Dear Sirs-I would like to add nv
testimony to the almost miraculous ef-
feet Of P. P. p. in the case of Mary
lngraham, woman living on my place;
she had constant cough, sore throat,
debility, ETC., and was emaciated to a
degree that she was unable to get out
OF bed unaided, being given up by ply
sicians; she had taken the ruinous So
called blood medicines without the
least effect, until being put under the
T. P. P, she Immediately began to
improve and is now in as good health
as ever in her life. You can refer to
me at any time as to the effect Of P.
T. T. in the foregoing case.
Yours truly,

THE MORAL IsPLU BNoE OF TEE MONUMENT.

Although the soldiers monument is
as yet incomplete and lacking some Of
its most impressive features in respect
of accessories. its artistic effect and ed
vocational influence are already dis
tinctly felt. No person of any sonsibil-
ity can come within sight of it without
imbibing its spirit and being uncon-
sciously lifted up by the contemplation
of its grand outlines and massive pro-
portions. Thousands of persons every
day crane their necks to take view of
the browning statue that stands full
high advanced, the very personifica-
ton of victory, peace, State pride
and serene satisfaction with
great work well done and great
honor well bestowed. One cannot
view it too often. Morning, noon
and night the eyes of busy people
passing belo W. intent on the various
vocations of city life. are cast upwards
to catch for a moment the inspiration of
that noble figure whose influence all
feel, even if they cannot analyze. And
it is not merely people of culture or ar
tistic taste who experience this enjoy
ment. The hard-handed laborer, the
teamster, the expressman, the huckster,
the cOuntryman, the colored brother,
the hod carrier. all pay willing homage
to the grandeur of the monument and
the beauty of it's crowning figure, and
are lifted for moment above the plane
of their common lives. No matter how
often one looks at it, the view is ever
new. and it must be stolid nature, in
deed, that does not feel it's elevatne in
f1uence. And so it will stand through
the ages. "a thing of beauty and JOY
forever" benediction on the masses,
an educator of the people, reviving pa
triotic memories, begctting high
thoughts and stirring worthy emotions
in the breasts of millions.
