His broken cap strap trembled below his chin, and his haversack, crowned by an inverted tin cup, was hitched up into an absurd At the man’s feet, a bare earthen mound rose against the line of the broken wall, and something that looked from below like a crooked root growing out of the side of the mound seemed to grasp the red light of the flaming stacks. Around the dark figure the minie balls and fragments of shell wailed like a jerky harp. ‘“‘There ain’t no flies on Henry,’ mumbled a wheel driver through a mouthful of hard tack. ‘ ‘“‘Come down from there, Price,’’ cried the captain, who had walked back on the road, attracted by the light. There was not the slightest move- ment in the bent figure. ‘*Price!’’ roared the aiptain. Henry Price sank slewly to his knees and pressed his face to the red twisted root.

This was not such a haz duty as might at first seem, for the non commissioned ofiicer h put up the bank a the oblivious man and drag him ov the declivity. The t me down to- - ~ The most critical period in a woman’s life may be properly called ‘* Blossoming Time.’’ It is the period when she blossoms from girlhood into womanhood At this momentous time the best medi- cine for a woman to take is Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It acts directly up- en the delicate and important organs that are to bear the burdens of wifehood and motherhood It makes them _ strong, healthy and vigorous. It corrects all irregularities inal displacements and stops exhausting drains. Taken during the pe riod of expectant maternity, it banishes the usual annoyances and makes baby’s coming easy and almost painless. It in- sures tne new-comer’s health and an amp supply of nourishment. It transforms weak, sickly, nervous, complaining wo- men into happy, healthy wives. _Thou- sands of women have told over their own signatures, the story of the marvelous merits of this great medicine. An hon- est dealer will not try to persuade you to take something different from what you ask for, for the sake of a few pennies ad- ded profit. Mrs. Anna Ulrich, of Elm Creek, Buffalo Co., Neb., writes: “I was under doctors’ care . : : I for two years with uterine dise ase. was 50 weak that I could sit up in bed ont a few FD nts. I commenced taking Dr. werle Prescription and when I had taken one- half dosen botties I was up and going meanest I pleased, and have been ae ae ever § ce —that was two years and a half ago.

I did it.’’ Price threw up his arms with a gesture of despair The light streamed down on to his ghastly upturned face and marked it Witn the 6 lor { f Ddlo vd. In an instant he recovered himself. ‘‘Listen, capt: n!’’ he exclaimed eagerly. ‘‘It was this way: He was in the southern army, Jim was. My regi- ment formed in this cut in the other battle. We were ordered up to the top of this very bank. As I came to the top —right there, captain—a soldier rushed in above me. Our guns went off togeth- er. That soldier was Jim. I saw his face as he fell. My God, I can never forget his look, captain. I was near enough to catch him in my arms, but my foot slipped, and I fell back into the road. I was mad to climb up again, but the rebs charged with a yell through the cut and swept us out. I hoped it was only a wound, but now I know the truth, Captain Sanderson—I did it.’’ Poor Price was an abject picture of misery as he uttered the final three words, standing dry eyed in the red road. ‘‘You see,’’ he continued, point- ing upward, ‘‘Jim lay just there where he fel), until the burial party found him—and they didn’t half do their work. Look, captain, that’s his skele- ton hand thrust out of his grave—Jim’s hand, with the gray sleeve beaten into the dirt by the rain.’’ ‘*My dear fellow,’’ said the captain, ‘*there is no certainty that it is your brother. ’’ ‘‘Don’t I know ?’’ said Price, witha hopeless expression of conviction. ‘Jim lost his forefinger fooling with « gun when we were boys together. The very same finger is gone from that hand up there. “*T killed my brother !”’ Price resented almost angrily the sort of sympathy that tried to throw doubt upon the identity of the remains. Sev- eral of the men who climbed up under t lter of the bank to where they could get a near view of the mound in the fierce light of the conflagration re- I ‘ a t cond . 1@ skele- ton han The index finger was cer- tainly wantit and a rag of gray tleeve, beaten down and rotted by the rain, lay about the opening in the soil. The only consolation that remcined to the stricken and contrite brother was the sad duty of reburial and the erec- tion of some object to mark the place. But for the restraint put upon him Price 114 have gone instantly about this work regardless of the scathing fire that nt the strangely lighted and exposed mound on the crest of the hill He unhooked a shovel from one cf the caissons and leaned impatiently on it awaiting his opportunity, but the final desperate struggle in the light of the burning buildings necessitated the hasty withdrawal of the battery from its and defenseless position, and when quict settled at last over the field Henry Price separated from the sunken road by two lines of pickets, and morning found the battery a long distance from Groveton crossroads. Soon after dawn Price presented him- self before the captain at the roadside. His face was haggard and his appear- ance indicated that he had passed a sleepless night. He was received with all the respect and sympathy due to the brother of Jim. ‘‘This is my last battle,’’ he said. ‘‘I have had a warning. There’s Jim back cramped was on the hill, half buried, and I shan’t live to reach him. Promise me one thing, captain—after the fighting is over have him decently buried.’’ ‘‘Don’t be silly,’’ said the captain. ‘*‘Promise me, sir,’’ said Price. “If we hold the ground,’’ said the captain, ‘‘I’ll have everything done that you wish; but pluck up heart, my man. You'll live to grow gray hairs yet.’’ ‘My hours are numbered,’’ said Price. ‘‘I am resigned to my fate now that I have your promise that you will look after Jim.’’ The captain was a kind hearted man, and the despondency of Jim’s brother touched him. ‘‘Go back to the forge,’’ he said, ‘‘and stop there. We'll cheat fate of its victim.”’ ‘‘That’s not my style!’’ exclaimed Price, and he turned away from the in- terview with the indignation of a man whose courage had been impugned. Before another night every extra duty man had taken a number at the guns. In the ragged garden of a burning house Henry Price stepped eagerly into a vacant place alongside a hot gun and put out his left hand to have the buck- skin thongs of the blackened thumbstall knotted about his wrist. “I reckon my time has come,’’ he said, looking acroes at the man with the lanyard and glancing down at the boy whose place he had taken. “It might better have been me than Dick.”’ i There was nitle time for talk ih the the fierce work that ensued in the neglected garden until the opposing battery was silent. When the firing did midst of cease, the sooty cannoneers threw them- selves down on the trampled weeds, ex- | cept Henry Price, who walked about on the blackened and smoking turf be- | fore the muzzle of the gun, every move- | * ment of his nervous figure uttering the dumb accusation, ‘‘I did it.’’ Every comrade knew that he was in the des- perate mood which impels men eagerly to court death in some forlorn hope. Henry Price was impatient of inac- tion and incapable of rest. When the battery blazed away again, puncturing the dun smoke with red flashes, and the return shells plowed the old garden between the hot guns, the tense excite- ment and the hard work filled him with grim satisfaction. When the man in front of him fell, he canght the grimy sponge and wielded it fiercely, glad to be uncovered, as if he had come that much nearer his fate. Once he fell him- self as he sprang backward to give the gun an opportunity to bark, but it was only a tangle of trampled rosebushes that caught his heel instead of a mes- sage of forgetfulness. In front of the tangled garden the fields sloped away for a mile into a broad valley, made up of pasture and grainfield and fenceless roads, away to the dark woods bevond the red railroad embankment. In the egrly darkness of that wild night Henry Price was half mad to shoulder a musket and get down into the line of his old regiment some- where in the thunder of rifles that rolled over the valley. (Lo be Continued ) |! RONG IDEA OF... YSPEPSIA Throws all the Blame on the Stomaech—The Real Seat of Trouble is the Intestines— The Permanent Cure is Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills. It is an old idea long since exploded that digestion is confined to the stomach. No modern scientist denies that by far the greater part of digestion and the more difficult part takes place in the intestines. This explains why dyspepsia is never really cured by pre- parations which merely aid stomach digestion and act only on théstomach, This fact also explains why Dr. Chase's Kid. ney-Liver Pills have been so remarkably suc- cessful as a cure for the worst forms of dyspep- sia and indigestion, Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills act directly en the kidneys, liver and bowels, and give new tone and vigor to the intestines, and make them able to perform their work of digesting the substances on which the stomach has no effect. Stomach treatment may do well enough for slight indigestion, but if you have chronic. in- digestion or dyspepsia of a serious nature you can profit by the experience of scores of thou- sands who have been permanently cured by using Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills.
