True, it is an "honor to have gradu ated at AY est Point; but it should be an rqual honor, provided the knowledge and fitness be the same, to have graduated from any school. The test put upon tbe young man is in the rcjrular army. What has he done there? What can bedo under the sew post-sraduate relationship? The Men In the- Kanks Faithful. Embraced with the officers of the regular service were the non-coinmisioned officers and privates. Before the "War of the Ee beilion there was clear-cut training and in telligent discipline. These faithml serv ants ot the Government have not yet re ceived the high consideration due them. Their history, some of it is on record in dry documents or buried in bushels of well folded official reports, cannot well be writ ten. At the great Uebellion outbreak many officers sympathizing with secession re signed their commissions, and many de terted their flag. It is the pioud boast of all enlisted men of the regular army that their predecessors in the ranks were to a man steadfast to the Union. And, truly, if an v such enlisted soldier deserted to joiu the Confederacy I bave yet to bear his name. When a local military comnany is formed, as is o!tcn the case, in a country district or village, it is a great desideratum to get an cx-regular soldier to teach and drill. He is always treated with great attention and re spectl But if a young man chances to enlist for honest employment in the regular army, the dwellers in his district or village pity his family, make him a social outcast by de crying his fall, and scoff at his uniform as a badge of disgrace. This ought not to be. It is not the ca.e now in our European countries. The soldiers of our small army are, as a class, self-respecting men. They arc honorable, trustworthy and upright in conduct. In morals and manners certainly they compare favorably with the average people in the communities where they happen to be stationed. If one soldier be comes the worse for liquor a thousand peo ple notice his uniform and tbe army gets a widespread credit for drunkenness; wheieas the civilian drunkard gives but a limited disgrace. "Where the soldier gets reported and puuisbed, eitendinc his ill-repute, the civilian escapes notice, injuring only hini self and his poor family. The Strength of the Ariny.

Of the 31ajor Generals (three in number), one commands the army and tbe others each a division, embracing one or more departments. The six Briga dier Generals usually commaud depart ments. The divisions and departments are geographical sub-divisions embracing sev eral States, and the General's command con sists of the troops stationed within the limits of this command. The duties of the staff are indicated by their names. One officer of each ot the first six departments is on duty at each division and department headquarter, to do the de tailed work of his department in the com mand. Besides the Quartermaster, com missary and medical departments each conducts a system of purchasing and supply depots directly under the Secretary of War, and tree from military command. The medi cal department also furnishes the medical officers :or duty at tbe military post The cores ot engineers, ordnance department and Mgnal corps arc separate from the rest of the army in their work, the former cineflv on the rivers and harbor improve ments, the second in the construction of guns and other ordnance stores, and the lat ter as a weather bureau, all directly under the Secretary ot "War':, direction. A new law, not yet in operation, takes the weather bureau work from the signal corps. Tbe chaplains are supplied to military posts as far as their number will permit. VI hat the Force Consist; of.

It is but a nucleus, but, with its staff ma chinery, geographical divisions, arsenals, armories, permanent works and numerous depots for the required supplies, it can be readily expanded, as heretofore, fairly to meet the needs or a sudden war. The regular army rightly made up at once permeates the mass of the National Guard and volunteers, and is like good seed sown in good ground. O. O. Howabd. Qoyzrsors Island, lSewTork Harbor. THE CRITIC'S REYIEW. Modern Stories of Illustrious Men and Historical Books. SOCIAL TOPICS TIMELY TREATED. Dainty Bits in the Cnrrent Department of Belles Lettres. THE KETV NOVELS OP TEE PAST WEEK Welcome, all the biograpiiiesl We can not well bave too many good men's lives, in the books or out of them, and especially when they are as well done as they are to day. The art oi biography was lost for a good many centuries. Between the days ot Plutarch and the Bible and our own for tunate era, men forgot how to tell tbe story of great men's lives so as to make the story interesting. Nowadays, almost all the biographies are attractive, readable, and profitable. Here is a stack of them: "The Footprints of Charles Lamb," by Benjamin El!is .Martin (Scribner's), bound in vellum, one of the most beautiful books of the year; and delightful to read. The Iiondou dwellings of UJamb arc sketched, and his li e in them, and the friends who shared it, are capitally described. What would Lamb have said toSavonero la? Or Savoncrola to Lamb! Either way the companionship is a queer one to meditate upon. Here is the Florentine prophet next, however. "The Life of Savon crola," by William Clark (A. C. JlcClurg), & Co.) A briel biography, excellent lor people who have not time nor money for Villari's classic biography; good for any body to read who is reading, "Koinola," Put together the Savonerola ot Prof. Clark and oi George Eliot, and you get a pretty true idea, no doubt, of the Savonerola of San Marco. "Four French Women," by Austin Dobson (Dodd, Mead & Co.), charmingly bound, aud delightfully written. Charlotte Corday, Madame Itoland, the Princess de Lamballe and Madame de Zenlis, are the four. The essays have ap peared before, and are now deservedly col lected into this permanent shape. Wc are glad to know more of the work and character of Henrik lbseu. Here is a "critical biography" of him by a fellow countryman of his, Henrik Jaeger, trans lated bv William Morton Payne. There is a picture of the dramatist for the frontis piece, looking like a good-natured, strong minded Jack-in-thc-Box with spectacles. The principles and motives of Ibsen's work are her; studied. (A. C. McClurg.) "Desiree, Queen or Sweden and Norway," (Dodd, Mead & Co.) is a pleasant little sketch of an eventful life, most attractively printed. The young queen was once be trothed to Napoleon Bonaparte. The story of her life is told by Baron Hochschild, who was her chamberlain. In the midst of our present interest in Africa, comes the life of a man who did as brave work there as Stanley, and from a vastly better motive: "Mackay of Uganda" (A. C. Armstrong & Son). "It is no sacrifice, as some think, to come here as pioneers of Christianity and of civilization. I would not give my position here lor all the world. A powerful race has to be won from darkness to light; super stition and idolatry have to be overthrown; men bave to be taught to love God aud love their neighbor, which means the uprooting of institutions which bave lasted for cen turies; labor made noble, the slave set irce; knowledge imparted, and wisdom im planted; and, above all, that true wisdom taught which alone can elevate man from a brute to a son of God. Who would not willingly engace in such noble work, and consider it the highest honor on earth to be called to do it?" Macfcay wrote that from. Uganda. Such a man's life is worth read ing. Here are four hooks of the "Famous French Women" series (Scribner's). "The Wife of the First Consul," "Uitizeness Bonaparte," "Marie Louise, and the De cadence of the Empire," and "The Court of the Empress Josephiue." These books deal with French history at a time when every day is full of interest. Xapolcon, whether wc admire him or not, wins the attention of every student either of history or of human nature. And the "court" which he gath ered about him was interesting in propor tion. These capital and carefully written volumes are studies in the lives oi notable women of that conrt; above all, of Jose phine, to whom three volumes are devoted. "I have borne more than my share of the weariness which is the common lot of man," said that unhappylady, the good and evil fortunes of whose lite are here set down, lmbert de Saint Armand is the writer of these excellent histories. Thomas Sargeant Perry is the translator. "Civilzation: an Historical Review of Its Elements." is the wide title ot a volume by Charles Morris (S. C. Griggs & Co.), to set forth the philosophy oi human progress and to trace the steps by which isan has grown out of savarrery into his present condition of partial enlightenment is the purpose of these two volumes. The development of the state, the growth of religion and its place as a political ageucy, the unfolding of legal institutions, the advancement of industrial conditions, the progress ofliterature,science aud education, are considered. Tbe work is fairly and justly written, without any preju dices of theory, and the result is a valuable outlook over the whole advance ot hu manity. "Tbe Taking of Lamsburg in 1745," by Samuel Adams Drake (Lee & Shepard), is a brief study of an important episode, set forth by a writer who knows what he desires to say, and says it with a clearness which is always pleasant and profitable. "Auglo-Saxon Freedom," by James K. Houier (Scribner's), U a constitutional his tory o' the polity of the English-speaking racf. It begins with the Teuton of the days of Csesar and comes down to the citizen of the United States in the days of Harrison. "Government of the people, by the people, and for the people" how catne auybodv to plan out such a wide institution? What has been the history of its progress? The book answers these questions. A thought ful, learned book, with a great deal of mat ter in a little space. "The Life of an Artist" (D. Appleton & Co.) is written by the artist himself, Jules Breton. He kuows- how to write as well as to paint, and does both delightfully. His painting, "Tbe First Communion," was sold in New York a text years ago for nearlv?50, 000. That is somewhat more than he will earn with the pen. But his book will prob ably give pleasure to a larger number of people. II. Now it is in order, after "Darkest Eng land," to give us a sight of darkest New York. Mr. Itiis had done that before Gen eral Booth's book was written, in a series of papers in Scribner't. Here they are, gathered into a handsome book, and en titled "How the Other Half Lives (Scrib ner's). These chapters are studies of tene ment house life in New York. They were written by Mr. Riis from materials gained by him as reporter on a New York daily paper, and are illustrated from photographs which he took himself. This is a book which everybody ought to read. The first steps toward helping the "other halt" into better living is to find out just how they live now. And thit is what this book is for. "London Street Arabs" (Cassell & Co.) is interesting in this connection; and also from the fact that the author and artist ot the book is Dorothy Tennant, now' Mrs. Henry M. Stanley; and still more from the genuine excellence of the book itself. It is a book of pictures, with a briet' preface. And' the pictures are studies which Mrs. Stanley has made among the pigmies of London. This is a good time to make cheerful prophecies of the industrial and social future. And here are three, following in the steps of Mr. Bellamy: "News From' Nowhere," by Willlaui Morris (Eobens Bros.); "A Dream ot a "Modest Prophet," by M. D. Leggett (J. B.'Lippincott Oo.)t and "The New Constitution," by John D. Cunning (Donohue, Henncberry & Co.), According to Mr. Morris, the poat and socialist, London in the twentieth century will go back to the delicht:ul condition of the Middle Ages, and will be a big, com fortable and picturesque old country townf where no rows of houses will be set together as now, and no smoke oi 'factory chimneys will pollute the air, and everybody will have a perfectly dclight'ul," cultured, leisurely time. The "Modest Prophet" makes a 'journey to the planet Mars to discover how the people of that ancient world 'bavo worked out the problems at which wc, in our school boy stage of civilizition, are still toiling. He finds things in a good way up there. All our industrial, political and religious difficulties are settled. The religious ones first. The people of that neighbor planet, as reported by this prophet, are genuinely religious people, and that has settled every thing. Surely there is some sense in that. "Co-operation is the only remaining hope of American wage-workers. Cooperation cannot succeed unless aided and supported by the strong arm of government. Govern ment aid " can only be secured as the result of legislation. Such legislation will never be adopted while our present corrupt politi cal methods continue in control of the af fairs of city, State and nation. We must limit the tenure of law-making officials to a single term, thus eliminating the profes sional politician, and tilling our legislative halls with honest, earnest men, who come directly from, and understand and appre ciate the needs and demands of tile people." This is the central thought of "The New Constitution." A profound discussion of the'whole in dustrial question, on the financial side of it, is to be found in Ivufus Cone's Jiook,. "Tiie Distribution of Wealth." (J. B. Lippin Cott Co.). The limitations on wealth, the co-relation of wealth and poverty, interest, taxation, monopolies and protection and free trade are discussed in a clear, "fair and readable way. ill. "Over the Teacups" is Dr. Holmes' At lantic articles put in worthy settinsr in. a handsome book. (Houghton, Mifflin & Co.). "The Story of My House," by George H. Ellwanger (D. Appleton & Co.) is one of the most charmingly written and printed books among the recent achieve ments of authors and publishing houses. "My Note Book," by Dr. Austin Phelps (Scribner's), contains the last essays of that helpful thinker and wise theologian. "Representative Sonnets by American Poets," edited by Charles H. Crandall (Houghton. Mifflin & Co.) begins with an opening chapter on the sonnet, excellently done, and contains 300 pages of the best work which has been done along this at tractive line. "Education and the Higher Life," by Bishop Spalding (A. C. McClurg & Co.), is :i scries of suggestive essays on such subjects as "Ideal," "Seir-Culture." "Growth and Duty" and "Right Human Life," written in'a fine snirit, uplifting, helpful and inspiring. "Essays in Phil osophy," by Pro"-. WilfiamKuight (Hough ton, Mifflin & Co.), is an application of modern thinking to old problems. Most striking, perhaps, is the curious paper on "Metempsychosis." Did we live be ore we were born? Prof. Knight thinks we may have done so. Mr. Gladstone's "Im pregnable Hock ot Holy Scripture" (John D. Wattles) is a most " noteworthy produc tion. The articles, written for that best of religious papers. The Sunday School Times. are here reprinted in a well-made and timely book. "Birds of Pennsylvania," by Dr. B. H. Warren, of West Chester, is illustrated with a hundred colored plates, and pub lished "by Authority of the Common wealth." "Hereditv, Health and Per sonal Beauty" is bv John V. Shoemaker, M. D. (F. A. Davis.) "The American Annual of Photography for 1891" is lull of interesting articles for amateurs and pro fessionals. Even to outsiders its pictures are attractive. "Throuch Magip Glasses," by Arabella B. Buckley (D. Appleton & Co.), is a capital book for hoys and girls, telling the wonders of telescope, microscope, camera and spectroscope. I Finally, here are the titles of a dozen re cent novels: "Widow Guthrie," by Richard Malcom Johnston (D. Appleton & Co.); "Aunt Dorothv," by Margaret J. Preston (A. D. F. Randolph & Co.); "Flower de Hundred," by Mrs. Burton Harrison (Cas sell). These three are stories of Southern life, interesting, veracious, strong, worth reading. "The Doctor's Dilemma," by Hesba Stretton (Dodd, Mead Sz Co.); "Pa tience," bv Anna D. Warner (J. B. Lip pincott Co.); "The Demagogne," by D. R. Locke (Lee & Shepard); "Friend Olivia," by Mrs. Barr(Dodd, Mead & Co.), published in The Ctntury "The Strange Friend of TotoGill, a Spanish storv(A. Lovell & Co.); "A Mystery of New Or leans," by W. M. Holcombe, M. D. (J. B. Lippincott Co.); "Her Brother Donnard," by E. E. Veeder (J. B. Lippincott Co.5; "Alfrieda," by Mrs. Specht, (published by the author); "The Nugents of Carriconna," an Iristi story by Tiche Hopkins, (D. Appleton & Co.); "Wallord," by Ellen Olvey Kirk, (Houghton, Mifflin & Co.) thoroughly good, ends happily, full of attractive things, capitally written; "Timothy's Quest," by Kate Douglas Wiggin, (Houghton, Mifflin & Co.) one of the best books lor a bov or girl which can be had; "Strangers aud Way farers," by Sarah Orine Jewett, (Houghton, Mifflin & Co.); short' studies and stories, most of them previously printed in the magazines, happily brought together, taste fully bound an attractive book outside and in. Finally, thebound volumesof the Century and Scribner's for 1890;four great handsome volumes full of treasures. The articles arc of permanent value, the pictures are more satisfactory thau those in niue-teutlis of the expensive "art books." These books give the most for the least money of any volume in the literary market. Tbe publications noticed to-day are forsale at J. R. Weldis & Co.'s, aud several of them also at W. W. Waters. Now the shelf is cleared. The last bonk has had its word of comment. This week's installment ends the criticisms of The Ckitic. KCDTARD KIPLIXG'S second letter on America In THE DISPATCH to-morrow.

Both men come from the East well recommended, and will maintain the repu tation of the Duquesne cuisine. The papers dissolving the partnership be tween Frank Traylor and Thomas Brown, owners of the Hamilton Hotel, were signed yesterday, Mr. Taylor buying his partner's interest, and he is now the sole proprietor. Mr. Taylor intends to spend ?10,000 im proving the house in tbe spring.

Close Relations of Minister and His Flock Illustrated. A CHURCH'S LOVE FOR ITS PASTOR. Timely Words Concerning the Divisions of Christianity. SDSDAI TOriCS IS CITI CIIOKCIIES As an illustration o( the tender relations existing between a faithlul pastor and his flock, the action ot the Pilgrim Congrega tional Church, of New York City, a few days ago is in point Rev. Samuel H. Vir gin, had niinis'ered to this church for 20 years. At tbe beginning of his pastorate the church was smalt and comparatively weak. In the 20 years of his ministry there has been a steady growth, but no marked increase. The present membership is less than 400. Then Dr. Gregg, of Park Street Boston Church, recently accepted 'the call to the Lafayette Avenue Church, of Brooklyn, known as Theodore Cuylcr's Church. The Boston congregation on the lookout for the right kind of a minis ter, concluded that Dr. Virgin was tlioir man and extended to LIm a unanimous call. The Pilgrim church for a week or two was in terror lest they should lose their pastor. On the first Sunday of the now year Dr. Virgin preached one of his best sermons at the morning service, and at the close announced to the congregation that lie had resolved to stay with them. When the announcement was made, tbcro were demonstrations of satisfac tion iu the congregation that were hardly in keeping with ordcrlv worship, but mnsthavo been very satisfactory to the pastor. The feel ing of the church found vent in hand-clapping and a free flow of tears, and immediately upon the close oi service a congregational meeting was held, at which the pastor's salary was in creased F.2,000. A Hundred and Forty Religions. The census announcement that there are 140 religious bodies in the United States, exclusive of many independent congregations, will be re ceivd with some surprise by most people, whose knowledge of different sects docs not embrace more than a doi.en or twenty at the most. In the list as, disclosed bv the prelimi nary bulletin isjuedby the Census Bureau from Washincton arc the General-Six-Principle Baptists, tbe Schwerkfcldlans, the Thcosoph fcal Society, the Lifo and Advent Union and others which to a majority ol people will be entirely new. Witn 110 creeds formally adopted, and "many independent organiza tions" with their own notions besides the task of those who favor church nmon is difficult in deed. If only tbe more numerous denomina tions existed, the labor of effecting a unity of churches with regard to polity and the more essential doctrines might be easier, but what shall bo said when one hundred little denom inations, sturdy in their beliefs and customs, are in the Held, loth to givo them upT Pi ev idence Journal. Superfluous Churches. At the Congregational ministers' meeting in Boston, Monday, January o, tho Rov. William Barrows read a paper on the unnecessary churches in tbe five leading evangelical de nominations. City Missionary Waldron was qnoted as saying that Boston could dispense with one-fourth of her churches, or 60 in all, without damage to Christian worship. Mr. Barrows estimated that throughout Massa chusetts about one in four of the evangelical diuretic' could be spared, and the remainder be greatly invigorated by the change. Some thing like 400 small churches, costing on the averaso $500 a Tear to run, might just as well bo combined with other churches and save the 200,000 now expended, for better purposes. This subject has been canvassed again and again, but very litilo practical advantage has ever eonie out of tho discnsion. In the West ern home missionary fields, comity between denominations has of late years resulted in diminishing the number of superfluous churches to some extent, and wo believe there have been some instances of the consolidation of small churches ot different denominations in somo .Massachusetts towns, bnt so long as the denominational lines remain as they are, there is little hope of tho practical Christian union which Mr. Barrows contemplates. We are jet very far from realizing Christ's idea of. "one flock and one shepherd." The great ob stacle to the union of tho superfluous churches with others is the feeling that some other ohnrch than ours sbonld surrender. Mr. Bar rows offered no proposition for the removal of present denominational lines, but snzgested a new departure in tho organization of all new churches the union plan on the common evan gelical basis. ipringfieltt Union.

Elaine Goodalp, Who Is to Wed an Indian, bpeaks for the Uraves. THE BATTLE AT W0USDED OEE, She Sajs, Was a Deliberate Slaughter by the Excited Soldiers.. SEYK.NTU CAYAI.KT'S GCDDGE KEPAII) Washington, .Jan. 16. Tbe Commis sioner ot Indian Affairs'bas received from Miss Elaine Goodale, Supervisor of Educa tion, tbe following letter, dated Pine-liidge, January 12: "JTours of the 7th instant, asking for a re port of the battle at "Wounded Knee, is re ceived. I was not an eve-witness of the fijrbt, and my information has been obtained chiefly from Indian prisoners, who engaged in it, and half-breeds, who were present, and ,fnm parties who visited the battlefield sev eral days after the encounter. The testi mony of the survivors of Big Foot's band is unanimous on one important point, namely, that the Indians did not deliberately plan a resistance. The party was not a war party, according to their statements (which 1 be lieve to be true), but a party intending to visit the agency at the invitation of Red Cloud. Indian Side of the Story. "The Indians say that many of tbe men were unarmed. "When they met the troops they anticipated no trouble. There was constant friendly intercourse between the soldiers and the Indians, even women shak ing bands with tbe officers and men. The de mand lor their arms was a surprise to the Indians, but the great majority of tbem chose to submit quietly. The tepees had alreauv been searched anil a large number of guns, knives and' hatchets confiscated when the searching of the persons ol" the men was begun. "The women say that they, too were searched, aud their knives, which they al ways carry for domestic purposes, taken from them. A number of the uien had sur rendered their rifles and cartridge belts, when one young man (who is described by the Indians as a good-ror-nothing young fel low) fired off a single shot. This culled forth a volley from the troops, aud the firing and contusion became genera). Defense of the Squaws. "We do not credit the statement made by some that fbe women carried arms and participated actively in the fight. The weight ot testimony is overwhelmingly against this supposition. There may have been one or two isolated cases of this kind, but there is no doubt that the great ma jority of the women and children, as well as many unarmed men and youth, had no thought of anything but flight. They were pursued up tbe ravines and shot down in discriminately bv tbe soldiers. "It is reported that one of tbe officers called out: 'Don't shoot the squaws,' but the men were doubtless too much excited to obey. The killing of the women and chil dren was in part unavoidable, owing to the confusion, but I think there is no doubt that in many cases there was deliberate and intentional killing. The Seventh Cavalry, Custer's old command, had au old grudge to repay. The Killed and Wounded. "Tbe party of scouts who buried the dead report 84 bodies of men and boys, 44 of women and 18 ot young children. Some were carried off by the hostiles. A number ot prisoners, chiefly women, bave since died of their wounds, aud more will soon follow. The party who visited the battlefield on Jan uary 1 to rescue any wounded who might have been abindoncd, brought in the report that nearly all the bodies of the men were lying close about Big Foot's Sibley tent, while the women and children were scat tered along a distance ot two miles from the encounter. "The main reflection which occurs to me in connection with this unfortunate affair is that the same thing should not be allowed to happen again: The irresponsible action of one hot-headed youth should not be the sig nal for a general and indiscriminate slaugh ter of tbe uuarmed and helpless." HO DISPENSATION GSANTED. "Why a Keokuk Wedding That Was Sched uled railed to Occur. Keokuk, Ia., Jan. 16. A marriage that was to have taken place in this city the other day did not materialize. The con tracting parties were Br. L. D. Eley, of Ilion, Ind., physician of the Cleveland, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad, and' Miss Kate Conroy, daughter of a, well-to-do citizen of Keokuk. The prospective groom ia a Protestant, while bis bride is a Catholic. Herein lies tbe cause of tbe postponement of the ceremony. Father Lowrey, priest of St. Francis de Sales Church, was called, upon to unite them in matrimony, and in accord ance with the customs of that church wrote to the Bishop of this diocese at Davenport for a dispensation. The wedding dinner was all prepared, and the few guests invited had all assembled, when Father Lowrey arrived and announced that tbe dispensation had not arrived, and consequentlv he could not marry them. It seems Dr. Eley has been married' before and now has a divorced wife living. This is the reason the necessary dispensation was not forthcoming. The evening papers did not learn of the postponement of the ceremony, and to-night devoted halt a column to a de scription of the wedding. Dr. Eley, Miss Conroy and the latter's mother left for Davenport in order to see the Bishop. READ I. Marlon Crawford' nejv story, "THH WITCH OF PRAGUE." Opening chapters In TO-MORROW'S DISPATCH.

THEIR TESTIMONY. Probably one of tho most thriving towns of its size in Pennsylvania is Butler, the conntv sent nf Butler county, a pleasant place of about 7,600 inhabitant?. Mr. Mangold, an industrious and well-to-do merchant, is well known and respected by all Bntleritcs. His wife. Mrs. Anna Mangold, is a charming lady, and has many friends. Recent ly the writer had the pleasure of an interview with Mrs. Mangold, during which she recited a brief history of a portion of her life, interest ing to a degree, and the conclusion of which seemed truly wonderful. "Some time ago," says Mrs. Mangold, "I con tracted a cold: nothing alarming abont that, but ere I recovered from its effects I caught another and then another, until X bad a cold all the time. My head and nose would be stopped up sol could hardly breathe. Tliero was aenn stant rumbling and buzzing in mvears, which later on affected my bearing. Soon a severe cough set in. 1 would raise great quantities of offensive matter. Mrs. Inna Mangold, Ji.ller, Sutler Co., Pa "As my tronble grew worse sharp pains would take me In the breast and region ot tbe heart, shooting throush under the shoulder blades. Night sweats came on and weakened me fear fully. My appetite continued good, but every thing I ate seemed to disagree with me. I suffered almost constantly with spells of terri ble neuralgic pain in my stomach, which would invariably be followed by diarrhoea and a sen sation ot ranseaand faintness. My sleep was restless and broken by bad dreams and night mare, and did me no good. I would arise In tbe morning feeling more tired than tbe night before. " "I tried many things: to get relief, but all in vain. My wbolo system was undermined by tbe disease. I finally grew so weak I was un able tn walk. In short, I was as near dead as it was possible to be and still live. I was in this condition when my attention was attracted to Drs. Coneland and Blair. I decided to call on them. I did so, and finding their charges so very reasonable began their treatment. "What was tho result? Vory surprising to me, I assure yon. I began to improve almost at once. Mysvmptoms gradually left me, until to-day I am like a different person entirely. I feel better than I have in five years. I gaired 31 pounds in two months under their splendid care. It is certain, witbont a doubt, tbeyaaved my life, and I cannot find words to express my gratitude." Mrs. Mangold lives, as stated, in Bntler. Pa., where tbis statement can be readily verified in person or by letter. SNATCHED FROM THE GRAVE. The Terrible Situation From Which Mr. Timothy Mahan Was Rescued by Drs. Copeland and Blair. Mr. Timothy Mahan. Eighteenth street. Sharpsburg, who is employed in Bros'. glass works, saysr "For tbe past four years I was badly affected with catarrh, so badly that I thought It would finally bring mo to my grave. 1 bad almost half a dozen different doctors, but they couldn't find out.what was wrong with. me. My head and nose was stopped up. Sharp pains over eyes and through my temples. My throat con stantly filling with mucus. Night sweats and palpitation of tbe heart. My appetite was poor and 1 could not rest nights. I began treatment with Drs. Copeland and Blair. I im . well man to-day. all my symptoms are gone. I gladly recommend these eminent specialists, for they saved me." ' SpeeliMndorsements. Following are given a few of Pittsburg's prominent citizens who have treated with Drs.
