upon the greensward around the old

the grassy lawn for their beds. A few

were impressive and pathetic. Under
bright sun and sky through densely
packed streets and with the applause
of countless thousands to cheer them
on, the followers of the lost cause
marched through the city which is
dearer to the old confederates than
any other in the land. It was a sight
to stir the enthusiasm of the most
sluggish nature, as, with bands play
ing, companies moving and col
ors flying, the parade passed re-
view. Two hundred children, boys
and girls, wearing white and
red sashes followed the police, who
cleared the way and led the process
sion. The chief marshal, Gen. Gordon,
in civilian dress, looked a royal com.
mander, as did Gov. O'Ferrall, who
rode with barred head. Mrs. jefferson
Davis was in an open carriage and
bowed and smiled as the cheers greet
ed her on every side. 1t was estimated
that Is, 600 people marched in the pa
rade. Nearly 900 Missourians were in
it, and Oklahoma and Indian territory
were each represented by camp.
Reaching the park, the corner stone
was laid with masonic ceremonies
Gen. Stephen D. Lee was the orator of
the occasion In closing his grafton
he said:
In calmer years, when the last ember of Sec
tional feeling has burned out. and the last
word OF love has gently bound the hearts of
all Americans together. fathers will bring
their little children to this spot and tell them
the story of a pure, great man who suffered for
his people and for the right they under
stood it, and how for this they loved him as
they loved no other. Long as yonder noble
river shall roll its tide to sea, it shall behold
no man more kiugly. He was a perfect, gentle
knight May the story of his life be sweet in
days to come. and. at last, all men come to un-

 The prince has 200 suits of clothes. and when he suddenly discovered a growing dsinclnation on the part of his trousers to meet around the royal waist he was alarmed. He cast the trousers aside and the valet helped him into another par. As they were built by the tailor on pre- cisely the same lines as the other, they, too failed to meet the requirements or the princely physique.
 It did not take Wales very long to dis cover the real cause of the trouble, and his fears were confirmed when hrst one waistcoat and then another refused to encirce the royal figure. His coats be- gan to draw across the back from shoul- der to shoulder. He gave up trying to button his coat, and he compromised with his waistcoat by leaving the two bottom buttons unfastened. It is need less to say that all the swells who were at Cannes when these calamities hap pened also left their vests unbuttoned at the bottom to be strictly in fashion.
 The prince had planned to make quite a stay on the Riviera, but the unlocked

 This daily contact for year after year with such troubles gives experience. Ex. perience is essential to success.
 My Medical Dispensary was established In the city of Birmingham August 8. 1Ss7 for the exclusive cure of Private Dis eases. Privacy is one of its special fea- lures. It is so arranged that one patient never necessarily sees another, People who have social relations to sustain ap- preciate this.

l AM TIRED.
Everybody Is Tired-Sudden Hot Weather Does It-Every One Should Be Cautious.

Depression of the nervous system at the approach of spring is the cause. Gen eral lassitude, dull, heavy sensations, continual tired feeling, with irregular appetite, and sometimes loss of sleep. Pe-ru-na meets every indication and proves itself to be perfectly adapted to all their varied peculiarities. Pe-ru-na invigorates the system, reiuvenates the feelings, restores the normal appetite and produces regular sleep.
 That tired feeling, which is the natural result of the depressing effect of warm weather immediately after the invigorat- ing cold of winter, quickly disappears when Pe-ru-na is taken. Thousands are daily testifying to its priceless benefit.
 Tired, Nervous Women.
 There are thousands of them every where. A few bottles of Pe-ru-na would do them untold benefit As a tonic and nerve invigorator it has no equal. It builds up the nerves, it gives strength to the circulation, and at once restores the appetite and digestion. No feeble woman should be without Pe-ru-na.
