It was the outpouring of his heart on a theme dearer to him than all else and the force and feel ing with which he spoke set the hearts of his hearers on fire and they wept He painted the spirit of the war as it came to and overshadowed the peaceful land he described the action of battle the courage of the soldiers their endurance and patience In the long marches and the tedious camp life He painted loo the Battle of Shiloh where he had given the best of his corporeal frame that awful scene where after the fight one could walk long distances stepping only on dead bodies And when spoke of the dead it was with strong and tender feeling and much simple moving eloquence- He told how he has seen them lying on the field after the battle their white or ashen green faces with con traded muscles taking ghastly or distorted shape or again wearing smiles of seraphic sweetness He be came a poet In describing the scene His friends and neighbors listened with tearful attention and felt a new and deeper respect lor the brave end loyal old soldier That evening the family sat down to supper In unusual spirits The captain was still under the In fluence of the days hallowed glory and for the first time In their lives his wife and children were proud of his abnormal patriotism His son brought letters and handed them to his father before they seated themselves at table The captain with bis thoughts on Adds of battle and dead comrades handled them without looking at them and laid them aside- The young man seemed lo have those letters on his mind He glanced toward them from time to time as he ate and when the meal was finished and they still sat about the kitchen table chatting pleasantly he said You havent read your letters father and with polite alacrity he Sot up and handed them to the white aired dreamer The captain opened one after an other without Interest Suddenly hit flashed and he began to tremble Here my children look here he cried holding at arms length an official paper and a letter posing appearance My grateful government insists that shall have all this money for the wounds I re ceived at wounds of which I have always been proud and felt it an honor to bear without thought compensation- I have ever held that the true patriot gives his spirit and his body freely to his country I never asked for a pension though I knew I was entitled to it Mo I did not ask for it but my government has proved itself worthy of loyal ser vice It offers it to me voluntarily Here the captains son colored and began to cough violently rejoiced that I had suffered for my country continued the poor order of patriotism that is willing to give nothing I am grateful for this acknowledgment of my service because it came un solicited Here it is my darlings here is reward of your loyalty to the land be loves Take it and do what you will with it I dont want it I want to die knowing that have given something to my dear country and have- taken How much is it father asked Lilian the eldest daughter had dreams of going abroad to study art Neajly he answered dreamily His mind was again roaming over the field at Both young ladies caught their breath Their mother looked unutterably as tonished at the vastness of the sum which as it were had been mi raculously thrown into- their laps while the enterprising son tried in vain lo appear unconcerned What shall we do with it asked Emma the other daughter who had musical ambitions Build a real comfortable house a home said the sensible mother whose genius for domestic manage ment had often been put to sore straits in consequence of her bus- bands indifference to the material things of life Just a slice of it would educate Emma and me in our professions said in a voice of eager in terest The son remarked that he knew of an enterprise sure to bring extraordin ary results into which in his opinion a large part of the pension money might be put with profit Let us fix up this house it and divide the remainder equally between us said Lilian Remember children that we need a comfortable home of our Ami Hay own put in the mother with mild firmness- But when we get to earning mon ey at our professions we can soon build you and father a lovely home said Emma The daughters both held to the subject of going abroad the son to the investment while the mother heroically stood by the pro ject of the home v Warmer grew the dis cussion No one counselled patience and deliberation In the matter of de ciding what to do with the money All excitedly insisted on fixing its destiny then and there Only of the circle offered no suggestion said no word in regard to it was not to This was the white haired soldier who had so bravely earned the money Indeed he seemed quite unconscious of the wrangle going on about him He had moved fromjhe table and was sitting in the easy chair near the open doorholding his letters lies sly in his band and looking dreamily out on the hills fresh and fair in their spring He was thinking not of the possible joys of the future but the dear anguish of the past Over his face spread an expression of serene exalted delight It came from the memory of what he had suffered for the sake of principle His was a nature that understood the blessedness of giving The dissension about ihe money went on growing in strength and wrath every minute At last slung to defending his position son forgetting his fathers presence boldly declared that he had some rights in the case since his energy and pert severance had secured the pennon This speech made its way straight Into the captains consciousness like a knife and like a knife was the wound It made This money then this pension was not as he proudly be lieved the voluntary gift a grateful government His son had schemed planned and struggled to get it and in the eyes of his country he was no better patriot than the meanest of her servitors He turned toward the distuibed group at the table with a look in his eyes the like of which they had never seen and which they will never be able to forget It had In it unspeak able astonishment overwhelming anguish and something else not translatable the limited spiritual perceptions of those who saw it That something was not of this world It was a beam from the unseen sun of infinity shining through the old soldiers surprised eyes Instantly all were awed Into silence In stinctively they that some thing mightier than their wills con fronted mem something they could not understand The old soldier began to rise to his feet His lips rooted but no sound came forth Slowly he sank back In to the chair again The light faded out of his eyes and his face grew ashen white The awestruck family looked at him with speechless Before they realized the presence of the strange guest death who had come so unexpectedly Into presence had departed with the soul of old patriot C Esq S Central Railway S writes I keep K constantly oh hand I should not know how to get on without it For many years I have suffered with Indigestion and acidity of the
