Penainn Vetaea.

A recent report Of the pension Com
missiOners shows Mr.. CleVeland's great
heart for the soldiers who fought to save
this country from being divided in the
war OF the Rebellion. According to
the Commissioners report, Cleveland
has signed 1869 pension bills in little
more than three years Of his admins
tration, 271 more than were signed by
Lincoln, johnson, Grant and Hayes in
twenty years. Now, no one will charge
General Grant OF General Hays Of
wanting sympathy for the soldiers.
Even Democrats would consider such
an insinuatiOn as an unmitigated in
suit TO those men, one of whom is liv-
ing among us as our honored towns
man. Why then should it not be con-
sidered as an evidence of either incura-
BILE lunacy or downright devilishness
when Republican blOod-hounds and
traducers of character charge Grover
Cleveland with unpatriotic motives af-
ter he has signed more pension bills
than all his Presidential predecessors
for nearly quarter offs century.
There is only one thing for which the
President is more deserving of the
gratitude of the soldiers. That thing
is the fact that he vetoed some fraud
ulent bills which had passed Congress
in the special interest of certain men,
bers thereof, who had no other politi-
cal stock in tratie for reelection than
the sickly sentimentalism of their
great concern for the soldiers. III
Cleveland had not vetoed those fraud
ulent bills, as he in superlative manli-
ness did, he would not be worthy of
the soldiers support at the polls. AS
it is, he is worthy of just such an ex-
preston of their confidence as he is
likely to receive in the November elec-
tion.
The Republicans who are charging
Cleveland with want of sympathy for
the soldiers because he refused to
squander their money upon bounty
jumpers, deserters and frauds may sue
ceed in throwing dust into the eyes of
few fools who never barred their cow
ardly breasts to rebel bullets, but they
can not so impose upon the soldiers.
Soldiers are lovers of fair play, and, as
rule, are sufficiently intelligent to
draw the mask of hypocrisy from
miserable schemes as are resOrted to by
those who pretend to believe that
Cleveland is not in sympathy with the
soldiers, even after he has affixed his
official signature to more pension bills
than three of our distinguished soldier
Presidents-Grant, Hayes and Garfield
during period of more than dozen
years,

Log Cabin Success.
What ails the young men?

What ails the young men?
Robert Garrett's father left him q
fortune of twenty millions. He was
from childhood reared in luxury; he
received splendid education with an
especial training into a thorough
knowledge of railroad management
and was expected to succeed his father
as a railroad king. .It#
/ Within three years after the RESPONSE
bilities which his fathers death threw
upon him were assumed, he is reported
a broken down man, with mind and
health permanently shattered.
George Law is another young man
left with millions of money. who is re-
ported among the wrecks" His
father, bred stone mason, was of
gigantic size and strength, with COM
mensurate brain power, so he became
great contractor, then railroad king
and left half dozen millions for his
son to dissipate. The young man is a
success as dissipator.
The founders of both of these great
estates were born in the most humble
walks of life, grew strong, mentally and
physically, by simple living and honest
labor and developed into financial
giants. Their sons were reared in the
lap of luxury and developed into in
tellectual pigmies., .-v
The great men of our country have
not, as q rule, come from the elegant
mansions of the cities, but from the
log cabins of the rural districts. Simple
ways of living, freedom from dissipa-
ton and enervating, pleasures, simple
remedies for disease, effective and
which leave no poison In the system,
develop brawny, brainy men, who
compel the world to recognize their
strength and power. ,oy
The wholesome, old fashioned Log
Cabin remedies are the safest and
surest for family use. Our grand
mothers knew how to prepare the teas
and syrups Of roots, herbs and balsams
which drive disease out of the system
by natural methods and leave no after
i'll effects. The most potent of these
ld-time remedies were, after, long and
searching investigation, secured by HI.
H. Warner of safe cure fame, and are
