They would like to have been with tho Strathcoiias or with old members of the Canadliin Mounted Rifles. wltli whom they fought in South Africa, but that nienat that they would lose several weeks crussiiig and rocrossliig the Atlantic, and. like their follow-(liiiiutlluiis who “passed up" Vnlcurtler they wanted .to bo there when the first blow was struck.

Horse Shot Under Him.

A withering fire was kept up by the

enemy's guiiners and rifienien, and the Canadian had covered barely iuore than hull the distance when his horse was shot from under liini while gallop- ing at full speed. The gallant rider was badly injured in the full, and for some niiliiites lay unconscious. His one thought when he recovered his senses was te get his inessage through. ind this he proceeded to do. Although suffering intense pliyslcul pi-ilu the young Canadian siicccotlcil in crawling to cover.

OVER THE DUNES.

(ily Norroys Johnson O'Comior.

the dunes the ducks arc flying. the sea-breeze brings their gentle crying

Over the duties.

Over And

where the sea’s wlilte hair is blowing. long dark lines of ducks is going

Over the dunes.

Out

The

leafless trees are straight and spare;

sea is singing an ancient air

Over the dunes.

The

marsh lies lone and diui and still;

fine sand follows tht: wliidis will

Ovcr the dunes.

The Tile

A gong of geese coinos from the south, Anil heads the marsh nt Mill Creek

mouth.

Ovcr the dunes.

My licart is glad for an open placc- _ The sen. and the sky. and the iiifluile

space _

Over the dunes. `

lily heart is glad for the things that

ure:

yet I long for a land afar,

Over the duties.

And

A liiuil where clouds of silver grey is the lrlsli land in the evening alrinin Circles the hilltops far away

Ovcrtlle dunes

The sight of all in the world most fair ls' the lrlsli land in the evening air

Over the dunes.

Turning my back t.o the silent sea I go where the housedlglit sumiuoii

nie '

_ Over the dunes.

Iii the garden-walk, by the patch of

fern

A fiiir-haired girl waits my return

` _ Over the-dunes.

Sing

her the .song my loile heart sings,

Wild

ducks. flying with beating wings

Over the dunes.

the duties the ducks are flying, the sea breeze brings their gentle

crying

Over the dunes.
