In Memorial.

;DlED.-Of consumption at Soldiers Home, Los Angeles County, Cal, April 8th, 1897. John w. Taylor, late of E. Co.,, 12th Ohio Cavalry, aged 56 years.
 "As Leat by Leaf the Roses Fall" so also quickly but sadly are passing away, the remnant of that Grand Army who gave to their country's cause, the four best years of their manhood that our flag, and the grand possibilities of our country, might be realized to future generations, types of the grandest and noblest of all earths chivalry. "The American Volunteer Soldiers" And as we stand by his open grave paying the last respects, to our soldier comrade, may we express the hope; that ere the last volley is fired, and the last lingering note of the sweet old bugle, is heard echoing back from the beauti- full hills overshadowing his grave; that unseen white robed Angels of Peace may be there, and as they wait his wounded soul on high and into the regions of immortality be- yond, that the voice of the Grand Master may be heard saying:
 We'll done good loyal servant
 Thou hast fought thy last battle.
 Thou hast gained thy last victory,
 Enter thou into thy love,
 Sleep comrade sleep,
 Life's fitful dream is OCT.
 A CoMRADE.

Hall Catarrh Cure is the only positive care known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being constitutional disease, requires con stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system thereby destroy ing the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by build ing up the constitution and assisting nature in doing it's work.
