AN OPEN QUESTION.
Il Harrison . pssesrdsut Of Poeshan,ss.

IL Harrison . Descendant Of Po~eshantss,
It is popularity believed that Presi-
lent Harrison is descended from
2ocahontas and from the Parliamen-
;ary soldier and regicide General
Thomas Harrison, who was executed
n 1860.
Pocahontas, daughter of Powhat-
IN, manifested a friendliness for the
Early white settlers of Virginia when
she was but a girl. The story of
now she saved the life of Captain
John Smith, who had been captured
and condemned to death by her
ather-how she, on several oc-
,asions, made known to the settlers
their danger when about to be at
tacked-is we'll known to all &C.
1uaited with the early history Of
America. Her subsequent marriage
with John Rolfe, an Englishman-
her removal to England were a son
was born, from who m numerous
wealthy families of Virginia claim
descent-is the basis of the opinion
that President Harrison is one Of
her descendants.
Whether this be true or not it Is,
however, well-known that President
Harrison is a descendant of q noted
family, distinguished alike in peace
and war. The name of Harrison is
already indelibly written upon the
pages of American history, for Gen.
pral VIM. Henry Harrison-the ninth
President of the United States-was
the grandfather of Gen. Ben. Harri-
son.
The election of another memeber
of the Harrison family is but anoth-
er proof of the prevailing disposition
of the public to return to healthy ad-
ministration of public affairs so
characteristic of the earlier years of
government. A similar desire has
been manifested for a revival of
early manners and customs in many
various ways, of which mention in
particular can be made of the pre-
vailing demand for those old time
preparations which were so success
fully employed in the prevention and
cure ofthe ills and ailments which
%trequented the early log-cabin
homes.
After much inquiry and research
a noted manufacturer has procured
the original methods used in their
preparation and again under the
name of Warmers Log Cabin Rene
dies, the public is possessed OF those
well-known preparations for the cure
of coughs colds, consumption in it's
early stages, blood disorders, CO.
tarrh, dyspepsia, debility, and other
common disorders.
Notwithstanding the amount
oftime, attention and expense which
the manufacture of Warmers Safe
Cure demands-its well-known repu'
tation as the only remedy for the
prevention and cure of kidney dis.
eases being world wide-the manu-
facturer is resolved to push the merit
of Warmers Log Cabin Sarsaparilla
to the front because of it's splendid
blood purifying properties and great
value as a household remedy and
spring-time system r%enovator.
Pocahontas, during her lifelong
friendship for the white settlers Of
Virginia, besides her many acts Of
kindness, is said to have contributed
much valuable information to the
log cabin home concerning the sue
cessful methods employed by the In:
dams in the treatment of disease and
it matters little whether the alleged
relationship between herself and the
President be true or not for the
name of Pocahontas is already i'm
mortal.

There is another ''9'' which has also

Iuxurious Travelling.

The progress in railroad construction
is not more marked in any direction
than that which pertains to the safety
and comfort of passengers. What is
mure wonderful than the present
method. under which travellers find as
many convenienees and as much conf
fort on railroad trains as i'm their homes?
The Northern Pacific Railroad has al
ways been among the first to adopt i'm
provements in train service, and their
Vestibule Trains. consisting of elegant
Pullman Sleepers and Day Coaches, are
models of excellence. Nothing could
be more enjoyable than a trip over this
line, passing as it does through the
grandest section of the West.
