John M. Palmer was born at Eagle
Greek, KY, Sept. l3, 1877. First
cooper, then peddler he finally de-
termined to become a lawyer. This de-
cision he reached from chance &C
ouaintance which he formed with Ste
phen A. Douglas. He occupied himself
in teaching school and study, and in
the spring of 1880 he went to Alton
and thence to st. Louis. From there
he went back TO Illinois and studied
law in an Office at Carlinville.
He drifted into politics and became
candidate for county clerk, but was
beaten. In the winter of lS39 he walked
to Springfield and was examined for the
bar by John Y Scammon, of Chicago,
and Stephen A. Douglas. He was ad
mitted, and that night strolling into
political meeting listened to a speech
made by Abraham Lincoln. Shortly
after Mr.. Palmer became deeply i'm
elected probate judge of Macoupin
county. In 1851 he ran for the senate as
an Independent Democratic candidate
against Douglas and was elected.
On the breaking out of the war Mr..
Palmer entered the service of the United
States as colonel of the Fourteenth llli-
nois volunteers. He served under Gen
Hunter in Missouri. In December, 1861,
he was made brigadier general and
commanded division of Pope's army at
Island No. 10. He fought at the battle
of Harrington, where he achieved great
distinct on. AT the battle of Stone river
he wore his major generals shoulder
straps. In 1864 he was made military
governor of Kentucky In 1863 he was
elected Republican governor Of Illinois.
He supported Horace Greeley in 1872
and Tilden in 1876. In 1883 Mr.. Palmer
was nominated for governor of Illinois
by the Democrats, but was defeated by
Fifer, Republican.

HOW TO DETECT 1T.
Some Valuable Hints Regarding the Grippe
Signs Of lis Approach and How TO
Cnnnferaci Them,

The discussion as 20 the cause OF the Grippe Is
OF course interesting but gives little satisfaction
20 its unfortunate victims. Whether caused by
micrope or vsgaries Of the weather, It's ravages
continue aud the country still bends under the
scourge. In Chicago recently the deaths from
this cause were 80 great that the undertaking
facilities Of the city were insufficient 70 meet me
emergency. The death-rate is correspondlngiy
high everywhere.
Ii cannot be too strongly impressed en- people
that, In order 10 ward of the disease, warning
symptoms must be regarded and prompt action
taken. IL becomes extremely difficult TO dis
lodge the disease II allowed 70 take its course.
Hence It's name. IL generally commences with
a slight headache or pains In the small OF the
back or limbs IL does not always give one even
as plain hint as this-a feeling OF tightness
across the forehead, buzzing in tho ears, or PEE
cular feeling about the eyes. may be all tne
caution one gets, 20 II Is culpable carelessness 10
neglect even these slight signs.
The remedy lies In q stimulant and the prefer
ence should be given 20 whiskey. All the doctors
of the country are agreed on this point, but are
very careful 10 impress on their patients the TACT
that pure whiskey alone must DO taken. Duly 8
Pure Malt Whiskey is the purest on the market,
and can be readily obtained at all drugstores.
This preparation, which is endorsed 10y all the
leading doctors, scientists, and chemists OF the
present day ia this year adding 70 that first
class reputation which IL won during the cpl
demic Of the Grippe last year. There are many
imitatOrs who say their whiskeys are "tust az
good.n Do not be deceived. They are not.
Duffy's Pure Malt is the only medicinal one.
