Ohrcnls Dyspepsia Cored.
<7^ FTER suffering for nearly thirty years
from dyspepsia, Mrs. H. E. Dugdale,
‘® wife of a prominent business man of
Warsaw, N. Y.. writes: “For 28 years. I was
a constant sufferer from dyspepsia and a
weak stomach. The lightest food produced
distress, causing severe pain and the forma
tion of gas. No matter how careful of my
diet I suffered agonizing pain after eating. ;
I was treated by many physicians and tried
numerous remedies without permanent help.
Two years ago I began taking Dr. Miles*
Nerve and Liver Pills and Nervine. Within
a week I commenced improving, and per
sisting in the treatment I was soon able to
eat what I liked, with no evil effects'
I keep them at hand and a sin gle dose dispels
any old symptoms.**

Duties of Family Men.
Of course no true man desires to
shirk from duty to his country,
and no worthy citizen of this Re-
public will hesitate to respond
when called upon, no matter
whether he at heart favors a war
with Spain or not.
But there are individual duties to
be considered also and some stress
has been laid upon these by Major
General Roe, of the New York
National Guard who in an interes
ting and timely talk about the
probable call on the state militia.
The call for the militia will pre
cede the general call for volunteers.
That is to say, the companies
already organized will be first or
dered out, but even this will be in
a way a call for voluuteers, says
General Roe, for he thinks ar
rangements will be made by which
regiments, w r ill go as regiments,
but by which men who do feel like
going with the regiment, may sta} 7
at home to form the nucleus
of a home guard without losing
rank or caste as soldiers.
On this the New York Com
mander speaks quite plainly and
sensibly as follows:
“There are many cases in the
National Guard of men who have
families dependent upon them for
support, who cannot leave for a
campaign outside the states unless
they are absolutely needed.
These men owe it to their families
who wait until their services in
the field are absolutely needed,
and arrangements will be made, I
have no doubt, so that these men
will not have to go with their reg
iments, and so that they may not
be considered any the less good
soldiers. They will still keep up
their regimental standing, or at
least, some plan will be devised by
which they will be held ready to
do home service, perhaps detailed
to the mustering in and drilling
volunteers.”—Macon News.
Dear mother, don’t let your baby
suffer and erv with colic when a few
drops of Dr. Tichenor's Antiseptic, di
luted aud sweetened will give almost
instant relief. Non-poisonous and
therefore harmless. Tastes like pep-
perment candy and baby will take it
without a ‘‘kick.” A silver half dollar
will get a bottle from your druggist.
Hiram Maxim’s Opinion.
Cable dispatches from London,
dated April 15, say that Hiram
Maxim, the inventor of rapid-fire
guns, thinks the expected war be
tween the United States and Spain
will be terribly one-sided, and that
the result is a foregone conclusion.
He 3ays: “Any superiority which
the Spaniards have in the number
of ships is overwhelmingly coun
terbalanced by the great strength,
equipment and speed of the Amer
ican warships. Spain has no re
sources in the way of production
of steel or the building of ships
while America’s resources are
thoroughly adequate.”
It preserves the flesh when lacerated
or wounded in any way. Stops the
bleeding, stops the pain and heals
quicker than anything. That is what
Dr. Tichenor’s Antiseptic does. Try it
when you get hurt
for it.

AUncertain Disease.
There is no disease more uncertain in its
nature than dyspepsia. Physicians say that
the symptoms of no two cases agree. It is
therefore most difficult to make a correct
diagnosis. iSo matter how severe, or under
vv hat disguise dyspepsia attacks you. Browns’
Iron Bitters will cure it. Invaluable in all
diseases of the stomach, blood and nerves.

The life o. .oldier of
the United Stales is not all roses,
neither is it one of the great hard-
, ship, says the Birmingham News,
which paper gives some interesting
information about the army pri
vate.
While a man is required to re
linquish many of his personal lib
erties, he is at the same time pro
vided w r ith much he pays dearly
for as a private citizen. The pay
ranges from $18 a month to $23,
the latter being the highest com
pensation of a non-commissioned
officer. Besides this each man re
ceives medical attention, med
icines, clothing, bedding, etc.
In tbe enlistment of soldiers
come the most interesting and
many times the most surprising
features of the whole business.
An impression prevails with many
that it is an easy thing to get into
the army of the United States.
But such is not by any means the
case. On the contrary, only about
ten per cent of those who apply
are accepted, and in the non-ac
ceptance there is certainly no re
flection on the patriotism of the
American man, the trouble
being with the physical make up
of a large percentage of the men
of the country. Only about one
in ten of those who apply for en
listment can pass the gauntlet of
physical and moral requirements
of the recruiting department.
The following are the lines that
recruits are compelled to come
inside of so as to become defenders
of the nation is the regular army,
according to regulations.
Applicants for enlistment must
be between the ages of 21 and 30
years, unmarried, of good charac
ter and habits, able-bodied, free
from disease, and must be able to
speak and write the English lan
guage.
Minors are not enlisted, except
boys between the ages of 16 to 18,
who may be needed as musicians,
and who have the written consent
of father, only surviving parent or
legally appointed guardian.
Original enlistments are con
fined to persons who are citizens j
of the United States, or who may
have made legal declarationof their
intention to become citizens there-

As a positive cure for sprains,bruises,

has no equal. Mrs. Frank Juif, 518
Gratiot Ave., Detroit, Mich., writes :
“I used Salvation Oil in my family
and can say it has no rival as a lini
ment; it certainly cures pains. I
sprained my ankle and it cured me
and since then I have always used it
for any pains and bruises.” Salvation
Oil is sold for only 25 cents. No other
remedy will do the work as promptly.

The greatest triumph of modern
chemistry is Dr. Tichenor’s Antiseptic.
As a dressing for wounds, burns, etc.,
it simply has no equal. Prevents in
flammation, preserves the flesh and
heals like magic. Fragrant as the “last
rose of summer” and cooling as a breeze
from off the deep blue sea.
