This time they succeeded in beating off Sheridan's cavalry and pushed on another stage toward Lynchburg.

There is a certain fixed relation between the height and the weight which is reckoned on by insurance companies in their estimate of risks. and any marked variation from the scale means rejection for the applicant. Are you losing flesh? Begin the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It cures diseases of the stomach and organs of digestion and nutrition, increases the supply of pure, rich blood, and so builds up the body into sound health. A gain in weight, by the addition of good, sound strength.

They will not understand how we were overwhelmed by num- | bers. But that is not the question. The | question is, Is it right to surrender? If it is right then I will take all the re- sponsibility.” The note brought under flag of truce | to the Federal lines was General Lee's | reply to an earlier communication from General Grant. The proposition had been made and accepted for a suspen- sion of hostilities pending negotiations looking to the surrender of Lee's army. | During the interval occupied by these arrangements a stately. gray bearded Federal officer approached Colonel El- lingham, who had been sent by Gen- eral Gordon with the flag of truce, and | drawing something—doubtless a doeu- | ment—from his side pocket said: “Clolonel, I have been requested while | waiting to extend te you the courtesies | of this side of the line"—at the same time proffering the supposed document, which proved to be a silver flask.
