"Mfjcr, how did yon feel the first time you were under flro?" I Inquired of Tr.st Commander Case of Detroit Tost, a few years ngo, while sitting in his snug quarters in the water oflice, in company with several war-worn veterans who had dropped in for a chat. "Well," said he, "that is a question that is hard to answer. I did feel, though, that there were other places in which I'd rather be." "Were you afraid? I am free to admit that In my first fight the chills made a toboggan slide of my back for at least ten minutes." "Was I afraid? Yes and no. There was a sort of nameless dread about going in, but after the first volley I didn't mind it so much. I knew those fellows in front of us were not there especially for their health or ours, and I kuew enough about guns to know that they were very dangerous things in the hands of a sharpshooter." "I have seen many different statements, major, about how men act when hit with a bullet, and have seen them fall myself when struck by a missile from the enemy. What is your experience in this regard?" ,rVTell, every man has a different way of taking his cold lead," replied the major. "I have seen a soldier 'plunked' square between the eyes by a Confederate marksman ; he would stand for on Instant as if paralyzed and then drop to the grni:il like a log stiff and stark. Some woald scream out and fall dead In their tracks; others would extend their hands and spin around as If struck a violent blow; some would drop quietly without a sound, while others would leap high in the air and fall to the ground as stiff as though frozen to death. "By the way, major, you must have seen some hot times during your period of service. Tell me of a battle where bullets flew thick and deeds of heroism were performed." "Oh, colonel, those things have leen told so often and by better men than I that my story might not be worth the telling." "Never mind that," said I. "Everyone has a different way of narrtitlng his experiences, and no ttvo men in the same regiment will give the same account of a fight." "That is true, colonel, and if you care to listen I will give you the particulars of a fight which occurred in April, 1SGÖ." -What fight was that?" I asked. "Well," said he, "it was just a fight a hot one the location and time of tvhich will be recognized by any who were there wheu they read this narrative. "Just Imagine a comparatively flat country, broken up somewhat by ravines, which were, possibly, ages ago, beds of streams which cutting their way Into the earth to a depth of ten or fiftetn feet, left the surface of the ground seamed with wrinkles, as age makes its mark in the human face. Well, there lay the Union and Confederate armies close together on that pleasant April day forty odd years ago, stretched along in parallel lines for miles, locked in a close embrace, as It were, and each struggling for the mastery. Hidden behind massive breastworks. Union and Confederate, so close that the men on the outer picket lines could easily converse with each oftier; with the continued rattling of musketry, the hiss of bullets, the booming of cannon and bursting of shells constantly around, over and into us?, we had remained for months with scarcely any Ierceptible change In the situation. The places where we lived and slept were bomb-proof holes dug in the ground like cellars for houses, with logs laid across and earth piled thereon to the depth of several feet. In these holes we spent our time, a full of rain leaving for days afterwards the steady drip, drip of water that slowly percolated through the roof, making our dreams of Lome In the North sweeter, as the drops fell on our uncovered heads or trickled down our spinal columns. The bomb-proof that I called my home was occupied by the adjutant. Brother officer and myself and here we passed the time as lest we could. "Well, one nlgiit about 10 o'clock an aide from brigade headquarters came dmvn the rude stairway of our cabin with orders which he delivered to the adjutant. "T.e prepared to move at 2 o'clock In the morning, in light marching order, ?re day's rations and no knapsacks. That was all 'be prepared to move. And well we knew that to some of us It meant 'be prepared to die.' After jiving Instructions to our orderly sergeant we sat down to write some letters to those at home and arranged our papers for final settlement with the government. "At 2 o'clock the men fell Into line, silent and oppressed by the thought of the near approach of some Indefinite, intangible calamity. 'Forward!' and slowly and in perfect order, through an opening In our breastworks, and following the dugway that led to the outer picket line, the regiment marched on. Then we knew what was coming. Then we knew that across the narrow space which separated our line from the enemy's, bristling with rb.eval de fiisc and nkitK we would be ordered to charge the works which the federal army had for months been hammering unsuccessfully with shot and shell. Further to the left troops hid been massed and a desperate attempt was to be made to carry the Confederate works at that point. And what we re we to do? Just charge that was all. Selected with two other reginep.ts to create a diver sion, to lead the enemy ) believe an assault was tr be made here only to 1: sacrificed, that soemed our fate. Our toUu'cl was dissatisfied with the ordor to simply ch-trge and Intisted upon more definite instruct Ion:-. The aide, with a peculiar smile, paid: 'Colonel, you are to charge the Confederate works, capture all within the length of your regimental front and bold your position until driven out or relieved.' 'All right,' replied the colonel, and turning to his men he said: T.oys, weil dj it.' "Soon after this came the command Tittered In a low tone of voice, forwaruV Every man was Instructed to make as little noise as possible, lest we fhould draw the enemy's fire before we were upon them. Pressing steadily forVard we reached the lln of cheval de

frise, vtfilCii resembled somewhat an old- fashioned hay rake wired together end to eld. Itehind this lay the Confederate picket line, which, as we advanced, fired and ran back to their nviln lino, yelling as they went, 'the Yanks r.re coming! the Yanks are ooming!" The obstruction we met was soon torn apart, and rushing' forward to the ed.;e of the ravine that lay between the works received a withering storm of grape and canister, which severely wounded our colonel and laid low several officers and men. Staggered but not repulsed, we rushed down the bank and across the lottom, up the other side and to th? top, back frun wh'ch about fifty feet laj- the enemy's main works. As our column came into view another fierce fire was poured Into our ranks, which literally swept us off our feet and sent us reeling to the lottom of the ravine, leaving several of our poor fellows dead behind us. Rallying at the lottom, we crossed the ravine at a run and only halted w hen the opposite side was reached. Here we were below the range of the enemy, the bullets and shells singing war music just above our heads. Here we had a breathing spell and counted noses. Tlyee officers and about seventy-five men were nil that were left, all that came out of that hell of powder, lead and iron the remainder being either killed, wounded or missing. I never knew their fate. "At this time the sergeant of another company, whose name I never kuew, start?d to cross the ravine, saying he was going into the enemy's works, if he had to go alone, because our colonel had boasted to the aide before we made the first charge that his regiment would carry out the orders to capture the Confederate works if a man was left alive to do it. 'Hold on, sergeant, said I to h'm, 'and we will all go with you.' The only other captain lesldes myself who came out of that storm of shot and, shell alive outranked me and assumed command of th shattered regiment, and we moved toward the enemy. Slowly and in perfect order we climbed the opposite bank, reached the top, where after n short breathing spell, we sprang forward with a Michigan yell, charged like a whirlwind into the Confederate defenses, over them and In among the astonished 'Johnnies,' who only had time to send one volley Into our ranks as we rushed forward. It was quick and admirable wrk, and after a short resistance with clubbed muskets the Confederates threw down their arms and. surrendered. We quickly sent them over the breastworks under guard to cur main Hue, the prisoners actually numbering more men than we had in line. "Shortly after this the captain commanding our company one of the bravest men I ever knew was seriously wounded In the arm. and the command devolved uion myself. I sent two men with the wounded captain to the rear, and then carefully examined the situation. We had captured a portion of the works, irf-rhaps about 200 feet, lying iKiwcen n river that rau through both lines of defense and a flanker. On the opposite side of this flanker and across the river were the Confederates, who poured Into us an enfilading fire whenever they ventured to raise flieir heads alove the breastworks, which generally resulted seriously to themselves. Twice the Confederates enden vf'Ted to recapture what they had lost, but each attack was blodily repulsed. Once a line of Johnnies, shielded by decoys, who begged us mi to fire as they desired to surrender, nearly reached the earthworks behind which we lay. 'Captain, cried one of my men, 'there are some Coufeds. with guns behind them out there,' I sprang uion the works, n shining mark for the enemy In front, and took In the situation at a glance. Leaping down, without injury, I ordered my men to pour in a volley n the men who wanted to 'surrender, and the fifty muskets left in the com-' pany seemed to speak with one voice. When the smoke cleared away nothing was to be seen of the Confederates. They had vanished as silently as they had npproached. The stubborn resistance made by our little force did not suit the enemy at all, and the next attack was overwhelmingly Irresistible forced us to leave our position ami make n break for the rear. Some of the men didn't neem to care to run, for yoi know, colonel, that getting back unde; fire Is as dangerous as making a charg;. and some of the loys apparently pre ferred remaining where they were an' being captured than to take the risk u getting a bullet in the back. "An affecting incident occurred whir; we were In the works captured from ti Confederates. As I passed down tt"4 line giving Instructions to the 'men I

came to our color-bearer, Sergt. William F. Wlxey, who Mood erect holding aloft the flag which It had but recent- become his duty to carry, and who had performed that duty most fearlesslly and bravely. I said to him: 'Sergeant, I guess you may take the flag back to our breastworks.' 'Don't do that, captain; for Cod's sake, don't do that,' the tears streaming down his cheeks; 'let me stay with the boys.' 'No, sergeant,' I replied, 'we have lost two stands of colors already during this cruel war. We are now In a tight place, and I am afraid It means deat'i or capture for us all. You must go, sergeant.' Crying like a little child hs crawled over the earthworks and was gone. We fought the remainder of that battle without a flag. The name of the wounded captain I have alluded to, which I ascertained at a later date, was James S. Deland, of Jackson, Mich." "What was the name of this regiment, and where did the fight take placvV" I Inquired when the major had concluded bis story. "Well, here is something that has been written about the affair," he replied, handing me a thick volume open at a ecr.tln page and a certain jiaragraph marked with pencil, and this is what I read : "On April 2, ISi'm, this regiment, then In command of Lleut.-Col. W. A. Nichols, again most signally acquired a very enviable notoriety and great credit for a most daring and brilliant achievement whil- making a dem wislratlon In front of Petersburg, on the left of the enemy's works, for the purpose of drawing tro.ps from his rirht while fht Fulcra 1 forces were attacking him nt other points. After making two efforts undiT a galling fire of musketry anl artillery the regiment succeeded in getting hold of bis works to the extent of his regimental front which It held for an hour under a terrible fire."' "The name of th regiment." said the major, "was the First Michigan Sharpshooters, ami the time and place j-ou have Just read." "Colonel C," In Detroit Free Press. It Las been estimated that less exer tlon ia necessary to ride fifteen, mile! on a bicycle than to walk three cUIea.

The egg-eating habit Is a very common and costly one, and usually proves troublesome. It can generally be traced to the accidental breaking ft an egg in the nest or elsewhere. After o'io bird has acquired the habit It is rapidly taught to other members of the flock, causing complete demoralization. The" habit can best I' prevented by having darkened nests and a Ktilfieleney of nesting material so that the eggs nie not liable to be broken; alc by the use of china eggs In every nest. ;ive the bird at all tlnirs srfli.ie'it she'l-producing material. such as orushrd oyster or clam s!irUs and mi-M crystal grit.

The sourness which occurs in milk Is due to the action of micro-organisms living cells so small that tin can only be seen by using a strong microscope. These micro-organisms live on the sugar of milk, lactose, find chango. it Into lactic acid, so these small or

mam

ganisms are caned lactic arid bacteria, e micro-organisms are moro nu merous and more active in summer than In winter, and they grow most lap'dly when thr milk is kept Avarm. Therefore if milk is to be kept sweet, it Is necessary to cool It as quickly as possible after It Is drawn from the cow and keep It cool until needed for use. Thor.- are other micro-organisms which multiph in milk and injure it as a food for human beings. Some of these are found In the milk wh?n freshly milked, but most of them find their way Into the milk from the dirty barn, soiled hands of the milkers, or unclean milk buckets, strainers, separators and pans. All milk utensils should be rinsed in cold, clean water as soon as emptied, then washed In clean, hot soapsuds, scalded with boiling water, and placed where they will be free from dust, but exposed to fresh air ';nd sunshine, if possible. Milklns Machin? Hard to Clean. The annual report of the Wisconsin experiment station says: The contamination coming from the interior of the udder Is the same whatever the manner of milking. The utensils employed In hand milking are easily kept cle.m. being of such simple construction. The milking machine is somewhat complicated In its construction, because of the difficulty In conveying the milk from the teats to the receiving can. For this purpose several rubber tubes, varying m length from six inches to several feet, are used. These are difficult to clean. They can not readily be washed free from the milk, they can not le dried so as to prevent bacterial growth, nor can they be sterilizer, without Injury to the rubber by passing steam through them. The only way to keep them in a sanitary condition Is to rinse them with cold and then with warm water and finally Immerse them in an antiseptic solution between the periods of use. Hog Cholrra. In the way of treatment the United States IUireau of Animal Industry has discovered a vaccine which saves about 80 odd per cent after cholera appears in a herd, and a larger per cent if vaccinated before the disease Is Introduced. Time, will demonstrate the practicability of this method. The bacteriology department of the Kansas State Agricultural College is also working along these lines, but Is not yet ready to announce anything but progress. When symptoms of cholera appear In a herd, it Is wise to dip the whole herd, disinfect their quarters thoroughly, give them n sllg'it change In feed, and add to this about five drops of tincture of prickly ash for each hundred pounds of hog once or twice a day. The old remedy of wood ashes and salt Is good in many Instances. A little powdered sulphate of copper, dried sulphate of. Iron, or charcoal given dally when the animals are not perfectly healthy frequently does much god. After all, the old adage, an ounce of prevention i ; worth a pound of cure, holds good here. Prnicre of Irrlgration. Attention has been directed by the approach of the sixteenth annual session of the National Irrigation Congress, to be held at Albuquerque, N. M., to one of the most Important public enterprises of the time. Under the authority of the Federal Congress rx),XK) acres of land have already leen largely reclaimed from a state of aridity, at a cost of $18,740,000, and l.oOO.OoO other acres are to le reclaimed by the year 1911, at a cost of ?31,2fiO,O00. A side light is thrown upon the magnitude of the government's Irrigation operations by certain facts that are not suggested by even the tremendous figures given above. It is employing, either directly or through contractors. In this work a very large number of persons; it has built railways and wagon roads, telephone lines hundreds of miles long, sawmills and electric lizht plants; has done miles upon miles of tunneling, anil has constructed many dams. Its present expenditure upon the enterprise Is nearly $l,tHiO,'00 n month. Not only Is the sreatness of this irrigation task not comprehended by most of the people In rhe East, but they look uikui It with Indifference that 1 entirely. Inappropriate under the circumstances. Irrigation will enhance the resources of the country In a most remarkable manner Indeed, has already done so. It means greater abundance of food for residents of Eastern clilcs; for It will eventually augment the tillable urea of soil by many million acres. Boston Olobe. Vary the AYlnter Fred. It is the custom with many feeders to feed Just -whatever is most convenient without regard to variety. During the winter season the anl mals have no opportunity to secure a variety of food, as Is the case when they are on pasture. The variety must be furnished by the feeder, who often does not appreciate the value of foodstuffs. Corn is a good feed, but It Is a lad exclusive ration. Cattle and horses will relish an occasional feed cf straw and leave good hay for straw. This in on account of the relish for a variety. Hogs will sion lose their appetites If fed exclusively on corn. An animal fed on a single ration starves In the midst of plenty, since there Is an exeess of some food elements and a lack of ethers that are required for building up the lwdy. Once or twie I have tried feeding pigs on corn exclusively, with the result that they failed to grow or fatten, but when a mixture cf several grains was used the pigs would consuaie more ami grow and fatten rapidly. Once I fed a pig In the coldest winter season on a mixture of corn, oats and buckwheat ground together and mixed with wheat bran, with the result tfiat the is male a gain of one pound n weight for less than four pounds ol food consumed. The pij was confined In a pen wher ho could not get any feed except what was Riven him, and the feed was mixed with pure water. No dish water was used. The pig was nine weeks old when put up, live, weight thirty-one pounds. When It had consumed S8i pounds of feed It dressed 103 pounds, whlcfy counting for waste in dressing, would have made Just axut 100 pounds gala fcr the feed. A. J. Legg, West Virginia.

THINKS GUM CHE WIT Q GOOD.

French Scientist Willing to Aid the nijir American Indaatry. A French scientist, Dr. Leon Meunicr, writing to Les Annales on the habit of gum ch?wing. says: "A man must thoroughly masticate his food if he aspires to digest well. Mastication I a very important physical function. Three successive digestions are iuds pensable. The first takes place in th. mouth. Influenced by the ferment cf saliva we begin to digest amalaceous substances, an operation which 13 continued in the stomach. When people have hyperchlorhydrla the salivary digestion is seriously affected a:"d the more so when nothing is dona to take up the elements of saliva." Dr. Meunicr signals the utility of exciting the flow of saliva in hj-perehlorhydrla and of artificially producing a secretion of salivary ferment He says: "During a trip I made to the United States in 190-1 I was struck by an empirical treatment which has been -m ployed by Americans many years to facilitate stomachic digestion. In all the cities of the United States and Canada I saw large numbers of peor Ie chewing a substance to take the place of the vulgar 'quid' of tobacco. Thai substance Is sold everywhere under tu name of 'chewing gum' of 'pepsin gum I analyzed that gum and found that there was not a trace of pepsin In it. In all cases the gum was an Insoluble aromatized resin. The gum chewers are legion one man of every two an t one woman of every three will tell you that he or she delivers himself or hereolf so ardently and with such d-xile persistence to that exercise after every meal In order to facilitate digestion. Reing anxious to know whether or not the practice of gum chewing is use ful, Dr. Meunier prepared a test gum made of flavored, completely Insoluble, resin to i?ee If by reason or its agreeable character it could be utilized to engender a digestive saliva devoid of any foreign substance.- Following are the results of his experiments"hen the patient had not chewed the gum half an hour after the beginn iug of a repast (that Is to say, when the amylactic phase is nearly over) from five to thirty grams of sugary matter was found. Under the same conditions, when the subject had chewed gum, from six to thirty-eight grams of soluble amylaceous matter was found, which proves that the starch digested, estimated either in dextrine or in amylaceous soluble matter, is superior when the digester has chewed gum. Genervly speaking, saliva dilutes the food in the stomach and the digestion of amylaceous matter gains "10 per cent by the action of the gum or by the action of chewing the gum. So we may conclude that gum Judiciously chewed empirically exercises a real theratHUitic action on the stomachic digestion. "The Americans are right. When the salivary function is weak let us chew."

Navigators on the Great Lakes are interested in an experiment now being made off White Lake In Lake Michigan. The work is a boat raising feat to lift a big steamer, the State of Michigan, formerly of the Horry line, out "of 00 feet of water in Lake Michigan. It Is being carried on by Fernando Stand, of Chicago, and If the experiment is successful, salvn;ce operations on the chain of lakes will take on renewed interst. Staud proposes to raise the sunken steamer by means of four huge buoys, each 02 feet long and 14 feet in diameter. The buoys are of metal, aud it is purposed to fill them with gas and sink them under parts of the submerged boat. The surface of the lake being reached, the water will be pumped out of the hull and the craft saved for further use. II y a .Vcrrow Margin. "You're all out of breath," said rno?--les.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound saved my life, and 1 cannot express my gTatitud to you in words. For years I suffered with the worst forms of female complaints, continually doctoring5 and spending1 lots of money for medicine without help. I wrote yon for advice, followed it ts directed, and took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and it has restored me to perfect health. Had it not been for you I should have been in my grave to-day. I wish every suffering woman would try it." FACTS FOR SICK VOHEU. For thirty years Lydia R Pink ham's Vegetable Compound, made from roots and herbs, has been the standard remedy for female ills, and has positively cured thousands of women w ho have been troubled with displacements, inflammation, ulceration, fibroid tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, that bearing-down feeling, flatulency, indiestion,dizzincss,or nervous prostration.

"A curiou plant," Mid an eminent botanist, "is the wild tamarind or Juba plant of the riverside and waste places of tropical America, and very strange are Its effects upon the nonnimlnant animals that feed upon its young shoots, leaves, pods . and weds. It causes horses to lose the hair from their manege and tails, has a similar effect upon mules and donkeys and reduces pigs to complete nakedness. Horses are said to recover when fel exclusively on corn and gras, but tho new hair is of dlffereut color and texture from the old, so that the animal Is never quite the same as it was. Ono animal of which I jiersonally knew, after feding on the plant, lost its hoofs and had to be kept in slings until they grew and hardened again. Ruminant animals are not thus affected, and the growth of the plant Is actually encouraged in the Bahamas as a fodder plant for cattle, sheep and goats. Tu difference Is probably due to changes effected upon It in the chewing of tfca cud." If yoa wish beautiful, clear, wtte clotbei ce Red Cross Cat! Clu.
