The most advanced medical science knows no better agents for the cure of all such diseases than are happily and hnrmoniously combined in this widely tanned Prescription" of Dr. Pierce.
 You can't afford to accept any secret nostrum ot unknown composition and of questionable merit as substitute for this professionally endorsed and time tested remedy or KNOWN COMPOSITION, Simply that some unprincipled dealer may make a little larger profit.

 As to pr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery it has a very large range of application, yet it is by no means rec ommended as a uCure-All.'

1909 LINCOLN 1909

The Centennial Anniversary of this
birth OF Abraham Lincoln will occur
next year, and Ii is now time for Grand
Army Posts, WOmanis Relief Corps and
all other patriotic organizations and So
cieties, which may have been formed
having similar ends in view, to begin
preparations for the purpose of fifty cele-
brating that important event.
Osborn III. Oldroyd. whose residence is
now in the same house in which Lincoln
died at Washington, ID. c., has prepared
an appropriate service to commemorate
that occasion.
The program. containing some 20 num-
bers, consists of songs. recitatiOns and
four articles covering the different
phases of Lincolns life. 1t is a 2O-page
illustrated pamphlet. printed on good
paper and in attractive style. The price
of this edition. or compilation, has been
placed at 10 cents per copy, 81 Dcr dozen
or $5 per 100. 1t seems impossible that
there can exist a single Post or Corps
that could not subscribe for and easily
dispose of at least 100 copies of this pro-
duction, and thus make profit of an
amount equal to purchase price. besides
serving as an educator to the people
upon the true greatness of the character
of Abraham Lincoln. Orders sent, pre-
paid, on receipt of price.

Presidents proposition if the people

In connection with the New York
Senatorship the opinion has been ex-
pressed in a high quarter that Mr.. Root
would not place himself in the position
of seeking the Office, but that he would
accept the honor if the Republican
members of the Legislature should
show themselves disposed voluntarily
and with substantial unanimity to elect
him.
After resting for nearly 100 years in
a grave practically unknown, the bones
of Gen. James McCubbin Lingan, SOL
der. politician, hero and man of af-
fairs. who was at the time of his death
distinguished man. were placed last
week in their final resting place in the
Arlington National Cemetery.
Few at the services realized that
they were paying their respects to one
who during the Revolutionary War
could have sold his honor to the British
as Benedict Arnold did, and was Of
fered Generalship and wealth If he
would join the Kings army. He re-
fused, and said he would rot first
Gen. Lingan was born in Hartford
County. Md, Nay 81, 1861. and came
of distinguished English and Scotch
ancestry. His American forefathers
were identified with Maryland history
as early as 1857.
After the battle of Lexington young
Lingan, who was working in George
town, resigned his position to enlist,
and on July 13, 1776, at the battle of
Fort Washington, he was seriously In
jured and captured. On that day he
was promoted to the Captaincy. On
Nov. 16, 1776, he was sent to the prison
ship Jersey.
It was on board the Jersey that Ad-
miral Hood. of the British navy, came
to Gen. Lingan offering him liberty,
wealth and rank If he would forsake
the American cause. The young officer

The question of additional fleet col
liers, with a cargo capacity of 1880
tons each, of the type of which two
will soon be laid down-one at pri-
vate yard and one at the navy yard,
Mare Island, Cal.-will also be brought
to the attention of Congress. 1t is esti-
mated that five such Golfers, three in
addition to the two soon to be under
way. would be sufficient to carry fuel
for a fleet of 20 battleships and thus
double the radius of action of such a
command. 1t is likely that recon-
mendations for additional golfers will
be linked with those for battleships.
Mr. John c. Cummings. Of Kansas
City, blew into Washington Monday
night and talked for print. and showed
just how much a layman really knew of
the political situation. He said:
81 am confident Bryan will have a
greater majority than in 1896, which
was $4,000. I believe the entire Demo-
cratic State ticket will be elected, and
that the Democrats will control the
Legislature and elect a Democratic
United States Senator, and that we will
elect more Democratic County officers
than we ever had before in the history
OF the State. We will also elect a
majority of the eight Congressman"
Kansas Republicans elected every
thing.

refused. At the close of the war Wash
ington appointed him Collector of the

chased property there, and named two
of his estates after the battles in which
he had Capitalization and Middle

On July %, 1912, a mob attacked the
Office of the Federal Republican in Bal

1t Is rare occurrence that a civilian
appointee who passes the examination
for commission as Second Lieutenant
in the Army refuses TO accept his COM
mission, but this is the case of Bright
Marston, who was recently appointed
to the infantry. A recent appointment
was issued to him in the regular form,
and he was called upon to file his ac-
ceptance. 1t then appeared that he
had married since his examination, and
he indicated that, if it were not for his
marriage, which he understood to be
prohibited by General orders, he would
accept the commission. AS the mar
riage constituted no bar to his appoint
ment to a military Office, the young man
was so informed. Then the War De-
partment was surprised at the receipt
of his declination to accept the commits
sion.

Another case of heroism which has
been lately brought to the attention of
the officials is that Of Private Walter
Calf, recruit. enlisted in the Marine
Corps at Chicago, in September last.
He was on his way from the recruiting
station in that city to the Marine Bar
racks at Brooklyn, N. Y. when the
Chicago and New York train, on the
Erie Railroad, upon which he was trav-
cling, was wrecked nine miles from
Meadville, Pa, at 2 O'clock on the
morning of Sept. 13. Private Calf es-
capped without injury, and Immediately
entered into the work. Of rascuine in
jured passengers. His Conduct was re-
ported to the Marine Corps Officials by
a fellow-passenger, John Dewar. Of
Pittsburg. Mr.. Dewar said. in a letter
to the commanding officer OF marines
at the Brooklyn Navy Yard:
Il was quickly Joined by four men,
one OF them young man, Walter Calf
by name VINO proved himself a hero.
with exceptonai coolness and totally
dkregarding ms personal safety, he led
the rescuing party into the body of the
wreck by tunneling, bringing out the
different ones, some in a Terrible condi-
ton. Taking the time and situation
into consideration. ACCOMMODATING a dis
aster OF this character. mis- general
behavior marks him a man equal to
the emergency"
Private Gait was sent commendatory
letters by the Commandant of the Ma
rine Corps and by the general passenger
agent of the Erie Railroad. and all the
correspondence in the case has been
placed on his record at the headquar-
ters of the Marine Corps.

sued for the removal of the remains of
several Indians from Fort Yates to

Indians this would disturb the peace of
the departed ones in their enjoyment
of the happy hunting grounds. Friends
of Sitting Bull raised such a protest
that the order was rescinded as far as
his remains are concerned. Fourteen
other bodies were taken to Keokuk.
