ing his Office in his shirt sleeves. -
President Cleveland means business
and does an honest days work and no
fooling about it either. When he gets
through with his work he dresses HIM
self with scrupulous care so that the
"society" of Washington can find
nothing to offend them in his ATTIRE
The Democratic President is in the
Executive Mansion on business not for
pleasure or show. These same men
cry out about, and laugh at the tinsel
show of monarchies, but when the
people of this country are represented
in true democratic simplicity of style
then they complain also. Truly they
arc hard to be pleased.

advised her, as the only alternative from
death, toihaye the leg sinputated below
the knee. She was troubled with an
intolerable itching sensation, which only
gave way 10 distracting pain, which
made death her daily wish. She could
not sleep or rest. On March, II, this
year, she commenced using DR.. Hart
mans PERuNA, and to-day the leg Is
entirely healed, and the thankful old lady
says she has slept more during the last
three months than she did In the previous
3forty.three years.
Miss Alice Brady, of East st. Louis,
Illinois, suffered from catarrh ophthalmia
for FIVE years. On April ~ she began
treatment under DR.. Hartman. For
year beforeNshe was patient of two Of
the best known oculiSts Of this city, but
they signally failed to help her. After
one month under DR.. Hartman and his
PRRusA, her eyes have almost entirely
healed, and, according TO her own state.
ment, he has done more for her in this
short space Of time than the oculists did
in the previous whole year. PERuNA,
ofcourse, did II.

AylSctDEsr AT cnAurAuouA.

An old soldier, or the widow or mother
OF one, could command Grants attention
when much more notable people were
neglected. In the summer Of 1875 he
went to the great assembly at Chautanqua
Lake, and while there it fell to the duty Of
Rev. DR.. George A. Peltz, Of this city, TO
act az escort to the distinguished visitor.
DR.. Pelts says that on enc day there were
fully 10000 people on the grounds to see
Grant. After the services on Sunday
evening the General walked to the cottage
Of the president Of the association, Lewis
Miller, OF Akron, Ohio. After supper,
while the party we're seated on the porch,
q large crowd gathered and asked for an
opportunity OF shaking hands with the
General. The handwriting process had
but lust begun when an old woman step.
ped up and half whispered In Grants ear;
"Aiy boy was killed under you In the
WildernpES.n
Instantly Grant turned, and taking the
old woman by the hand. said kindly:
"Come right in here, and, leaving the
crowd TO wait, he led her to q seat on the
porch. There the two talked for fully ten
minutes, and when the old woman went
away 1t was with a prlud heart.
Something Of the same kind happened
while the party were coming down on the
Lake Shore aud Michigan Southern Road.
A stop was made at q water station, where
q small crowd had gathered, knowing that
Grant was on the train. A one.leggsd
soldier, using a crutch, hoped TO the edge
Of the rear platform and said:
"Can't shake hands with Grant2"
The request was conveyed TO the Gem
eral, who at once responded, greeting the
veteran heartily, and asked his name and
regiment. aN M
