to one Of the leagues Of Gods house in
the Grisons canton.
The Holy Alliance of 1909 was formed
by the Catholic party in opposition to
the Evangelical Alliance, which con-
sisted Of most Of the princes of the Ger
man Protestant states.
THE League of Public Evil, 1895, was
name applied to the League of Pub
lie Good, because the people for whose
benefit that organization was supposed
to be formed were almost entirely ig-
nored by those in control.
The League of Armed Neutrality
was convention, originally formed in
1850, between Russia, Denmark and
Sweden. The estates general subse.
quently entered this league, and it was
also joined by the king of Prussia on
May 8, 1881, and by the kaiser October
8 of the same year.
The League of Argos, formed B. G
421, was combination of Argos, Cor
NTH, Flea, Mantinea and Chalcidice
against Athens. 1t was designed te
curb the power of the Athenians, but
It's purpose was frustrated shortly after
by the unexpected incident of Athens
joining the league and becoming one Of

THE GUARDS STORY.
From the state Journal, LincoIst Neb.

IRON ire SCUte JOuTHut, LtHCOtt' Neo.
There is probably not stronger man or
more trustworthy guard employed at the
Nebraska State Penitentiary than j. T.
Rafston. To stranger he appears very
good example Of the man who boasts that
he never was sick day in his life.
For many years Mr.. Ralston lived at Sy-
racuse, Nebraska, and the old residents
there remember him as one of the strongest
and healthiest of their number.
In 'S9 or whereabouts, when the grip
first broke forth in this section OF the coun-
try, it claimed him as one of its earliest VIC
Tins. Like most men with strong phys
ique, he sneered at the disease and did not
guard properly against it. For days he lay
in bed and left it only as confirmed in
valid.
About this time he moved with his family
to Peru, Nebraska, where some of his chill
dren were attending the State Normal
School. He hoped the change would do him
good, but he was disappointed. He doctored
with the local physicians, and even with his
own son who was practicing medicine. AL
seemed to no avail, and, miserable IN mind
and body, the poor man told his family that
he feared there was no hope for him.
A happy thought of his own led him to try
strong stjmulants. He was again able 10
was but temporary, and when bad weather
came on he was subject to severe attacks OF

usher. Last fall, however, he was put out
on the wall, and with his change OF work
came his old trouble in even more aggra-
waited form. He was not only troubled WIN
the usual miserable feelings OF the grip, :,
but he found himself short OF breath ana
generally weak, these things uniting MIN
for the duties of his position.
Once more, almost in despair, he sought a
cure, and purchased q box OF DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People. He used
them accordingto directions and felt better.
Five more boxes followed the hrst ana the
ong sufferer was well man.
Said he to Journal reporter, to whom ne
had lust given the above facts: II feel now
as though could stack more hay than any
man in Nebraska, and if needed position
now l would hunt one on harvest held.
Why, only last Sunday night ! took Sc,
we're cold, which a year ago would nave laiu
me up with the grip but now 1t causes
me only temporary annoyance, and simply
live it off. !"
