Among the loyal and friendly souls who have passed through the Valley of the Shadow into the per fect light of a new day, preeminent ly stand out those brave and true defenders of u Chnsilike cause who have heroically fallen at the battle front or died while in the service of their Motherland, those superb young men who offered their bodies as a living sacrifice that the sacred ideals of their fore fathers should live forever. They have "Gone West." Aye! Gone West! "Out of the din and clamor; out of the bitterness and strife; out of the tierce passion of combat, into the dreamless silence whose shad ows mark the pathway to the stars. Out quaking summit of Calvary into the realm of glory where God's banners of the agony of Geihsemane, over the never furl, where victory is sure! So these stainless knights of a stainless cause move down the West, where earth's last glimmer fades and dies, and into God's spreading dawn, whose light is eternal, whose glory never fades." What words more filling could (hose soldiers overseas have coined for that gallant setting forth on the Great Adventure toward that "bourne from whence no traveler returns?" Filled with the high hope of life's morning, its jest and songs still faintly echoing these fearless champions of the highest and holiest vision ever fought for since life's sunset, and behind the sunset are the hills of God where surely all things glorious await these victors of justice, of mercy and of truth. Any tribute that my lips may frame seems all too inad equate to express the reverence, the awe, the sacred pride that fills our lives today as we speak of those golden-hearted, white souled patriots who died that liberty might not perish from the earth, that our shores should be free from the op pressor's heel, thai our homes might not be desecrated, our Amer ica torn with woes unutterable. I stand with uncovered head in the presence of their sainted mem ory, humbled before the greatness of the supreme sacrifice thai they so freely paid, proud beyond words of those noble sons of North Caro lina, who have held aloft the hon ored traditions of their native State nd added new luster to her crown of glory. The proudest page of of Carolina's history will bear the names of those great souled heroes who laid their lives, rich with promise and bright with hope, upon the altar of civilization.

No. 10 Brooklyn, New York HAPPINESS. Though it is raining I care not for raining or for blowing; I know behind the clouds somewhere the sun is glowing, glowing, And yellow golden days await beyond the pitter-patter Of the cold rain; so what do all the clouds and rain drops matter? The limbs of the pecans are bare, the leaves are slowly falling, But from a sheltered nook somewhere a mocking bird is calling; And though the pink rose petals fall, 1 know the rose is living; And there is shelter for my loves, and life is all thanksgiving. The violet holds a green leaf above its heads for shelter, And children who came out 10 play dash indoors helter-skelter, And tonight they'll peep from the door, and I will dare the weather And what are low-hung clouds to use when we are all together ? And when we're playing hide and seek, what though rain drops falling? we can not hear their patter for the laughter and the calling. Though the leaves are brown and falling down we know the trees are living, And love stands with her arms outstretched, and love is all thanksgiv ing. J. M. Lewis, in Houston Post. It isn't enough 10 love him in his manhood's beauty rare, It isn'l enough to give him your girl-life, sweet and fair, It isn'l enough to break your heart when the last good-bye is said, It isn'l enough to feel life's done, when you know that he is dead. But tell me this little girl bride, can you look at the future true? Can you thank the venemous war gods if they bring him back to you? Bring him, not as they took him, a beautiful straight young god, But a figure broken and shattered, can you smile and kiss the rod? If he's given his eyes for his country and must walk in the dark through life, Can you give him yours unregretting, with the courage of a soldier's wife? If his youth and brightness have left him, and the face that you love is scared. Can you meet him with arms wide open, not knowing his beauty is marrear Can you be to him sensitive ringers, a crutch, without hurting his pride r Can you face each day with rejoicing, not feeling there's something to hide? Can you live without malace or hatred for a world that has taken so much? If you can, you're the mate for a soldier; you are hallowed by war's cleansing louch. Chrlatonher. 111.

This story is well-known in the camps, but somehow the soldiers have managed to keep it 10 them selves. On a certain part of the British line so the story runs information was leaking out and a reward was offered for the capture of the spy. The soldiers look up the hunt keenly, and one might while a member ofa patrol was out in No Man's Land he entered a shell shattered ruin and discovered a wrinkled old man whose clothing was all rags and tuners. "Gut you at last!" said the soldier. "Come out of it, you old blighter; you're tne man that s been spying on us for Jerry, are you?" The old man vigorously protested thai he was a patriotic Frenchman. "I've been here since 1870," he said, "and 1 haven't been relieved ye t." Chamberlain's Tablets.

An Irishman suffered from a stomach ailment. The doctor was called in, and on his second visit questioned his patient. "Have you been drinking hot water an hour before each meal, as I directed. If so, how do you leel now?" "Doc," said Pat, "I tried hard to do it, but I had to quit. I drank for thirty-five minutes, and feel like a balloon." GETTING A SECOND WIFE. "Woman Rules Here." Some lime ago The Companion, under the title A Cautious Lover, told the story of how the eccentric traveling evangelist, Lorenzo Dow, courted his first wife, Peggy. A subscriber who read the little arti cle with interesi has written us an entertaining account of his second matrimonial venture in which he was less cautious and, justly en ough, less fortunate. Some months after the death of Peggy, writes our contributor, Mr. Dow preached under a giant elm at Bean Hill, Norwich, Connecti cut At the close of the sermon he told of the death of his beloved Peggy and aroused the sympjihy of all his hearers. He paused a few moments for the display of emotion to subside, then nmd hr was ready lo marry again, and asked thai if any one in the audi ence would consent to be his wife she would signify it by rising. Miss Lucy Dolbear, tall and slate ly, rose, and with much dignity ex pressed herself as willing to accept him as her husband. "The Lord's will be done," said Lorenzo. Evidently, Miss Lucy somewhat regretted her hasty decision, for it was not until some time later that she came with him to the house of the minister in Salem, Connecticut to be married. The oouple arrived 'at midnight in the dark and rain and, quite like more romantic couples, rouied the minister by throwing gravel nn the window. He drowsily put his nightcapped head out of the win dow and inquired, "Who's there?" "It's Lorenzo Dow, and she says she is willing," was the reply that came from the darkness. The minister knowing the fickle ness of the lady, who had almost consented at other times, did not waste time in dressing, but ai once began the marriage ceremony. When he reached that part of the service where he asked Miss Lucy, Wilt ihou have this man to thy wedded husband? Wilt thou obey him, and serve him, love, honor and keep him in sickness and in health," she said "No! I will be a thorn in his flesh, a messenger from Satan to buffet him as long as 1 live." The ceremony was concluded hastily. How well she kept her word is shown by the fact that when Lorenzo built a house in Montviiir he ased of her the priv ilege of having one room for him self. Inii he had a huge fireplace built. The fircbiurd was painted blue, and on this suggestive back ground was painted a very bedrag gled rooster minus inosi of his tail leathers, and underneath the motto, "Woman rules here."

BY DOCTOR WATSON. People are easily frightened when they think something Is the matter with their lungs or heart, and well they may be; bat lew people understand the dangers ol diseased kidneys. These organs have a duty ot vital importance to perform, and if they are diseased, there ia no telling how or where the symptoms may appear. The kidneya are Altera, and when they are healthy they remove the poisons from the blood and purify it. When the kidneys are diseased, the poisons are spread every where, and one of lueae puieuus is uric acid. The nrie acid is carried all through the system and deposited In various places, In the form of urate salts in the feet, ankles, wrists and back often forming bags under the eyea. Sometimes the resulting trouble is called rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica and backache. Finally, come stone in the bladder, diabetes and Bright's disease. Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., In recent years, discovered that a certain com bination of remedies would dissolve uric acid (urate salts) in the system. He found this combination to be harmless so that be made it up in tablets, of double strength, and called them Anurio Tablets. Thev dissolve nrio acid in the human system aa hot coffee dissolves sugar. If you have uric acid troubles, don't delay in taking Anuric Tablets, which can be secured In the drui stores. You can write Dr. Pierce, too, and he will tell you what to eat and how to live so that more uric acid will not form in your system. Dr. Pierce sriU not cbans lor this advice.
