quarters of social life of the aristo-
cratic society created by officers of the
old Seventh United States Cavalry,

Grant was a guest when the golden

railroad linked the transcontinental
line. General Sherman and Genera,
Sheridan had been guests there. The
name of Theodore Roosevelt had ap.

the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and a general decline in health.
