The following letter has been i - - addressed to General Bennett f : ' H. Young, Louisville, Ky: . My Dear General: Some time since we discussed h , . the question of the erection of a . monument to the Rev. Romulus 1 Ji. Tuttle, D. D. Dr. Tuttle was born in Lenoir, JV . C, in December, 1842. After V ; tartans appointments he became V captain captain of Company F, 26th North Carolina Regiment. , This regiment has a record of ; . . the highest percentage of losses in any one battle during the war. At Gettysburg it suffered v.1- ' a decimation of eighty-eight per :." cent. Company F, which was 1 ' commanded by Captain Tuttle, , carried into that battle eighty- eight men and three officers. ' - Thirty. one were killed or mortal v '-'a : v iy wounded. A list of the names ' .' and descriptions of the wounds ': i was prepared contemporaneous ly, so that there can be no ques- tion about the marvelous record. On the morning of the Fourth .:- ;r of July there were none of this ..company to answer roll call. All them were either dead or mortal -' .Jy wounded, or confined in hos ; pitals on account of wounds. I do not recall any instance in the ', -history of the war where a sim ilar thing occurred with so large . j& number of men. ' v You tell me that Dr. Tuttle af-! ' v fterwards became a distinguished j -Presbyterian minister and is 1 buried at Lexington, Va. I think his heroism and the details of ; this battle, in so far as it effect- d Dr. Tuttle's company, should I toe preserved. He was both a " iaithful soldier in our great war and a faithful soldier for Christ. What he did was an honor not ! , - only to North Carolina but to ; the Confederate States. ' y":''' I would be glad if you would l consult with Dr. Tuttle's family and learn if they are willing for - the monument to be erected at n ' . : the place of his burial. I shall ' claim the privilege and honor of , 'bearing the expense of the con- istrtiction of this memorial. "li . ' I am putting this labor on you , because you are always active in . honoring Confederate heroism because you were associatsd with Dr. Tuttle in the Southern , Presbyterian Church. Asking your early attention to this, I remain. ' Very truly yours, ; Julian S. Cark. i Durham, N. C.

Listen to the lay of the unknown: Cleveland, Ohio, June 4th, 1917. Mr. "Doper" Lenoir News, Lenoir, N. C. Sir: Having nothing to do and a desire to do it, I now take my pen in hand and relieve my self of the pressure brought to bear on me by several lovers of the "Dope Column" and will give you some of the Personals of Lenoir's Colony in Cleveland: Mack Triplett seems to like town pretty well as he leaves the house most every few minutes. The nearest one is only two blocks away. E. Dick Healan seems to en- joy city life also. "Babe" Safford is writing a book in one volume. He will call it, Staying Out Late." Collin (Swede) Johnson has a crick in his neck from looking at the high buildings. Waitsel Niffte Dysart has got enough energy to take two hours walk in the suburbs of the city every morning before eating a six o'clock breakfast. He also has a small appetite. Jess Eller is going to make application for the office of Chief of Police of the "Sixth City." Whiskey first" and then 'Tar "America" is the way the Heels" say it in Cleveland. (Signed) A.

KiO:;EY THOUZLE Take Salts to flush ' Kidneys I Back hurts or Bladder bothers. v If you must have your meat every day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted authority who tells us that meat forma uric acid which almost paralyses' the kidneys in their efforts to expel from the blood. They become sluggish and weaken, then you suffer with dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in fhe back or sick head ache, dixsiness, your stomach soars, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you hare rheumatk twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sedi ment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body waste get four ounce of jad Salts from any pharmacy here; take a teaspoooful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will tnen act fine. fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemoa juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stim ulate sluggish kidneys; also to neutral iie the acids in urine so it is no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weak ness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in jure, and makes a delightful efferves cent lithia-water drink. NOTICE.

Hopes Women Will Adopt This Habit As Well As Men Class of hot water each morn ing helps us look and feel clean, sweet, fresh. Happy, bright, elert vigorous ami vivacious a good clear skin; a nat ural, rosy complexion and freedom from illness are assured only by clean, healthy blood. If only every woman and'likewise every man could realize the wonders of the morning inside bath, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of the thousands of sickly, anaemic-looking men, women and girls with pasty orjmuddy complexions; in stead of the multitudes of "nerve wrecks," "rundowns," "brain fags" and pessimists we should see a virile, optimistic throng of rosy-checked peo ple everywhere. An inside bath is had by drinking, each morning before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoooful of limestone phosphate in it to wah from the stomach, liver, kidneys and tea yards of bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour fermentations and poisons, thus cleansing, sweeten ing and freshening the entire aliment ary canal before putting more food in to the stomach. Those subject to sick headache, bil iousness, nasty breath, rheumation, colds; and particularly those who have a pallid, sallow complexion and who are constipated, very often, are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store which will cost but . a trifle but is sufficient to demonstrate the quick and remarkable change in both health and appearance awaiting those who practice interne! sanitation. We must remember that Inside oleanliness is more important than outside, because the skin does not absorb impurities to contaminate the plpod, wh'.le the pre 'a the thirty ect 6 jbo wU do. ?
