' j The annul re-union of Confederate 1 veterans is beinff held in Oolombiathls ! . vreek, and that city, we know, is doing < \ herself proud, as she always does, in ! " ?of the men who IQ6 ClUiCfWummi v. -?_ wore the grey. The lines are growing ] weaker year by year, many are pass-, ( ( ing over the river day after day, and J it will not be long, at the longest, ^ until these re-nnions will have been a i ?hing of the past so far as the veterans 1 >. themselves are concerned. The time ' . is hastening when we, too, those of the e younger generation, those of ns who '1 apa dailv striving to live np to the K high standard set by these brave lead- j ^ers, will have to give op the fight. ?ut ao long as memory lasts we shall 'ever hold in reyerence and esteem the ~ memories of those of our fathers who , followed Lee and Jackson in that memorable straggle. May eyery old soldier attending the reunion ir Colombia this week be permitted to , / attend the reunion a year hence; and finally, when the battle is over may each of them, together with those of. their comrades who have gone oerore, meet in that blessed re-onion beyond > this vail of tears.

I could shout now to know that we are all well of that dreadful trouble The first of last fall my little boy broke out with some kind of itching trouble. Thinking his blood was bad, I gave him a blood tonic, but he got worse and could not sleep at night. Some said he had itch and told me what was good for it. I used what people said was good for it but it did no good. My other two children and myself took the disease from him in January, 1911. L saw Hunt^ Cure advertised and I tt son ho*. It helped my f;UibUBOVu w "vw , little boy so much I got a box for eacK I 5f the family,- and now we are all well rf that awful trouble.
