From this modest beginning the national cemetery

having suggested the observance of Memorial day
in its present form Nowhere is there more i'm
pressive celebration of each recurring memorial
day than in the national cemeteries-located In
80 states and territories and in Old Mexico-even
though some of them be situated in localities
remote from large towns cities and none too

of the army, they saw a member of
the Sixth Massachusetts volunteers
being buried by the roadside. Baker
suggested that there should be in
every large city OF the country
cemetery owned and controlled by
the government for the burial of the
soldiers, and that the national gov
eminent should keep a record of all
interments. Baker thought SO well
of his suddenly conceived project
that he brought it to the attention
of Simon Cameron, then the secre-
tary of war. Cameron rejected the
plan, but Baker persisted in his eff
fort to enlist the interest of the
government and when Stanton sue
ceeded Cameron he approved the
suggestion and six acres of land in
the rear of the old Soldiers home in
Washington were set aside as a ma
tional cemetery
1t will be seen that this
is in reality the first ma
tional cemetery, although Gettys-
burg is commonly given credit as

mer, Sunbury. Pa. AT that time my
baby's face was like a raw and bleed
ing piece of meat Medicine from
three different physicians, besides va
rious salyes recommended by friends,
all seemed to make the Eczema worse.
Then another mother recommended
Resinol Ointment which procured at
once, although had no more faith In
1t than in the rest had tried; but
never did spend fifty cents to better
advantage. The first and second days
noticed a remarkable change, and
now at the end of the third week, my
pretty blue-eyed, rosy-cheeked baby is
perfectly well again. I think the cure
was surely something remarkable.
Resinol Ointment and Soap did In
three weeks what everything else
failed to do in four months. My baby
had been positively disfigured, now
his complexion is all right again"
Resinol Ointment cures all skin
troubles. from pimples to the most dis
figuring eruptions and rashes. The
first application stops the intense itch
ing of Eczema, itching Piles, Pruritus,

A sernhardt Trick.

Nine. Sarah Bernhard, who il sup
posed to be something of an artist as
well as an actress, was recently call
ed upon in one of her marvellous crea-
tons to enact the role of a sculptor,
and to model certain bust In view of
the audience. This fairly electrified
the critics. but when going into rhap-
sodies over the technical skill in ham
ding the clay which Nine. Bernhard
exhibited they showed that they knew
little of the artistic tricks OF actors
and actresses; as a matter of fact, she
does nothing of the kind. The bust
is modelled and baked, and over 1t is
placed damp clay of the same color
This the talented actress merely pulls
of, exposing the beautifully modelled
head underneath.
