VETERANS,
MACON, GA.,
Dec. 19, 1898.
“ Every soldier's grave made du> mg
the unfortunate civil usr'i:. a tribute to j
American valor; and while when those. j
graves were made we differed widely
about the putui e of the government, those
diffi rentes were long ago settled by the
arbitrament of arms, and the time has
come, in the evolution of sentiment and
feeling, in the providence of God, ivhen in
the spirit of fraternity we should share |
with you in the care of the graves of Con
federate soldiei
Macon seems to have furnished the most sensational incident of President (Mc-
Kinley’s Southern trip, in that Dr. Roland B. IHall, a member of the Bibb County
C.tmp of Confederate Veterans, which met and welcomed the President upon his ar
rival in Macon, pinned one of the veterans’ badges on President McKinley’s coat.
Pho incident has been published throughout the country, and this has led to
numerous requests for badges as souvenirs of the occasion. Colonel C. M. Wiley,
commander of the ißibb Camp Confederate Veterans, has received several requests for
these badges, as has iDr. Hall, mainly from Northerners. It has been necessary to
make more badges iq, order to supply thh demand, and yesterday The (News struck
off for Colonel Wiley a new lot for distribution as souvenirs.
The badge worn by the Confederate Veterans, and also by President McKinley on
•the occasion in question was designed and presented to the Veterans by Mr. Tom W.
Loyless. editor of The News. They were made of Confederate grey satin ribbon,
three inohes wide by ten long, printed in blue and set off at the top by a bow of
narrow patriotic ribbon. The badges were hastily made, only about three hours
bt ing allowed in which to turn them out, but it was the general verdict that they
were peculiarly appropriate to £he occasion. The above illustration is a sac-simile
of the badge that has since become famous by reason of the fact that it was worn by
an < x-Vnion soldier and Republican President.
Oilcloth Collings.
Oilcloth is the new material for paper
ing ceilings, the term “paper” being used
at present in a very elastic sense, signify
ing anything that can be put on walls or
ceiling. The rd . antage of an oilcloth
ceiling is readily discernible, as dust, like
good actions, is sure to rise, and if one’s
home is illuminated by gas or lamps there
• is only the recourse to the unsightly chan
' tidier protectors to keep the ceiling fixm
getting smudged. Th/ bilcloth can be
washed frequently and be kept, by the aid
of a damp doth, as good as now tor in-,
finite spaces of time or until one irones to
a newer apartment.
The task of putting on the oilcloth re
quires an expert, as the joining is not the
easiest thing to do. If you think so, try it.
The patterns of oilcloths seem particularly
well adapted for ceilings, with their scroll
and line effects, which do not conflict with
the patterns of <ae wall paper or its mono
chromatic effect.
In line with the ceilings is the new ma
terial for kitchen window curtains.—New
York Hera hl.
Broke the Record.
A London paper says that an adjutant
in the Salvation Army has achieved the
remarkable feat of singing 59 hymns ir
69 minutes. The occasion on which this
record was made was called a “singing
battle.” He began with “I Will Follow
Jesus,” and hymn after hymn followed
swiftly. When he reached the doxology
after singing eight extra hymn% he was
2h minutes ahead of the stipulated time.
When he finished, he shouted, “Bieas the
Lord, I‘ve broken the record!”

lie does not
have to be a physician to understand the
causes of impure blood, or its far-reaching
effects. When a man’s digestion is disor
dered, his liver sluggish, his bowels inac
tive, the blood is deprived of the proper
food elements, and the sluggish liver and
bowels supply in their place, the foulest
of poisons. The blood is the life-stream.
When it is full of foul poisons, it carries
and deposits them in every organ and tis
sue of the body. Bone, sinew, muscle, and
flesh-tissue, the brain cells and the nerve
fibres are all fed upon bad. poisenous food.
Serious ill-health is bound to resujt. The
man is weakened in every fiber of his body.
He is weakened physically, mentally and
morally. He suffers from sick headache,
distress in stomach after meals, giddiness
and drowsiness, loss of appetite and sleep,
bad taste in the mouth, shakiness in the
morning, and dullness throughout the day.
and lassitude and an indisposition to work.
Sooner or later these conditions develop
consumption, nervous prostration, malaria,
rheumatism, or some blood or skin disease.
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is
the best of all known medicines for ambi
tious, hard-working men and women. It is
the great blood-maker and flesh-builder.
It makes the appetite keen and hearty, ard
the digestion and assimilation perfect, the
liver active, the blood pure and rich, the
nerves steady, the body vigorous and the
brain alert. Where there is also constipa
tion Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets should be
used. Both of these great medicines are
for sale by all medicine dealers.
