All the above will please take notice.
I mean them those men of muscle.
You band together 804 days in the year
and spout and resolve, and resolute and
protest, and kick and strike, and then on
the 885th day you go to the polh and
kick over your bucket of milk.
Aye you do worsethan that.
You feed your oow all the year through
and then drive her majestic illy up to the
polls and let your enemies milk her.
Worse still.
You milk her yourself and give them
the cream and the milk.
Still worse:
ou kill your 'cow, make a barbecue
for your oppressors and give them hair,
boms, hide, hoofs'andall.
Next day, after eleotlon, you go out on
a strike to buy another cow.
But me n while tyour babies go without
milk.
Now isn't that foolishness with

REVENGED.
It was about half an hcjr after
sunset, but an orange light still
burned above the lonely .Southern
valley. The trembling eveninir star
was hanging over the green alienee
of the fragrant Tennooe woods.
Vapor wreathed phantoms from the
river course, and from the dense
thickets that skirted the camp
ground came ever and anon tho
mournful -sound of whippoorwilln,
sounding fulnt and low, like tho re
mombered echoes of a dreurn. Yet
Wallace Ket-iij would have given well
nigh all lie was worth to exchange its
luxuriant verdure one moment only,
for the pine clad heights and salt
winds of Malno, with nwet winged
robins chirping their familiar madri
gals in the apple orchards b ' low.
"Two years ago I left home," rour
mured Wallace Keeno as he gazed
thoughtfully out where the purple
sky seemed to touch the waving
a . .rfv t
wooas. "iwo years since young
Harney told me ho never would give

'Is that you Splcer P What nowP"
Captain Keene turned its face to
ward the opening of the tent, where
Privato Jpieer'a bead was just visi
ble.
"Why, sir, our fellows have Just
Drougnt in mat lot o men that was
hurt in that scrim mage across the
river this morning, and some on
'era is wounded bad."
"I will be there directly, Splcer."
There was a little crowd of men
gathered on the river shore in the
warm glow of the spring, but they
silently parted right and left for

He stopped short as his eye fell on
a new face, half shadowed by the
green sweep of drooping alders a
pale, blood streaked face with a gap
ing cut on the forehead.
"Ihia Is not one of our men!" he
exclaimed sharply. "How came ha
herer"
"No, sir," explained Splcer, step
ping forward. "I think he belonged
to the Eighth. I'm sure I don't
know how he ever got mixed up with
our fellows, but there he was, and I
thought we'd better not wait for their
ambulance, but bring him straight
here. "
Right," briefly pronounced Keene,
stooping over the insensible figure.
"Let them carry him to my tent,
Splcer."
"I beg your pardon, captain to
your tentP"
'Didn't you hear what I saidP"
sharply Interrogated the superior
officer. "Bruce, make the others
comfortable in Lieutenant Ordway's
quarter There will be plenty of
room for thorn thore."
"Well, I'm beat!" ejaculated Splcer
five or ten minutes afterward as he
came out of the captain's tent
scratching his shock of coarse red
curls.
Meanwhile the dim light of a lamp
swinging from the center of the little
tent shone full ou the singular group
wnnin its circling lolds the wounded
private lying like a corpse, still and
pale, on the narrow iron bedstead.

young officer leaning over him
ana supporting his head and the
brisk, gray eyed little surgeon keenly
surveying both as he unfolded his
case of phials and powders.
"lie is not dead, doctor?"
"No; but he would have been in
another half hour. Your prompt
remodles have saved his life, Captain
Keene."
Thank God! oh, thank Cod!"
The surgeon looked at Keene In
amazement
He doesn't belong to your regi

the case?"

a strange, bright smile, "when I saw

familiar accents of his voice falling
to a more respectfully modulated
tone as he rose and saluted his officer.
"He s all right, captain as clear

"Very well, Spicer: you can go."
The private obeyed with alacrity

low bedside.
"So you're all right, Mr. Harney?"
he askeil kindly.
"Captain Keene," murmured Har

tone as if it had been a dagger's
