s'In every change of position, or halt
for the night" said Gen. Grant.
"~hether Confronting the enemy or
not, the moment arms were stacked,
the men intrencked themselves. It was
wonderful how quickly they could
construct defenses of considerable
strength"
Today the lines which both sides con-
structed can be followed up hill and
down hill, through forest and farm. In
places they are still breast high. 1t
was the aim of Lee to keep little in
advance, to select the most advsnta-
geous points and to fortify them, with
the idea of compelling attack by Grant.
And thus the way was worked through
the wilderness with shovel
aud ak and bayonet and musket. A
few inches of dirt might stop bullet.
The soldier of 1864 took no more
chances than the necessities of war
compelled. He had learned the art of
intrenchinR and that art finds the
highest exemplifications in the Wilder
ness and around Spottsylvania.

The woman who is lovely in face,

weak, sickly and all run down, she will

constipation or kidney trouble, her
impure blood will cause pimples,
blotches, skin eruptions and wretched
complexion. Electric Bitters Is the
