TL t- • ■t'V :i $r- 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.** Dr. Miles’ Remedies | are sold by all drug gists under a positive guarantee, first bottle benefits or money re funded.

In the Baltic sea there are more wrecks than in any other place in the world. The average through out the year is one each day. 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.

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.

TL 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- n oi.

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.
