duties. I tried different physicians but with
no relief, and also used many different pro
prietary medicines, spending almost fifty
dollars for these medicines alone. I then
succumbed to a siege of the grip in the
middle of winter, and was left in a much
worse condition. Mr kidneys were fear
fully disordered, ami my digestion became
very poor. 1 was indeed in a bad condition.
“A minister in conference learning of my
condition advised me to try Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills for Palo People. I had heard
much about the wonderful curative powers
of this medicine, but it was with reluctance
that 1 was finally persuaded to try it, as it
seeinod that nothing could do meunygood.
However, I procured three boxes of pills
and took them strictly according to direc
tions. By the time the last dose was taken
I wus almost cured, and in better health
than 1 had been for vears. 1 continued
using the pills awhile longer and was en
tirely cured. I can cheerfully recommend

* / Ah! what a sound
will rise, how wild and dreary,
■When the death-angel touches those
swift keys!
What loud lament and dismal Miserere
Will mingle with their awful sym
phonies!
I hear even now the Infinite fierce
chorus.
The cries of agony, the endless groan.
Which, through the ages that have
gone before us.
In long reverberations reach our own.
On helm nnd harness rings the Saxon
hammer,
Through Clmbrlc forest roars the
Norseman's song.
And loud, amid the universal clamor.
O’er distant deserts sounds the Tar
tar gong.
I hear tho Florentine, who from his
palace
Wheels out his battle bell with dread
ful din.
And Aztec priests upon their teoeallis
Beat the wild wur-druuis made of

The tumult of each sacked and burning
village;
The shout that every prayer for
mercy drowns;
The soldiers’ revels in the midst of pil
lage;
The wall of famine in beleaguered
towns;
The bursting shell, the gateway
wrench’d asunder.
The rattling musketry, the clashing
blade;
And ever and anon, in tones of thunder,
The diapason of the cannonade.
Is it. O man, with such discordant
noises.
With such accursed Instruments as
these,
Thou drownest Nature’s sweet and
kindly voices,
And jarrest the celestial harmonies?
Wore half the power, that fills the
world with terror.
Were half the wealth bestow’d on
camps and courts.
Given to redeem the human mind from
error,
There were no need of arsenals nor
forts.
The warrior’s name would be a name
abhorred!
And every nation, that should lift
again
Its hand against a brother, on its fore
head
Would wear for evermore the curse
of Cain!
Down the dark future, through long
generations.
The echoing sounds grow fainter and
then cease;
And like a bell, with solemn, sweet vi
brations,
I hear once more the voice of Christ
say ‘‘Peace!”
Teace! and no longer from its brazen
portals
The blast of war’s great organ shakes
the skies!
But beautiful as songs of the Immor

The holy melodies of love arise.
Lafayette Kissed Iler.
Mrs. Orson M. Taylor, whose funeral
was held this week, was a principal in
a pleasant incident that occurred dur
ing the last visit of Gen. Lafayette to
this country, says the New York Her
ald. She died at the age of 81 years.
Mrs. Taylor, having lived through ex
citing epochs of the nation’s history,
possessed a great deal of interesting in
formation about men and affairs during
the thirty years ending with the dose
of the civil war. Her most interesting
narrative, however, and the one she
took most pleasure in telling, related
to the occasion of Gen. Lafayette's visit
to the United States in 1824. Mrs. Tay
lor was Mary Ann White, daughter of
Charles Calvert White, a merchant in
Georgetown, D. C. She was 8 years old
when she was selected to present to
Gen. Lafayette a bouquet as a token
from the residents of Georgetown.
When the barouche in which the mar
quis rode with his son and President
Monroe passed her little Miss White,
mounted on a step.handed flowers to
the nation’s distinguished guest, where
upon Gen. Lafayette, after accepting
the bouquet, bent over and kissed the
child in acknowledgment of the token.
Mrs. Taylor was the mother of James
E. Taylor, an artist who made many
pictures during the war. Mr. Taylor
early in life, visited Georgetown and
sketched the surroundings of his moth
er’s home. With these sketches and
from descriptions of the visit of Gen.
Lafayette given by witnesses he paint
ed the scene in which his mother took
a prominent part. The woman had
lived in this city since 1866, residing
with her son. She had been interested
in various charitable and society
work*. She is survived by two sons
and a daughter. The children are Jas.
E. Taylor, whose painting “The Hattie
of Atlanta” and others nre well known
to soldiers; Richard L. Taylor of Ruth
erford, N. J., and Miss E. Augusta Tay

Fako “Generals” uml “Colonels."
As the various governors rodo by on
horseback in the Grant memorial day
parade, each in plain dress, but at
tended by a brilliant military staff, the
question was natural. What is the use
of all that? Why should the execu
tive of tho states of the union be or
ganized on the basis of sonorous titles
and gay uniforms? The national ex
ecutive Is simplicity itself In Its demo-
cratlc. nnpretentlousness. The execu
tives of the great American municipali
ties present themselves before the pul>-
lic with the dignity of quiet reticence.
Our state governors alone in American
public life swing out with a parade of
unrealities. If the governor of a state
were first of all a military officer, if the
states were primarily armed camps in
stead of citizens in business, then the
military staff would have reasonable
ness. As it is, this prancing and be-ti
tled staff is both irrational and absurd.
Tho efficiency of tlfose assistants of the
governor would be as great without uni
forms and unmeaning titles. The dig
nity of the state executive needs uo
bracing of a foolish imitation of a for
eign court to make it respected by the
people. The creation of fake “generals”
and “colonels” by a governor's pen,
hundreds of them a year, is rightly cx
aspf rating to the honored men to whom
those titles belong by service and devo
tion. That bronzed and keen soldier
of Japan, Prince Yamagata, when he
visited us a year ago. found these imi
tation colonels and generals, who wel
comed him for the state in their brave
uniforms, very amusing. They had nev
er smelled powder; most of them had
net even served as militiamen. What
is the use of them? They are ana
chronisms. Glitter does not harm, but
such unreality as the “military staff”
Is out of place in this day.—The Illus
trated American.
Saved by a Statue.
Houdon, the most distinguished
sculptor of France in the eighteenth
century, who executed the statue of
Washington which now stands in tho
state house at Richmond, Virginia, was
thrown into prison during the French
revolution. He was saved from the
guillotine by the tact of Barras, a mem
ber of the directory. The incident is
told in the Gentlewoman; Madame
Houdon. in despair, went to Barras,
and with streaming eyes implored his
assistance. Barras shook his head; he
feared he could do nothing. Houdon
was a man of genius and therefore as
David, a rival artist, was one of the
condemning judges, he feared there was
little chance for his salvation. Madame
Houdon refused to accept this opinion
as final, and used all the arts of which
an astute French lady is capable. Bar
ras at last asked her if her husband
bad any statue for sale at this time in
his studio. Madame replied that the
only finished statue at present in his
atelier was a figure of St. Scholastice,
holding a scroll of manuscript in her
hand. On hearing this, the wily Barras
rang the bell and said to his answering
secretary, “Monsieur Houdon has just
completed a splendid statue of ‘Phil
osophy Meditating on the Revolution.’
Haste and purchase this sublime work
of art, and have it placed in the As
sembly.” Barras’ orders were carried
out, with the result that not only was
the sculptor’s life spared, but he re
ceived more commissions for statues
than he was able to execute. On such
small issues did the lives of mea han?
in those tremendous times.
Oar HnslnesaUke Militia.
One of tbe reflections awakened by
the Grant day mobilization was on the
businesslike character of the militia.
The people saw with their own eyes
that the day of the “picnic-soldier” was
past. Odd and fantastic uniforms were
present to some extent and gave pi
quancy to the scene. But the fuss and
feathers were not anywhere near so
prominent a feature as they would have
been a dozen years ago. The nerveless
militia of 1877, who surrendered to riot
ers, have no place lu that body to-day.
A new spirit has taken possession of
the whole branch. The great armories
and their opportunities for fine drill,
the adoption of plainer uniforms, the
yearly encampments, the serious study
of the requirements of real service have
all combined to develop in the militia
men an ambition to rival the regular in
usefulness. There is no reason why he
should not. It was reassuring to com
pare the appearance and the marching
skill of these citizen troops with that of
the professionals. If they seemed
somewhat more self-conscious, their
alignment was In nowise inferior; In
many cases It was Indeed superior to
that of the regulars. They were clearly
a body of men who had taken up arms
in the serious spirit in which nowadays
all Americans take up the various
branches of skilled athletles, not for a
little fun but for the attainment of a
perfection of skill.—The Illustrated
American.
A Trumpeter's Courage.
During a French campaign in Africa
many brave deeds were done, but none
braver, perhaps, than Trumpeter E3eof
fier’s rescue of his captain. The Arabs
were pressing the cavalry of Captain
De Cott, and everything was in confus
ion, when De Cott’s horse was killed
under him and the capture of the of
ficer and the whole company seemed
inevitable. At that moment the trum
peter of the company leaped from his
horse and gave It to De Cott, saving:
“Take him. Your life is necessary;
mine is useless. You can rally the men.
It does not matter about my neck!’*
De Cott mounted the horse, rallied the
company and continued the fight.
Trumpeter Escoffler was taken prison
er, but the Arabs, who aders murage,
had witnessed the scene, and appreciat
ing the nobility of the man, treated him
with generosity. His trumpet was a
source of great entertainment to his
captors, who used often to make him
give the signals of the various military
movements. One day EscofUer gave the
whole repertorie with great gusto, fin
ishing up with an extended flourish.
“What was that?” asked tho Arab
chief.
“Ah!” said Eseoffler, “you will hecr
that soon, I hope. That is the signal
for a charge.”

“I have used Lydia E. Tinkham’s Vegetable
Compound and found it to be of great benefit to me. The doctors said I had
womb trouble. I had the headache all the time, also a terrible backache,
was nervous, cross and irritable. I looked so pale that people would ask me
what was the matter. 1 suffered in this way for about four years, until one
day about in despair my husband brought me a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound. I commenced its use, and much to. every one's sur
prise, it cured me. It has completely changed my disposition for the’better also.
Several of my neighbors, knowing what the Pinkham medicine has done for
