Free A Wonderful Shrub.-Cures Kidney
and Bladder Diseases, Rheumatism. etc.


New evidence shows that Alkavis, the new
botanical product Of the Kava-Kava Shrub, is
indeed q true specific cure for diseases caused
by Uric acid in the blood, or by disorders of the
Kidneys and urinary organs. A remarkable
case is that of Rev. A. c. Darling of North Com
stantia, n. Y, as told in the Neao York World of
recent date. He was cured by Alkavis after,
as he says himself, he had lost faith i'll man
and medicine, and was preparing to die. SINH
lar testimony of extraordinary cures OF Kid
neg and bladder diseases OF long standing
comes from many other sufferers, and 1900
hospital cures have been recorded in 80 days.
Up to this time the Church Kidney Cure Co.,
No. Ais Fourth Avenue, New York, arc the
only importers of Alkavis, and they so
anxious to prove its value that for the sake of
| introduction they will send q free treatment of
Alkayis prepaid by mail to every reader of

TENSIONS.
A Penitent Johnny.

Daniel B. Freeman, Co. G., 10th Vt, Chi
cago says: AT Cold Harder, one day, the
10th VT advanced over their works down to
the marsh in front. The skirmishers were
not more than 80 feet in advance of our line
of-battle While the regiment occupied this
position along the edge of the marsh, the
enemy occupied = position on the opposite
side, and both sides were without protection.
Between the two skirmish-linss lay a
rebel with one leg broken. He was large
man, and had been wounded "a hours pre-
viousIy. He was dying from thirst, and his
means pitiful to hear.
1.-THE sllirmish-line had been in this posi-
ton something like an hour, when Andrew
J. Pride threw down his musket and said
Boys can't stand this any longer. Who
will go and help me carry that reb to the
rear?'
"Three others from Co. G. went forward
together crossed over more than half the
distance between the two lines, picked up
the wounded rebel and carried him to
place of safety. When they had spread his
blanket and placed him on it they gave him
water, and when he had revived sufficiently
to understand who had brought him from
the field he said Boys, / have been brought
up to hate the Yankees all my life, but L
shall do so no longer. You have done for
me what my own men would not do. You
have risked your lives to save my own, and
I shall never cease to respect the Yankees as
long as | live"

The French government is now dis
cussing the ACCESSIBILITY of extending
the system of anthropometric measure
ment from criminals to soldiers of every
grade and from the army to the entire
population. OF course the idea meets
with good deal of opposition by people
who consider that French citizens are
already burdened with too much red
tape and state interference. But there
are many enthusiastic champions of the
scheme, and it is probable that in the
long run it will be adopted.
