BY THOMAS HOOD.
Love thy mother, little one!
KS and clasp her neck again.
Hereafter she may have son
Will kiss and clasp her neck in vain.
Love thy mother, little one!
Gaze upon her loving eyes,
And mirror back her love for thee;
Hereafter thnu mayst shuddrr signs
L" meet them when they cannot see.
Gaze upon her loving eyes
Press her lips the while they glow
With love that they have often told
Hereafter thou NAV 81 press i'll woe
And kiss them till thine own arr. cold
Press her lips the while they glow
oh, revere her raven hair
Although it be not silvrr-gray-
Too early death led on by care
MAY snatch save one dear lock away.
oh. revere her raven hair
Pray for hcI al eve and morn.
Thai heaven may long the stroke defer
For thou mayst live the hnur fnrlurn
When thou wilt ask To- die with her.

THE CoUsHATTA MASSACRE.

In August last several NortherIl
young men of capital and enterprise
had started the little aud tiourishing
town of Coushatta. Some of them were
Republican and otficeholdcrs under Kcl-
logg. They were, therefore, doomed
to death. Six of them were seized and
carried away from their homes and mur-
dered i'll cold blood. No one has been
punished, and the conservative press OF
the State denounced all efforts to that
end and boldly justified the crime.

This is an expression that we hear from
doctors when they are in doubt about
the nature of the disease of their patients
The country seems to be filed with such
cases, and they are trying first one remedy
and then another, hoping in vain to find
relief. They generally have the following
symptoms: A general depression of spirits,
with evil forebodings, a whirling sensation
in the head when rising up suddenly, foul
breath, with a bad taste in the mouth,
especially in the morning, pain in the sides
and back, urine scanty and high colored,
frequently voided with difficulty, frequent
headaches, a distressed feeling at the pit OF
the stomach, food atfording no nourishment.
The patient feels tired All the while, and
sleep affords but little rest After a time
dry, hacking cough sets in, followed after
time with eXpectoration, hands and feet cold
and clammy at times, general wasting OF
the body. In such cases we need remedy
that will act upon the liver Kidneys, stomach
and blood at the same time, and when we
use such a remedy it affords relief. The
best article for this purpose is the SHAKER

Pension Report.

The Commissioner of Pensions has fin
ished his annual report, which shows that
there are on the pension rolls 234, 1921 pen
sioners, decrease Of 400 from last year
They are classified as follows: Army in
valids, 105, AS; widows and dependent
relatives, 104 1856; survivors of the war of
1912, $3.50; widows of soldiers of 1872
5,163; navy invalids, 1886; widows and
dependent relatives of navy officers and
seamen, 1874. More than II per cent of
the soldiers of 1912 died last year The
amount appropriated for army pensions
was $29, 600, of which S1l, 74S, 533
were paid to invalid soldiers and for arti-
| fetal limbs; Sl5,525, 734 to widows and
| dependent relatives; 1888 900 to widows
of soldiers of 1912, and 1885, 500 to sol
| diers of 1912, leaving an unexpended bal
ance of S337, 23l, which has been covered
into the Treasury.
The appropriation for navy pensions
was 1855, 900, ofwhich all but $34, 651 was
expended. Commissioner Atkinson esti-
| mates that reduction of $500 900 can
be safely made on the appropriation for
| next year. There are now pending nearly
| 10000 claims Enacted upon, mostly on
account of lack OF clerical assistance,
applicants. The Commissioner recon-
mends additions to the clerical force.
Legislation is asked to define sufficient
proof OF marriage of pensioners widows,
so as to make evidence of Cohabitation
sufficient to drop pensioners from the
rolls. Large numbers of pensioned wild
ows are known 10 be living with
men whom the department cannot prove
II, h,, II bnl ~
| authority exists to drop their names.
During last year 6,5 applications for
| bounty land were made, and 407 war
rants were issued, calling for 81, 500 acres
of land.
The COMMISSIONS recommends the
adjustment of the present system of ex-
aiming surgeons and the appointment
of sixty frs, class surgeons, at fixed Sala-
rieS, who will give their entire time to the
service. He thinks this a measure of econ
omy and one which will facilitate the
payment of pensioners. Fifteen hundred
and thirty claims were investigated by
special agents, of which 500 were found
to be fraudulent Two hundred and forty
three pensioners were dropped on evil
dence of fraud, resulting in saving nearly
$4,000 Over $4,000 were recovered
from those who had been draw
ing pensions fraudulently, The Com
missioner thinks the knowledge that
an efficient Secret Service exists pre-
vents a large amount of fraudulent claims

ice on the plan now in operation in the
