designed to represent The Lost Pleiad. The story
belongs heather mythology. We are told that
the Pleiades were the seven daughters Of Atlas
who, h wing fed from the pursuit Of Jupiter, or,
as some say, Of Orion, were changed into doves,
and aft rwsrds translated TO the heavens stars,
forming the well known group in the cOnst la

in his time, notices the fact. Inc design Of the

Candid Admissions.

The New York EreniHg Post, staunch Repub.

erals in the war who did the most fighting are
opposed - the continuance OF military govern

who did little duty, and who were Of no particul :
use any here, are toe ones who think the South
should still be governed by bayonets instead Of by
law.
But the Post goes further and with an honesty
and candor which does il credit, tells the truth
about Il the movements to perpetusie milit ny
rule over the Southern States. We call attention
to its excellent remarks:

The New York Tribune says, "the reason why

and have such an immense sale, is that they are
always made up to the original standard, Of
highly invigorating material and of pure quality,

etc.
The Tribune just hits the nail on the head -
The Plantation Bitters are not only made of pure
mate ial bnt the people are told what 1t is. The
Recipe is published around each bottle, and the
bottles are not reduced in size. At least twenty

to have the negroes count in the basis o: repre-
