Once or twice a year the good house- wife has a thorough house cleaning. The house has been swept and dusted every day in the year, but the housewife knows it in spite of vigilance dust accumu- lates in cracks and ecorners, and is only to be removed by special effort. It’s the same way with the body. You look after it every day. You take all the ordinary precautions of cleanliness and health. Vet the body needs its special cleaning to rid it of the accumu- lations of waste and poisonous matter which invite disease. ~Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, taken regu- 1z once or twice a year, would save many a sickness. It purifies the blood, strengthens the stomach, and cleanses the body of poisonous accumulations. “Last spring I had a severe attack of pneu- monia, which left me with a bad cough, and also left my lungs in a very bad condition.” writss John M. Russell, Eeq., of Brent, Cherokee Nat., Ind. Ter. I had no appetite and was so weak I could scarcely walk, My breast was all sore with running sores. I gottwo bottles Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, which I believe saved my life. I cannot express my gratitude to you.

Wehser, the only rel- atives of the dead soldier in this part of the country. Following them were the members of Court Palo Alta, For of America, and the firing squad of four- teen men from Company Minnesota Volunteers. Numerous friends and spectators crowded around the grave to witness the ceremonies. The casket was deposited on some sur. rts above the grave. Chief Ranger L. F Pinkson of Court Palo Alto read the beautiful funeral service of the order and on concluding “With the leaves of the forest we leave you,” deposited an ever- green on the 11d of the coffin. Dr. Levy then took up his position at the head of the grave and solemnly read the nineteenth Psalm. At the conclusion of the reading, the rabbl delivered a fouching eulogy on the heroic soldier Whom he personally knew in life and to Whom he paid a beautiful tribute in death. Above the quiet of the cemetery Tose the voice of the speaker and as his eloquent and pathetic words of pralse were heard by those surrounding the grave, many wept.

The Thirtieth will not remain long, for it is booked to sail for Manila on the transport Sherman, which is to leave September 21. It was the intention to send the Sherman away on the Isth, but repairs have delayed her until the 21st, and the Thirty-first Regiment, which was to have salled on the Sherman, has been assigned to the Grant, which will leave September 18. The Twenty-seventh, | which is also awaiting transportation, will be divided between the steamer Tacoma | and the George W. Elder. The Tacoma the 20th.

Ware, now iting the decision of the retiring rd that has considered his case, has been relieved from duty at the Presidio ing goods | and has been ordered to proceed to Beni- cla Barracks to await the outcome of the board's investigations.

Ware has been doing no duty since the board was calied to consider his retire- ment. Captain Walter B. Elliott, Fortieth In- fantry, has been ordered to proceed to the Presidio to assist in the organization of the battalion of the Fortieth to be re- cruited there. Captain Ja J.
