MAIL IN WAR TIMES.
How President Lincoln Franked An
Envelope For a Soldier.

Let this go. A.LINCOLN."
When the army was encamped in
Virginia, near Washington, in 1S61-62
President Lincoln franked a letter in
the above manner for a youthful soldier
| named Frank King of Fond du Lac
count! Wisconsin. and the envelope is
still held as a sacred treasure By the
family of the soldier lad, whodlost his
life at Gettysburg.
Captain Thomas Jones of the pension
| Office related the story in this way to
a representative of the Washington
| Star:
1.-The boys who have gone to the
front now imagine they have difficult
time getting their letters to home folks
and loved ones, but they have things
dead easy compared to what we had in
the war of the rebellion. Paper and en-
VelopeS were hard to get, and stamps
were almost as scarce as diamonds.
Soldiers who were fortunate enough
to be near Washington had their let
tiers franked by senators and represen-
tatives. and you may imagine that our
national lawmakers We're kept busy
with their pens President Lincoln was
even known to help the boys out occa-
Sionally. On one occasion Frank King,
a private in a Wisconsin regiment, en-
camped near Arlington Heights. got a
package of envelopes, and, with a
House, and asked Mr.. Lincoln to frank
the envelopes. 1t was easier to see the
president then than it is now and at
certain hours of the day a soldier could
reach him as easily as could any of the
high officials. When the president
knew what was desired of him he ask
ed: why don't you get Jour congress
man to frank these envelopes? I am
very busy The folks at home would
like to see your name on the envelopes
replied young King. Mr.. Lincoln smil-
ed; then taking a pen, he wrote on one
Of the envelopes: Let this go. A. Lin
coin He carefully blotted it. and
handing it to King, with the remainder
of the package, said: Now, my boy
take the rest of these to your congress
man, Scott Sloan. and tell him l said
to fix them for you. I want you both
to be brave soldiers and. shaking the
hands of King and Dunn, he babe them
goodbye. King wrote to his parents
that night and enclosed the letter in
the envelope franked by Mr.. Lincoln
The young fellow was killed at Gettys-
burg, but that envelope is religiously
and lovingly priced by the surviving
members of his family. Dunn. who was
with King when Mr.. Lincoln franked
the envelope. called at he White House
two years later and asked to have some
envelopes franked. Mr.. Lincoln remem-
bered him, and when told that King
had been killed his face wore a. look of
sorrow.
yes, the boys have comparatively
easy sailing now about their letters,
and the work of the postoffice depart |
ment in their behalf is no doubt prop
erly appreciated by them"

MISS ANNIE WYANDOTTE.

Miss Annie Wyandotte, queen of the
operatic stage and dramatic soprano, has
written DR.. Hartman a number of very
enthusiastic letters concerning her cure.
Catarrh had completely destroyed her
voice, so that she was unable to speak
aloud. Pe-ru-na restored her voice COM
pletely, enabling her to return to her
public profession. The following is a
sample of the letters which her grati-
tude prompts her to write to DR.. Hart
man, the discoVerer of Pe-ru-na, the
world famous catarrh remedy:
Fifteenth st. and Jackson ave-,
Kansas City, Mo.
"Dr. Hartman:
Dear Sir-Only those who have been
afflicted can ever know the intense sat
isfaction and gratitude that comes with
a complete cure. Pe-ru-na has been my
salvation. 1t has given me back a beau
tiful voice, a gift of God; it has brought
me once more to my old profession
can talk now and sing where before
could scarcely whisper. Can you won
der at my delight? 1 wish every person
who is suffering as 1 suffered might
know Pe-ru-na. 1 was too ambitious
and just at the time when my voice was
at ats best l broke down in New York
city from Overwork, hard study and ca
chair, and for ten months was bedrid-
den. A terrible attack of rheumatism
depleted what little strength l had, and
it seemed as though l was never to walk
or talk any more. My voice was COM
pletely gone. Gradually 1 regained part
of my physical strength, but my voice
did not improve beyond a whisper
had given up all hope. when one day l
read in the Star testimonial of Peru
Marine City, Mich. The tone of it seemed
sincere but to satisfy myself 1 wrote
him a letter. The reply was enthusas-
tic, so much SO that I determined to try
Pe-ru-na.
Here are a few extracts from my
diary kept at the time began taking Pc
ru-na:

you should remember that at this time
had to sit propped up in bed nights on
account of a terrible cough. All my
friends declared had consumption.

January 26-Much better
January 27-Couid speak loud enough
to make mother hear across the room

Columbus, Ohio, the proprietor of Pc

cine was doing me-

ton softly two minutes at a time at in

ration of my voice that inserted an ad-
vertisement in The Star for vocal pupils,
