 Chas. w. Bowman. First Lieutenant and Adjutant, 4th Nj. S. NJ. Cav. Va'e., writes from Lanham, Md, as follows:
 Though somewhat averse to patent medicines. and still more averse to be- coming a professional affidavit man, It seems only a plain duty in the present instance to add nay experience to the columns already written concerning the curative powers of Peruna.
 "I have been particularly benefited by its use for colds in the head and throat.

Of Petersburg Campaign In Whicn

general Oracle Figured. Elizabeth, (N. J.) Herald
 We publish the following interestins communication from Archibald Oracle Washington. D. C., hoping some sur viying members of the Ninth New ger aev Volunteers may see 1t and furnish hi mwjth the information he seeks.
 MT. Gracie's father resided in Eliza- beth previous to the Civil War. and ms views, regarding the "frrepressipie con, flict." strongly pronounced, are SUI remembered by our old citizens. It was at the terrible battle of Drewry Bluff, Va, May IS. 1884, that the Eil1a- beth members of the Ninth Regiment met General Oracle and his fierce Ala hamians for the first time during the war. and 1t was at the hands of Gen eral Oracle and his command on tna, fateful morning in May that Generai Heckman and myself and Company D. with a portion of Company G. or thls city were captured.
 During the summer the Ninth Regi- ment confronted Gracie's Alabamians in the trenches before Petersburg, ana if was while there that some member note enclosed by MT. Oracle to us.
 We publish below Mir. Gracie's let ter and the note:

 My Dear Sir-I know of you as dis tinguished veteran in Elizabeth, ana write to you for two purposes: Flrst' that you may know of the work m which I am engaged here, and secondly, to obtain possible information in con nection with the authorship of a note passed between the picket lines Of the two armies at Petersburg.

Posts and Conteo. crate organizations, also, copy or resolutions in behalf of a park at Pe- tersburg, which are being returned to me from all over the country, endorsed by the organizations referred to-. m New York and Brooklyn have received the endorsements of Hancock Post, Alexander Hamilton Post. U. s. Grant Post and others, and. expect the en- dorsements of all the posts in Greater New York.
 Under separate cover, I also send booklet descriptive of Petersburg.
 Attached to the copy of the note are a series of questions. I have left spaces for answers below. I have put 1t in this form for convenience.
 Before the war my father was living in Mobile. Alabama. where for several years he had been managing the nusi- ness of my grandfather. who had sent him there During this period he tvas captain of one of the crack volunteer companies of Mobile. Living in the South at this time, being In business there and being in the military service of the State, my grandfather wrote him a letter, which have. stating that his only course was to espouse the cause of his adopted State. My grandfather had his summer place in Elizabeth, as VOL may know. Our home city has al- ways been in New York, where l am the fourth of the name.

Revised Formula.

For number of years requests have come to me from multitude of grate- ful friends, urging that Peruna be giv- en slight laxative quality. I have been experimenting with a laxative addition for quite a length of time, and now feel gratified to announce to the friends of Pe-runa that have incor- porated sucb quality in the medicine which, in my opinion, can only enhance It's wellknown- beneficial character.

From the view point of the average
man housework is very easy. The wife
il right at home. She is her own mis-
tress. She can sit down and rest any
time. She can even 90 to bed for nap
if she feels like it. She can order her
household affairs just to suit her own
convenience. If she doesn't feel equal
to doing work to-day, she can do it
tomorrow. That's the beautiful theory
of the average man.
Just suppose the Egyptian task-mas-
tiers, when they made the required
daily tale of bricks tax the uttermost
of human strength, had said to the
toiling slaves, "Don't hurry, take
rest every now and then Z only don't
forget that your tale of bricks must
be all right at night or else there'l be
trouble"
There's the fact. There are the
days duties to be got through, and the
women who can rest may not. The
woman, who, when she married, said,
"NOw, I'll be my own Mistress" finds
herself q slave to household cares and
duties.
And OIL how much that woman
needs rest sometimes. She brushes and
scrubs, and rolls pastry, her temples
throbbing, her back aching, her nerves
quiveripg under the stress of pain.
What she would give if she could just
creep upstairs and throw herself ON the
bed in darkened room and rest.
Rest would temporarily relieve the
strain, doubtless, but it would be the
same story over again tomorrow. The
real need of weak, nervous women is
strength, and that need is fully met
and satisfied by DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. 1t makes weak women
strong and sick women well. 1t re-
moves the causes of women's weak
ness, tranquilizes and invigorates the
nerves, encourages the appetite and
induces restful sleep. "FavOrite Pre-
scription" is q positive cure for the
most complicated and obstinate cases
of leucorrhea, excessive flowing, pain
full menstruation, unnatural suppress
sions and Irregularities, prolapsus or
falling of the womb, weak back, "female
weakness" anteversiOn, retroversiOn,
bearing-down sensations, chronic con-
gestion, inflammation and liberation
of the womb, inflammation, pain and
tenderness of the ovaries, accompanied
with uinternal heat"
81 am pleased to add my testimony
in behalf of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription," writes Miss Earline Agard,
Chaplin, Patriotic Daughters of Amer
lea, Of 413H Michigan Avenue, Lansing,
Mich. III cannot find language to ex-
press my gratitude and joy over the
fact that am well once more. Wear
ing my corsets too tight seemed to have
