The Grim General in Battle. | In one sense General Forrest's | personal daring was a fault in him as a commander, for his life was too precious tobe risked on every oc-| casion. but it served him as it served | Skobeleff. He led his men always, and that would be the most arrant i coward on earth who wouldn't fol-; low such a leader. Forrest's face would fairly blaze as he rode out to the head of the column, snd when he drew his sabre and lifted his of war on horseback. He was personally, as well as in military army. His men not only knew that he was taking every chance that they did, but they had implicit confidence in his ability to do whatever he un- dertook. He had the dash of a grey- hound and the stubbornness of a bulldog. His mind was clearest. and his judgment most correct in the face of asudden and unexpected danger. His decision was taken on the mo- ment, and he acted with equal quick- ness. Nothing chafed him so much as delay in the execution of his or- ders, and the officer who was re- sponsible for it had to make a mighty clear showing. He would break a colonel as quick ashe would order a private to the guard house. Nothing less than absolute obe- dience would suit him, and he did not think a coward had a right to live. The sight of him in action was inspiration; it made heroes of the brave and shamed skulkers back to their duty. He did not draw the love of his men as Cleburne did, but they had an awful respect for him and thought him incapable of making a mistake.

Caneer is hereditary in my family, as an aunt on each side having died from this dreadful disease. In each instance the cancer was located iden- tically the same position that mine first made its appearance—just be- low the left eye and extending down the left cheek bone and nose. I was attended by the best physicians, but the case continued to grow worse under their treatment, and no hope of a cure could be given by them; they said: “I had better have my af- fairs for this life and the next ar- ranged, for the cancer was liable to strike a vital organ at any moment, and at once bleed me to death. About this time, 1886, I met with Mr. Shirley, living near Due West, whose cancer was rapidly cured by using Swift’s Specific (S. S. S.) I then gave up the doctors and all medicines I had heretofore been using. and commenced taking S. S.
