UNCLE DAVID'S —v. .- BROTHER

When Alice came down stairs she

found

her Great-Uncle David bitting in

the parlor alone, and very grave and still, says a writer in the Youth's Companion. He had on his beautiful blue uniform with its shining buttons, and his sword, and the broad-brimmed hat with its gold lace, lay on the table beside him. Alice went ove» to the big chair where he sat for her mornins kiss. The old man put his hand upon her shoulder and looked down at her so long and so strangely that she felt a little afraid. "My dear," he said at length, "I want to tell you a little story this morning. I know you will remember It, and every year when this day comes you will think of the man I am going to tell you about One day a long, long time ago the news came that the President had called for men to go and fight for the flag. The first man in the town to say he would go was my brother Henry. Tb°c I said I would go, too. "It was very grand when we inarched away in our new uniforms, with our shining guns. The bands played and everybody cheered us, and we felt very proud and brave. "But one night, after we had b^eu away for a long time and had fought in many battles, our regiment was waked up at midnight and marchei) forward to be ready for a great batt* that was coming in the morning. "The cannon began to boom by daylight. and in a little while the bullets were buzzing through the woods like great bumblebees, and big shells screamed through the trees, and the men were falling all around us. Glouds of smoke hid everything, so we couTO see only a little way. "The enemy fought very bravely, but after a time we began to drive them back a little, and at length we were ordered to make a charge. We started on the run, everybody cheering. Henry and I side by side. Just before we reached the ridge where the enemy were waiting for us I felt a sharp sting in my side, and everything grew black and I fell. "When I came to it was dark. I was lying in a little wood, and could see the stars shining through the trees. I cot up and tried to walk, but I couldn't stand. I thought if I could

'MY DEAR, HE SAID.

get to the edge of the wood some one might find me, so 1 crawled along slowly. By and by I saw a man sitting with his back against a tree, and it was Henry. Just think, dear, how triad I was to see him. He was wounded. too, but I did not know then how badly. "We had been talking a few minutes when we heard a groan from a clump of bushes behind us. Henry crawled over and found a man in a gray uniform, badly hurt, and calling piteously for water. Neither of us had a drop, llenry crawled back and sat with me by tiie tree a little while, but he could not rest for thinking of the poor man in the bushes, who was dying for a d'jcJk "Over to the right we could hear a little running brook, and Henry started to crawl to it. He could only move very slowly, he was so weak from his wounds: but he neverstopped or complained .He just dragged himself along until he reached the brook. "The bank was high and steep, and iie did not have strength to climb down: but he lay on the edge and lowered iiis canteen by a cord, and when it was fnil he drew it up. Then he crawled back to the man in gray and gave liini the water. The poor fellow was so glad he cried, and he made my In-other tell him his name and where lie lived. "Henr.v crrtwlod back to the tree and lay down beside me. We began to rail of our home, and by and by he: asked me to sing, and I did and Henry sang a little, too, and then thr wounded man in gray took up the song in his poor weak voice. But before long we heard.him mourning for water a train. and Henry dragged himself to the brook and got him some more, till he grew quiet. "I must have fallen asleep then. When I waked, some men who had come to search for the wounded were bending over me. I looked all around but 1 could not see Henry. Then the men looked and found him near the brook. "He was cold and still, my dear, but in his hand was the canteen, which he was trying to fill again for his wounded enemy. God had called him in the night. You must not cry or feel badly, my dear. He was a brave man and a good man, and he was ready to go. God knows best. The wounded soldier in gray got well after a long time, and once, when the war was over, he came here to talk with us about the man in blue who brought him the water. "Every year keep this day In memory of my brother Henry—your grandfather, my dear. He was not a general, or a colonel, or a captain—Just a plain private soldier. It may be that no one ever heard of him except the people In the town where he lived and the men of his company but I am sure you will always be glad to put flowers on the grave of a grandfather who died so cheerfully, and who gave bis last strength to help a man who bad fought against him.

Ifct Slider Spt the Beat 6ne.~ An account of the life of Judge James B. Bradwell of Chicago by his daughter tells a story of the deeply religions training of bis childhood. He had the old fashioned faith in the efficacy of prayer before he was of sufficient age to understand the reasonable limits of guch petitions.

Once, when James was only 8 years old, the wagon was sent to Chicago for provisions. Five days elapsed. The wagon was detained, and the Bradwell family was without food and without a man to provide it. Little James, as usual with even small boys of the time and place, was a good shot. His mother loaded the gun for him, and he started out to see v^hat he could shoot to supply the table.

In due time he saw two prairie chickens not far away. He got his gun ready (rod then took long enough to pray thus: "*v "O Father, if you will just let me bring down those two chickens I'll give your minister the choice of the pair!"

The trigger was pulled and down came the two prairie chickens. James believed the shot to be a direct answer to his prayer. He took the two birds to Elder Snow, the minister, and told him of the circumstances.

The good elder took a long time to examine the two chickens, in order to be quite sure that he got the better of the two, because, he said, he thought it best that the boy's compact should be faithfully carried out

A Lode of Hii Hair.

A venerable, white haired clergyman recently preached in the parish of a friend. He had hardly got back to the •icarage from the church when the doorbell rang and a charming girl of 1ft asked to see him. He received her. They talked about the sermon and other things -until finally she asked diffidently: "Oh, won't you please give me a lock of your hair?" "Certainly, my child," said the old gentleman, flattered at the request. "I'll send it to you tomorrow," and he did.

On his return to his own home he had five more requests of the same kind, and he proudly boasted to his wife that he was glM to see that he had

yet

lost his power to please. All went well until bis wife received this note: "Dear Mrs. won't you please ask your husbauu to send me just a little lock of his hair? We have all been taking lessons in making hair flowers. So many of the other girls asked him— and he sent it to them—that I thought I would rather ask you to get it forme. Won't you please do this for me? It is so hard to get white hair fcr lilies of the valley."

This was a terrible blow, and the less now said about locks of hair in that old gentleman's presence the better.

A Good Scotch Story.

In Lanarkshire there lived a suia', sma' -laird named Hamilton, who was noted for his eccentricity. On one occasion a neighbor waited on him and requested his name as an accommodation to a bit bill for £20, at three months' date, which led to the following characteristic and truly Scottish colloquy: "Na, na, I canna do that. "What for no, laird? Ye hae dune the same thing for ithers." "Aye, aye, Tammas, but there's wheels within wheels ye ken naething about. I canna do't." "It'g a sma' affair to refuse me, a "Weel, ye see, Tammas, if I was to pit my name tell't. ye wad get the siller frae the bank, and when the time came round ye wadna be ready and I wnd iae to pay't. Sae then ye and I wad quarrel. Sae we mae just as weel quarrel the no as lang's the siller's in ma pouch. "—.Stray Stories.

Neither Could Rend.

The late Mrs. Keeley, the actress used to tell an anecdote of Queen Victoria on the occasion when she had tbr honor of being received by her majesty. On being presented she excused herself from making a low courtesy by saying. "Your majesty, I have rheumatism in my knees, and I cannot courtesy.'' "Mrs. Keeley," replied the queei! "I can't, either." And the veteran ac tress was put at her'ease by the homeliness of the remark and its common touch of nature, which made the two women kin.

Another QneHlton.

"Pa, what sort of a house is that?" "That, my son, is the blind asylum. Blind people live in there." "They can't see, can they?" "No, my boy." "Then what has the houae got windows for if they can't see?"

Exposure to a sudden climatic change produces cold in the head and catarrh is apt to follow. Provided with Ely's Cream Balm youarearmed i*ainst Nasal Catarrh. Druggists sell it at 50 cents, or Ely Brothers, 56 Warren Street, New York, will muil the 50c. or 10c. trial size. The Balm cures without pain, does not irritate or cause sneezing.
