OSTERHAUS AND HIS SMELL.
An Expression Of the German Gen-
eral Which Always Gave the
Boys Am un ement

"Gen. Osterhaus," said the ma ior,
in the Chicago Inter Ocean, twas even
in his serious moods and his most
passionate outbursts, source of
amusement to his men. He mas ter red
easily the science of war, but he could
not master the English language, and
some of his characte expressions
were as household words to the men
of his division. When Gen. Leggett's
division was formed for an attack on
Little Kenesaw, the general in COM
mand sent Capt. Evans, of his staff,
to Osterhaus to ask the latter to con-
centrate his artillery fire on Brush
mountain, and make diversion in our
favor.
"Capt. Evans found Osterhaus seat
ed at a little table eating very frugal
meal. He saluted and said: Gen.
Leggett's compliments to Gen. Oster-
haus. He directs me to say that he
is about to attack the enemy's position
on Little Kenesaw, and if you will con-
centrate your artillery fire on Brush
mountain, the diversion will be Of
great assistance to him. Osterhaus
looked at Capt. Evans a full minute
without speaking, and then said, ex-
plosively: You make my compliments
to Gen. Leggett, und say as soon as
I get through NIT this little rejection
I have here, I will yoost make dem
fellers hell SMELL And before Capt.
Evans could report to his chief, Oster-
haus' guns were blazing away so ef-
fectively as to soon silence the ene-
my's batteries.
"Osterhaus and Sigel were on OPP
posite sides in the disturbances Of
1s4s-49 in Germany, Osterhaus having
a command in the Prussian army, and
Sigel being conspicuous in the revo-
lutionary forces, and they had no lik-

THE skYLARK.

The skylark In the morning
Sings a song of hope and trust;
He asks not for God s. bounty:
He knows that come it must;
And the listener heart is dto Heaven
His faith raised from the dust.
He sings again at noontide
A song of love and joy.
And endless throbbing melody
With naught Of earth's alloy
AID the listen er's heart Is purifi5I
OF earthly thoughts that cloy. .
But the skylark in the evening
Sings a song Of peace and rest;
And Of all these glorious harmonles
This surely 10 the best,
For the listeners heart is quoted
And turned from earthly quest.
Thus morning noon and evening
Sings the bright bird of light;
While listeners, pausing in their WORK,
Grow trustful Of Heavens might,
Till they, too, sing in sunshine.
And find peace in the night

POISONING THE SYSTEM.

It is through the bowels that
the body is cleansed of impuri-
ties. Constipation keeps these
poisons in the system, causing
headache, dullness and melan-
cholia at first, then unsightly
eruptions and finally serious ILL
ness unless a remedy is applied.
DeWitt's Little Early Risers pre-
vent this trouble by stimulating
the liver and promote easy,
healthy action of the bowels.
These little pills do not act viol-
entity but by strengthening toe
bowels enaole them to perform
their own work. Never grippe or
