lowed Gen. Lee’s life from the time
he as a boy, assumed the responsi
bility of caring for his mother and
brothers and sisters. He spoke of
the gentleness of his nature, his
faithfulness to duty, his record as a
cadet and student at West Point, his
relations as husband and father, his
sympathetic attitude to his soldiers,
his religious tolerance, his faith in
a Supreme Being, the humorous side
of his nature, his loyalty to his na

lessons he taught thoee under him
when he was President of the Wash

Col. Sibley drew many useful les
sons from the life of Lee and ended
his address with, "Although Gen
Lee was dead yet he still speaketh.’’
Col. Sibley held the closest atten
tion of his audince as. his address
was unique and original in its eon-
ceptoin, and was delivered with ease

Soak the seed for ten minutes and

I would get nauseated. I would

“I would take pill* until I was
