They said that Grant had not the military gentus that other generals displayed in the war. To mind his and brain represented the very genius of the war to suppress the rebellion because It was his mind that grasped the thought that until we had fought it out with our brave opponents and met them in the field and fought them as hopeless, we could not expect to have a united country and therefore from the time he began in Belmont until he accepted the surrender at Appomattox, he fought not deities, not points of strategy, but he fought the enemy and he fought and fought and fought until he wore out those opposing him, because only by wearing them out could he hope to bring about the condition in which there should be complete peace.

If Good, Healthy and Happy. "I am well pleased with my experience with Hood's Sarsaparilla for my blood.

My trouble was of a scrofulous nature--sores frequently came on my neck, increasing in number and size. Years of treatment failed to effect a permanent cure. The sores discharged freely, and gave me much pain. The drain on my system had been so great I was completely worn out, easily became tired, and did not have much appetite. My neck was 50 sore and swollen, I could hardly turn my head around, but I took Hood's faithfully, and within two months the benefit began to come.

The sores healed up, my general health improved, appetite came back, and my flesh took on a good color. Since then I have never been troubled with scrofula, and have had good health all the time."
