"WORTH DYING FOR."

This moving little stovy was given to a correspondent by a lady who is doing very important, war wtvk iu London: "Bather a beautiful thing was said to me a few days ago by a wounded Tommy. I was looking at a bit of Kensington Palace wild garden thousands of daffodils and violet crocuses in flower, under some trees just breaking into leaf; terribly beautiful as it all appeared to me at the moment:! I suddenly realised that the soldier boy was standing by me, looking also. I said: 'That's worth living for. isn't it?' And he replied quite simply: 'Yes, miss or dying for!" This t omo is worth a hundred sonnets and poems, however lovely.
