Miss Maud McDaniel, daughter of J
J. AleDaniel, who tells this interesting
narrative of Admiral Dowey's youngel
days, is now visiting friends at 11
Oakland boulevard, in this city.
" My father has spoken of the on
gragementat Port Hudson many times,'
said Miss MclDaniel, "and when Ad
miral Dewey began to attract general
attention h remembered him as the
daper young lieutenant whom he had
under guard after the trouble at Port
Hudson. My fathor has many arnce
dotes of the war and now treasures
uorst those which relate to Dewey and
tlie cv, ntis prior to and following the
!Port Iludson affair. He was little more
thnn a boy at the time, and naturally
.1n0ouglh was attracted to Lieutenant
Dewey, lie was actually sorry for him,
but in the light of events I guess he
wasn't sorry long.

In his speoch at Providence, R I.

Tillman said some very plain things to
his hearers, to which they were not ac
f customed. He said the Philipine war

- and he sevorely condonned imperia.

capitalists, anc' charged them with
being a party to slave conditions in
the Hawailon Islands on sugar planta
tions.
In describing the speech the corre
spondent to the Boston -Post said :
In language emphatic and sarcasm
most biting, with his index flngor
pointed at the audience, he handled
the topics of the day in a fashion now
to the experience of Now England au
diencos, and for a time the people
looked amazed. The audienco soon
became accustomed to his manner of
presenting his argument, so that when
he had finished they cried for " Moro,
moro. Go on," and applauded so long
that the Senator was obliged to bow
his acknowledgements several timos.
Lynching in iho South he upheld ; the
right of the negro to the ballot with
out the educational qualification he
condemned, and he regarded the treat
ment of the negro in the North as
hypocritical.
Senator Tillman said among other
tbings: " Tihe warmth of you,' wel
come leads mu to remark that it has
not been so loiing ago that a man from
the South and from South Carolina
who would have come to Now England
to discuss national issues would have
met with a very ditTerent trtatment.
(Laughter and applause.) I take it,
my friends, as augury of better days
for tine republic that the Spanish war,
if it has done nothing else, is worth all
that it cost in tihe fact it, has rioved
that the South will liht for the Stars
and Stripes as readily as you will. (Loud
a)ppause.)
" We have been in existence as a na

been in tine habit of boasting that, we
have the greatest nation on the globe,
the freest nation, the 'land of the free

friends, I tell you thnat as far as I can
see we are approaching a crisis when
we will have to change the policies of
tiis government or we will witness
the destruction of tihe republic and the
substitution for it of a* goverment of
the few rich people controlling and opl
pressing and robbing the Uasses.
(Loud applause.)
" Yoa New 'ngianders have some

THE GUARDIAN OF CIILOREL
Plow dellg upon outstreteled wing
he fiete. rapous bird of prey
Oldes near that small, sweet, tender thlbg
Those cruel claws would snatch away.
0, how that mother's heart nuust leap
To drive this perilf thi air
Away from that tnest of sleep
Wit all her love and longing there.
But see the staunch deflnder rise
With bristling in and head erect,
No power can snatch that precious prig%
While he stands ready to protect.
Bleep on sweet babe, your mother's breast
Once tuore shall press you close and warm,
No evil bird shall e'er muolest
While this brave guardian acents the harm.
To protect her little ones is among the
strongest instincts of a uother's heart, and
through all the thousands cares and worries
of a busy woman's life there arises ever and
anin the thought "0, if I could do more
for iuy baby I "
But mothers are too often weighed down
,41r
S - ' .I
and weakened with their own daily burdens
to (1o any tuore than struggle almost hope.
lessly against the physical and tmental evils
that beset themselves, with no strength left
to care for others. Womien with large fam
ilies find that the very ordeal of bringing
children into the world, and nursing and
rearing them to boyhood and girlhood, is
so great a draft upon the mother's strength
that she herself becomes the natural object
of care and protection.
It is a glorious boon to the women of this
gene ration that the wonderful supportive
tonic, originated by Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo,
N. Y., is calable of sustaining then through
the ordeal of frequent motherhood and
bringing theni out of it with unimpaired
wonanly strength and energy.
Motherhood. is not only the grandest of
wonian's possibilities, but is the natural
fulfillment of her physical being and when
prepared for with proper observance of
nature's laws and attended by reasonable
care should be free fron the mental de
pression, excessive pain and subsequent
prostration so coninonly experienced.
Thousands of women have found that the
use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
during the expectant tiime and over the
hursing period imuparts precisely the local
strength and constitutional reinforcement
needed to carry them over this critical junct
Ure cheerfully, safely, almost painlessly.
It affords direct organic endurance and
tonstitutional nerve-force. It gives recti
perative power; it promotes the secretie:.
bf abundant healthy nourish ment for the
child during the nursing period. It is in
the best sense the guardian of childhood
for it not only enables the mother to take
up the work of iife again with vigor and
enjoyment but through her it inibues the
little one with the rugged natural strength
which is a constant protection against the
physical evils with which childhood is
constantly assailed.
What Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
does for miothers and their children is well
exemplified in the experience of Mrs.
H. M. Hansrote, of Magnolia, Morgan Co.,
W. Va. In a recent letter to Dr. Pierce
she writes:
"I cominenced to take Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription somiething over two vears ago, and
am lad to testify that it is a God-send to wonan
kind. The three children who were born before
I began to take your medicine did not live long;
tbc were very delicate, but those born since
(three ist all) are verv liearty, atud that 'onuvinces
mie that your muedicine is just whtat it is said to
be amid a great deai miore. I couldl teil enough to
fill a book about the waiy I suffered and the wa y
yor unedicine acted. Indeed, every womnan on
the globe onught to kntow ab)oiit your medicine."
Another lady, Mrs. F~lizabeth Hull, of 27 Mer
rick St., Pawvtucket, Rt. I., writes: "I have had
fifleen babies, and always liada bad titne. Sonie
timies I have had to have two doctors. I began
taking your 'Favorite Prescription' last Jl
and ini Septemher I gave birth to two lIttlegrl
and I niever had such an easy tine. I had no
doctor and did not sdiffer half as long as before.
My twinas when born weighed ten pounds each.
They are fine girls. niow four muonthts old."
Dr. Pierce's Commton Sense Medical Ad
wiser tells you how to treat almost every
known form of disease at hmomie and just
what to do in ease of emiergency. There
is nmo trouble in understanding it. It con
tains zoo8 pages and more than 700 illustra
