Furthermore, when thf regiment en
tered upon Its first engagement Ed
wards fulfilled what was exits ted of
blm. While some other officers blanch

to their work, and at a critical mo

proved Incompetent and others were
disabled, he wired a ffag. sprang to
the front and saved the regiment fmm !

was maimed and he names It he Is
asked during which of several ptoeed
Ing war* that battle oi*curTod If he
lives long enough he belongs to a past
period with which the new generation
has little or no real sympathy.
Edwards on his return occupied the
pinnacle of heroism. The yonng men
spoke of him with envy: the gtrls lav
ished favors upon him. Thst dignity
whleh had always ho^n natural to hlra
added to his glory Several romantic
girls who were intatiated with th-?
Idea of being a hero's wife were read*

exportation of being Mrs Colonel Os

In short, the hero's heroism, so far r?

She began to see th*t the paths of
glory that don't lead to the grave lead

But the real pang came later. She

Edwards was a canoeist and begged
her to go out with him In his canoe
While he was paddllrg he attempted
to Change position Po clinnge post

Miss Krnory was a splendid swimmer
and. knowing that her lover could
also swim, paid no attention to him
till she had canght bold of the canoe
Then on looking al?oiit for him she
saw only his leg (looting. He was
unable to sink t. and It sank him.
Miss Emory swam for him. but w.i
unable to right him The shore w is

The spell that had been thrown
aronnd him as a hero wns dissolved
and be was now nothing bnt one of

A year later she married an army
