A PATRIOTIC RECOMPENsE.

Thomas F. Logan in Leslie's.
No incident in recent years has
more clearly demonstrated the COM
plete unity Of North and South and
the brotherhood that has replaced the
bitterness of the Civil War than the
appearance not long ago OF Senator
Henry A DUPONT upon the platform in
the college hall of the Virginia Mill
tary Institute of Lexington, Va, to
make the annual address and present
the medals 10 the graduating students.
The senior Senator of Delaware was
invited to make the address largely
as a result of his success In putting
through Congress the bill which ap-
propriated 100000 to reimburse The
institute for the damage and destruc-
tion of its library. scientific apparatus
and the quarters of its professors in
June. 1864. "by the military authority
of the United States" Senator du-
Pont. who introduced the bill 10 re-
imburse the institute and whose abil-
ity and earnestness brought about its
enactment in the face of many OBJ
sacles. was chief of artillery Of Gen
eral Hunters command which was
operating in the valley and took pos
session of Lexington on the eleventh
of June, 1864. BY order Of Gen.
Hunter, he was to direct his artillery
fire upon the institute. 81 was very
much opposed to the destruction Of
the institute buildings" Senator du-
Pont said TO the Senate Committee
on Claims which considered his bill.
"as I thought Il was a wholly I'M
necessary destruction Of private prop
erty and not justified by the rules OF
war, excepting so far 'as the destruc-
tion Of the cadet barracks was con-
cerned. remember, among others,
that the late President Mckinley. who
was there, being one of the staff ofi-
GERS. expressed the same views

WHAT Greater Credit SHOULD
Be Given Than when An
Innocent Child IS HELPED
Mr.. Leopold Sptzkopf, Prominent New Jersey Citizen,
Highly Praises Where Praise is Due

In an interview with the Herbal
Lax-a-Tone man at Miller Drug Store,
he said: "I have a testimonial here
from a man that is well known not
only in Wilmington but also in New
York and New Jersey. He speaks in
behalf OF his little daughter five years
old. I have contended that Herbal
Lax-a-Tone is harmless even TO lit
tie child, and can be used by the young
as we'll as the aged, and the helping
OF a child also proves another point
that it is not psychological or imagi-
nation. Mr.. Spitzkopf says that for a
long time his little girl has been all
ing and did not seem to get along the
way she should. seemed nervous an4
had sour stomach and fretful. He had
used Lax-a-Tone himself and had re-
ceived such wonderful results that he
thought he would try it on the baby.
and now says that he is very thankful
that he did. as the child has improved
so much that YOU would hardly recOg-
nize her. and Mr.. Spitzkopf wants the
public to know just what a wonder-
full remedy this is. Mr.. Spitzkopf is
