Our Heroes Sleep.
(By Id v. Charles Henry Armstrong. 1
Where k ti burn zephyrs softly blow
And warm, blue waters ebb and How,
There lie our heroes clad In lilue,
There re.;t their compeers robed In
Cray.
Ti North, to South, Ihey Haid,
"Adieu."
And, stern-browed warriors, sought
the fray,
'Where stately, plume,! palmctt.es
wave,
They-victor, vanquished found n
grave.
Within the Northland, old and gray,
Are ltlth and Mil who mourn today,
And, too, the Smith bewails her slain,
Enshrined for aye in lia'ls of Fame,
Ne'er shall their deeds of valor wane,
Nor North, nor South need blush in
shame,
For bravest Spa; tans, one and nil.
Were they who answered Duty's ca'l
lint there the pirn s their renui'ni sigh
licneat!) that smiling, sunlit sky.
Fast sleep old foemen side by side,
Their sabers justed, dulled and broke,
And ne'er the bugler bids them ride.
And ne'er they charge through shot
and smoke;
la Tysiun fluids their tents gleam
now,
And laurels crowned each manly brow.
May gentle Pence, forevermore,
Serenely, rule Columbia's' shore,
tine Cod, one hope our country's
weal
Our hearts cement and hands unite.
In that P.eyond "the laud of leal"
Our "tost" we greet, in fadeless while;
lint nsw swent shall kiss their
graves .
The while "Old Glory" proudly waves!

Memorial Day at National Cemetery.
Hon. William A. Northcott, lieuten
ant governor of the state, was in Cairo
last evening a guest at The Halliday
en mute home to Springfield from
Mound City, where he addressed a
great throng at the National Ceme
tery yesterday. Memorial Day.
The National Cemetery never was
mere IieaulllUl man yesieniay wiirn,
the clear sunshine filtered through the
great trees on the headstones of thou-1
nands of dead soldiers who many
years ago, most of them as young
men, gave proof of their allegiance to
home and country by sacrificing life
Itself. Not one who heard the address
of Mr. Northeott failed to feel a deep :
Imiirer.sinn of the true meaning of.
Memorial Day.
Preceding the address there was a
parade from Mound City to the ceme
tery In which the various lodges of
the town, the Mound City 'and Car
rier Mills hands and a large number of
citizens in cariiages and on foot were
in line.
The perfect weather made the day
one of unusual attractions and ounce
was In the very air.

"Charles 15. .Tamos Iar Sir: It
has now been some time since I lelt
your Sanatorium, when) I took treat
ment for Whiskey Habit. I wish to
state that I now have nn desire for
whiskey, anil my general health Ii
much improve.! in every respect. I
sleep good, jenjoy a good appetite, and
my digestion is all right. I haven't
lost a day from work sinee. I returned
home. I think the thing for a man to
do, when he finds he has to have
whiskey to feel good, is to go to your
Sanatorium and take the treatment.
He will find the amount he spends t r
treatment the best investment h?
ever made. I ne party wno waiun
nriees on home treatment decided he
would quit without aid. but I notice
he Is still drinking, and I think he
will either order Home Treatment or
go to the Sanatorium soon. Give mv
. best regards to all connec ted w ith
the Sanatorium. With best wishes fi r
j vourself and the Sanatorium. I am,
'yoirs truly, G. W. WILLIAMS."
