Ob, how we do honor theseold gray heads And laces seamed with many a sear, We scatter the (lowers o'er our -soldiers' dead And crown with hiureta the G. A. R. Our hearts burn with pride as we see them In regular order two by two, We sigh for tbe dead who arc 'nenth the grass, And mourn the brave who have worn the blue. Ob, what gtt-ater glory couli mortals crave Than to fight 'ueutb tbe stripes and stars, And who ean imagine a mmi more bravo Than heroes who bear these buttle scurs? We look on you proudly, dear soldier boys, We offer our iovt and our praise to you, A ad we hope that sweet Heaven with all its Joys May open wide to each boy in blue.

We owe nil tbe wealth to our country dear To noble deeds of gray haired biros, Who struggled for freedom without a fear, And dreamed of home by the old camp fires. We honor the living and mourn the dead, We scatter their gravce with sweet May flowerh, We plant tbc old flag on each grass-grown bed, They gave llieir lives for thix land of oun. They gave up tbelr homes for tUt nutloii'M weal, TDelr bounding young life blood ebbed away, A debt of affbction and lova we feol When (tcatt'rfng flowera ou their toduy, Ay, honor the heroen woo wore the blue, In jewelled It-Item write name, Ao4 let the of each brave for nye on the roll of fame.

There is an air of subdued romance about the place, an indescribable something that breathes a hallowed sadness.

The country is of old but thin settlement. Up the narrow valleys the ferns are rank, and on the hillsides beflow- ered vines cling to the rugged trees. The grave is under a willow that shades an open space. It is the only willow in the neighborhood. Once every year since the war a man and a woman have come from the north to decorate this lone grave.

At first the woman, bricjlit eyed and springy of step, was exceedingly handsome, but latterly time had ceased to be playful with her. The man was sturdy and of sober mien. He looked as if his life had always held a sfcret suffering. This man and this woman have rather a unique history. At the time of the breaking the war John and Henry Archer, brothers so nearly alike that they were often taken for twins, lived in Lake connty, His.

John was engaged to marry Tress Pryor, and the day for the wedding was appointed, but before the time came a drum beat, and sturdy young fellows mustered on the grass. It was evening, and Tress Pryor was standing on the veranda. John rode up, sprang off his horse and with a new accent in his a peculiar came up the walk. Tress," he said, "did j-ou see the men marching?" "Yes." "Do yon Iniow what it means?" "They say it means war," she answered. "It means more than that, Tress.

It means that you are to marry a hero." "I don't know that I understand you." He laughed. "Are you so dull, little sweetheart? It means that I am going to tho war." "It means nothing of the sort," some one exclaimed, and John, wheeling abont, saw his brother Henry standing near. "What's the trouble with you, "There's no trouble with rue. I am simply sensible, and you mnst not be foolish." He pointed to the girl. "Vhere is your present duty.

I am going to the war. Yon are going to stay here, and after awhile if we need you I will send for youj" "Well, now, this is a pretty come off," John declared. "You would make a hero of yourself and a drudge of me. You are not engaged to be married and therefore a patriot. I am in love and am consequently a coward.

Tress, you needn't say a word. I am going to the war." "I haven't said anything," the girl replied. "Good, and it means that yon give your consent." "It means that you mnst do what you consider yonr duty." "Yon are a bravo girl. Tress," "If not, I shouldn'tbe worthy of yon, John." "That sounds very well," said Henry, "but without common sense bravery is bnt an aimless piece of foolishness. One soldier from our small family, I should think, is enough to prove our loyalty to the government." "Henry, yon needn't say a word.

I'm going to the war." The next day John and Henry were mustered into tho service, and it was not long before they were under fire. One day in a skirmish not far from Fayetteville, John was shot while standing under a willow tree. He was so severely wounded that it was thought he could live bnt a few honra, but when the next morning had come he showed wign.s of improvement. He was taken to the hospital, and his brother Henry was detailed to attend him until an advance should be ordered. One day there came to tiie hospital a young woman from Kentucky.

She had been regarded as a belle in the bliie grass country, but she gave up society and went south to nurse wounded soldiers. This young woman took special interest in John Archer. She made a romance of her duty, anil at times when the wounded uuin seemed brighter than usual she would sit near his cot and reau poetry to him. Gut upon this Henry began to look with disapproval, and once when the girl had gone to fetch another book ho said his brother: "I don't think that's right, John." "Don't think what's righti" ''Why, having that girl read love verses to yon." "She's rending to herself much as is to mo." "I don't know itbont Hint, John." "I do." "Well, but 1 don't think light, know Trew wouldn't approve It." "Then why uoetn't. and road to know that yon are (Continued on Fourth Pa MRS.
