 Everybody knows that the failure of the Garrison continental army" plan which nearly all the experts from first last advocated the practicable system defeated of the opposition the National Guard The spokesmen of the Guard per suaded coerced congress to substitute their own or ganizaton proposed militia the double grounds that they deserved the hoonr and could fill the bill Having their object and made the nation de pendent them alone supplement the regular army, they sraighway found themselves in position to make good their claims And they must be regarded having failed and having dscredted the National Guard as a national military force.
 The unpreparedness of the militia organizations of various states when summoned for duty the Mexican border may be ignored condoned. There little preparation before the call was natural the that there should have been less confusion and neficency among the militia of fcers But it naturally assumed that the officers merely from motives of patriotism but in fufllment of their pledges and from desire to make good and justify the trust the nation had placed in them would have stuck d agreeable duty and made the best of it.

medicines are hard on weak stomachs.
To be able to eat what you want and
to digest it is priceless blessing. II
you have lost it do not be deceived by
the claims of predigested foods and
stomach tonics, so-called.
There is no tonic for the stomach
that is not tonic for every other part
OF the body. As the blood goes every-
where, an improvements in its condition
quickly results in strengthening weak
organs. Rich, red blood is absolutely
necessary to digestion. If your stomach
is weak and you are troubled with gas,
sour risings in the throat, feeling OF
pressure about the heart and palpita-
ton, try the tonic treatment with DR..
Williams Pink Pills.
So many dyspeptics have been helped
by this simple treatment that every suf-
ferer from stomach trouble should try it.
The DR.. Williams Medicine Co..
