There may have been a lump of tender feeling in Jack's throat, or he may have swallowed his pride as men will at such times. Something caused a little choke and stammer when he said: "Carrie, 1 called to see you for the last time in a long while, perhaps, and"—"Oh, hoi You'll be back again, and that before long.

thought it would please the father and at least one of his sons if Carrie would take the notion after awhile to come for good and change her name to Royce. Whether Jack or Dick would speak the winning word of imitation was a question the wisest matchmaker in the town could not solve. Jack waited that evening until he knew it was too late for a call from the other house and then strolled, somewhat nervously, in that direction. He found Carrie alone, afnong the flower beds of the front yard Her greeting seemed like an echo of wnat he had just heard at hoine. "Why, Jack," she said, without taking a second look, "1 am astonished at you. Dick has just been here and he says you have disgraced us all.1'

her at her word. But she turned at last for a better view, and her eyes rested fondly upon the bright uniform that set off his shapely figure far better than f&rm clothee or even a Sunday suit. "So! there's nothing to come back for," he began to say, half aloud. She advanced toward him, and drawing herself tip with a most winning yet self composed manner, interrupted him with the thoughtless taunt: "Yes, you'll have to come, you know, and show me that commission. Dick says you are boasting youll win. Ha! hat ha!" "Be that as it may, Carrie, when 1 come again it will be because you send for mo." With that he was gone, and the foolish giri regretted her words before ho was beyond hearing. But Dick had been there, and filled her mind with Jack's ill behavior and his own glowing prospects under the charm of anew gilt shingle, with a horse shoe over the door.

"Yes, sir." \ta *•».%,., "How many did the other side lose?" "Seven, sir." "Then you each killed your man?" "Yes, sir—on an average, yes." "And held your ground?" "Yes, sir." "That will do, sergeant," said the general, and then turning to his adjutant he said: "Captain, in your report to headquarters of last night's skirmish you will commend the sergeant for his soldierly conduct ami mention him for promotion."

THE INTERVIEW WITH THE GENERAL.

"Thank you, general," said the proud young soldier, blushing, and turning to °L ., ."if iuTr 'iumu 'si go out of the tent "One molhent, sergeant, the adjutant called out "Your full name, please," "John Sherman Reyce, sir."

Your mother was probably one of our connections, but 1 have been away so long to the wars and on the plains that I have lost track of many of my friends.'' 'il "General, we all speak of you as a relative at home." "Then why didn't you come to me before. That name is good around theee neaaquarters at any time." "1 thought, general, that if I was a good soldier you'd find me out in the end, and if was not you wouldn't want to know me." L.-, "Good! Fve made

in just the right way. You held your ground and whipped Ate enemy. Still, that might not make your fortune in these times without a friend at ocwirt, and that Fll look after myself."

Jack returned to his post with a lively spark of honest pride in his bosom. He longed to write all about it to the folks and feel their sympathies with him again, but he concluded to wait awhile.

The news reached home at length through other hands with more particulars added. Carrie told it aH to Dick one evening when he came to see her on another matter entirely, aiid har joy oyer the event was by no means half hearted. It happened a day or two after Dicklost his first suit at lawt and he had really called to tryanother cauae asa solace for Ms disappointment in this. "Jack haa done splendidly," the girl said, in a rattling, happy way. "and I am awful sorry 1 let him go that time •without a pleasant word. He is commissioned lieutenant and will become captain soon."

This was gall to Dick, and Carrie looked at his disconsolate face with pity for a moment, then added, "Dick, why dap't you enlist, too? All the young men are going."

Dick glassed down ait his patent leather boots and bright broadcloth, aad iftnaghtestittg up like a peacock, said: "No thank yoo. I wasat out out for soldier."

He gwt no nearer the tender subject on his beaxTthat night, -and Oarjie, thhikIng thai all Ida gloominesa came team the

law failure, at last advised him to "begin as clerk to a real lawyer and work up gtep by step." He carried that advice many along day in his conceited brain, but never acted upon it. Whenever he saw Carrie it was only to hear eulogies on Jack, and he soon gave up in despair and sank to be a proud, do nothing fellow, supported by his father. Carrie often condoled with Farmer Royce, and both wondered why Jack never wrote home. "I think," said the girl, one day when the folks were all gathered at a holiday dinner party, "that Jack's just put ont with us, and he is going to do something big to show what he is made of." "The boy has done well," said the farmer, tappigg the table with his knife blade. "Tecump's looking after him." "Yes." responded Mrs, Westlake, glancing from Dick to her daughter, "and it sets a good example to others to be up and a-doing."

The hint was lost on Dick, but not on Carrie. The girl became an earnest, patient worker, and the trifles that waste so many hours and so much strength for village girls soon lost all charm for her. She was keeping herself for an occasion that, her heart told her would surely come. But that same heart often wished that Jack would send a word, just one word.

There were battles and sieges and long campaigns to follow, and the months of war !ran on into years. Still no word from Jack. Neighbors and friends came and went between the village and the camps, and Jack's life was no secret to any who cared to know, but neither in writing nor by word of mouth did he send a message direct. One winter his father got ready to go down to Virginia and hunt him up, but he heard about that time that the boy had become major and was on headquarter duty, and it all sounded so lofty and formidable that the old man was afraid to venture without a direct invitation. Carrie was the most disappointed and mentally declared that Jack had more sand in him than all the other Royces combined.

Finally, the war ended and all the local companies came home. There were grand times, rejoicing and celebrating over the victory and the return of the heroes. Jack did not come. He was going to remain south awhile longer, all his comrades saidf Dick slunk away abashed and dumfoutided to see how the soldiers, high and low, were feted tind lionized. Carrie was all enthusiasm outwardly, and showed her interest in the glorious occasion by praising and rejoicing with the rest. If Jack was not there the men he had led and triumphed with were and the victory was a victory for him anyhow.

A year rolled by and Jack still made no sign. His exact whereabouts was a mystery for some time, and then word came indirectly that he was major or colonel, or something of that sort, and held a responsible position in the govern-, ment service as judge advocate of a military district in Georgia.

i( J, lrl

"Now," said Farmer Royce, when he hfeard of it, "Nothing can keep m'e from hunting that boy up—neither Secesh, Moonshiners or Ku Klux."

The anxious father set out with hearty good wishes ?or his enterprise from Carlie, whose eyes flashed the secrets of her waiting heart. In a few weeks he came back brimful of enthusiasm about things down south, especially Jack. "My son John is a marvel and no mistake," he said with a touch of dignity, when he stopped at Westlake's gate on the way* home to tell the hews. "He has been studying hard at law during all his soldier business, has had military practice and got a good knowledge of common law.'. He could enter the bar in six months if he'd set about it." 'But why doesn't he come home, now the war is over?" exclaimed Carrie. "He is only waiting for some certain one here to give him the invitation. Maybe you know who," said the old man merrily. •«Oh! is that all?" responded Carrie, and remembered a pressing duty in the house. The duty took shape in a thin, flat parcel about 8 inches by 5j in sLse, addressed to some city in Georgia, and there Jack found the words he had waited for over five years:

DBAR JACK—Come home. It will never be the same here till you do CAJUUK.

Jack answered it) person and soon tbok off his gilt leaves, married the girl whose faith had equaled hia own, and settled in the village. In the course of time anew shingle appeared on the street and read:

Nobody remained ldng in doubt as to who was the "Royce" and who the "Brother" or who furnished the law, and who plodded away atithe deeds and mortgages and contracts in endless monotony, day after day. "It is the Sherman in him, and Tecump's doings, setting him ahead on the start, that's brought it all about," says Farmer Royce when people praise the Honorable John's success. In the privacy of the family he adds, for the sake of harmony, "Carrie had a hand in it too."., lip w^gMjBring Tonr Rarest JfUnrmnk^^-

Home Made Cannon.

Take a thick glass bottle, fill it threequarters full of water, dissolve in that water about a dessert spoonful of bicarbonate of soda. Make a cylinder of a large card, stop up one end of it with a piece of crnmpled tissue paper, and put into this cylinder a dessert spoonful of tartaric acid. Fasten this cartridge thus manufactured by a pin and thread to the cork of the bottle. Avhich, is placed upright on the table.

jet the oiKsningof the cartridge be at the top, and regulate the length so thatitdoes not touch the water. Then cork the bottle tightly. Now our cannon is ioaded. All that remains to be done is to fire it off Ifor this purpose place the bottle carefully in a horizontal position on two pencils laid parallel on the table to form a guu carriage. The water penetrating the tube or cartridge will dissolve the tartaric acid and the carbonic acid gas which will be the result will force the cork out of the bottle with a violent explosion. By the effect of this reaction the bottle will roll back, imitating the recoil of a piece of artillery.—Churchman.

Shakespeare didn't say that, but very likely he would have'said something simifar, if he were living In this 19th century, when so many suffer untold agouies from indigestion. Of'conrse he would have'gone on to say that a man must be a fool not to take the "something" which would put an eud to the "pangs and torments" spoken of, if he could get it. Now it is a fact that weakened, impoverished blood brings on indigestion which is the cause of dyspepsia, constipation—a poisoned condition of the whole system—and it is. a fact, also, that Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will so purify the blood and enrich it that all the weakened organs are revitalized and strengthened. It is guaranteed to do this. If it doesn't, your money will be returned to you.
