Bidicules the Recent Spnnish-
Amerlctm War.
The exercises of dedicating the 107
monuments and markers of the state
of Illinois on tho battlefields sur
rounding the city of Chattanooga were
held Thursday at Orchard Knob, the
f ite of one of the principal memorial
shafts and famous during the civil
war 'as the headquarters of General
Grant.
Among the visitors were Senator
Cnllom, Governor Tanner and staff,
Commissioner of Pensions H. Clay
Evans. General H. V. Boynton, rep
resenting the secretary of war, ancf a
large delegation from the confederate
camp of Chattanooga.
Major Charles A.Connelly delivered
the speech presenting the monuments
to the governor of Illinois on behalf
of the Illinois commissioners.
Governor John B. Tanner, of Illi
nois, received the monuments and in
turn presented them to the govern
ment.
General H. Y. Boynton, chairman
of the national park commission, in
receiving the monuments, said in part:
“The citizens of any state, or of any
nation, might well be proud to stand
on this historic spot, with the right to
stand here as the military associate of
General Grant, participants with him
each in his appointed rank in that
miracle of military history, the storm
ing of Missionary Ridge. First, to
ward this point, and then from this
point he derected that series or mem
orable battles which have given Chat
tanooga a world-wide fame.
“What of the soldiers w r ho won the
battles which these monuments com
memorate and the great captains who
commanded them? Did General Grant
spend his time about the commissary
stores in the capacity of a pure food
commissioner? Did he send his staff
officers throughout the limits of his
command to gather evidence to prove
that the war department did not know
more than a thing or two about war?
Did he fill the pres3 of the land with
interviews criticising everything cud
everybody but himself? When he tel
egraphed General Thomas from Louis
ville to hold Chattanooga, did Thomas
reply, ‘We are out of the proper brand
of meat, and it can’t be done,’ or did
he reply, ‘We will hold the town till
we starve?’ Did General Thomas and
his general officers send a round robin
to Washington concerning the condi
tion of their stomachs, their temper-
R- U re and their pulse, and promptly
furnish a copy of it to the press?
And what of the soldiers who serv
ed under General Thomas? They
v'ent about the streets of Chattanooga
and the horse and mule corrals, pick
up kernels and scattered corn,
hey gathered about the refuse heaps
® commissary stores where moldy
bread was thrown, whittled off the
'y and, and filled their haversacks with
j‘ e crumbs; and when interrupted by
" play of the seige guns, they would

Making as Impression.
“I was much amused one day about
a year ago, when I was on my way to
Washington,” remarked a Detroiter
not long since. “I had finished a good
meal in the dining car and was enjoy
ing myself in the smoker. Pretty soon
two young fellows came in who ap
peared to me to be college undergradu
ates returning to their alma mater.
They began to talk of a visit they had
paid to Washington during the Christ
mas holidays a year before, and were
recalling incidents and episodes of the
trip. They mentioned the name of a
Congressman from a Western State
and told of the good time they had
had at his house. One of them was in
especially good spirits when speaking
of the Congressman's daughter.
“ ‘You know, I had a groat time with
her,’ he said, ‘and flatter myself that
I made quite au impression. I guess
she hadn’t seen much of society, for
1 just waded in and took her off her
feet. I didn’t do a thing but take her
to half-a-dozen “functions” and I guess
I made her think she was the only
gii’l there was.’ He said a good deal
more in the same strain, all of which
I couldn’t help hearing. The reason it
interested me was this. I knew the
Congressman and knew his daughter
quite well. She was about 30 years
old, almost ten years the senior of the
j'oung fellow Who had ‘taken her' off
her feet.’ She had spent four years in
New’ York society, two years in Lon
don, where she was a favorite, two
years in Chicago, and had been for
four years one of the most popular
youug ladies in Washington social cir
cles. I rather imagine that there were
two playing at the game of making the
other think of being the ‘only one there
w r as.’ ’’—Detroit Free Press.
A Weed Carden.
It is remarkable how many really
beautiful flowers are discarded be
cause ordinarily they are classed as
weeds. A woman who had plenty of
land and a taste for experimenting
made a “weed garden” this year which
is a great success. She doesn’t know’
the names of all the outcasts she has
gathered in, but she noticed last year
all the wild things that grew and flow
ered neglected by the wayside, and
transplanted those that appealed to
her most strongly.
“The main reason,” she urges, “that
they attract so little notice when grow
ing wild is that they are not mass.ed
and arranged as we place cultivated
flowers to get the best effect. Now,
that is what I have done. A wild
flower, or a weed, as It is scornfully
termed, that is too fragile tb bo
thought much of will make a delicate,
feathery mass which will be vastly
admired when planted together by the
score or more.”
Even such a despised thing as the
common ragweed is worthy of admira
tion if you happen to look at it aright,
and it is finely effective as foliage for
cut flowers.
This weed gardener has provided for
a succession of blossoms from violets
and dandelions to golden rod and late
fall grasses, and nothing has repaid
the gardener’s efforts with better re
sults than these absolutely free flow
ers.—Boston Herald.

Sick Women Advised to Seek
Advice of Mrs. Pinkham.
[LETTER TO MRS. HNKHAU MO. 94,80,3]
“I had inflammation and fulling
of the womb, and inflammation of
ovaries, and was in great pain. 1 took
medicine prescribed by a physician,
but it did mo no good. At last I heard
of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound, and after using it faithfully I
am thankful to say I am a well women.
I would advise all suffering women to
seek advice of Mrs. Pinkham.” —Mas.
G. H. CuapPell, Grant Faux, 111.
“ For several years my health was
miserable. I suffered tho most dread
ful pains, and was almost on the verge
of insanity. I consulted or.p of the
best physicians in New York, and he
pronounced my disease a fibroid tumor,
advising an operation without delay,
saying that it was my only chance for
life. Other doctors prescribed strong
and violent medicine, and one said I
was incurable, another told me my
only salvation was galvanic batteries,
which I tried, but nothing relieved me.
One day a friend called and begged me
to try Lydia E. Pinkliam's Vegetable
Compound. I began ita use and took
several bottles. From the very first
bottle there was a wonderful change
for the better. The tumor has disap
peared entirely and my old spirits have
returned. 1 heartily recommend your
medicine to all suffering women.”—
