In 18G2, when I served my country as a private in Company A, 167th Pennsylvania Volunteers, I contracted chronic diarrhoea, it has given me a great deal of trouble ever since. I have tried a dozen different medicines and several doctors without any permanent relief. Not long ago a friend sent me a sample bottle of Chamberlain's Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and after that I bought and took a 50-cent lnrttle; and now I ean say that I am entirely cured. I cannot be tha.ik ful enough to you for tills great remedy, and recommend it to all suffering veterans. If in doubt write me. Yours gratefully, Henry Steinberger, Allentown, Pa. Sold by Dr. W. L.

One night when Admiral de Horsey, at Port lloyal, was returning to his flagship alone his way to the boat led across the barrack square. A black sentry of one of the West India regiments halted him at the gate with, ' Who goes dar ?" Great was the Admiral's annoyance to find he had neglected to get the password. "That's all right," he said, carelessly, hoping to overcome the man's scruples by indifference, "you know who I am." "Dunno know nobody, sar," replied the neI ero pompously; "you can't go in C7 I ? " ' ~ dar." "Why, I'm Admiral de Horsey !" "Well, you cant go in," was the reply. "I don't care if you's Admiral de donkey, I don't." "Let me give you a pointer," said M. F. Gregg, a popular conductor on the Missouri Pacific railroad. "Do you know that Chamberlain's Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea remedy cures you when you have the stomach ache? Well, it does." And after giving this friendly bit of advice, the jolly conductor passed on down the aisle. It is a fact | that thousands of railroad and traveling men never take a trip without a bottle of this remedy, which is the best cure for bowel disorders in tie world. 25andoo| cent bottles for sale by Dr. W.

Years ago, when it was more the fashion in Kansas than at present, United States District Attorney "Bill" Perry gave a "stag party" to his gentlemen friends at Fort Scott. He procured a bountiful supply ofcold beer ! for 'he delectation of his guests, j but hid it away in an upper room ! as a po&t-prandlc surprise. When the proper time arrived for the revelation of his surprise, he said to the assembled company: "Boys, I have a lot of cold beer up-stairs, but before we start I want to know whether you intenn to dring like gentlemen or like hog<?" "0, we'll 'rink like gentlemen.'' "That settles it,'' replied the jovial host, as a smile rippled over all three of his double chins. "I'll have to se* d for more beer. A hog always knows when he's got enough."
