ALITTLE SUFFERER

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
ScrofuIous Huaors - How a euro
Was Effected.
"When five years old ny little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. Il
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
It appeared in the foFa OF rcd pimple5
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. Afser disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. Ny
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had heipd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
it to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles OF Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out Of his
blood and it has never since returned"

The home-c coming of Company was
not unmarked by sorrow and dissppoint-
mont Captain Kooser was left behind,
burning with typhoid fever in a hospital
in Lexington, Ky. His disappointment
must have been bitter indeed when he
learned that the company he had been
instrumental in organizing and OF which
be had been selected first officer and had
commanded until he was stricken hy
disease, was ordered back 10 the bills of
dear old Somerset and he could not go
with them. But his disappointment
could not have been more poignant than
the grief of the boys who were Obliged TO
return to their homes without him. The
members of c, mpany l speak in the
highest terms uf Captain Kooser. Ad-
vices from Lexington are TO lhe effect
that Captain Kooser is in no immediate
danger, but it is thought there that he
will not be able to return home for
week or ten days.
Another SORROW to the boys was caused
by the physical condition Of three or four
of their comrades: John f. Snyder, who
had to be carried from the train at Johus-
town 10 the Memorial Hospital, where
he refused to remain, and was carried
back and put on the train and brought
home to his wife and children. suffering
the first stages of typhoid fever; John
Grof, who was so weak from malaria
that he had TO be assisted from the sta
ton TO the Hotel Vannear, where he was
placed in bed and a physician called TO
prescribe for him; Bert Landis, also suf-
fering from malaria and too weak to walk
to the Hotel Vannear or to remove his
clothes unaided before retiring. Grof
and lands were taken to their homes in
Berlin on Monday. Several other men,
bers of the company who had been striek-
en- by fever we're still too \; esk to march
in the parade.
Still another sorrow to the boys was
oecasioned 10y the absence of twenty three
of their comrades, two or three of whom
were left in tho hospital at Chickamauga,
others at State hospitals, and others who
had been granted sick fIrlongh and sent
10 their homes. The names Of those alb
sent are: Frank 5. Ayers, Curtis n.
Bird, Allen f. Boyer, Calvin Burke,
Chas. T. Coehrane, James t. Conley,

90 oomembers OF the company carrying their
rifss fe1 in line and marched to the
public square where they went through E
series Of evolutions. which evoked round
sfter round of applause from the people
who witnessed them.
|. appears almost incredible that the
boys who marched away from Somerset
on the 9Th day Of July, every one Of them
totally ignorant OF military tactics, should
return two months later able 10 perform
the intricate evolntions with the precis-
ion Of veterans. II speaks volumes for
their drill masters and Of the determina-
ton OF the volunteers TO prepare them
selves for actual warfare.
Another surprising feature in the APP
pearsnce Of Company l is the great
change that has tagen place in the physi-
cal bearing Of the men, Every man
stands erect and handles his gun with the
grace and dignity of n true soldier.
The people Of Somerset county have
every reason TO feel proud of Company /.
Their patriotism has been firmly estab-
shed, and in addition to their willing

1t is aspretty sight to see 8 peanut plan
tation when the vines arc in blossom. The
blossoms are a bright yellow, and the
vines are a vivid green. AS soon as the
blossom appears a fine branch forms on
the vine and shoots down into the ground.
The peas, as the nuts are called on Tho
plantation, form on tho shoot beneath the
ground, like potatoes. When the crop is
gathered In October, the vine is plowed
up, and the nuts hang to the roots. Vines
and all are piled in cocks in the field, and
in 90 days the nuts are ready TO be pulled
off, placed In bags and taken to the fac
tories. There they are o~leansed of dirt,
assorted, polished IN revolving cylind srs

thing which few college presidents usually
neglect to Go. When his appointment was
made, he was travelling in Europe. but
started back at once in response to a cable
gram from President Mckinley.
DIR. Hill was born in Plainfield, N. j.,
on June 10, 1850. He is the son of a Bap-
tist minister, the Rev. Daniel L. Hill. He
was prepared for college at Suffield, Conn,
and az Cooperstown, N. Y. At the latter
school he wrote a series of short sketches
and q biography of Ulysses S. Grant.
AT the age of 90 he entered the Uni
versity of Lewisburg, now Bucknell. In
his junior year he received the prize for
oratory. At his graduation he became an
instructor in his alma mater, and later
professor Of rhetoric.
About this time he began to write on
educational subjects, publishing in quick
succession 1.-THE Science of Rhetoric"
ssThe Elements of Rhetoric and a series
of essays on American authors similar to
Morley's s'English Men of Letters.
DR.. Hill was made president of Buck
nell in 1879. In 1884 Madison college gave
him the degree of LII. ID. He soon began
to write essays on principles and Falla-
cies of Socialism, y which were afterward
published in Lovell's Library. An analytic
edition of tJevons' Elements of Rhetoric"
soon appeared. Several other works came
next, and then his Elements of Psyehol-
ogy," which has been commended by
critics as q textbook.
In 1889 he became president of the Uni
versity of Rochester, as successor to Mar
tin 3. Anderson. This place he filed to
the date of his resignation in 1896. In the
later wears Of his presidency he took an
active part in several political campaigns.
