"AL these things I saw as a cream tj I moved from casemate’ ’ —• '■ matching to see Turics. Ir.g l . . or. w? ; had never seen death that this was the test of all possible! worlds. Col arms of smoke rose from the • :’ and town of Seddul Ba' .* as the great shells from the passed over oar heads and b-.st, and in every lull we heard the v-omtded. “ ‘ 1 o’clock I got 20,Off) mom from the fleet, ar.d the Laacashlres were appearing over roe ridge to the left from ‘Lar_ :ash:re lar.iir.z.’ We saw fifteen m. -r. In a window in the castle on the right by the water. They sig naled that they were ail that re mained of the Dubling who had landed at the Chamber at Seddul Bahr, At 3 o’clock ~-f; got 130 men alive to -shore. We watched our men working to the right and up into the castle ruins—at each cor ner the officer crouching in front revolver in rest. One watched through the fire zone ar.d held one’s breath and pressed the button of th_e Maxim. * Wher. right came a house in Seddul-Bahr was burning brightly ar.d there was a fa!] moon. We dl-embarked men at once. All around the wounded cried for help ar.d shelter against the bullets, but there wag no room on boats or gang way for anything but the rr.vn to come to shore. “You must remember that for t o nights no one had slept, and tsen another day dawned. We were firmly ashore at Lancashire "anding, ar.d at In Toit’s battery to the northeast, and the Austrians wcr% dug in at Anzac. An end had' to fee made of V beach. The whole fleet collected and all morning blew the ridge ar.d castle and town to pieces. "And ah that time wonderful Sn f 'try went forward up the hill t. 1 through the rained town. The troops that went in that attack had &:rea/iy lost half their strength; roe officers that led up those nar row streets were nearly all killed. Dead beat, 1 o’clock, before the final rash, they hesitated. Then our last colonel, a stuff man.

It is no; now. It may once, for women, have been comparable to slavery. I; is not now. Marriage, in fact, can not be classed with anything but itself. It is marriage and nothing else—a wonderful mixture of ex periences and duties on many dif j fcrem planes. So far as its spiritual demands go, it may ask of a woman, as of ’ a man. ail she has in her, or i; may not. So far as its materia, demands, go, it may require every thing or nothing. It may of neces sity fill her life or leave it empty. To cali it a profession is to blur its meaning, for it is much more than this and much less. To say of the home, which mar riage ought to create, that it Is “a ntan’s kingdom, a child's para dise, and a woman’s world," is a gitin to blur it® meaning. The home is no one's kingdom, no one's paradise and no one's world. The only kingdom it resemble is the kingdom of heaven, because it is within you. Home is dependent for its reality—ar.d its reality is a® deep as anything we know—up on a condition of spirit. -o SPECIALTY August chickens weight from 1 •nd 1-2 to 2 pounds each alive or .tressed, delivered at any time.
