ORIGIN OF Two EXPRESSIONS or igin of the terms "Uncle Sam" applied to our government, and "Brother Jonathan, :" applied in the first instance to the people of New England, and sometimes to the people of the whole country, or, rather, to the representative American, often pro- vokes a puzzle. The question how the terms arose is often asked:
 After Washington was appointed con- mander of the patriot army in the revolu- tion, he had great difficulty in obtaining supplies. On one occasion, when no way could be devised by him and his officers to supply the wants of the army, Washing ton wound up the conference with the re- mark, "We must consult Brother Jona- than" He referred to Jonathan Trum- bull, then governor of Connecticut, in whose judgment he had confidence. Gov ernor Trumbul helped the general out of his difficulties, and afterward the expres- sion used by Washington became popu- ular byword in the army, and eventually a nick k-name for the nation.
 The name Uncle Sam, as applied to the United States is said to have originated il the war of 1872. An inspector of army provisions at Troy, named Samuel Wilson was called by his workmen "Uncle Sam. One day somebody asked one of the work men what the letters "U. S. meant. The workman replied that he supposed it must mean Uncle Sam. The joke was afterward spread in the army, and this, according tc the historian Frost, was the origin of the national sobriquet.

 Turning so as to look your representative squarey in the face, the head of the house of Soren Mathison $ Co.,. Pharmacists, No. 1902 State street, Marble Block, Chicago, replied: ssYes sir, with pleasure My remark was that we consider Parker's Ginger Tonic now called Parker's Tonic the best article ot its kind in the market.

Its bound to sweep the west like prairie on ire In cases of rheumatism, dyspepsia and liver and kidney troubles scores successes and wins friends every day."
 Hiscox & Co., beg to call public attention to the fact that hereafter Parkers Ginger Tonic will be ad- vertised and sold simply under the name of Parkers Tonic We make this change for the reason that un- princped dealers are constantly dcceiving our cus- toners by substituting inferior preparations under the name of ginger and as ginger s really an unim- portant favoring ingredient, drop the misleading word. 345 fs4

Shouting the battle cry of freedom. The refrain was caught up instantly by the entire regiment and by the Thirty six Massachusetts, next in 1ine There the grim ranks stood at bay in the deadly thlcket. The air was filled with the crackle and smeke of the burning underbrush, the pltlful cries of the wounded, the rattle of musketry and the shouts of command :; but above all, answering the exslltant yells of the enemy, rose the inspiring chorus The Union forever, hurrah, boys, hurrah Down with the traitor and up with the star

 One of the army songs, which has be- come popular ill England as it is in this country, is published as having been writ ten and composed by Louis Lambert. This is nom de plume for P. s. Gilmore. To be sure, the words do not amount to much, and there is something disagreea- ble to a well-regu,ated temperance mind like our own in being obliged to melodi- ously inform the public that
 ''We'll all drink stone blind,
 When Johnny comes marching home." But the tune is of that rollicking, devil may y-care order that is very catching. The fact is, Gilmore built up his words to suit his air. on the same principle that in Vir- ginia they build the chimney first and then erect the house against it. The air was an inspiration, but the words might be classified as rhymes without reason.
