dreams were futile and lli-ptlng.
NoverrheloRH, one briRlit mornliiir In
flip latter part of December, little Hilly
walked Into Ills motlier'H humble home,
weary and footsore. Aunt Sally heard
his footsteps on the door sill, and. weak
us she was, sat up In bed and held out
her arms to hlin. Her dreams had
come true, but they had come true too
late. When little Billy removed the
support of his arms. In order to look at
his dear mammy's face, she was deiul.
Tho Joy of moetlnir her son again was
too much'for the faithful and tender
heart.
All that could be done by kind hearts
and willing hands was done by Mbts
Mary and the npiRhbors. Little Hilly
shed no tpnrs. The shock had be
numbed all his faculties. He went about
In a dazed condition. Hut when, the day
after tho funeral, he went to tell Miss
Mary good-by, the ineffable pity that
phone In her face touched the source

thus they parted. Hut for many a lonK
day little Hilly felt the pressure of soft
and i-osv lins on hln forehead.
Tie sold the old mule that had served
his dear mammy so fuithlully, and this

with e.e much cheerfulness as he could
command.
. "I'm mighty Blad to see you.old man,"
said Chadwlrk. "1 knowed In season
that you was certain to come bark
and, sure enough, here you are. You've
had trouble, too. Well, trouble has Rot
a lonfr run and a hard hand, and I ain i
never saw the livin' human beln" th'
could frit away from It when it begins
to feel around for .'em,"
"Yes." replied little Hilly, simply,
"I'll never have any more trouble like
that I'Ve bad."'
"It's mlshty hard at first always," re
marked Private Chadwlck. with a fllfih.
,."but It's migthty seasonln'. The man
that ain't the better for It In the lonR
run ain't much of a man. That's the
way I put It down."
"Am I a deserter, sure cnouRh?"
asked little Billy, suddenly remember
ing his position.
"Well, It's a mixed case," answered
the private. "You've cone and broke
the rules and articles of war I reckon
that's what they call 'em. You took
Dutch leave. The Cap said If you didn't
come back in ten days he'd send a Hie
of men after you, and then your cake
would "a" been all dough. Hut now
you've come back of your own free will,
and tho case is mixed. You are uound
to he arrested. All that's been fixed,
and that's the reason I've been eomin'
to train every -day pence you've been
gone.- I wanted to arrest you myself."
"Then I'm a prisoner," suR(festd lit
te Hilly.
"That's about the size, and shape of
It," replied Private Chadwlck.
His tone was so emphatic that little
Hilly looked at him. 6ut there was a
kindly llffht In the private's eyes and a
pleasant smile lurkliiR under his mus
tache; so that tho younpr fellow thought
he might safely go back to his Rilef
ajfaln.
When they arrived at camp Private
Chadwlck, with a erpat show of fierce
formality, led little Hilly to the guard
tent, and there placed him In charge of
a newly-made corporal, who knew so
little of his duties that he went Inside

A ITofcsslonul Nurse Afflieied
with
Brllit's iitscase of the Kidneys
l'lnds a Cure.
(From tho Buffalo News.)
Mrs. A. E. Taylor has resided In Buf
falo for over forty years, her address is
250 Herkimer avenue; as a professional
nurse she has nursed back to health
many a sufferer. Disease In all Its
varied forms have become as familiar
to her as to the regular practitioner.
Her occupation is one that taxes the
strongest constitution, but tho fatigue
of long watching and nursing at Inst
brought her to a lied of sickness. Mi.
Taylor speaks of her complaint and
rure as follows: "After being con
fined to my bed for some time my dis
ease assumed such a serious aspect
that a doctor was called In. He. pro
nounced my ailment Brlght's disease of
the kidneys in the third degree and a
very had case. . My limbs swelled tip so
that 1 could not walk across tho floor,
or. Indeed, help myself In any way.. Mv
face bloated up and my eyes swelled so
that tho sight was badly Impaired.
This condition continued for nearly
two months without any marked
Improvement from the doctor's treat
ment. I have taken quarts of buchu
and Juniper. I tried battery treatment,
but all without any lusting benefit until
I felt like Anally giving up In despair.
Hearing of Doan's Kidney Pills I gave
them a trial, and after taking three
boxes I was able to get up without as
sistance and walk, something I had not
done In months. I continued to steadi
ly improve with th?lr use. Tho swell
ing In my leg left, tho color returned to
iny face, changing from a chalky color
to a healthy bloom. I now consider my
self entirely cured and T shall never
rest praising the little pill that saved
me.

At tho end he informed little Hilly that

the next day a squad of picked men
from the conscript camp was to go to the
front In charge of Private Chadwlck,
the enemy huvlng shown, a purpose, to
make a winter campaign.
"Would you like to go?" the captain
asked.
Little Hilly seized tho captain's arm.
"Don't fool me!" he cried. "If I'm tit'
to go. let mo go. That's whut I'm long
ing for."
The rnrtain felt about In the dark for
littlo Billy's hand, und grasped it. " You
Hlmll go," ho said, and walked from the
dark tent Into the starlight outBlde.
The nights are long' to those who
sleep with sorrow, but, after all. the
days come oulckly. as little Hilly soon
found out. The next morning he found
hiniHcIl' whirling away to Virginia,
where some cruel business was on foot.
The days went fast enough then, and
the railway tralii. with Its load of sol
diers, puffed and snorted as If it wanted
to go faster, too; but It went fast

toiii.u h impiii..'HiU', oini they were
soon mixed with men iivho were wound
ed and with men who were running
away. Some of the latter turned again
when they saw the reinforcement
rushing forward 'pell-mell.- -
Little Hilly was far In front of the
others. He heard the crackle of mus
ketry and the thunder of the cannon,
and ran toward the nnoke and con
fusion. A shell dropped In front of
him and spun around, spitting lire, but
he ran on, and never even heard the ex
plosion that shattered the trees around,
and played havoc with the reinforce
ments that were following.- He Jumped
over men thnt were lying on the
ground, whether dead or wounded, he
never knew. Some one, apparently in
commund, yelled at him with a savage
curse, but he paid no attention to it.
Directly in front of him he taw a bat
tery of three gunB. Two were In action,
but one had no ono to manage It. On
each side of this battery, and a little to
the rear, the line of battle stretched
away.
Seeing little Hilly running forward,
followed by the recruits from the train,
the line of battle bepran to cheer, and at
the same time to advance. He had
practiced with an old six-pounder at
the conscript camp, and ho now ran, as
if by instinct, to the gun that had been
silenced. The confederates charged,
but had to fall back again, and then
they began to retire slowly at first, and
then with some haste. Little Billy
paid no attention to tlila movement at
all. He continued to serve his gun and
fire It as rapidly as he could. Shot and
shell from the federal batteries plowed
up the ground nround him. but never
touched him. Presently a tall man with
a long brown beard rode out. of tho
smoke and ordered little Rilly to re
treat, pointing, a3 he did so, to the
bristling line of federals charging up
the hill.
"Take hold of my stirrup," said the
tall man. He smtrred his horse into a
rapid trot, and littlo Hilly trotted by his
side, mightily helped by holding on to
the stirrup. In this way they were
soon out of sight, and in a little whllo
had caught up with the muln body,
which had planted Itself a couple of
miles farther back, while the brigade In
which little Billy had fought was hold
ing the enemy at bay.
Littlo Billy's face was black with
powder, but his eyes shown like stars.
Ho know now that never again would
danger or the fear of death cause him
to flinch.
"What regiment do ycu belong to?"
asked the tall man, ns they went along.
"None," replied little Hilly, simply.
Then he told how he was just from a
conscript ramp In Georgia. When they
arrived at tho confederate position the
tall man called to an olMcer.
"This Is my rear guard," stld he. "See
thnt he Is cared for.". Then to little
Hilly: "When this affair blew;; ov-::',
brush up and call en C-encial Kcb
Stuart. He herds a courier, und you
are the man."
As there was no sign of a fight the
next day, little Hilly went to Cencral

the day before, took him by the arm and
Introduced him to his staff, and told
how he had found him serving a gun,
after tho entire brigade had begun to
retreat.
Thlu was the beginning. Little Billy
became a courier, then an old, and
when the war closed he was In comand
of .a regiment. His recklessness as a
flghtor had rjlvcn a sort of romantic
color to ha name, so that the news
paper corrc3HTndents found nothing
more popular than some anecdote about
Colonel Cochran.
His fame hud preceded him to Hills
borough) and he had a queer feeling
when the older cltinens. men who had
once awed him by t'"-'- irlde and their
fine presence, too'.t ' hats as they
greeted htm, The most demonstrative
among these wus Major (loolsby.
"You a it to come l ircht to my house,
colonel. You belong to mi, you know."
Thl3 was Major Uoolby's greeting, un
he clung to Colonel Co; bran's hand.
"It will be a great surprise to Mary.
She'll never know you In the round
world. Why, ycu've grown to be a six
footer." So there wus nothing for Colonel
Cochran to do but t go t" the (fools
by's plaec, a fine house built on n 1:111
beyond the old church. The major
wanted'to glvo his dutiahtrr a s-uvptl.-e
and so he carried Co!o:iel Cor bran hit"
the parlor, and then told Miss .!:u.v
tint one of her friends had risMril to si.

' The young lady wont skipping Into
the parlor, and then tnutrt'l, with i
frightened air, as she saw a sis-foot
man in a faded uniform rise to meet
her.
"Miss Mary," said Colonel Cochran,
holding out h's hand.
"Are you" She paused, grew white
and then red. and suddenly turned and
run out of the room, nearly upsetting
the major, who was standing near the
door.
"Why, what on earth's the matter?"
he cried. "Well, If this don't orat
Did she know you. colonel?"
"I'm afraid she did," replied the colo
nel, grimly.
The major tiptoed to his daughter's
room, opened the door softly and found
her on her knees by her bed. crying.
Thereupon he tiptoed back ngiln nnd
said to Col. Cochran: "It's all right.
She's crying."
The colonel smiled dryly. "If T make
the women cry, what will the children
do when they sec me?"
The major laid his bund nfi'ectlon-
ntely on Cochran's arm. "Don't you i
fret," he said. "Just wait."
And so wonderful are the ways of
women, that when MIsk Mary rame !
out aguln. she greeted the colonel cor
dially, and was as gay as n lark. And I
nothing would do but he must light his I
battles over ae.uln. which he did with
great snlrlt when he hiiw her line eyes
kindling with enthusiasm, end her lips

helping him with the garment noticed

from one of the pockets. Being of a
waggish nature he aiipropiaT-ted the
bottle, helped the stranger on with his
coat and then pulling out the llask said:
"Will you tuke a drink'.'"
The old man did not recognize the
bottle, and drawing himself up remark
ed, rather severely: "No, sir, 1 never

"It won't hurt you," insisted the wag.
"It's the best."

A moment later he dropped the bottle
with an exclamation which certafnly
didn't sound like a blessing, and yelled
out:
"Ugh! ugh! my mouth's all raw."
