Keep Alive Love for Flag.

AS each year rolls around some patri-

Fraternity, Charity and Loyalty.

Fraternity, Charity and Loyalty.
The greatest service the Grand Army
of the Republic has rendered is the
beautiful way in which it gives life to
the principles of the organization-fra
ternity, charity and loyalty.
That millions of men of every degree
of life and station should for 40 years
be bound together by this common bond
of brotherhood is not only worthy of
admiration, but also of imitation by the
members of this republic.
Charity, or love, is the greatest thing
in the world, and love is the key to
every department of life, the founda-
tion of patriotic teaching, the safety of
the country. the home and the individ-
ual.
Loyalty to their comrades, their or.
ganization, their country and their God
has been fittingly illustrated in the
lives of these boys il blue.
This trinity Of principles, If copied
by our SO,OOO,OOO citizens. would make
us the greatest nation on earth.

WHO HAS ARMY ENVELOPES?
Few of These Reminders Of the Civil
War Are to Be Found
To-Day.

1t would be interesting to know just
how many varieties of illustrated SOL
diers' envelopes were printed in the
course of the four-year war. 1t is
said there were several thousands of
them. Every loyal state was prolific
of local as we'll as general suggestive
ideas for pictorial and typographical
expression, and the opportunity was
well improved by manufacturers of
and dealers in stationery. Unlike the
war songs of Root and other COM
posers, this "Union envelope" fad had
an ephemeral existence.
In Grand Army halls and at Grand
Army campfires. and the stage enact
ment of civil war dramas, almost
everything else is seen in the line Of
reminders of the days of '61-5-mus-
kets. swords, belts, knapsacks, haver-
sacks, canteens. tin dippers. belts.
flags. etc.-but the army envelope Is
not In evidence. And yet, even at this
late day, there is, 1t Is safe to opine,
many a carefully treasured specimen
of the oblong, illustrated and inscribed
inclosnre of the soldier boys letter
from the scene of suffering. Of strife
and carnage. which, II 1t could speak,
might tell story of sentimental and
thrilling interest-one of the tens of
thousands of unwritten romances of
annals of the camp and field OF IA
nous military campaigns In the old
~ the new world.

The Grand Army of the Republic.
Day by day their ranks are thinning, one
by one they disappear.
And at each succeeding roll call, fewer
voices answer: "Herev'
Still their regiments are marching-many
march with noiseless tread.
And no bugles sound assembly" In the
bivouac of the dead.
Hats are reverently lifted to the heroes
lying here;
Lift them to the living heroes-hail them
all with cheer on cheer
Not for long will they be with us; soon
each regiment will be
Tented here beneath the blossoms OF the
land II helped to free.
But to-day the drums are muffled and the
flag at half-mast waves,
Keeping green dead heroes memories as
the grass above their graves.
Still another weary winter shrouded In the
snow they lay; .
Now we bring them crowns and garianus
of the loveliest blooms of May.
Let them rest in honbred slumber, while
their praise. from shore to shore,
Eighty millions throats are swelling-we
are free forevermorel

Sleeping, Not Dead.

Ye silent men, who to your country gave
The last full measure of devotion--life-
/ Ye fell asleep while the tumultuous
strife
Around yeu swelled in fury like the wave
Which breaks upon the rocks which prove
It's grave.
To-day. around you all the air is rife
With wailing cries from bugle and from
fife
The voice of that dear land you died to
save.
Nay, ye have never dled-ye live to-day
In every soul which joys that 1t is free;
Ia that fair flag with which the breezes
play.
With every flashing star undimmed, un-
lost;
In all our hearts. which clay like yours
shall be
Before our land forgets what freedom
cost,

"Some years ago." says Mr.. w. II.
Clark, printer, living at 612 Buchanan
street, Topeka, Kans., "I had bad at
tack of rheumatism and could not seem
to get over it. All sorts OF medicines
failed to do me any good and my trouble
kept getting worse. My feet were so
swollen that could not wear shoes and
had to go on crutches. The pain was
terrible.
Zone day was sotting the type of an.
article for the paper telling what DIR.
Williams Pink Pills had done for man
afflicted as I was and was so impressed
with it that / determined to give the
medicine trial. For a year my rheut
matism had been growing worse, but
after taking DIR. Williams Pink Pills I
began to improve. The pain and SWELL
ing all disappeared and can truthfully
say that haven t felt better in the past
could name, off hand, half-dozen peo-
pie who have used DIR. Williams Pink
Pills at my suggestion and who have re-
ceived good results from them"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are guaran-
teed to be safe and harmless to the most
delicate constitution. They contain no
morphine, opiate, narcotic, nor any
thing to cause q drug habit. They do not
act on the bowels but they actually make
new blood and strengthen the nerves.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills cure rheuma-
tism because they make rich, red blood
and no man or woman can have healthy
blood and rheumatism at the same tirae.
They have also cured many cases OF
anemia, neuralgia, sciatica, partial pa
ralysis, locomotor ataxia and other dis

Who was he? Never mind his name
At whose sound no memory starts:
He was but a private-his only fame
a tender place in our hearts.

Says all that we need to know

And little children win
Gather wild flowers TO deck his grave
