several hundred gentlemen holding
high executive positions throughout the

upon an application for admission from
a member of the military telegraph
corps, and he has been duly received.
The decision was based upon the posi-
ton taken by Gen. Sherman when, at
the head of the army, that they were
as much a part of the army as though
armed with muskets in the ranks" and
upon the fact that both Gen. Thomas,
commanding the Army of the Tennes-
see, prescribed a uniform for members
of the corps in all respects similar to
that of commissioned officers, except
the shoulder straps.

A Mothers Gratitude
ManJ a Mother i'm Raleigh
Will Appreciate the
Following.

Many strong man and many healthy
woman has much for which to thank
mother. The care taken during their
childhood brought them past the danger
point and made them healthy man and
woman. Children are generally bothered
at some period with incontinence of
urine, and inability to retain it is often
called a habit. 1t is not the children's
fault-the difficulty lies with the kidneys
and can be readily righted if taken in
the proper way. Raleigh mother
shows you how:
Mrs. A. c. Howell, of 215 E. Davje
street, says: my little boy suffered, l. I'm
a kidney weakness. The secretions from
those organs were thick and he always
complained of being unable to retain 1t,
and often wet the bed. He had sallow
look and his back ached a great deal and
he also had much headache. l had doc
tor attend him but he seemed to grow
worse instead of better. / noticed Doans
Kidney Pills highly recommended IN our
papers and 1 got box of them from
Bobbitt-Wynne Drug Company's store
Before the boy had taken half of them
there was a decided change for the bet
ter. The secretions from the kidneys
became natural, he did not complain of
backache or headache, and there was
wonderful change for the better in his
complexion. Doan's Kidney Pills are all
that is claimed for them and I will only
be too glad to say so at any time"
