THE OLD REGIMENT
Long agoTon a summer’s day
Over the hills they marched away
Kinfolk friends and the boys we knew
In childhood's blossoms and fields of dew
Changed in that hour to full-grown men
When the song of the bugle rang down the glen
With its wild appeal and its throb and thrall
(And they answered MYean to their country's call
TheKe furrow the plowshare slept''
O'ervft&CTand anvil a silence crept:
All night long through the village street)
sThundered the rhythm of marching feet
With clash of steel and the saber's clang
And the gray commander's stern harangue'
Till morning broke and they marched away
(Long ago on a summer’s day &
We Watched them go with their guns agleam3
Down past the mill and the winding stream
‘Across the meadows with clover deep
By the old stone wall where the roses creep
We watched them go till they climbed the hill
And they faced about as the drums grew
And waved their caps to the vale below
With its breaking hearts -that loved them sol
Forth they leaped to the surging' fray?'
Shoulder to shoulder io brave array
Ther strong souls steeled to their lips' tight so
And their ranks of blue were a thousand etrof
Bright were their banners and bright each swo
When the peals of the cannon upon them roared?
Their brave eyes still to the toemae turned
Where the sweep of the battleflamed andbuib
award still through the seething hell
'Avar’s dread slaughter they fought and fell
Forward still through the blinding gloom £
Of reeking carnage and death and doom:
Binding their wounds-in the moan-filled night
After tbe stress of the day’s fierce fight
When tears were wept foe tbe silent slain
In tbe hurried graves of the red field lain
Save for the maimed and h'
They come no more to t h cY v
In the old dear days of their childhood’s rirea
j But far away by the alien streams --1-1
On the scenes of their struggles their Still hearts sleep

the foe at Antietam stormed the lines - -And
the bloodstained bayonets at Seven Pines'

WHAT THE KING EATS
What's Fit for Him
A Mass lady who has been through
the mill with the trials of the usual
housekeeper and mother relates an
Interesting Incident that oceurrcd aot
long ago She says:
“I can with all truthfulness say that
Grape-Nuts Is the most beneficial of
all cereal foods In my family young
as well as old It Is food and medi-
cine both to us A few mornings ago
at breakfast my little boy said:
” ‘Mamma does the King eat Grape-
Nuts every mornlngT
"I smiled and told him I did not
know but that I thought Grape-Nut
certainly made a delicious dish fit for
a King” (It’s a fact that the King of
England and tbe derma Emperor
both et Grape-Nuts)
“I find that by the constant use of
Grape-Nuts not only as a morning ce-
real but alao 1 puddings salads etc
made after the delicious recipes found
In the little book In each package It '
Is proving to be gret nerve food
for me besides having completely
cured a long glsndlag cm of Indiges-
tion” Nam given by Poatum ‘ Co

There Is no doubt Grape-Nuts la th
most sctentlfle food In th world
Tn days trial of this proper food
In place of Improper foed will abew la
steady stronger nerves sharper brain
and tb power “to "” longer and
further uad accomplish more There’s
