Two little boys, six and eight years,
were overtaken on their way to a pond
in the outskirts Of Philadelphia on
Wednesday with their infant sister in
basket. They had become jealous Of
the baby, because of the attention she
received, and resolved TO drown it, as
they had seen their father dispose Of
litter of kittens. During the absence
of their mother the boys popped their
Objectionable sister into the basket, Gov
cred it up and started for the pond.
The mother returned, found the cradle
empty, surmised the truth, gave chase
and saved her baby.

Caught by an Octopus.

a diver who was trying to find pearls
of the Alaska coast, found none, but
found himself, all Of sudden. in the
grasp of an ugly octupus with arms
twenty-seven feet long. Such an ex-
perience is rare; but there are thous-
ands of people who are caught by dys-
pepsia, which is quite as bad. An oc-
topus hates to let go. So does dyspep-
sia. Browns Iron Bitters settles dys-
pepsia, and makes it loose its cruel grip.
Mrs. Schmidt and her daughter, of 1876
Conway street, Baltimore, were both
cured of dyspepsia by the use Of Browns
Iron Bitters.

s,onewan jackson Monument

To the Comrades and Countrymm Of
StonepaU Jackson:
More than twenty years have passed
since the death of Gen. II. j. Jackson,
and the spot where he lies buried Is UNI
marked, save by the simple stone placed
there from limited means by his devoted
wife.
We we'll know that he needs no mon
ument. His grand figure will loom up
in history, though this generation pass
away and leave no sign of its appreci-
alton of his virtues and his greatness.
But the men among whom he lived,
moved and earned Immortality the peo-
pie whose cause he illustrated by his
proves and vindicated by his noble
Christian life and heroic death; the
surviving soldiers of the brigade, divis-
ion and corps, whom he led and loved,
and W hose names are linked with his
to immortal renown, should not 20
down to their graves without some en-
during memorial of their affection for
his splendid achievements and char
acter.
In this spirit the Jackson Memorial
Association" consisting of soldiers
who served under and with Jackson,
has been organized under a charter
granted by the State of Virginia.
The object of this association is to
erect a monument commemorative Of
the love and veneration with which his
countrymeu cherished his memory.
The Association and its object have
the sympathy and approval of the hon.
ored widow of our dead chieftain.
That the monument to be erected may
be a beautiful, and in some degree fit
ting memorial of the hero whose last
resting place it will mark, Il considera-
BILE sum of money will be needed; but
sums which can be readily secured, II
each soldier who followed him, and
each man and woman who admired and
loved him, will make contribution,
however inconsiderate, to the fund.
We therefore appeal to the country
men of Stonewall Jackson, and particu-
larly to the noble women of the South,
and to the men whom he led to battle,
to come to our assistance.
A small sum from each will enable
the association to erect at his tomb 4
structure which will beautifully aud
appropriately speak to coming time Of
his greatness, and of the love and all
miration OF his countrymen.
Contributions are requested to be sent
to c. VI. Figgst, Treasurer of the Jack
son Memorial Association, Lexington,
Va.
G. w. {. LEE,
President Jackson Mem'l Association.
