ican war are entitled to pensions. Thousands are yet entitled 
to bounty, but do not know it. Fees in ail cases $10. Pay

tention to your business. American and Foreign patents ob¬

careful application of the line properties of well-selected 
Cocoa, Mr. Epps has provided our Breakfast tables with a 
delicately flavored beverage which may save us many heavy

that a constitution may be gradually built up until strong 
enough to resist every tendency to disease. Hundreds of subtle 
maladies are floating around us, ready to attack wherever 
there is a weak point. We may escape many a fatal shaft by
