paper thank the attending physician*

vice rendered us during the illness and
after the death of our darling son
brother, also for the besutifal floral of-
It’s many a lonesome, longsome day
Since you embarked from the U 8 A.,
And you meet some meb—it’s it great biig
war—
From burgs tbht you never had known
before,; **
And you landed here, and your rest camp
mate r .
Waa a mao frqjm some strange and dis
tant Stake.
Liked him? Yra; but you wanted to
A man from the town where you used
to be.
And then you went, by design or chance,
All over the well-known map of France;
And you yearned with a yearn that grew
and grew
To talk with a man from the place you
knew.
And some lugubrious morning when
Your morale is batting about .110,
“Where are you from?” and you make
reply,
And the o. d. warrior says ; “So am I.'
And the universe wears a smiling face
As you spill your talk of the old home
place;
You talk of the streets and the home
town jokes,
And you find that you know each other’s
folks;
