Each day, each month, each year, the
Grand Army of the Republic is growing
smaller. AlEasst each hour is some veteran
soleher of the Rebellion responding to the
call of the Great Commander and joining the
army Of sse silent majority. At such an
alarming rats is the death rate increasing
among tho nriny membership that stntisil-
tians tell us, chat it will be but few years
before the Veterans viii be but memory.
1t is for this reason that the entire public is
interested la kTowing 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. McKelvy Post G. A. R., of St.
Cloud, Minnesota, contains one such, and
his name is Milton f. 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 resident of Minnesota, and for the
past ten years has resided in this city, where
he removed from his farm i'll 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 a man ffty-one years of
age and was born and raised in Saratoga
Comfy, New York. from which State he en-
llStcu IN tne war OF uut TtDtllloli VII tiit Nou
day of November, 1861, in the Seventy
seventh New York Regiment, Company G..
Here he served his country faithfully for
three wears and seven months, having been
engaged in sixty battles, including the bat
tie of Gettysburg.
During the war Mr.. Street contracted
heart disease, which was accompanied by
excessive nervousness. AS age increased
his symptoms grew worse and many were
the remedies resorted to by him without the
slightest relief His constitutional weak
ness was such that he was obliged to give up
his farm work and take up something lighter,
which he did and has been engaged in car
pet making since taking up his residence IN
ST. Cloud, through which he has made II
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 DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People:
"Six months ago. at the suggestion of Il
comrade. who lad been benefited by DR..
Williams Pink Pills, took up their use,
carrying out the instruction faithfully, and
l very cheerfuliy state that they are the
greatest nerve builders l ever took. They
have done me world of good and / have
been greatly benefited by their use, where
everything else ! took failed to give me the
relief l sought for. l have recommended
them to large number of my old comrades
and it is pleasure for me to do so, fer feel
that the manufacturers are deserving Of any
good that | 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 they
doubt the genuineness of this statement.
When interviewed Mr.. Sweet felt so CRATE
full for the good that he hadreceived through
DIR. 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.
Subscribed and sworn to before me this
18th day Of June. 1896.
