Mankind needs ZJ\ a herald, like the heralds of J °ld’ to P ro ' claim so that v/Rj may h car , the Jvl fJ v *tal importance of * MJ health. The avera&e man °f to-day (fly .7J) thinks it beneath I ( his dignity to bother about his health until \r r7l it is gone Even then (U /j he only takes measures H / 1 to restore i° an i n_ I / different, contemptuW l ous sort of way. A pxw' Men cannot learn - too soon that health j i s the most iniport/<S ant thing i* l life—in ' feet, i ,s iif e ‘ Without it the most brilliant J man will be a failure, * and the most robust man will rapidly become a physical wreck The man who neglects the little headaches, the loss of appetite and sleep, nervousness, hot flushings, cold chills, heavy head, lax muscles, and the multitude of bad feelings that are the heralds of approaching sickness and disease, must pay a tremendous penalty. For men who suffer in this way there is no medicine equal to Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It sharpens the appetite, corrects all disorders of the digestion, invigorates the liver, makes the assimilation of the food perfect, purifies the blood and enriches it with the life-giving elements that build new, healthy flesh. It is the great blood-maker and flesh-builder. It cures 98 per cent, of all cases of consumption and is the best of all known remedies for nervous troubles. Thousands have told, over their own signatures, the stories of the wonders it has performed. Honest dealers will not urge a substitute for the sake of a little extra profit. Thomas Fletcher, of Clifton Station. Fairfax Co., Va.. writes: “I suffered terrible tortures for ten years with 'gastralgia' (pain in the stomach). I then took six bottles of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, which completely cured me.” When the bowels are regular the body will feel good and the mind will be active. Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets cure constipation. One little “Pellet” is a gentle laxative, and two a mild cathartic. They never gripe. All good dealers sell them and have nothing else “just as good.”

The case on trial is that of the National Home Building and Loan association of Bloomington, Ills., which holds mortgages to the amount of $109,000 in Indiana. ACCIDENTALLY SHOT.

FOR GARRISON DUTY FORTY THOUSAND TROOPS TO BE SENT TO CUBA. Administration Will Not Wait lor the Spani*li to Evacuate the Island—Discharge* From the Army Cannot Be Procured Through lutlaeuce In Future. Washington, Sept. 20.—1 tis the present intention of the administration to send to Cuba, as a garrison force for the island, about 40,000 troops, in addition to the force now in Santiago under command of General Lawton. The organizations which are to comprise the Cuban garrison have not all been designated yet, but it is assured that at least half of them will be volunteers. Within two weeks orders will be issued for the movement to Cuba of the first 10,000 of the permanent garrison and it is the expectation now that they will sail from the United States about Oct. 10. These troops will be followed quickly by others, until the entire force of 40,000 has been established on the island. It is not the intention of the administration to await the evacuation of the island by the Spanish forces before sending United States troops to Cuba, as the indications now are that it may be several months before the Cuban commissioners complete their work. Quite naturally, a considerable number of Spanish troops will remain on the island until the arrangements for the relinquishment of Spanish sovereignty over it formally have been concluded. The rainy season in Cuba is nearly at an end and the most delighttul season of the year on the island is about to begin. During the late fall and winter months the climate in Cuba is not only enjoyable, but healthful and, with such care as will be taken for the health and comfort of the American forces to be stationed in Cuba, officials of the war department have no fear that serious illness among the men will follow the occupation of tne island. DISCHARGES From Army Service Cannot Be Procured Through Senator* In Future. Washington, Sept. 20. —Tile following statement is given out at the war department: “The war department is just at present undergoing an experience which illustrates the alacrity with which the average American citizen hastens to his senator or representative in congress for aid in emergencies. “The cessation of hostilities and the improbability of their renewal, with the dullness of camp life, has apparently created a feeling of restlessness among the men of the volunteer army, who, in the majority of cases, have given up positions of larger compensation, and many of them are imploring their political representatives to obtain their discharges, and the latter in turn are flooding the war department with requests for prompt and immediate action. “To such an abuse of privilege has this grown that the war department has been obliged to call attention to that paragraph of the army regulations which requires that all communications from subordinates to superiors must pass through military channels, and to decline, as a rule, to entertain applications for discharges of enlisted men unit ss they come to it in the proper manner. “A soldier who is desirous of securing his discharge and has good and sufficient reasons upon which to base it will save himself a great amount of time and trouble if he will set forth the reasons for his discharge in a letter addressed to the adjutant general of the army and hand it to the captain of his company, who, in turn, is required to forward it to the colonel of the regiment and the latter to pass it along through brigade, division and corps headquarters with their recommendation. Unless this is done the department will send the paper back to the company commander for his recommendation, and that takes time which may be saved by following the proper rule. “The department has also promulgated another ruling iu this connection which is to the effect that public policy will not permit at this time the consideration of applications for discharges of men serving in the Philippine islands, Honolulu, Cuba or Porto Rico. The reasons for this are obvious. Aside from the question of transportation involved, the necessity of supplying the places of men who are to be discharged with others from the states, it is to be remembered that the war is not over and that much depends upon the results and deliberations of the peace commissioners, who have sailed for Paris.” MORE TROOPS TO MANILA. The Returning Transports Will Be Utilized to Carry Them. Washington, Sept. 20.—1 t was stated at the quartermaster general’s department that the returning transports which have been to Manila on one trip, will be used to take the troops now at San Francisco to the Philippines. Two of these steamers, which will accommodate about the half command, are expected in a day or two. Other steamers now on their way will be sent back as soon as loaded with troops. Four steamers will be sufficient for the transfortation of the troops and supplies. t is believed that less time will be consumed by using these transports than in fitting up new vessels. No Death* at Chickamauga. Chickamauga, Sept. 20.—The reports from the hospitals yesterday show very gratifying results. There were no deaths at either the Sternberg or at Leiter hospital. Nine men were released from Sternberg and turloughed and seven from fLeiter. The citizens of Chattanooga are arranging for a great reception to be tendered Secretary Alger tomorrow evening.
