lated and reinforced by a course OF Hos

ton aud a regular habit of the body are
the best safeguards against such mala-
die, and both are secured by this inesti-
II bic tonic and alternative. The BIZ
tiers are so extremely serviceable in rene
dying such disorders. Ii promptly taken

m0rbns, the disease is usually frustrated.
In diarrhoea cases, it is only necessary to
restore the tone OF the relaxed bowels,

dy. A a family medicine it is invalua-

Casters Field Glass.
New York Herald.

About eighteen months ago, while
Senator Christiancy, of Michigan, was
in the south investigating the election
frauds, he paid visit to Gen. Wade
Hampton, and the conversation drifted
into war "reminiscences. Among other
military persOnages, Gen. Hampton
spoke of Gen. Custer, and expressed
his appreciation of the dead hero in the
highest terms. Senator Christiancy re-
piled that he was well acquainted with
all of Gen. Clusters family, having
known him from childhood Then Gen.
Hampton remarked that, during the
war, some of the soldiers of his COM
mand at the battle of Brandywine, had
captured a field-glass belonging to Gen.
Custer and given it to him, and he
(Gen. Hampton had used it during the
last two years of the conflict. Senator
Christiancy was asked if he thought
Mrs. Custer would like to have the glass.
The Senator said eyes," and at once
wrote to Mrs. Custer about the matter.
She sent a letter to Gen. Hampton, say
ing she would doubly appreciate the
relic because it had been the property
of two brave men, and she added that
her husband had been an admirer of
Gen. Hampton. The latter sent word
that as soon as he could get the glass
brought down from his mountain home
he would forward it, and the historic
glass is now on its way to Monroe,
Michigan, the home 81 Mrs. Custer,
where she has a large collection of war
souvenirs arranged in a cabinet.
