The Shakers of Mount Lebanon, com
munity OF simple, honest, 6 cd fearing men and
women have prepared the Shaker Digestive
Cordial for many years, and it is always the
same, simple, honest, curative medicine that
has helped to make the Shakers the healthy,
Iong-lived people that they are. The Shakers
never have indigestion. This is partly owing
to their simple mode of life, partly to the won
derful properties of Shaker Digestive Cordial.
Indigestion is caused by the stomach glands
not supplying enough digestive juice. Shaker
Digestive Cordial supplies what's wanting.
Shaker Digestive Cordial invigorates the
stomach and all its glands so that after awhile
they don't need help. AS evidence of the hon
esty of Shaker Digestive Cordial, the formula
is printed on every hottie. Sold by druggists
price 10 cents to 81 90 per bottle.

By digging his hands into the ground
the heroic southerner dragged himself to
the side of the Federal, groaning every
time he moved. After the sufferer had
drunk eagerly the two clasped hands in
token of buried hatred. The Confederate
had overexerted himself and brought ON
hemorrhage, from which he died in a
short time. The boy in blue kissed again
and again the cold hand that had
brought him relief, when he was taken
away to the hospital, where he died
next day.

and for several hours he fingered in the

accommodating, so he told the guard when
he returned and gave the countersign.
Another night and still another he
went outside the lines, and one evening
a week later he went again, this time
taking with him two companions, Ober.
holtz, the new recruit, and a white
haired old soldier in a fugitive cap.
As they walked along Norton chatted
gleefully with the elderly man.

tered an old house in the woods. An old
man sitting inthroned in a rocking
chair gave them kindly greeting.
Sergeant Fred Norton took the hand
of pretty Edith Madden, and they stood
together in the center of the room. The
white haired soldier, Chaplain Whit

ginia woods, in the quiet of the summer

MEMORIAL DAY.
NAY 90. 1897.

MAY 30, 1877.
Softly the south wind comes from haunts afar
And brings its charm TO waiting hills and
wales,
But now IL is not rcdolent of war,
OF grewsome horrors aud heartbreaking
tales.
For peace, with her fair white uplifted wings,
Roigns now uzhindered east. west, north and
south;
The green spring turf unto the piowshare
clings,
And cobwebs lace tho brazen lannon's
mouth.
No more arc serried hosts in battle drawn
No mere are brothers matched In bloody
strife.
Tho tragic devastating war IL gone.
And n now era dawns to stir the life
or this great nation, to uplift the race.
To forward freedom. 10 enfranchise man,
To give the iowliest a chance and place
For each to do the very best he can.
Not in the realms Of ancient Rome and Greece,
Nor in the idyls of Utopia
Can there be found or pictured states like
those
Or any power of such benignant sway.
But this brave land sprang not at once, full
born,
I, Nor found its heritage without a price.
Through battles blaze through toll and hate
and scorn,
Our great republic had its'slorious rise.
Today we meet TO honor those whose scars
And death were given that freedom should
not die
Heroes Of dark, blood red and cruel wars.
Who won for US the final victory.
Bring from fair gardens and the mountain
side
Flowers for their graves touched with the
south wind'e breath,
That their hlest deeds may In our hearts abide
And honor crown their sacrificiai death
Fling out the fiagl Let speech and music fowl
May grateful hearts pause and the wealth OF
May
Be brought for tribute till the whole world
know
The sacred import of Memorial day.

Other wars have been waged for ambition,

no such passions impelled the soldiers Of the

recruit. Don't shoot. If there is only
one, we can capture him.
The German obeyed and brought his
gun to the ground.
Norton stepped forward pace or two
having discerned a face and form in tho
underbrush. He drew his revolver and
advanced quickly.
Surrender, or I'll shootl he de-
manded very earnestly.
Scarcely had he said the words than
he quickly put his revolver back in his
belt and uttered gasp. Of surprise.
The frightened face of a young woman
confronted him.
He saw her stagger as if about to fall,
and, reaching forward, caught her by
the arm. She vainly tried to speak to
him and laid a trembling hand upon the
arm Of the sergeant.
"You had a narrow escape, miss, +"
Norton said to her as the German re-
cruit advanced to his side.
She looked at'Oberholtz in alarm and
again endeavored to- speak, but failed
utterly. She nodded her head as if TO
indicate an affirmative reply.
With his cap Norton famed her pretty
face while her body lay limp upon his
arm. The night wind caused her brown
hair TO brush his cheek, and when her
blue eyes looked full of an unknown
fear, into his own he felt a thrill of ten
der sympathy within.

She meekly followed him, leaving Ober-

took her arm and helped her over the

learning her bame and other facts about
