of the letter, however, Mr.. Papy thinks it

Ing what a day may bring forth. and 1t
is on this principle, perhaps. that the war
department is seeking to get on file all
the data with just what troops would be
at its disposal. and what the facilities
are for moving them rapidly.
Savannah is mentioned as the point at
which 1t woul be desirable to mobilize
the troops. as IN case OF any difficulty,
this is the point at which they would be

Such a suggestion as this letter con-
tains. will. no doubt. call TO mind to many
of the older S~avannahians. scenes of the
war and reconstruction periods, when
there were hundreds of troops here. or at
the Qualifications outside. which defended
the city. Savannah can. no doubt. afford
ample facilities for taking care of the
troops if they should ever be brought
here: and she can put a regiment or two
in the field. along with them. herself.
However all this may be. there is little
suspicion in anyone's mind that there will
be any necessity at present for the mob

the Plant System will be called upon at
a very early date to haul them along at
the rate of sixty miles an hour. 1t is in

George Briggs, of Moore, Oklahoma,
writes that P. P. P, Lippman's Great
Remedy, cured him of catarrh, facial
neuralgia and rheumatism, after three
years Of intense suffering. The pain
lay in his cheek bone and temple, down
the right side Of his face, along his
upper lip, and from the slightest touch
he suffered agonies for weeks at a time.
Could only open his mouth wide enough
to admit a teaspoon, and any acid in
his food would put him in torture. He
a a consultation of the best physi-
clans in Texas, but all to no purpose.
Catarrh and rheumatism were also
causing him much trouble, until he
tried P. P. P. He says he is well and
will swear that there are no cases of
neuralgia, catarrh and rheumatism,
no matter how chronic or how old the
cases are, that P. P. P. will not make
a total cure of.
Mr.. Briggs winds up his testimony
by saying he thanks God and our med
icine, P. P. p, Lippman's Great Rem
edy, for the great cure.
Kidney troubles, if neglected, bring
about serious and painful and very
often fatal results. P. P. P. removes
the Irregularities, and cures the dis
eased parts.
Dyspepsia and indigestion, skin and
blood diseases, car be speedily removed
