The Statue Of Liberty.

The Statue of Liberty Enlight-
ening the World which stands in
New York harbor was presented
to the United States by citizens
of France, not by the govern
ment, the funds for it being
raised by private contribution,
and the work done by French
artist. 1t was several years in
preparation. In March, 1877,
congress passed a resolution au-
thorizing the President of the
United States to accept the gift
when it should be offered, and
designate a spot for it's erection.
The President was further auth
orized Ito cause suitable regula-
tions to be made for the future
maintenance of the statue as a
beacon, and for the permanent
care and preservation thereof as
a monument of art and the con-
tinued good will of the great ma
ton which aided us in our strug-
gle for freedom, The statue
when completed was presented
on the Fourth of July. 1884, to
the United States minister to
France, and in 1886 President
Cleveland suggested September3 3
as the day of its formal accept
ance. The date named YVES the
anniversary of the signing of the
treaty of peace at Paris by which
the independence of the United
States was recognized. Presi-
dent Cleveland said in his annual
message of December, 1886: The
sympathy between the people OF
the United States and France,
born during our colonial stru :gle
for independence, and continu-
ing today, has received a fresh
impulse in the successful compile
ton and dedication of the colos-
sal statue of Liberty Enlighten-
ing the World in New York har-
bor-the gift of Frenchmsn te
Americans"

Everybody who is afflicted with

Sloan's Liniment. Do not rub it.
Sloan's penetrates almost lmme-
diately right to the seat of pain,
relieving the hot, tender, swol-
len feeling and making the part
easy and comfortable. Get a bot
tie of Sloan's Lihiment for 25
cents of any druggist and have it
in the house against colds. sore
and swollen joints, rheumatism.
