Each day, each month"; each year, the
Grand Army of the Republic is growing
smaller. Almost each hour is some veteran
soldier of the Rebellion responding TO the
call of the Great Commander and joining the
army of the silent majority. At such an
alarming rate is the death rate increasing
among the army membership that statist-
tians tell US that it will be but a few years
before the Veterans will be but memory.
1t is for this reason that the entire public is
interested in knowing when one of their
members is saved from DEATH restored to
his family and becomes a healthy and strong
man, with almost the bOuyancy of youth.
James NJ. McKevy Post G. A. R., of St.
Cloud, Minnesota, contains one such, and
his name is Milton T. Sweet. No man stands
higher in the community than does he and
through his strict integrity and honesty of
conviction he has won the respect OF all who
know him. Mr.. Sweet has for many years
been a resident of Minnesota, and for the
past ten years has resided in this city, where
he removed from his farm in Wright County
partly to give his daughters, five in number,
the advantages of the superior educational
opportunities offered here, the young ladies
now being teachers in the public schools OF
the State.
Mr.. Sweet is now man tifty-one years of
age and was born and raised in Saratoga
County, New York, from which State he en-
listed in the war of the rebellion on the 23d
day of November, 1861, III the Seventy
seventh New York Regiment, Com Dany q.
Here he served his country fai;h;ully for
three years and seven months, having been
engaged in sixty battles, including the bat
tie Of Gettysburg.
During the war Mr.. Sweet contracted
heart disease which was accompanied by
excessive nervousness. As age increased
his symptoms grew worse and many We're
the remedies resorted to by him without the
slightest relief His constitutional weak
ness was such that he was obliged 10 give up
his firm work and take up something lighter,
which he did and has been enga I'd in car
pet r,G'5inn since taking up his e.,:dCnce in
st. Clos through which he has made Il
comfortable living and has gathered about
him an abundant supply of worldlY Goods.
But let Mr.. Sweet tell the story Of his re-
covery to almost complete health through the
use of DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People {:
"Six months ago, at the suggestion OF
comrade who had been benefited hy DR..
Williams Pink Pills, ! took up their use,
carrying out the instruction faithfully and
l very cheerfully state that the" are the
greatest nerve builders | ever TOOK. They
have done me a world of good Hnd ! lave
been reatly benefited by the use here
every ing else took f, ed l.. i've the
relief ! sought for. | .,tye u-som :ded
them to large number of my old comrades
and it is a pleasure for me to do so, for feel
that the manufacturers are deserving Of any
good that I can do them in saying good
word for their product, in return for the good
they have done me. will gladly recommend
these pills to any one writing me if tney
doubt the genuineness of this statement"
When interviewed, Mr. Sweet felt CRATE
full for the good that he had received through
DR.. Williams Pink Pills that he did not
have the slightest hesitancy in going on
record His word is considered his bond by
all who know him throughout this section.
Mr. Sweet is not the only one in Stearns
County who is using this celebrated medi-
cine with equally good results.
