Excerpt from What He Cost Her, Vol. 1 of 3 Above all the sounds that human ingenuity has invented to stir the heart of man, the bugle-call stands pre-eminent. It does not require for its appreciation imagination in the hearer, nor a particular phase of mind, nor a taste for music. The very charger pricks his ears and dilates his nostrils as he listens to it; and through the misty morning air it rings its reveille bright and clear, and spirit-stirring as the breezy call of incense breathing morn itself.
