Another great discovery has been made, and that too, by a lady in this country. “Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for seven years she with stood its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent.

OA.STORIA. Bean the Kintl Yod Haw Alwa I s Bought An Anecdote of Lincoln. At one period during the civil war . there were no less than seventy-four major generals and 276 brigadiers on the rolls, which was far more than there was any use far, says the Kansas City Journal. President Lincoln rec ognized this mistake before anybody else, but be consoled himself by joking about it. 1 It is recalled that on one occasion, ’ when one of these superfluous generals was capturld by the enemy, with a number -of men and horses, somebody undertook to condole with the presi dent on the subject, remarking that the loss of the captured general’s ser vice was a great misfortune to the government. “Pooh!” replied Lincoln, “it’s the horses I’m thinking about. I can make another brigadier general in two min* utea, but horses are scarce and coat S2OO apiece.” CA.STORIA. Bean th* You * lwa f s Bought Election* Is Elections in Guatemala are decided, it appears, by majorities so torero ~ der unnecessary any subsequent electoral contest. In order to dispose of contests more expeditiously there are now in Wash ington three committees oh elections in the house of representatives. But one com mittee probably would suffice in Guate mala, where, at the last election for presi dent of the republic, the vote east was in the proportion of 700 for one candidate to 1 for the other. The term of the president of Guatemala is nominally six years, and he is not eligible for a second term, but when Guatemala gets a good president it is the custom to prolong his term, and a term thus prolonged is indefinite and ends usually when the president dies Geaeral Denver. “Denver is so young,” says a corre spondent of the Boston Transcript, “that General Denver, for whom it is named, is still living and visited the city a few years ago. This is a rare honor. Washington never saw the which he knew would bear his name. Lieutenant Du luth, the intrepid French officer of the lake region, had been in his grave 200 years before the city that perpetuates his fame was founded. It has been General Denver’s good fortune to live to see his namesake possess a population of 170,000 and rank high amvng the thriving towns of the west.” Mr. H. A. Pass, Bowman, Ga., writes “One of my children was very delicate and we despaired of raising it. For months my wife and I could hardly get a night’s rest until we began the use of Pitts’ Car minative. We found great relief from the first bottle.” Pitts’ Carminative acts promptly and cures permanently. It is pleasant to the taste, and children take it without coaxing. It is free from injurious drugs and chemicals. TUESDAY, OCT. 25th. AL. G. FIELD and His Greater Minstrels With 50 people and Special Palace car. Don’t Miss the Parade Tuesday at Noon.
