SUPERINTENDENT White,s Address.

The superintendent Of the asylum. DR..
William A. White, followed with an
address. He said:
Many Of us who are living today
have very little appreciation Of those
troubled times, really only a very few
years ago, when the brave soldiers who
lie buried in these grounds helped to
fight for the principles which they be-
leved to be right. and performed untold
numbers Of gallant deeds, few Of which
relatively have ever found their places
on the pages of history. And yet. the
very fact that so many of us are as
sembled on this occasion to DO honor to
their memories IS evidence of appre-
citation Of what they helped to ac-
complish and an unanswerable argu-
ment for the overwhelming DatrIotisr,
of the American people.
Il bcneve that in those countries
where gallant deeds and noble lives are
not revered and commemOrated the
national character must lack those ele-
ments which make for all that is good
in the individual and In society. To my
mind there Is nothing more inspiring
nothing that so appeals 10 our love OF
country, and our love of right and
justice as the contemplation OF the
lives of great men and of the great
deeds Of history, and believe that the
youth of the country who have never
seen and therefore cannot appreciate
the .. ElOTS OF war ana the horrors OF
internal strife and dissension cannot
have developed in them the higher
social emotions. of which love OF
country is perhaps the greatest, bstter
than by a study Of history, particularly
the history Of their own country.
At the conclusion OF DR.. Whites ad-
dress. the musical program was resum-
ed by the band. which played Nearer,

followed by a poem, our Honored

Mr.. Ross Address.
George c. Ross spoke Of the divergent
views held by the fathers as 70 the
principles which should govern the new
republic. and stated that the Constitu-

result of compromises; that our fathers
lived In States widely separated, and
that in the absence of railroads and

Forty years ago. IL is a short span,

er. Forty years ago this land was rent
in twain, and bitterness was in every
mans heart. North and South. Grant
and Lee were locked in deadly conflict
and no man seemed able to guess the
result. The line of war divided the
North from the South, and the North
itself seemed to be rent in twain as to
continuing the conflict. The storm
clouds Of political defeat were gather
ing thick around the patient head Of
Lincoln. Enemies more bitter even
than those of the South We're hurting
their deadliest weapons at him.

IN GREAT DISTRESS
VomlTING SPELLS LONG RESIST.
ED EVERY EFFORT TO
CHECK.
Thinks She Would Have Died But
For Or. Williams Pink Pills.

Mrs. Sarah i. Brooks. OF No. 40 Lin
coin Park, Chicago, Illinois. gives the
following account of her cure from dis.
tressing spells of vomiting:
For five years Off and on | was
treated in vain by different doctors
for relief from a stomach trouble
which showed itself in frequent and
trying spells of vomiting. Part of the
time | was able to work, and again |
would be confined to bed for three or
four days in succession.
My stomach was at times so deli
cate that 1t would not retain even
plain water. The spells would some
times occur at intervals of half an
hour, and would leave me so weak
that ! would be compelled to lie down
between them. would have several
Oh them during the night following
a day of such attacks. Finally | be.
came SO weakened that had to give
up working altogether. | weighed only
ninety-fCur pounds.
Last January read about DR.. VII.
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People in
one of the Chicago daily papers and
bought a box and began to use them.
After ! had used half box | found
that | could keep on my stomach the
food ] ate. was encouraged by this
and kept on using the pills for four
mouths. At the end of that time the
vomiting spells had ceased altogether
and my weight went up TO l42 pounds
and is still growing.
II think | surely would have died IL
it had not been for DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. for | sometimes vomited clear
blood and for three or four days at a
time | could not eat bite of any
thing. One doctor said | had chronic
Inflammation of the stomach, and an
other said my difficulty was a cancer.
but none Of their medicines did me
any good at all. Finally ] concluded
that l did not have blood enough to
digest my food, and began the treat.
ment that has cured me. | can eat
anything now, and have strength for
all kinds of work. | always keep DR..
Williams Pink Pills on hand, and
recommend them to my friends be-
cause know they cured me-"
Dr., Williams Pink Pills agree with
the most delicate stomachs and
strengthen the digestive organs until
they do their work perfectly. They
