shock of columns by its brilliant fighting won
the admiration of it's friends aud the respect of
its foes.

momento of those glorious days.

There cannot possibly be q moro distressing
infection in the long list of painful disorders,
not one that has baffled the skill of physicians
and entailed so much suffering as Rheumatism.
To those afflicted we would advise to try
Durang's Rheumatic Remedy. 1t is an internal
remedy, and cures quickly and permanently.
The Editor of this paper is not only we'll
acquainted with the proprietor Of this great
cure, but will tell you that the medicine itself
is without an equal for all forms of Rheuma-
tism. Before asking your Druggist to order it
for you write for my free 4O-page pamphlet,
