Cav. at LoveiOy Station Nov. is, where we
captured two little steel rifled guns, with
teams, drivers and gunners We kept those
guns through the whole campaign. Each
company detailed men and horses, and
hid them on inspection days. They fired
the last shots at Johnston's army at Morris
vile, N. c., April Is, 1865. The General
neglects Macon Nov. 90; gives the infantry
most OF Griswold. He overlooks Buekhead
Creek Nov. %, and forgets q big one at
Waynesboro Dec. 4, where we settled
Wheeler. He don't tell how mad Kill
patrick was when Howard would not let
him take Fort McAllister, but sent Hazen.
But If Fitzpatrick was mad we were glad, as
he hunted more fights than we cared about"

in the hospital at Camp Cleveland when we
were all poisoned with the exception of one
guard-reief. 1t was a sorry time for u.s.

tell me if it was ever known what the poison

Dr. Peters Blood Vitalizer has puzzled
many by its peculiar efficacy in the treat
ment of blood and constitutional disorders.
1t has won over and made friends of many
skeptics who were sick and in distress. 1t is
not to be had in drug stores, only local
agents handle it. If there is none in your

WASHINGTON, ID. c., April a, 1895.
DIR. PETER FAHRNEY,
Dear Doctor To our delight, we can re-
port to you that last evening Mrs. Forster,
our neighbor, called upon us and told us in
the deepest gratitude that her daughter, who
had been a sufferer with epilepsy for over 90
years, had been completely cured. We had
advised the use of the DIR. Peters Blood
Vitalizer, but they claimed that the ailment
was of too long standing TO permit of any
relief, and far less cure. Nevertheless, we
finally induced her to use the remedy. stat
ing that a trial could do no possible harm,
and now they see the result.
Yours very truly

From the Philadelphia Record, January TO-
The marvellous growth and great success
of the Munyon homeopathic Remedy
Company is an object lesson well worth
studying. This company has been in ex-
istence only four years They launched
into business which seemed already
overcrowded, where the sharpest COMPETE
ton had to be met, yet we are told that
this company earned last year over quar-
ter of a million dollars, and that the rem
edies are used in every civilized country.
This shows what merit, backed by cease
less energy and liberal advertising, can ac-
complish.
Mr.. Munyon says he attributes his sue
cess to two reasons. First, making sure
that his remedies were just what he
claimed for them; second, telling the peo-
pie the truth about them by liberal news
paper advertising.

Hall. on 9TH street, and was largely attend
ed. 1t was strictly a Gleeson and Bailey
meeting. and the presiding officer, fearful
lest some coup would be tried by the other
delegates, announced as each speaker con-
cluded his remarks that no one in the inter-
est of any 9TH candidate save Gleeson and
Bailey would be heard. He fortified his po-
sition later by making out a list of those
whose oratorical abilities he desired to pre-
sent, and allowed no one else to speak, al
though there were frequent calls for others.
The majority of the audience was of the
colored persuasion, but the Caucasian mi
Eority was by no means despised few.
When the hour for opening arrived there
were few people i'll the hall, but by o'clock
there was scarcely standing room. 1t was

disturbance that marred the meeting was
the persistent cheering and interruption of
