no use complaining, it is action on the
part of the County Court to help this

Before Congress adjourned it did
one good thing in raising the rate of
pensions for women, whose husbands
took part in the civil war and in the
war with Spain. We quote the section
of the law:
Section 314. That from and after
the passage of this act the rate of
pension for a widow of an officer or
enlisted man of the army, navy, or
marine corps of the United States
who served in the (. ivil \\ ar, the war
with Spain, or the Phillippine Insur­

Here in America, where the facts
