on the hillside overlooking the sneak
ers stand, Judge Hamilton spoke to
the Soldiers, the Woman's Relief
Corps and citizens,
Extracts from the patriotic sen.
fences of the speaker were: There
was a day when to love ones coun-
try was to lay down ones life and to-
day we are commemorating the
deeds and lives of those brave SOL
diers who have gone before.
1t is only fitting and appropriate
that memorial services be held in this
city as relatively speaking no other
city contributed more brave men to
the conflict of the civil war. And it
is also proper that these exercises
be held in the National Gods Acre."
The Womans Relief Corps and Sen
ator McManus are to be congratulate
ed on having had passed at the last
session of the Iowa legislature, a
bill appropriating $4,000 for the
known dead. 1t is the flag of the
nation that creates these higher in
fluences which we absorb
This day was originally instituted
by the members of the G. A. R. for
the commemoration of the soldiers
and sailors but is now day of mem
orial for all heroes of the republic.
Today. Decoration day. has become
one of educational value as we'll
as one of memorium. Whatever re-
calls to us that these services do, it
re-encourages our manhood. recalls
our better selves and makes us
ashamed of our daily indolences.
1t concerns the public that these
memorial services be but one of a
series of occasions. The fact that the
heroes of our country have shed their
blood in the veal and woe of the hui
man race should cause the same prin-
ciple of sacrifice to ever remain as
the Keystone of Americanism
When the Emancipation Proclama-
ton was issued, the battle SCARED
veterans Joined forces with a new
spirit and looked into each others
eyes with a new light and purpose
and the anthem, Mine Eyes Have
Seen the Glory of the Coming of the
Lord gave steadier hold to the bet
ter things in life which followed.
Referring to history of the ole
world recalling to mind historical in
cidents of the past centuries, the
speaker said that no Drawer men
have ever been heard of than those
who fought at Bunker Hill, suffered
at Valley Forge, marched with
Sherman or fought at Chicamaugua
and other battles Of the civil war.
We believe in the American sol
der because he was right and no de
jected armies canked their chains
as Sheridan with his troops marched
down the streets of Washington. This
day while we render tribute to the
memories of the dead heroes, the
best we can draw from their lives is
to live in sacrifice as they did TIC

The most successful remedy in this
country for the cure of all forms of
female complaints is Lydia E. Pink
HAMS Vegetable Compound.

used than any other remedy. 1t has
cured thousands of women who have
been troubled with displacements, in
flammation, liberation, fibroid tumors,
irregularities, periodic pains, backache,

and nervous prostration, after all other
means had failed. Why don't you try it?

the news that thousand men are

words adequate for thanksulness to
