The years had buen kind since we parted —

The lights glimmered softly and low.

Forgive me,” I cried, “you were right,
And I was a coward for saying
The things I said to you that night!”
She thought for a moment and asked me,
Half under her breath, half aloud:
“What was it you gaid? I've forgotten—"
And then we strolled back to the crowd.

Men Who Charge with a Smile.
The meation of Kansas reminds me
of a remark that General Mac Arthur
made to me, when we passed a group
of Kansas men one day at San Fer-
nando. I asked him if they had not
been peculiarly daring. ‘‘Yes,” he
said, “those fellows will put a tooth-
brush through their hat-band and
charge with a smile straight to king-
dom come, if it is necessary; but,”
added General MacArthur, ‘‘they are
just the type of what all the rest of
the soldiers out here ave.”
That phrase, ‘‘charging with asmile,”
is not a fanciful one, but the state-
ment of a truth. I saw General Law-
ton order the Twelfth regulars to
charge at Taytay. The defenses of
this stronghold were known to be ex-
cellent, and it was also supposed that
about 3000 of the best soldiers in the
Filipino army were behind the in-
trenchments. Desultory firing had
been going on. A little time before
two men had been killed —shot through
the head, on the very spot where Gen-
eral Lawton stood when he ordered
the charge. It was across an open
space, perhaps a third of a mile, and
on level ground, interrupted only by
little rice ridges. The men ‘charged
with a smile.”
‘The same phenomena has been no-
ticed time and again. Some say it is
a kind of a grin. I think not. It
looked to me more like a smile of real
pleasure. Fortunately, in this in-
stance, the Filipinos had, a few min-
utes before, evacuated, and no casual-
ties 1esulted at that time. —Philadel-

*“Is he afraid?”
*‘Not only that, but he seems to be
ignorant on the subject. He was go-

when I ran across him, and said he

In these columns:

at treating. This is a barroom lle —an
idea originated by old topers and drunk-
ards who hopo in this way to get drunk
cheaply.
“Don’t go with fellows who have the
habit of treating; they are the teachers of
drunkenness. The road from treating to
drunkenness is straight; there is no re-

“‘Sell-respect is not learned in a bar-

self-respecting man will avoid touch with
such degraded manhood. Especially
young Irish fellows have got into this bad,
deplorable habit of showing their gen-
erosity and friendship by ‘treating’ their
friends. Generosity isa fine trait in the
charactor; but do not show generosity
by making drunkards. We have too many
of theses already among our sons and
fathers and brothers.
