An ExampIe for All

ST. Louis, on decoration, set the rest of
the country an illustrious example of mag
nanimity by uniting its population, and
decorating the graves of both federal and
confederates. The gallant remnant Of
Mulligan's braves, in this city, also showed
their appreciation of gallant foe, by salut-
ing the grave of dead confederate captain
and by dropping flowers upon the sod
which covered him. This graceful recog-
milton of dead soldier, although that of a
former enemy. shows that these men have
neither malignancy or Office seeking in
their hearts.
1t is to be hoped that the time is not dis
tant when the example of St Louis and of
Mulligans men will be initiated by the
whole north and south 1t is over their
graves that maternity should be increased
and its cohesion strengthened 1t is not
the place where the tocsin of war should
be annually sounded. These graves are
not embers where the torches of sectional
hate should yearly be relighted On the
contrary they are affairs to which should
come old enemies, and lay thereon peace
offerings, and swear to never more be again
divided in their love of country, or in their
efforts to promote the common weal.-Chi-

EUPEPsIA-The only reliable treatment
for dyspepsia, (which includes indigestion
in all its forms, is the use of a good tonic
stimulant. Such is DR.. Gottheb Fisch' s
Bitters. This preparation ought always
to be taken along with food. So taken,
its use is never. followed by reaction. On
the contrary, the invigorating influence
which it exerts over the nervous system,
is decidedly beneficial In dyspepsia, it is
chiefly upon the Sympathetic Nerves that
the stimulating qualities Of the Bitters are
brought to bear Those Nerves regulate
the functions Of the digestive system. The
flow of the gastric juice, and OF the Other
Authoritative fluids is thus increased and
in like proportion is increased the amount
of blood which is thrown into the genera
circulation. In this manner, dyspepsia is
permanently remedied, and the system al
large is invigorated and built up-the Bit

Seriously Hurt.

Mr.. J. P. May was seriously hgrt by
a fall last Monday. He was passing
under trestle in front of the new Bank
building placed there to protect the
pavement just being made, when horse
that was hitched to the trestle became
frightened and jerked it down, throw
ing Mr.. May with his back across the
curbing and striking his head against
the frozen ground, the trestle falling
across his breast. He was rendered in
sensible for a time. In few minutes
after he recovered consciousness he re-
ceived dispatch stating that his wife
was seriously i'll in SOmerville, West
Tenn, and he left on the next train. In
the short time between the accident and
his departure it could not be ascertained
whether his injuries were serious or not.
