In the brave stand taken by ex.

ing Senator Buffers bill for the pen
sioning of ex confederates, there is
a mapliness which cannot but excite
the admiration of the country at
large
The plucky old fellows who wore
the gray in the war between the
states have no intention of allowing
themselves to be placed in the atti-
tude Of beggars for national bounty.
They are very frank in stating their
reasons for opposing the Butler bill.
For the sake Of their convictions
they followed the fortunes of the
Confederacy and they propose to
abide by the results to the end.
They are prompt TO avow that they
have no claim on the government,
and they add sturdily that, having
maintained themselves thus long by
their own exertions. they propose to
ksep it up along that line to finish.
AS the Arkansas ex confederates
assert IN their letter to Senator
Berry, there is no ranoor againet
the government 10 reaching this
decision In the late war with Spain
the sons of old soldiers of the con
fedoracy were as prompt as any in
volunteering for military service
against foreign foe. The old is
sues are dead, one flag waves over a
united country-none are more loyal
in support Of that flag than the
younger generation of southerners,
urged on by their fathers.
The old confederates are both
gritty and logical in c2ndemniDg

mendably high spirit ia taking such
action, aud the country will respect
them accordingly.

as a Christmas Present,

as a Christmas Present.
Chicago, Jan. DIR. r. D'Unger,
who claims 10 have been offered
$4,000 for his secret for the cure of
alcoho ism, has given it to the world
as a Christmas present He is 70
years old AMI gives his formula, he
says, with the desire Of being of real
service to his fellow creatures 1t is
as followt:
Fluid extract of cinchon. rubra,
one pint, cinchona sulphas, ten
grains, quioida, three grains
Mix and shake the bottle well
before pouring out each dose.
The dose is from one to two tea
spoonsful every two or three hours
until the desire for liquor has ceased.
Then for about thirty days, one tea
spoonful before each meal.
The cure is brought about in this
way: Alcohol is noD-cumulative,
requiring an increase of doss, or
more frequent doses Cinchona Is
cumulative, requiring decrease of
dose. or less frequent doses. The
cumulative action overcomes the
effect of the non-cumulative Taking
small doses for thirty days after the
crave for drink has disappeared
secures the antiperioiic property of
the remedy, thus preventing a re
turn OF the paroxysm for drink.
The remedy ia safe-wouldu' t in

improve with the first dose. The
cure is certain.
