MISS LETTER ERECTS
MONUMENT TO HER DOGS
Death of Two Japanese Spaniels In
April Was Great Blow-Buys
Handsome Stone.

Two elaborately carved tombstones
have been completed and placed ovcf
the graves of Naezan and Chiko San,
the pair of Japanese span!els whom Miss
Daisy Letter once called her best
friends. The handsome dogs were the
gift of her brother. Joseph Letter. Both
died in April of this year. and were
buried with great ceremony at Linden
Lodge the Lake Geneva. H.. home of
the Letters.
Prince Naezan. the elder, was Miss
Letters favorite. Princeling was his
pet name and the whole Letter house
hold joined in Miss Letters worship of
her canine friend. When the silky brown
creature with red eyes and knot on
his tail passed into the great unknown
en- April IA there was great grief and
lamentation in the Letter household.
Six days later his playmate. Chiko San.
died. supposedly of grief over his loss
of his elder brother
The bodies of the dogs were borne
from the Washington mansion, where
they died, to the Geneva\ home and
planted in a little mound protected by
weeping willows. and there they rest,
not unknown or unsung for every morn
ing during the recent sojourn of the
family at Linden Lodge their double
grave was daily covered with mignonette
and sweet william.
Now two costly tombstones have been
erected over the graves o. the animals.
The tombstones are constructed Of
white marble and lie upon the grass
like sarcophagi. They arc three feet
long. two feet wide and about a foot in
height. Besides being elaborately carved
about the sides, with all the skill of the
stonecutter's art, each is engraved on
the face with the name of the deceased
canine and the date of its death.

Danger Signal in the Alps.

According to the international agree ment recently made in regard to the danger signal in the Alps, six shots or movements of light will be recognized as a call for assistance. In cases of stomach, liver and bowel troubles, it is always wise to heed the first danger signal, and give Nature the assistance she is calling for. The best medicine to aid the stomach in digesting the food, to stir up the liver, or to open up the bowels, is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. It is backed by record of fifty years of cures. Be sure to try the Bitters if you are a sufferer from indigestion, dyspepsia, fatulency, constipation or bilousSSss. Our private stamp is over the neck of the bottle.
