The Poor Little Onss.

We often see children with red
eruptions on face and hands, rough,
scaly skin, and often sores on the
head. These things indicate a de-
PRAYED condition of the blood. In
the growing period, children have
need of pure blood by which TO build
up trong and healthy bodies. If DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery"
is given, the blood is purged of its
bad elements, and the child's devel-
opment viii be healthy, and as it
should be. Scrofulous affections,
ri kets, fever-sores, hip-joint disease
or other grave maladies and suffering
are sure to result from neglect and lack
OF proper attention To such cases

in the war of the rebellion was in Stonewan
JackSon's famous campaign in the Valley of
Virginia At Port Republic the Louisiana
brigade carried the day and responded with
cheers To Jaclson's command: The battery
must be tallen!' Gen. Taylor was not a great
admirer of Jackson, whom he described as a
man given over to lemon sucking and PRAYERS.
On this occasion, riding on the flank of his
column, between it and the hostile line. he
saw jackson beside him. Taylor did not con
slider that this was the place for the com
mander of the army, and ventured to tell
him so; but he paid no attention to the re
mark
I'VE reached n shallow depression where
the enemy could depresS his guns" said Gen
Taylor, land his fire became close and fatal
Many men fell, and the whistling of shot and
shell occasioned much ducking Of heads in The
column. This annoyed me no little, rs it was but
child's play TO the work immediately in hand
Always an admirer of delightful Uncle Toby,
had contracted the most villainous habit of
his beloved army in Flanders, and for
getting ,Iacksons presence, ripped out:
What the hades are You dodging FORE
If there is any more of it you will he
halted under this fire for an hour!- The
sharp tones of a familiar voice produced the
desired effect, and the men looked as if they
had swallowed ramrods; but I shall never
forget the reproachful surprise expressed in
Jackson's face. He placed hand on my
shoulder, and said in a gentle voice, Il am
afraid you are wicked fellow" turned, and
rode back to the pike. Ben: Pcrley Poorc in
