resident of Washington, and has a wide
acquaintance with public men. He

J doris with ex-Congressman Dorsey one
day, and as they passed the telegraph
office Dorsey stopped, and sent a mes
sage to the secretary of the interior.
To save the trouble of writing it out he
dictated it to the operator who looks
after such things. Gilliland is an ex-
pert operator himself, and he observed
that Dorsey dictated at just the pace
the operator was sending.
"You must be able to read the instru-
ment," said Gilliland

In tents of green our heroes sleer.
Their SAUNDERS undisturbed and deep;
The nag triumphant waves
Where comrades pass with solemn tread
Sweet bloom OF May again to spread
Above our honored braves.
All silent there. in calm repose,
They reck not friends. they fear not foes
Their grounded arms are mute:
No drums redoubling beat they hear
No stern command. no victor's cheer.
or sentry's quick salute.
In faded blue or faded gray.
The truce OF God is theirs to-day.
So let them calmly rest;
Who won the field With sure renown,
starry flag. a fora crown,
Above each heros breast.

When the stomach dishonors the drafts
made upon it by the rest OF the system, il
is necessarily because its fund of strength is
very low. Toned with Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters, it soon begins to pay out vigor
in the shape of pure, rich blood, containing
the elements of muscle, bone and brain. As
a sequence of the new vigor afforded the
stomach, the bowels perform thei- functions
regularly, and the liver works IKE clock
work. Malaria has no effect upon a system
thus reinforced.

No visions OF charge and foray.

Not a few are sfiIl camping to-day

Everywhere in the CAM Of the blue
They sleep side by side in the meadows.

Shin the stars upon vidette and picket,
Tire rights OF their long vigils Ger;
And the drums for them no longer rattle
And silent is eysn's tattoo.
No more sounds the onset TO battle
For the rose-covered heroes in blue
Love fashions the wreath for their hOsOms
