"I am over forty-five."

--Well, what if you are? It may be you are as stout as many men in the army who are twenty-five or thirty. If God has blessed you with health and vigor of body, the stringent demand of your country will not excuse you. Old and steady men are needed in the service. Enter it, or hire a substitute. Many poor men are ready if you will assist them.-- S. W. Baptist.
