CAMP LEE. Charleston, W. Va, May
G.-The heavy rains for the past day
have made a perfect lake of the large
plain on which the soldier boys are
calnped and in many places the water
is fully two feet deep. Col. Spillman
ordered the digging of trenches, and a
large drain was opened by noon. One
OF the officers wrote q friend that they.
are contemplating the building Of an
ark and Will transport the troops by
water to New Orleans. 1t was an eyre
gious error to locate the encampment at
kanawhn when plenty of well drained
ground could have been found near this
city.
The regimertal surgeons have been

well as the company. from Moundsville.
1t will take several days to complete
the work Of mastering IL the soldiers,
and from what can be learned now. the
troops will be heldA here until sent out
for active service.
AS fast as the companies are formed
the men are sworn in by Lieut.. Settle,
OF the United States army.
The form OF oath Is as follows: "All
and each Of You do solemnly- swear that
you will bear true faith and allegiance
to the United States of America, and
thatyyou Will serve them honestly and
faithfully against their enemies whom
soever, and that you will obey the or
ders of the President of the United
States and the orders Of the officers APP
pointed over you. according to the rules
and articles of war"

WHAT IS YOUR TRADE}
Each Trade or Occupation Has Its sprcla
tF-Fs nisense. EsfbE tEEsll

Each Trade or Occupation Has Its Sprcia
Disease.
It Is well known among medical men
that certain diseases IRE more readily
developed In certain occupations than
In others. That each occupation has
its attendant physical weakness. En-
gineers, railroad men and similar occu-
pations suffer mostly from kidney trou-
bles, and men who are often exposed
to the weather suffer from rheumatism,
while clerks, professional men, In fact,
the army OF people whose business
keeps them indoors. are oftentimes
great sufferers from piles and constipa-
ton. In this connection the following
letter Is OF interest to. people whose &C.
cupat!on will not allow sufficient out
door exercise.
Mr.. A. F. Calhoun. notary public and
jeweler and matchmaker at Ci-cleville,
W. Va, writes as follows:
I had been q severe sufferer from
piles for years. and had tried many
remedies, with but little benefit, when
about three years ago L saw the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure advertised and sent
for It.
I was badly afflicted when / got It.
but after only two applications the
piles disappeared, and from that day
to this ! have never felt q symptom OF
the disease.
T. feel that I cannot recommend It too
highly to sufferers from piles. +
The Pyramid Pile Cure is free from
cocaine, opium or any mineral poisons,,
absolutely safe, pleasant and painless;
sold by druggists at so cents per packs
nge. II there Is any constipation the
Pyramid Pills should be used with the
pile cure. The pills are rs cents per
package.
Any druggist will tell you that the
Pyramid Is the best known and most
successful and popular pile cure ever
placed on the market. and Its rcputn-
tion as q safe and radical cure has only
resulted from the personal recom-
mendation OF people who have been
cured OF this distressing allmcnt.
Send to Pyramid Co., Marshall, Mich,
for valuable little book on cause and
cure OF piles.

great trade. and there can be no mis-
take about what they indicate.

who were favorably mentioned were:
Rev. Douglass Roller. OF. Charleston;
Rev. 3. n. Spur, OF Moundsvine; Rev.
S. X. Arbuthnot. Of Huntington, and
several. others. Col. Spillman and a few
officers made a hard fight for an Epis-
