BATTLE TAKES NAME FROM CHURCH
BY HowARD ENRIoHT SEXTON.

Early in the year 1862 the determination of the union command
ers to pierce the confederacy in the center led to a gunboat expedition
up the Tennessee river. In military parIance this was a scouting ex-
petition of the river navy to ascertain the chances of breaking the
confederate lines by capturing a point on the Memphis d Charleston
railroad.
high hill on the left bank of the river and a solid shot plunged into
the water among the boats. The leader returned the compliment with
a few shells that fired a building at the foot of the hill. AS the boats
returned a small party landed and captured the hostile gun. : They
learned that the place was called Pittsburg Landing; that it was a
shipping point for Corinth, Miss, and that two miles out was a little
log church called Shiloh. At the suggestion of Sherman, Gen. Smith
selected this as the point of concentration for the army to operate
full little church that sits demurey among its tall oaks on the Corinth
road. q [Es-4 &+tS IA4 <E& ~ = $3.50 @6sE- t< f&&1#Et1
In more than one respect the battle of Shiloh holds a unique po
siuon in the annals of great conflicts. For years the confederates,

the federals, who, although roughly handled, repealed the attacks OF
the enemy, could not think of that long and bloody Sunday without
humiliation.
Albert Sydney Johnston, who failed signaly in his design, was
exalted to a fame that shall live forever; Grant, who really won the
battle against odds, was in disgrace at its close and but for Lincoln's

BEST STOMACH
REMEDY FREE

It is an old saying that If the stom.
Ach is sound the whole body is safe,
because 81 much depends upon the
proper working of the stomach. Many
persons find themselves with a dis.
order OF the stomach which pro-
duces dyspepsia or a peculiar state OF
bili0usness.
If you suffer from both stomach trouble
and constipation you are on the way to a
very serious disease. From just such con-
ditions come appendicitis, rheumatism,
skin diseases and similar disorders, be-
cause the waste matter that should have
been dispelled from the system through
the bowels has found its way into the
blood and yitiated it. What is needed at
this point Is not simply a violent cathar-
tic tablet or salt, which usually does more
harm than good, but a gentle laxative
tonic like DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin,
which people have been using for these
ailments for nearly a quarter or a CEN
fury. 1t cured j. G.. Lanham, of Warrens-
burg, Mo-, Of stomach trouble of long
standing, also William Vol, of 903 Ellison
ST., Louisville, KY, who had the trouble
for fifteen years.
However, if you have stomach trouble
you want to know from personal expert
ence what DIR. CaldwelPS Syrup Pepsin
will do for you. If so, send your name to
the doctor and a free trial bottle will be
sent you. You are urged to send for the
free bottle, as the results from 1t will be
the best recommendation of DR.: Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin. Then you will do as
over two million people did last year-go
to your druggist and buy a REGULAR bottle
at so cents or 81, according to the size you
prefer. We could mention hundreds and
hundreds Of families lies who o, are never tes, With With,
some member of the family will need

NOT DRUGS

After using laxative and cathartic
medicines from childhood a case Of
chronic and apparently incurable con-
stipation yielded to the scientific food,
arape-Nuts, in a few days.
From early childhood I suffered
with such terrible constipation that I
had to use laxatives continuously 60
ing from one drug to another and suf-
fering more or less all the time.
"A prominent physician whom con-
suited told me the muscles of the d.
gestive organs were partially par
alyzed and could not perform their
work without help of some kind, so I
have tried at different times about
every laxative and cathartic known,
but found no help that was at all per-
manent. I had finally become discour-
aged and had given my case up as
hopeless when I began to use the pre-
digested food, Grape-Nuts.
although l had not expected this
food to help my trouble, to my great
surprise Grape-Nuts digested imme-
diately from the first and in a few
days / was convinced that this was
just what my system needed.

tions regularly and I am now COM
