Not a Sick Day Since.
'•I was taken severly sick with kidney
trouble. I tried all sorts of medicines,
none of which relieved me. One day I
saw an ad. of your Electric Hitters and
determined to try that. After taking a
few doses I felt relieved, and soon there
after was entirely cured, and have not
seen a sick day since. Neighbors of
mine have been cured of Rheumatism,
Neuraigia, Liver and Kidney troubles
and General Debility," This is what 15.

A STIRRING ADVENTURE.
Thrilling Rescue of White Maiden
fram Marauding Indians.
fCopyrisht 1303 >jy American Fre»s Afpoclatlon.l
Tho volume of adventure along the
West Virginia and Ohio border con
tains some of the most thrilling chap
ters one could possibly imagine. In
deed, they are more interesting tha-i
the writings of even the most fervH
makers of the fiction of adventure.
Famous among the names immor
talized along the old frontier is th:it
of Lewis Wetzel. His life was fillei 1
with most dangerous and startling
events, which today read as if th<-;
were less probable than the greater
part of the Action which is so popular.
Here is one of the chapters of his ca
reer, which serves to show that the
strenuous life is no modern invention
On one occasion Wetzel set out from
his home togo on an extensive hunt
ing expedition. While passing through
the forests he fell in with a young
friend, who invited him togo home
with him to his cabin. Wetzel ac
cepted the Invitation and they started.
On coming to the site of the young
man's home they were horrified to
find the cabin in ashes and the family
all murdered and scalped except one
girl, who had been reared with the
children of the home, and with whom
the young man was deeply in love
Examination of the trail showed that
she had been carried off captive. It
also revealed the fact that the maraud
ers were three Indians and a white
renegade.
The two sorrowful but deeply an
gered hunters set out on the trail,
and in course of time caught up with
the fugitives. They found them at
their ease on the bank of a creek, the
girl uninjured but crushed with grief
over the loss of her friends and ap
prehensive as to her own fate. With
a lover's impetuosity the young man
was for Immediately rushing in and
trying to rescue her, but Wetzel's
cooler judgment restrained him and
they wafted till daylight should comr
In the morning they marked a man
each and at the first fire the renegad*
and one of the Indians were killed.
The other two Indians sprang into the
woods. Wetzel turned his attention
to them, while the young man. with
drawn knife, leaped into loose the
bonds of hfs sweetheart. Wetzel fired
his rifle as a trick, and the two red
skins fell into the trap and gave chas«
to him. But he was a master hand at
loading as he ran.and at a most un
expected moment he suddenly turned
and killed his foremost pursuer. Sure
of his prey the other Indian redouble - !
his energy of pursuit, but before ha
could get close enough Wetzel played
him tho same trick and killed him
also. Then taking the scalps of all
four of the villains who had devastat
ed the pioneer's home, the two aven
gers took the lad's sweetheart and re
turned to the settlement, where a
shelter was found for her.
It is to be hoped that this tragic ro
mance ended with wedding bolls.

GENERAL MORGAN'S LASHES.
Retaliates In Revolution for Whipping
Received in Braddock'a Army.
[Copyright IJXW by American Aatoojullon.j
One of the most famous and effec
tive orf the American commanders of
the Revolutionary days was General
Daniel Morgan, whose corps of Border
Riflemen, dressed in the picturesque
uniform of the frontiersman and scout,
were able to make a fine record for
service. The idea of organizing such
a body of troopers came to General
Morgan as the result of his forme
service during the French and Indian
war on the frontier. Morgan was a
man of splendid physique. He was of
no especial promise in his younger
days, being only one of the groat num
ber of possible great men who wer<3
scattered along the colonial borders
waiting for the favorable opportunity
which was to bring them out and de
velop their genius.
Morgan was employed as a team
ster in Braddock's army, but where he
was at the climax of that sorrowful
march does not appear. During hi-?
early life, and probably while engaged
in this service, he had an experience
which he remembered as long as he
lived. The story has been told In sev
eral forms and with a variety of em
bellishments, but there is no doubt as
to its essential correctness. It Is to
the effect that for some real or fan
cied offense Morgan came under the
rigorous discipline of the army and
was punished with a great number of
lashes with the cat across his bare
back. According to one version he
fainted under the severity of the pun
ishment. Whatever may be the cor
rect account, it is certain that during
the Revolution General Morgan more
than got even with the British army
in the matter of lashing, for ho used
his rifle corps as a merciless scourge.
An interesting remeniscence was
left by tho Rev. William Hill, of Win
chester, Va., wbo was General Mor
gan's pastor in his later years. He
says:
"Upon one occasion, while assisting
in changing his linen, I discovered his
back to be covered with scars and
ridges from shoulders to the waist.
'General,' said I. 'what has been the
matter with your back?' 'Oh,' replied
he, 'that has been the doing of old
King George. When I was in his ser
vice upon a certain occasion he prom
ised to give me 500 lashes. But he
failed in his promise and gave mo but
499, so he has been owing me one lash
ever since. While the drummer was
laying them on my back I heard him
miscount. I was counting after him
at the time. I did not think it worth
while to tell him of his mistake, anl
let it go.' "
The probability is that this is the
correct story, BO far as it goes.
