let no larger than pea, that drove back the regulars at Lexington, with a loss in killed and wounded of over 300 of their number.
 It was the close shooting of these same minute men',-raw farmers that under Gen. Stark defeated Bur- goyne and his splendidly-trained Ger man mereenaries.
 Later, in the civil war, it was this skill that made the battles of the pe- riod bloody beyond anything recorded in history.
 The freedom of the citizen in tie use of weapons was found to be responsi- ble for curious condition at the out set of the rebellion. As cavalrymen the volunteers viewed the saber with mistrust. much preferring to pin their faith to the arm with which they were most familiar.
 The effect of horsemen charging sword in hand was very great in all European armies, and it was one of the military maXims of the time that cavalry relying on firearms must sure ly be beaten.
 In America the idea of the common soldier at least was quite different, and at the breaking out of the war the volunteers displayed an extraordinary contemp for the saber. The very small force of regular horse, trained on the approved European plan, alone placed trust in it..
 The southern troops in particular so heartily despised the weapon that nothing could make them give way to a charge of cavalry saber in hand. Lines of slGrmishers and lines of battle when charged by the regularly equipped cavalry of the north would send up the jeering cry Here, boys, are those fools coming again with their swords; give it to them!"
 The western troops had the same feeling at first, and when the rough riders" of the CO.'S were molded into cavalry they showed the utmost re luctance to abandon the rife. At the very beginning of the war much of the cavalry was hastily raised and very iEperfectly armed, often with double barreled shotguns, which did deadly work at close quarters when loaded with handful of sIugs or buekshot. So armed they would charge at full speed and deliver their fire in the very faces of their enemy, and then dash through with a dreadful humping of gun butts on the nen's heads.

AN OLD BULLY.
People who live in fear of his attacks.
How to avoid him or beat him off.

If biliousness isn't the bully of the body then what Is When once biliousness gets the upper hand you don't dare say your stomach is your own. Don't you dare eat that dish says biiiousness, or you'll see what I'll do." You take the dare and you do see or rather feel, the weight of the bully's revenge. The head aches, not a regular ache. but an open and shut ache. The eyes ache, not with dull, tired ache, but with an aggressive ache. as if they were being bored by a gimlet. The stomach tfembles with nausea. "The whole head is sick and the whole heart Is faint" There are scores of hundreds of people who live so under the dominion of this bully bill iousness that they don't dare eat or drink without his permission. There's no need of such slavery. pr. J. C. Ayers Pills efeetual1y cure bi1iousness,,
