WHAT WAS THE DATE
OF GRANTS BIRTHDAY?
One Publication says April go, Grants
Memoirs, the 9th Day Of April
as His Natal Day.

When was General Ulysses s.
Grants birthday?
In an article published in this paper
last evening. the date of the birth OF
the warrior and eighteenth president
of the United States was given the date
of his birth as April 18th, 1922. The
history of Lee county gives the date
Of his birth as the 29th day of April
and the Britannica and Grants Me-
moirs give the date as the 9th.
Which is right?
Following is a letter received this
morning from J. H. D. Chenoweth re-
garding the matter:
Keokuk, Iowa, April so, 1909.
Editor Gate City:
Yesterdays Gate City contained an
article commorative of General Grants
birthday, stating he was born on April
29th. Is not this an error? A history
of Lee county published about 1857
gives the 10Th as the date of his birth.
The Britannica and Grants Memoirs
gives the 9th as the date he was born.
For the benefit of our youth the cor
rect date should be given.
Very respectfully,

DO YOU HAVE
RHEUMATISM?
And Are You Satisfied With
the Treatment You Have
Had?
If Not, Read This Evidence and
Learn How VOC Can Cure
Yourself.

The latest scientific works state that
the ordinary medical treatments of
rheumatism are still far from satisfac-
tory. For this reason sufferers from
rheumatism will be interested in the
success which DR.. Williams Pink Pills
have had in curing this painful disease.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills have cured
hundreds of cases, and are the most
direct treatment of rheumatism, be-
cause they drive its poisons out of the
blood. That rheumatism is a disease
of the blood is shown by the fact that
it is hereditary in certain families, and
that there is marked thinning of the
blood Immediately following its attack.
Mrs. WV. Radtke, of No. 1921 Biddle
street, St. Louis, Mo-, says:

| matism for about seven years and found
