made to reorganize at different per
iods between 1892 and 1905, but none
of them proved very successful until
a determined effort to form an asso
ciation of the two commands —First
City Zouaves and City Grays—was
made Just previous to and In prepara
tion for Harrisburg's Old Home Week
celebration in 1905. This organiza
tion became permanent and is in ac
tive work to-day.

ciation turn out on different military
occasions and keep in close touch
with the present excellent companies
of the National Guard, known as "The
City Grays"—Company D and Com

IX EXPLANATION"
In the opening chapter of this his
tory of the First City Zouaves and City
Qravs it was stated that this would
be "a series of articles covering part
of the work of this excellent com
mand during its fifty-two years of
service in peace and war"; that it
would not nor could not be made'a
complete record of all the operations
of the various companies in this long
period of service; that names would
be omitted that ought to be in and
some inserted having no right to be
there. This was unavoidable because
of loose methods used Jn some cases
and in the loss or misidying of var
ious books and-papers of e»>ly days
that would have been invaluable.
The data for the various sections
was collected from many sources and
in some cases required a great deal
of search, not only to find the mate
rial, but to verify names and dates,
and to correct errors known to exist
in some of the books and papers.
However, it has been made as com

Pierce's FAVORITE PRESCRIPTION J
Give it a fur trial for banishing those distressing pains or
drains on one's vitality. This prescription of Dr. Pierce's regulates all the
womanly functions. It eradicates and destroys "Female Complaints" and
weaknesses that make women miserable and old before their time. Every girl
needs ft before womanhood. Every mother needs it. It is an invigorating tonic
for the female system. All medicine dealers have sold it with satisfaction, to
customers for the past 40 years. It is now obtainable in liquid or tablet form
atdrugstorea—or send 60 one-cent stamps for trial box, to R.V. Pierce, Buffalo.
