Call not back the dear departed,
Anchored safe where storms are DER;
On the border land we left them,
Soon to meet and part no more.
A precious one from us is gone,
voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.
God, in his wisdom, has recalled
The boon His love had given,
And though the body slumbers here,
The soul is safe in heaven.

Loose clothes and downy cushions bring
only u negative sort of comfort TO the
woman who is suffering with some disease
or arrangement of the organs distinctly
feminine. Some clothes and some positions
make the pain and the discomfort seem
less. Perhaps the nerves are most affected
and this in turn disturbs the digestion.
Nothing will ever completely relieve but IA
radical cure. The start Of so-called "female
complaints" may be very slight thing in
deed. 1t may be that in the beginning some
small hyglenic measures would stop the
trouble. Certainly at this time, little bit
of the right medicine would stop 1t. When
the trouble becomes worse, IL is harder to
cure, but still II can be cured. DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription will positively cure
any trouble of this character. 1t may be
absolutely relied upon. 1t affords lasting

Captain McStocker Has no Par
tiSular Choice,

In speaking of the rumor yesterday
that the Citizens Guard will contest
the right of the militia to corral all the
appointments. Deputy Collector OF
Customs McStocker said yesterday;
As 1 have said before in some of
our previous interviews, | prefer not
TO talk on this matter, and if l have
any influence with the members of the
organization | have the honor to com
mand, | shall request that they keep
their tempers. Neither President Dole
nor the Government have made any
official or unofficial statement of their
views on the subject, and l don't see
that we need care what any of the mil
tia officers may have to say on the
subject. But while we have the subject
under conversation, | will say that
consider that every man who turned
out, no matter to what organization be-
longing. on the night of the 9Th or
morning OF the 18th, may fairly be con-
sidered a loyal supporter of the Gov
eminent and entitled TO equal consid-
Grafton, and that those who have since
Joined either of the organizations
pledged to support the Government are
TO be considered as occupying a stand
ing that does not give one any advan-
tage over the other, their sincerity be-
ing the only question to consider"

ADMINISTRATION SCORED.
"Traitorous Action in the Late Cam
paign" the Cause.

Washington, Jan S.-The Jackson
Democratic association of the District
of Columbia held it's annual banquet
this evening in Masonic temple, and
among the guests were many of the
most distinguished Democrats of the
district. The administration was
criticised for its so-called 'traitorous
action in the late campaign" Letters
were read from several Democrats,
notably Senator James K. Jones of Ar
kansas, chairman of the Democratic
campaign committee, and late candi-
date William j. Bryan, the latter say
ing:
L regret that circumstances prevent
nv celebrating Jackson day with you.
We have reason to commemorate the
virtues of the hero of New Orleans.
His courageous defense of the rights
of the people against the assaults of
consolidated capital made him the idol
of his party, and the remembrance of
his achievements should inspire the
Democrats of this generation to re-
neWed devotion to a government of the
people, by the people and for the peo
Die. His final triumph in a struggle
similar to that in which the Democ
racy was engaged this year, gives us
encouragement and hope of ultimate
success
Among the speakers were Senator
Morgan of Alabama, Senator Black
burn of Kentucky. Congressman Sui
ger of New York and others.

And rocked not danger, doubt. nor death,
To find the paths where freedom led.
So we march onward hand to hand,

Our eyes upon that stored land,
Where all may see and serve the truth.
Onward marching. hand to hand.
Our eyes upon that STORED land.
Its promise still our hope must be
THE truth shall make you free.
The chains OF all the ages break
From off our feet in that far place,
And wond ring hearts forget to ache,
And joys crown every open face.
Onward. then for freedoms gift.
We know that soon the gates shall hit.
Their promise still our hope must be
The truth shall make you free.
We march where saints and martyrs
went,
Where sages gray and children go,
On truth and freedom ever bent.
New hearts and lives and hopes to
know.
o thou. whose mercy calleth still
All hearts and hopes and lives to thee,
Lead on our eager feet until
Thy perfect truth shall make us free.

THE truth shall make you free.
