A reporter called. on Wednesday
evening. May 8. 1895, at the resi-
dcnce of Mr.. William McMahon,
No. 1858 Pearl street, Brooklyn
Village (C~leveland), o.. to learn,
if possible the cause of the notice
able Improvement in his physical
condition over that Of a year ago,
when he was Il sufferer from
indigestion and various organic
disorders. You see" began MI.
Mcmahon, "tO start with, my work
that of setting type at the case
allows me little chance for bodily
exercise, and is altogether too
combining for anybody who is in the
least subject to indigestion or
dyspepsia. Perhaps not more so
than many another mechanic or
artisan who is constantly indoors
and under severe mental strain,
while the physical development is
sadly in need of something 70 keep
it in trim. Well, that has been my
complaint lOl NtaiS, anu SUNNI
months ago l became very bilious,
and constipation made life misera-
BILE for me at times. Then it took
a sea- in my LIVER, which became
n~oticeably inactive, and l became
alarmed about it. The first thing
| turned my attention to was to
secure Il liver regulator which,
however, failed to regulate; next
l sought relief in liver pills which
so panied and griped me that the
cure was, l thought, worse than
the disease. The next thing | did
was to throw away the whole
shooting match and resolve to
take no mor proprietary medicines.
However, on hearing my tale of
woe. one day, at the office, a fellow
workman offered me a small Tabule
-RipanS, he called (which, he
said, he would guarantee to act
on the liver. l took it under
protest, expecting to be doubled
up in about fifteen minutes with
the 'gripes.' But l a ~agreeably
surprised in its action. 1t was
very gentle, and l resolved to try q
box. Since then have gradually
noted an entire change in the
working OF my system, and think
that Ripans Tabules are the best
remedy for liver and stomach
troubles this side Of anywhere.
They are really a substitute for
physical exercise. Have one before
you go:" And Mr.. Mcmahon
produced his box of 'stand-bys"
from his inside pocket as the
reporter took his leave. ,

Old soldiers of Guernsey County and CAM
bridge, O., numbering over 400. called upon
Mai Mckinley at Canton Friday. Exon
gressmau Taylor and Capt McFarlane made
introductory speeches. Maj. Mckinley, re-
spending, said:
81 am glad to meet the representatives OF
labor. / congratulate them on the advance
ment that has been made in tho tin-plate III
dustry. / am glad TO- know that Republican
legislation gave to this country an industry
that gives work and wages to American work
ingmen and brings happiness to American
homes. Great cheering.
81 am glad to meet my old comrades OF the
GAR. my comrades of IS years ago. Whom
the war closed there were two great debts rest
ing upon this Government. One was the debt
due TO the men who had loaned the Govern
ment money with which 10 carry on It's mill
tary operations. The other debt was due to
the men who had willingly offered their ives
for the preservation OF the American Union.
TCheers The old soldiers waited patiently for
their pensions until the Government had re-
duced nearly two-thirds Of the great money
debt. The old soldiers never were IN faVor OF
repudiating that. ApplnuseI They wanted
every dollar of the debt paid in the best money
known to the commercial world lapplausoI'
and every dollar of that debt up to tins hour
best-recognized money in the world lCheers.l
And every dollar Of that debt, my comrades,
yet to he paid will be paid in the sane unques-
tianed coin. Tremendous cheers
Most of that debt is out OF the way. Inc
great debt of this Government is now to the
surviving soldiers of the Republic. Applause.
There are go 600 pensioners on the honored
pension roll of this Govern ment to-day, and
the Government pays ont of It's pnblic treasury
in pensions $140000,000 every year to The sol
diers and sailors. their widows and their or
phans. Every dollar OF that debt must be PAID
in the best currency and coin OF the world.
TGreat cheers and cries of The Republican
party will see to that"
There is nobody more interested in main
tanning sound and stable currency than the
soldiers and sailors Of the Republic .cres OF
"You arc right their widows aud orphans.
Our old Commander Gen. Grant Lappiausel,
whose memory is cherished by all of you, per
formed two great aud conspicuous acts whom
President of the United States Ono was veto
ing the imitation bill, that would have cast us
upon the sea of deprecated currency, and the
other was the signing OF the act for the resump-
ton of specie payments that placed every dol
lar OF our money upon the sound foundation OF
financial honor and unquestioned National
honesty; and the old soldiers this year, as In
all the years of the past, following their OLD
Commander, will stand by the financial honor
of the Government, and will no more permit
our Nations integrity to he Questioned than
they would permit that flag tpointing to an
American flag to be assailed" Applause.l

from the Courier, ZanesriIle, Ohio.

Word painters have exhausted their stores
of verbal coloring in depicting the horrors
of war. The awful scenes of carnage on
battlefields, and the horrors of pestilential
prison-pens, have been written of at length
in almost every history of every war. The
distressing plight of the patriot who has left
an arm or leg in the ditch under some CORY
rampant, or c.. the open field, appeals to cur
sympathies whenever and wherever we
chance to see him.
There is one class of sufferers from wars
horrors, however, of whom little is heard
and practically nothing written. They are
the men who returned permanently disabled
to their homes at the close of the late war;
after long and gallant service; whose sacri-
fees few but their immediate friends, rela-
tives and neighbors adequately appreciate,
or, indeed, really know any thing of.

cine seemed to have no more power than so
much water. He finally despaired OF ever
being better.
But behind the dark cloud of his affection
the sun of comparative health and strength
was shining, and at last burst through the
shadows as brightly and unexpectedly as a
ray of light on a rainy April day.
A child in his family, however, was taken
sick, and Mr.. Hughes attention was called
to the merits of DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People. Reading in the circular
accompanying the pills that they were
highly recommended as cure for rheuma-
tism, MIR. Hughes thought he would try the
experiment of taking them himself, although
he hardly anticipated any good results. 81

It is to this class that Mr.. M. l.. Hughes,
now resident of Shawnee, Perry County,
Ohio, belongs.
When the Civil War broke out Mr.. Hughes
was one of the very first volunteers. He en-
listed in June, 1861, in the Fourth Regiment
of West Virginia Volunteer Infantry. This
regiment, as the records of the war show, saw
much active service being a large part of
the time under the command of the late
Gen. W. T. Sherman. Mr.. Hughes served
until almost the close Of the war, remain
ing in the field until the month of July,
1854. When he was mustered ont of the
service he found himself as much handi-
capped in running life's race as if he had
been torn by shot OR she'll.
The malarial breath Of the Mississippi
swamps, through which Mr.. Hughes went
on gunboat on his way to Vicksburg, had
left the seeds of rheumatism in his sys-
tenn. He came home with his nerves
shattered and his health permanently iu-
paired.
He consulted, he informed representa-
tive of the ZanesyiIe Daily Courier, more
than dozen physicians in different parts of

rectly to some arrangement of the organs

are often neglected because very natural
