Eclectic college, of the city of New York, and
formerly of Cincinnati, Ohio, used DR.. VIM.
Halls Balsam very extensively in his practice,
as many of his patients, now living and re-
stored to health by the use of this invaluable
medicine, can amply testify. He always said

ILLUSTRATED.
As details of the Rathbone wife murder are
received they add to its horror Colonel
Rathbone, the murderer, was with President
Lincoln when Booth shot him, and was him
self stabbed by the assassin. The event was
followed by nervous -prostration, which
caused, says Senator Harris, of Albnny,
painful dyspepsia which growing constantly
worse IN the last ten years finally produced
blues and periodical brain disorders
Dyspepsia made this man a monsterl
Experts tell us that the brain is the sound
est of all organs, and they credit the alarming
increase OF insanity to arrangements of the
stomach. What the stomach is the blood will
be, and bad blood has an especially evil eff
feet upon the brain. Dyspepsia is a dangerous
disorder, and yet it is far too often neglected
when it might be checked or cured. II. S.
Benedict, for thirty-ive years express agent
up in Troy, has often related how for long
time his life was an unbearable burden
He says he would rather die than go
through his old dyspepic experiences. And
John Elting, the widely-known Odd Fellow
Of Hudson, informs us that what began in
sour stomach, heartburn, lumpy sensations
and occasional constipation, resulted in con-
hrmed dyspepsia, intense heat and distress in
the stomach, belching of wind, hard and
bloated bowels, loss of appetite, constant con-
stipation, sick headache, and a despondent,
irritable condition of mind
These gentlemen can realize, as can thous-
ands of others, TO what violence confirmed
dyspepsia may drive mani Happily for
them they escaped mental frenzy by the
timely use of Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy, of Rondout, N. Y, pure vegeta-
bic, non-a(coholio preparation which in the
past twenty years has cured in 80 per cent
of cases. 1t has a very large sale and is re-
garded by physicians as most valuable for
stomach, malarial, liver, kidney, urinary, fe-
male, and blood disorders
If we would escape the full penalties OF dys-
pepsia, we must arrest it before it becomes
chronic and sets the blood and brain ON hra

If any one is still under the delusion that
the sons and daughters Of our veterans are
ali grown mp let him turn to the column
of children's Letters which we print on our
second page this week. What delightful
glimpse they afford of the soldiers family
circle, How sad, too. sometimes. are their
revelationsl And then the questions they
ask-what "A bump of inquisitiyeness they
have, and yet how eager they are to confde
all their secrets TO The TRIBUNE! No one
can read their artless letters without feeling
that in these young correspondents there is
the making of good women and brave men
How intensely patriotic they are. They
are SO proud Of the fact that father served
in the army, and they know in just what

and where he was taken prisoner. The wal

ING the contract When this contract was
entered into it WAS not stipulated that the
Governments records should be the sole
evidence of his right to pension had such
been the understanding it is safe to say that
the men who, rather than incur the reproach
of being Hospital bummers,n despite their
sufferings from disease, remained at their
posts and did their duty, would not thus
have jeopardized their claim to the care and
support which the Government had so
eagerly promised them. Nor is it true, as
Mr.. Mack alleges, that this parole evidence
the testimony of comrades to events in re-
gard to which the official records are silent
is nolonger worthy of credence. Frail though
the memory of our exsoldiers as to other
matters may be, it is still keen and retentive
as to everything that pertains to the strug-
gle in which they risked their lives. If any
mistake has been committed in the adjudi-
cation of pension claims by the Pension
Office in the past, it has consisted in the
failure TO estimate this evidence at its prop
er value, and in cases where the Government
records afforded neither confederation nor
refutation, in refusing to give the soldier
the benefit of the doubt
But even if it were true-if so many years
had elapsed since the war that the COM
rades upon whose testimony applicants
relied for the establishment of their claims
could no longer remember the events of the
war with sufficient distinctness to make
oath to them-what every truly patriotic
man would demand, would be- we are sure,
that this great and prosperous Government,
instead of taking advantage of the helpless
ness of our veterans, should waive its right
to this evidence and voluntarily pension
every soldier who was at the time actually
disabled! That is what must and will be
done at no distant day. and then how small
and cheap viii appear that policy which, al
a time when nearly three hundred thousand
pension claims are awaiting action, would
make it still more difficult for our enfeebled
and impoverished comrades to obtain tbs
meager pittance that is due them! We shall
have something further to say about this re

influx of heterogeneous elements from the

of politics, and the changing conditions of
labor may yet precipitate some new and
now unexpected crisis in the life of the
Nation, but SO long as there exists in this
country that element of unquestioning 10y

since the Revolution has come to the front
when occasion demanded, none need despair
of the Republic. The lad who from his
