Several years ago Chamberlain 4
Co., of Des Moines, Iowa, commenced
the manufacture of a cough remedy,
believing it to be the most prompt and
reliable preparation yet produced for
coughs, colds and Group, that the
public appreciate true merit, and in
time it was certain to become popular.
Their most sanguine hopes have been
realized. Over three hundred thou
sand bottles of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy are now sold each year, and
it is recognized as 1.-THE best made"
wherever it is known. 1t will cure
severe cold in less time than any

Moorhead News: When merchant
gets the notion of retrenchment into
his head, about the first item of ex-
pense to lop off is the newspaper. We
doubt the wisdom of such Il course
upon business principles, for we have
an abiding faith that advertising, as
a rule, pays. It should be done in a
systematic manner and attention be
paid to it as in other things. The ads
should be made attractive so as to be
read. A merchant who edits his space
and skillfully is read as
widely aud with as much interest as
the editor, and especially by the la
dies, who do most of the buying for :
the family. The withdrawal of adj ,
on the 1st of January
Is therefore a detriment to trade, and
what is worse it is almost death to r
the newspaper and severe blow up :

of value to the town, and 8

Titled to the cordial and liberal sup :
port of the business men of the place 6

an old veteran, A bombshen flies with
long "w-o-u-s-h!" something like the
rush of big sky-rocket, and there are
shells used by the light artillery which
fly with a sort of long-drawn sigh, not
at all terrifying. But the man who
hears the scream of Whitworth shell
will never forget the sound to the day
of his death. 1t is a concentration of
the war-whoop Of an Indian, the snarl
of tiger, the scream of woman in
mortal terror 1t begins afar off with
muttered threat OF vengeance; it
grows upon the ear with howl as of
wolves in pursuit of the lone traveller
comes nearer with shrieks Of baffied
rage; it is at hand with scream
which can be likened to nothing but
the cries of mob mad for death and
destruction.
I have seen dozen men killed by
these Whitworth shells, and / verify
believe that most Of them were so ter

cept by the explosion of gunpowder or
itro-glycerine. The victim may see a
fash, hear roar, but it must come in
the fiftieth part of a second. The ven
geance of man grants him the merest
iota of time. Those at the right and
left see fash of flame and hear an
explosion and the "w-h-i-n-g!" of frag-
ments, but the victim-perhaps the
man on his immediate right or left-has
been blotted off the face of the earth,
as if he had never existed. When the
roar of battle has died away to a low
growl; when the growl has become an
occasional mutter; when the mutter
has lapsed to gasp, in which a man
in blue or gray yields up his life to a
stray bullet, we will make a search.
There is blood on the parched grass,
bits of burning clothing on limb and
bush, lock of hair here and there
with a bit of scalp attached. We may
find a button or two, broken or
twisted gun barrel or bayonet, the
visor of soldiers cap. That is all.
These are the relics-the fragments
of a soldier struck by a shell. That
is, they may be. Sometimes not even
button is found, nothing but splash
on the earth to show that blood and
fragments fell there. ....

Captain Phil Welshammer, of Onarga,
expressed himself in substance as fol-
lows:
"My friends, you have been attend
ing camp-fres for many years, and
have heard how this regiment or that
one put down the rebellion, but there's
not word of it so. Not that soldier
would tell falsehood, but they were
just mistaken. Now,it was the Twenty
first Illinois Volunteers that did put
down the rebellion, and I'll prove it to
you. We were fighting and pounding
away here in the West, and fought
and pounded our way to the Gulf. We
opened the Mississippi from north to
south, and the news We heard from
the Potomac was that all was quiet.
The feeling all over the North was
growing that something more was
needed. Finally, Gov. Yates said to
President Lincoln:
"'Why don't you take the Twenty
first Illinois and put down the rebell-
ion?"
Lincoln said he had not thought of
that, but would. After consulting Sec
retary Stanton, he said to Yates:
"'I1l take your regiment; but, then,
I guess I won't need them all; I'll just
take one man."
sand he did. He took our command
er, General Grant, and he put down
the rebellion"
The Captains argument was con-
elusive. Ohio Soldier.

Wanted tho Barns Burned.

The following story is told of Cen
eral Sherman, the time being just after
his failing to break Joe Johnston's front
at Kenesaw Mountain: 1T was plain
that more thanking must be done, SO
the Great Flanker' ordered General
Cox's Division of the Twenty-third
Corps to make a detour and threaten
the enemy's left. This involved long
march, and General Sherman made his
way to the top of high hill, where we
were lying, to enable him to overlook the
country and see operations better. He
sat on stump with map spread out
on his knees, and was giving General
Cox directions as to his line of march.
After doing this he mounted his horse
and started away, but, after having
gone little distance, he shouted back !:
See here, Cox, burn few barns occa-
sionally as you go along. I can't un-
derstand those signal flags, but / know
what smoke means.

rified by the sounds that they suffered
nothing in the moment OF death. One
could tell, after q few experiences,
whether the shell was 10 the direct
line or to the right or left, but the
coming ever brought feeling of help
lessness-a sort of dumb terror which
held the limbs captive. One could not
have run away had he so desired; but
where could one run to? Who could
say Just where these terrors would fall
after their fiigbt--the instant they were
to explode and send their fragments
hither and thither to search out and
claim their victims2
While the blockaders lay off the
mouth of the Cape Fear River two or
three of the Whitworth guns were in
constant use by the Confederates.
They had range of six miles, and were
almost as accurate as rifles. When
ever a blockader ventured to within
range by daylight she became target
for Whitworth. If the wind was off
shore we could hear one of the "devils"
as soon as it left the muzze of the gun.
Its fight began with shrek of fiend-
ish glee, changed to moan of agony,
rose to scream of vengeance, and the
last quarter of mile was a combina-
tion of scream and shrek which
brought the hair on end and the cold
chills to the spine. The man who pre-
tended not to fear them was base
hypocrite. The man whose ears can
take in those sounds without affecting
his nerves does not live to do battle.
Our vessel was struck two or three
times, and on five or six occasions had
close calls, but the shells which struck
were no more terrifying than those
which dropped into the water with the
hiss of monster serpent hundred
feet away.

The Soldiers View.


On the bloody field we lay,
Meath the clouds that shut of heaven,
Though full mauv man to-day
Entered through riffs bullet-riven.
Hurrah, boys. for the soldiers life,
Far from children, home. and wife;
Marched to death in useless strife
God, ere he goes bo his sins forgivenl
Thou hast said that by the sword
Shall be stricken those who use It;
What for those who, at the word,
Asked for quarter will refuse it2
Hurrah, boys, the cannon roar,
Soon there will be room for more
On the field where, wet with gore,
Earth drinks life from those who lose 1t.
Things are changed since Jesus day
When He on the mount was preaching;
Who Is there but now would say
Quite impractical His teaching?
Hurrah, boys, the fates befriend,
We but risk the life they lend;
Soon OF late all journeys end
Why care where our boat is beaching?
