And deem It not weaknem to shed
Tears o'er hla grave. -Strew
flowers with memory's hand.
Float o'er him the flag of our land
He died to save.
The red for the blood he shed.
The white for bis sonl so pure.
The blue for the sky o'erhead.
Where his name shall aye endure.
Be was only a stripling young.
But ne'er hath the poet sung
Of one so brave.
In the carnage of shot and shell.
With the broken staff, he full,
And found a grave.
Oh, then, scatter the roses red.
Red, red as the blood he shed,
And lilies white;
Weave In the forget-me-not1! hue,
A garland red, white and blue
Our emblem bright.
The red for the blood he shed.
The white for hla soul so pnre.
The blue for the aky o'erbead.

Orace be Baron.
THE TWO COLOR BEARERS
Philip Larrabee came of good stock.
Be was descended on his father's side
from one of those hardy seamen who first
sailed under the now historic Ark of our
country. In the memorable navnl fight
off Portland between the Yankee craft
Enterprise and the British brig Boxer,
Philip's ancestor bore a gallant and con
spicuous part It was into his arms th
youthful Commander Burroughs full, re
fusing to be carried below; he, who
when the sword of the vanquished enemy
was presented to him, clasped his hands
and exclaimed: "I am satisfied. I die
contented."
On the other side of the family tree
the fires of patriotism burnt equally aa
bright.
Time and time again had Philip, when
a lad, begged his father to tell him the
story of that memorable fight on the vil
lage green nt Lexington, where his grand
father sealed with his life's blood his de
votion to a just and noble cause.
The life of Philip Larrabee, like that of
his father, seemed destined to be an
eventful one, but one of those fatal epi
demics which periodically sweep throngh
a community left Philip and his sister
Martha, some three years his senior,
alone to struggle against a cold and un
sympathetic world.
Philip and his sister had a widowed
annt who lived on the outskirts of one of
those villages that so picturesquely sit
on the rugged coast of the old Bay State,
overlooking the blue waters that con
tinually kiss its shore. In the humble
abode of this good woman, who in every
way tried to heal their griefs and fit
them for the stern realities of life, the
two orphan children fonnd a home and
a loving heart Having a natural taste
for the water, Philip soon became expert
in the sailing of little craft
Martha, under his tuition, in time
could handle a boat almost as well, and
often she would, while Philip was away,
be seen at the helm managing it with
the ease and grace of her brother.
Philip's eighteenth birthday had come
and gone, and he had now developed into
a sturdy, well formed young man. One
evening he came home from the village
quite late an occurrence unusual for
him, for he rarely missed sitting down
to the evening meal with his aunt and
sister.
"I wonder where Phil can be?" said
Martha. "Here it is after 7 o'clock and
no sign of him yet"
But in this she was mistaken, for
glancing ont of the window she saw
Philip rapidly coming np the road, open
the gate, and running np the neat gravel
walk leading to the house, burst into the
room before her annt had replied to her
question.
"Why, Philt What is the matter?
Has anything dreadful happened at the
village?" exclaimed Martha.
"Yes yes, everything has happened!
Fort Sumter has been fired upon the
president has called for troops, and I
have enlisted I"
As Philip said this he clasped Martha
in his strong arms, and before she could
recover from her amazement at the start
ling news, he pressed a warm and loving
kiss upon her lips and continued:
"Don't discourage me from going,
Mar Uia please don'tl 1 feel as though
father and mother would rise up in their
graves and point their fingers at mo in
scorn if I refused to respond to our coun
try's appeal. I would disgrace the blood
that flows through our veins if I now
failed to do my duty."
Philip looked down into his sister's
face. A bright smile greeted his glance,
and as she tried to keep back the tears
she said:
"Phil, if you had done otherwise I be
lieve I should have hated you as much as
I now love you!"
The next twelve months were most
eventful ones in the life of Philip Larra
bee. With feelings of pride and joy, but
mingled with feur and anguish, Martha
followed, through the accounts in the
papers and letters from Philip, the move
ments and deeds of his regiment es
pecially 60 when after one of those des
perate engagements that occurred in the
earlier period of the war she read of
Philip's promotion to sergeant and color
bearer. He had seized tho regimental
flag from the hands of him who relin
quished it only in death, aud had bravely
carried it through tho rest of that sun
gniuary day till victory at last perched
upon its tattered folds.
Philip's regiment, thinned by death
and disease to loss than ono-half of its
origiuul uumber, now enjoyed a brief
Benson of rest.
In comfortable quarters, consisting of
log hula built from the neighboring for
est, they poacefully and quietly passed
the winter months in the beautiful val
ley of the Shenandoah. Spring drew
near, and as it approached active prep
arations for the coming campaign were
begun. During the commencement of
these preparations Philip one day re
ceived orders to report to the colonel ot
his regiment.
He found the colonel standing in front
of the rough fireplace in his little quar
ters, npparpntly in deep thought and
awaiting his coming. "Philip," said h,
turning and gazing steadily into his eyo
aj though he would read his inmost
thoughts, "the goncral has requested of
mo a man, one that I know to be brave,
discreet and to be depended upon un
der the most trying circumstances. He
desires him for a service which will not
only require nerve and courage, bnt will
at times place him in positions of tho
most desperate and dangerous character.
I know no one in the regiment whom I
could so trustingly rely upon as yourself.
Do you care to volunteer?"
Without a moment's hesitancy Philip
calmly replied, "Colonel, I am ready at
all times to serve my country in any ca
pacity dnty requires."
As the colonel proceeded to unfold to
him the mission the general wished to
send him upon, and the manner in which
he was t leave, a deathly pallor for a
moment overspread Philip's face.
The colonel stopped. "Do you hesi
tate?" said he. "This is to be voluntary
on your part; you are not obliged to go
if yon do not wish to do so."
"No no," Philip replied, "I wish to
go it is my desire to do so, but I wna
thinking for a moment of Martha, my
sister, and of the pain she would suffer
when she hears of my being missing. I
ra ready, colonel. I will try and do
my duty, but if anything should happen
to mo see that no stain is allowed to
rest on my name."
It was late when Philip left the col
onel's quarters. As he did so the old
veteran grasped him warmly by the
hand, and while a tear trickled down
his bronzed cheek said: "God bless and
protect you, Philip. I hopo to be tho
first to welcome you back."
The next morning Philip Larrabee,
for the first time since his enrollment as
a soldier, failed to answer his name at
the roll call. Doubt, uncertainty and
innuendoes nro as great a load for a lov
ing heart to carry as tho deepest sorrow.
Martha, alarmed at first in not hearing
from Philip as nsnal, felt her heart sink
( within her when she learned that he was
reported as missing. Everything relat
ing to his strange disappearance was of
the most vague aud unsatisfactory char
acter. He was missing from his com
pany, that was all that was kuown.
Whether ho had deserted, whether he
was alive or dead, no one seemed able to
tell. But Martha believed him to be
alive, although she could not fathom the
mystery. She moved about as in a
trance, and seemed oblivious to all her
surroundings.
Soon after this the little boat, once the
constant companion of these two loving
hearts, was fonnd in a battered condi
tion on the rocky shore of the bay some
distance from the village. Its mistress
was not to be found. The villagers said
she had at last given away to her grief
and sought consolation and rest in the
deep waters that knew her so well
The army had now moved forward
and was in close proximity to the enemy.
Among those who stole into the Union
lines after this advance was a person ap
parently a fanner. He proceeded at
once to the headquarters of Philip's regi
ment, and the colonel, so the sentinel on
dnty there afterward declared, threw
his arms around his neck and hugged
him with joy. They were soon in the
presence of the general, and although it
is not known what happened at the in
terview it was evidently of an important
nature.
The next day Philip Larrabee report
ed to the captain of his company for
duty and once more took charge of the
colors.
The thunder of battle once more re
sounded throngh the peaceful hills and
valleys of the Shenandoah. The bri
gade, of which Philip's regiment formed
a part, laid on its arms under cover of
some woods opposite one of the enemy's
strongest intrenchments. From these
works the Confederate) batteries kept up a
most active and deadly fire. These guns
must be silenced, and to do so the brigade
is ordered to take them at the point of the
bayonet At the command the troops
move out from under the cover and take
position in full view of the enemy. The
lines are formed, orders given, and the
command moves forward under a ter
rible fire as steadily as if on parade.
A large opening consisting in part of
meadow, and then the rough ground of
an old potato patch has to be passed be
fore the hills are reached on which the
enemy is so securely intrenched. As the
brigade moves through the meadow they
get orders to "double quick," and with
cheer upon cheer they steadily push for
ward under a murderous fire. When
the edge of the potato patch is reached
Philip, still carrying the colors, stops,
staggers in his tracks and fulls forward.
The line hesitates, wavers, as though un
able to proceed further. As Philip sinks
to the ground, death stamping its seal
upon his noble face, a comrade catches
with one hand the staif, now stained
with the warm life blood of its faithful
guardian; then, bending over his almost
lifeless form, exclaims in tones of inde
scribable anguish and tenderness:
"Phil! my dourest Phil!"
What voice is that? At its tender and
appealing tone the dying man looked
into the face of his comrade a look of
happiness a recognition in which soul
speaks to soul, a light of unutterable joy
for a second steals over the shadow of
death, aud in a dying whisper murmurs
"Murtha!"
The pause is but momentary fright
ful gups close up and tho lines move for
ward with renewed precision nnd do
termination. The colors again proudly
flout through the smoke of battlo. With
eyes fastened upon its torn and blood
stained folds, now being borne toward
the enemy far in udvanco, tho men clear
the potato patch and charge with re
doubled ciforts up tho hill from which
their ranks meet death aud desolation.
The color bearer is first on tho heights,
but tho next instant the deadly minnie
bull seeks another victim, and Murtha,
tho heroine, the noblo successor of her
brother, falls lifeloss insido the enemy's
works. Her spirit takes its flight with
that of Philip's, and both will awake to
the reveille in anothor world. O. A. B.

No Medium Like tho Newspaper,
The advertising man of a well known
New York clothing house says: "We
wrro tho first to uso tho sails of ves
sels as an advertising medium. Then
we got np the 'alphabet puzzle,' and
gave away 60(1,000 puzzles while tho
craze lasted. Afterward we invented
the Wnterbnry watch idea. VS'o had to
do something, because three of our prin
cipal competitors had failed, and their
stocks wore being sold for next to
nothing by assignees; so we decided to
give a Wnterbnry watch with every
twelve dollars' worth of goods pur
chased. We advertised the watches
'wound nnd set' To wind them fast
enough we had to rig up a little machine
worked like a sewing machiue that
would do the winding, nnd we kept
several boys at work winding and setting
them. Before we quit we had given
away 40,000 of the watches.
"But nothing ever pays us like the or
dinary newspaper advertising. The fact
is there has come to be in this city a
class of advertisement renders just as
there is of news readers. They read the
advertisements every day, ahd of conrso
the man who wants to attract them has
to get np an advertisement that will do
it The day of standing advertisements
in the paper, 'QotoSo-and-So's for cloth
ing,' or 'Go to This-and-That's for shoes,'
has passed, just as the day for painting
signs on rocks and fences or on the sails
of loats has passed. You must have
something interesting and fresh in every
advertisement, nnd it will be read.
A Place for Talent.
In nearly all regulated lines of indus
try at present the advertising man is one
of tho most important adjuncts of a
business. And on the tho other hand
tho advertising department of a first
cliiss newspaper is not what it used to
be, but is instead fiist becoming an in
teresting feature of all enterprising jour
nals. Formerly the prevailing idea
among the uninitiated was that the
talented, the best, most versatile and
most ingenious writers nnd nrtiHts were
all employed in tho news department.
How nearly correct this idea may have
been need not be stilted, but that such is
not the case now may be seen by n
perusal of the "ads" of any flourishing
paper. The competitions between the
merchants nnd between the papers'
agents have become so great that the
great wholesale nnd retail houses of tho
large cities employ talented men nt big
salaries to attend to their advertising
alone, nnd the men who want the best
positions in the counting rooms of news
papers must combine fine business quali
fications with the talent that wins suc
cess in the editorial chair. Yenowine's
News.
Advertising Necessary to Success.
The merchant or manufacturer who
does not advertise his goods cannot suc
ceed. Of late newspaper advertising has
become a distinct trade in itself, and all
over the country leading concerns pay
fabulous prices for men who are skillful
in writing catchy advertisements. In
many large cities there are men earning
from 13,000 to $10,000 a year to write ad
vertisements. This fact in itself shows
advertising pays.
If people interested in this subject
will investigate it for themselves they
will find that the leading advertisers in
The Plain Dealer are the merchants who
have the best stores, the best assort
ments of goods and who sell at the most
reasonable prices. Such merchants do a
much larger business than merchants
who do not advertise; consequently they
turn their goods over more quickly and
can afford to give better prices. Close
buyers appreciate this. What is the
moral? He who advertises the most
judiciously succeeds the best, and the
buyers who seek the best bargains
patronize such merchants. Cleveland
Plain Dealer.
Never Be Commonplace.
"Bring your feet with you and have
them fitted to a pair of our common
sense shoes," is the way a Pittsburg
dealer advertises. It is a good phrase
and one which attracts attention. The
man who succeeds in advertising in such
a way that people read his advertise
ment is the one who draws trade to his
store as sure as a magnet draws a needle
to itself. Study np quaint, pithy or
witty phrases to head your advertise
ments, and be not too modest in the
space they occupy. Brockton Shoe.
Regular Publications Best,
No one takes up a regular publication
without the expectation of finding some
thing of interest The simple act of
turning the pages is as positive an ex
ample of expectation as is the opening
of a closet if one is in search of a coat.
Hence an announcement in a regular
publication has an advantage over any
other form of business solicitation that
of meeting the sought for eye at a time
that it is in a mood for such greeting.
A. C. Ladd.
Fulfill Every IYomlse.
The merchant who desires the confi
dence and custom of intolligont people
should never make a promise that ho
does not fulfill, or hold out, cither by
express statement or inference, any in
ducements that are not fully substan
tiated by the facts. There is no endur
ing success where confidence is lacking
on tho part of customers. Any success
not fonndod on square and liberal deal
ing is sure to be short lived.
Uho Common Souse.
That people shonld use the same prac
tical common senue in advertising that
is necessary to transact any other busi
ness would seem to be an indisputable
proposition. Vet there aro gentlemen
who are extremely good business men
in all other respects who will make
grievous errors in this direction. Knox
ville Sentinel.
Must Have Genius.
The simplest advertisements some
times require the most care and thought
in their construction. To write a column
is a matter of time, but to edit it down
into a sentence is something more.
