expended than 100000. had acquired 600
acres of land and erected more than three hun
dred monuments when in 1895 the congress OF
the United States provided for the establishment
of Gettysburg National park and placed it under
the direction of the secretary of war
magnificent park has now been constructed
which encloses the widest limits of the battle
field and the erection of memorials and markers

than four hundred memorial shafts and
tablets and than thousand markers
have been up at a cost aggregating several
million dollars. When the present scheme of
roadways is completed there will be between 100
and $50 miles of fine macadamized highway ex-
tending to every of the battlefield, while five
iron observation towers on various parts of the
field enable sightseers to enjoy the birds-eye
views which are helpful in enabling one to
understand the movements of the opposing forces
that made up the far-fung battle line.
The cemetery, in dedicating which Abraham
Lincoln delivered the immortal address familiar
to every American, originally contained the bodies
of 1855 soldiers removed from all parts of the
field where they had been hastily buried. The
number of graves has been greatly increased since
that date and there is yet ample space for the
veterans who may desire to rest at the scene
of the supreme struggle between the Union and
the Confederacy. One of the features OF the
national cemetery is the ivy-clad rostrum-a
memorial shrine for the dead who sleep around
it and which is used for the exercises held each
Memorial day.
The battle of Gettysburg is of such compare
lively recent date that vivid reminders of it are
occupied as headquarters by Generals Meade and
Lee respectively yet standing in an excellent
state of preservation; the earthworks on Gene
terry hill are yet intact Culp's hill still holds its
bullet-scarred trees and the bullet-marked boul-

rate restoration of those portions of the field

of a very simple character and there are not as

The audience which faces president other

the distinguished orator. 1t is an assemblage

ECZEMA BROKE OUT ON BABY

when my baby was two months
old, she had eczema and rash very
badly. 1 noticed that her face and
body broke out very suddenly, thick,
and red as a coal of fire. l did not
know what to do. The doctor ordered
CASTLE soap and powders, but they
did no good. She would scratch, as
1t itched, and she cried, and did not
sleep for more than a week. One
day 1 saw in the paper the advertise
ment of the Cuticura Soap and Cuti-
cura Ointment, SO 1 got them and
tried them at once. My baby's face
was as a cake of sores.
when / first used the Cuticura
Soap and Cuticura Ointment, 1 could
see a difference. In color it was red
der. I continued with them. My
baby was in a terrible condition. I
used the Cuticura Remedies (Soap
and Ointment) four times a day, and
in two weeks she was quite well. The
Cuticura Remedies healed her skin
perfectly, and her skin is now pretty
and fine through using them. I also
use the Cuticura Soap today, and will
continue to, for it makes a lovely
skin. Every mother should use the

officers were then reelected by the
directors as follows: DIR. J. A. Du-
