they had earned their rest, and were

take | saw Mt the time was putting mex

line and posting Wagner's veterans 300
yards in their front. The only answer to
this that ! have been able to learn was,
or is, that it was designed to keep the
men of the Twenty-third Corps together.
Many of the Fourth Corps had been sent
across the river TO assist i'll protecting our
rear; heavy details were made from the
Fourth Corps, to assist i'll getting the
wagons across and away. If | mistake

never before i'll the history of the world.
Our expenditure of cartridges was 300
rounds per man. Our comrades in the
rear kept these coming; would run a
wagon up as near as consistent, unload
break open the boxes. bring them up and
turn them in heaps beside our men. For
every man engaged firing on our side the
enemy lost one either killed or wounded.
From this it will be seen that our aim
was better than the average. 1t should
be borne in mind that, aside from the
break in our line on the Columbia Pike,
probably a distance of 200 yards was in
volvcd-1O0 yards in actual possession of
the enemy and 30 yards on either side in
doubt. No other part was even ratified"

do just as ! say. Over half million
people have secured my Treatment in that
way, and 80 out of each 40 have paid for
it because they were cured. Not a penny
is accepted if it fails.
There are 80 chances in 40 that l can
cure you. No matter how difficult your
case, l take the entire risk, for those half
million cases have proved what my rem
edy can do.
My way is to strengthen the inside
nerves. j bring back the nerve power
which alone makes each vital organ do its
duty. No other rememdy does that; and
in most chronic diseases there is no other
way to get well. Don't let doubt or pref
udice keep you from asking about it.
