Fleetwood. Quatermaster of Frederick
Dougless Post and a Medal-of-Honor
man, presided over tie exercises.
Comrade Hunneman,l in presenting
the picture, gave brief history of the
Honorable Henry Wilson, to whom he
declared belonged the credit Of rails
ing the 22d Mass, and 80 Light Battery,
and accepted 9 Colonels compassion
from Gov. John A. Andrew anG toek
command of the I'd Regiment himself.
He declared that not one of the 2,0oo
men who served In that regiment but
recalled with pride the fact that he was
once commanded by Col Henry Wilson.
Comrade Zimmerman stated that 1t was
Henry Wilson who advised Abraham
Lincoln to make his first call for troops
for 300,0 instead of $4,000. He also
referred to the fact that Col. Henry
Wilson, as United States Senator.
procured the abolition of fogging in the
Army and raised the pay of the private
soldier from S11.00 a month to Sl3.OO,
and said that whether in military COM
mand or in the Senate Chamber he was
always the soldiers friend. Comrade
Zimmerman declared that Henry Wilson
possibly more than any other man
possessed the confidence of Abraham
Lincoln and Gov. Andrew, and that it
was after he had been a witness of the
disaster at Bull Run that he fastened
back to Massachusetts to organize the
ED Mass. He thought that in pre-
senting the picture of so noble SOL
der, statesman ard citizen to these
young men and women that the very
force of his example ought to spur
them on to higher efforts themselves
The other comrades of the committee
spoke in the same eulogistic vein of
the late Vice President Wilson.
Among the special guests of the af-
ternoon were Professor John It. lay
ton, superintendent of Music in the
the District, himself soldier as well
as singer; his wife, Mrs. Julia Mason
Layton, who is Secretary of the Depart
ment of the Potomac, Woman's Relief
Corps. serving her seventh term, and
Mrs. Isabel Worrell Ball, Past Depart
ment President. Both ladies were
called upon to address the pupils, and
both were roundly applauded for their
patriotic remarks. Mrs. Layton, who
mingles with her African blood large
proportion of Indian, is fine looking
woman and highly gifted with the elo-
quence of the Indians The exercises
were closed by the recitation in union
by the assembled school of a magnifi-
cent eulogy Of Henry Wilson. 1t was
perfectly done and reflected great credit
upon the teachers. The picture was
accepted by the Principal, Mr.. Felix
+. Wier, in a burst of rich oratory.
The closing hymn of America was led
by Prof. John T. Layton and was sung
with a richness of volume and tone
that did the soul good.
Comrade Zimmerman, who is Patri
otic Instructor of Henry Wilson Post.
served, first, in the Navy, and helped
in the blockading in Southeast and
Southwest Mississippi, on the U. S.
Ohio, Ethan Allen ana Guard. Later
he served in Co. G o. the 45th Mass.
He reenlisted in 1864 in Co. c. Sd L. $.
Art. He was wounded at Spotsylvania.
He was with the cavalry after the as
sassination of Lincoln.

Dates of the Congresses.

Editor National Tribune: VIII YOU
kindly explain how the date of any
Congress may be known? For example,
Gen. Thomas Rjchey, of Perry County,
Ohio, who sent the young man, Philip
II. Sheridan, to the u. S. Military
Academy at West Point, is said to have
been member of the goth and the 33d
Congresses.-R. ]. Black, Bremen, O.
The rule for ascertaining the year of
any given Congress is rather complicat-
ed. The Congresses are elected every
even year, and legally their life begins
with the 4th of March, the next odd
year, but they begin their first sessions
on the first month of the succeeding
December. There We're seven Congresses
elected in the 18th century, the seventh
beginning its session Dec. 7, 1901. Then
there would be SO Congresses elected
in the 18th. century, the 57th being
elected in 1900 and beginning its ses-
sion Dec. 2, 1901. Thus we can deduce
q rule of dividing the year by two and
adding seven to get the year in which
the Congress was elected, and the fol-
lowing year would be when 1t began It's
life. The 30th Congress was elected in
1647, and began its session Dec. 9,
1s4s; the 33d Congress was elected in
1852, and began It's session Dec. 6,

ed person on thirty days trial, that
they may know by actual experience
that by its aid the deafest person can
hear-can converse as those who are
not afflicted conserve and can enjoy
the theater and distinctly hear public
speakers.
The Electrophone is so sensitive that
the faintest sound is multiplied many
times in volume, so that the ear is made
to receive and properly record every
sound made.
The Electrophone is much more SEN
sitive and multiplies the sound great
deal more than any other device A
small transmtter gathers in the sound
and transmits it with greatly increased
volume to the ear, an electric device
accomplishing this result.
Most people who use the Electrophone
tell us 1T has greatly improved their
hearing and that it stopped their head
noises, and in many instances the nor
NAL hearing has been entirely restored
Just as the arms or legs shrivel and be-
come useless through the lack of exer-
else, the ear also fails through disuse
The Electrophone exercises the parts of
the ear, each to play its proper func-
ton, with the result the hearing is
greatly improved.
Thousands of these Instruments are
in use. No treatment of any kind Is
taken in connection with their use
If you are deaf or hard of hearing,
don't fail to send name and address on
this coupon. We will send you a list
of many responsible people who are
using the Electrophone. You are to
use the StolZ ElectrOphone thirty days
before you decide to keep it.

with their ears a trial treatment of this
new method absolutely free. We ad-
wise all people who have trouble with

in Memorial Hall, Springfield, in honor
of those comrades who died the past
year. Twenty-four vacant flag-draped
chairs were placed for the comrades
who have answered the last roll call,
and as their names were read by Adj't

simple. Each year as the audience
grows smaller the. service becomes in
creasingly impressive. They were
opened by singing of the Invisible

the address, and all sang "JcsGs, Lover
of My Soul" then came the benediction.

Act of May %, 19OS-Consiruction.
This pensioner under the act of Feb.
8. 1907. was dropped from the rolls and
his pension terminated on June 10.
1908, by reason of the passage of the
act of May 81, 1908, which prohibited
the allowance or payment after its date
of pension to any commissioned or war
rant officer or enlisted man in the Rev
Ienue-Cutter Service, either on the ac-
tive or retired list. and he was required
to refund the quarterly payment of PEN
sion that had been made to him on June
4, 1903.
Held: That said quarterly payment
of pension having been made to the
pensioner after the passage of the act
of May 81, 1908. prohibiting such pay
ment, was contrary to law. and the ac-
ton of the Bureau of Pensions in de-

r. s. A, with whom she lived in the
relation of husband and wife until his

Have the feathers well summed before

The tortilla is the ancient Indian
bread Of Mexico. Its only constituent
is Indian corn (maiZe), which the wo-
men soak in lime water until the ker-
nels are at the point of bursting, then
wash thoroly until it is free from lime,
when they grind it by rubbing it on a
large block of stone, specially cut for
the purpose, with smaller stone which
they hold in their hands.
The operation looks very much like
rubbing clothes on a washboard, and is
a laborious and tedious one. The line
renders the corn dough adhesive, like
wheat flour dough, and ii is easily pat
ted between the hands into cakes the
size and shape of an ordinary griddle
cake. and is baked upon a thin stone
griddle. Tho no salt or leaven is add
ed, fresh fortillas are exceedingly pal
atable.
The one other food mainstay is fri
Joles-ordinary beans. They are boiled
to mush, and with liberal quantity
of lard are warmed as required in
fiat earthen dish that answers for
frying pan. The very poor people do
not always have the luxury of frijoles,
and when they do have they cannot
always afford the lard.
A young woman who had suffered for
years WIN gastric TROUBLES was ADVISED
by her physicians to take olive oil three
times day.
AS the pure olive Oil was extremely
distasteful. she compromised by butter
ing her bread, shaking the salt and pep
per over it and then soaking it in
tablespoonful of pure olive oil. In this
way she easily swallowed the required
three tablespoonfuls.
In comparatively short time her
digestive troubles wholly disappeared,
tho she had stopped all medicines and
treatment save deep breathing, where
she used the abdominal muscles stead
lily and regularly for five minutes iat
time.
When oil is ordered incidentally it
will prove less distasteful if eaten on
cress or lettuce. At first little vinegar
may be taken, the amount gradually
reduced until the pure Oil can be eaten
without nausea.
