When your siomach begins to trouble
you it needs help. The help it needs is
to digest your food, and until it gets it
you wont have any peace. Stomach
trouble is very distressing, very obsti
nate, very dangerous. Many of the
most dangerous diseases begin with sim
ple indigestion. The reason is that in
digestion (not digestion, not nourish
ment) weakens the system and allows
disease germs to attack it. The antidote
is Shaker Digestive Cordial, strengthen
ing, nourishing, curative. It cures in
digestion and renews strength and health
It does this by strengthening the stom

It nourishes yoti. Shaker Digestive
Cordial is made of pure herbs, plants
and wine, is perfectly harmless and will

FIRST DEATH IN COMPANY H.
Chaplain Tilly Writes a Tribute to the
Memory of Lank Barrett.
Tampa, Fla., July 19.—Com
pany H, of Second Georgia In
fantry, is in deep sorrow tonight.
We have just learned of the death
of Lank Barrett, loved by all who
knew him, a faithful soldier and a
Christian gentleman. During the
two months of his stay in camp no
one ever found aught in him of
word or deed but would be ap
proved by the best of men.
Mr. Barrett was an unpreten
tious man, quiet and simple in
manner, but direct in purpose and
unyielding in principle.
He possessed some of the finest
traits of character that are found
in men. He was ever thoughtful
of the rights of others, appreciated
all that was done for him and was
courteous toward every one.
I11 the late meetings in the camp
he was quite firm in a public stand
for Christ and Christian principles.
His devotion to his mother was
child-like and constant, and the
honest smile that played upon his
face at the mention of her name
showed the beauty of a warm love.
Lank Barrett was not an ordi-

nary man. There are, perhaps,
no deeds for record in history, but
there was a character that made
its impress on others. The prin
ciples he lived will be taken up,
and thus he lives again in the
hearts of his fellows.
Mr. Barrett’s sickness “was brief.
He was quite unwell for a few
days, during which he was much
reduced. His mother came when
notified that the case had develop
ed into typhoid fever. She nursed
him as none but a good mother can
do. He was removed to Atlanta
on the hospital train. Only a few
days later we had the news of his
death.
May God sustain the grief
stricken relatives in their time of
A. A. Tilly.
sorrow.
Tampa, Fla., July 20.—“L. T.
Barrett, a private in Company H,
Second Georgia Volunteer Infan
try, died at McPherson barracks
today, July 18th, at 12:30 o’clock
of typhoid fever.” No one can
tell the crushing weight of sadness
that subdued every member of our
company when this message came
to us yesterday. God had given
comfort and absolution to this bril
liant boy’s soul at the Y. M. C. A.
meetings in gamp and prepared
him for the final note of the bugle
that would call him to His eternal
encampment on the plains of
heavenly peace, where all swoids
are sheathed and arms stacked by
order of our Ruler over all. Three
months’ intimate association en
deared him to the boys, and when
he reported sick one morning
about a month ago, we thought
little of it, as boys in the army
are indisposed one day and well
the next, just as at home. But
every morning he answered the
hospital call and went up to get
medicine, gradually growing thin
ner and more pallid. His brown
uniform fitted him loosely and he
crawled from one tent to another
taking little interest in the con
versations, but loving the com
panionship of friends. One da}',
about a week after the decline set
in, he was unable to leave his tent
and he was carried to the hospital
about fifty yards away on a litter.
He was there a day or two, but
did not improve, and was moved
to the division hospital where he
could have better attention, but
the parched lips and glassy eyes
seemed to grow more pronounced
at every visit. He was a mere
boy in years and appearance, yet
he talked so sweetly of the light
of heaven that had shown in on
his heart while Mr. Tilly and other
evangelists were preaching to us
in the evening open air services.
When his case assumed the
alarming stage, it was decided to
send him to Atlanta, as he would
receive the best of facilities and
attention to recuperate. On that
afternoon we went over to say
good-bye. His face was drawn,
his tongue parched and swollen,
and when we looked in his face
for the jolly “Lank” Barrett, we
could only see his tired spirit
wrestling to free itself from the
earth earthy and preparing to put
on the body celestial.
We pray that the mother of this
noble soldier boy may see in his
election to God’s service the beauty
of a Christian’s aeath, and realize
what a privilege she has been
granted to her country’s service,
and then have God to see in him
the true worthiness of heaven’s
elect and call him home. The
savor of her noble sacrifice on the
altar of our country was wafted
to God, and seeing that “it was
very good,” He chose it for His
kingdom.
He was the first of the Second j
Georgia volunteers to succumb,;
and a more worthy or prepared
boy could not have been found in
the regiment. He lived the life
of a true, obedient soldier, van
quished by disease after a short
engagement, but his bivouac will
be under the glorious emblem of
our native land, and when taps
sound over the bodies of his com
rades of Company H, our spirits
will leave the mortal clay, wrapped
in the silken folds of the stars and
stripes and join him in his beauti
ful heavenly home. God grant it.

BE TRUE TO ME, AS I TO THEE.
Be true, ah, twin soul of my soul, be
true!
Be true to me, as I must be to thee,
So that I, tossing on the storm-swept
sea,
Still one sure star may view.
Be true, dear heart, for mine is bruised
and sore,
Weary of all, save only thy sweet love;
Only to thee my bitter longings move
Ever, and evermore.
Would I might lean my head against thy
breast,
Even as a child, sore-vexed with thorny
ways,
With aching feet, turns, sobbing, to its
rest,'
And there, contented, stays.
That may not be, but be thou true to
me;
So may I still my hopeless fancy please;
My empty arms outstretched aye to thee
In visions such as these.
Ah, sweetheart mine! our dead past
liveth yet—
Blossoms afresh, more bravely than of
old;
Yet must I plead (for great dread
maketh bold),
Never do thou us forget.
