WHAT SclAIIcA IS

There is something terrifying about the
word sciatica. Yet sciatica is nothing
but neuralgia of the sciatic nerve and
neuralgia is an Inflammation caused by
lack of nourishment.
Application of dry heat Is hot sand
bags or flannel to the course Of the in
famed nerve often auiets the pain but it
does not feed the nerve. It's temporary
relief, . good thing to know about, but
not q remedy.
What causes the nerve starvation that
results in neuralgia and sciatica and how
may it be corrected?
The most common cause Is . rundown
physical system and a frequent exciting
cause is exposure to cold. Thin blood is
often at fault. It is through the blood
that the nerves get their nourishment.
Mortal man knows of no other way OF
getting nourishment to a nerve. There
fore, when the blood gets thin and fnila
to feed the nerves they show their resent
ment by becoming inflamed. Try DR..
Williams Pink Pills at this stage and
see how the Inflammation subsidies rs the
enriched blood carries to, the starved
nerves the elements they need.

become a realization. .
Twentv wears after the Civil war Grant while
ON his diving bed said: 1.-THE greatest general
who ever lived was Robert d. Lee. IL diu not
take Grant twenty years to realize the greatness
of Lee; he had been brought to a full realization
of this fact early In May, 1854 when their armies
met In the Wilderness.
On the thirtieth of May, in 1854 the attention
of the people both in the North and the South
was centered on this one man. Note the situa-
ton or rather the events of the preceding year
which had led up to this situation. On the thir-
tieth of May 1863, the Army of Northern Vlr-
ginia, under command of Lee, was on its march
to invade Pennsylvania. few days later the
Union soldiers gained two of the most important
victories of the war, one at Vicksburg. one at
Gettysburg.
On this thirtieth of May we ind Lee still keep
ing guard of Richmond. Grant. who soon after
his victory at Vicksburg had been called to
Washington, had been appointed lieutenant gen.
eral of the Union army. ION to Richmond! had
at once become the war cry Of his soldiers. With
in the month of May Grants army had been re-
pulsed three times by the Army of Northern vir-
ginia-at the Wilderness, Spotsylvania, North
Anna Four days later, Cold Harbor! The same
result. Lee still keeping guard The word re-
ceived at Washington was Victory" But victory
at such cost Thousands of the Unions best
soldiers lost!
Such was the situation on this day in 1864.
No other thirtieth of May had been as serious as
this one. At the white House Of the Confed
eracy," Richmond, there was feeling of tenn.
porary security. In Washington there was dis
couragement.
On the thirtieth Of May, in 1865. the war for
Union had ended. The day before President
Johnson had issued his proclamation of amnesty,
in which he pardoned all who had taken part In
the rebellion condition that they would sub
scribe to an oath of allegiance to the United
States and accept the reSults of the war, includ-
ing the emancipation Of the slaves. The signing
Of this oath by Confederate soldiers on this day
was the first formal step in the reunitinC of the
sites of the Union.
