the J mted Confederate Veterans, to be
held in Louisville, Ky., May 30, 31,
•Tune 1, 2 and 3, 1900. Comrades, the
bare mention of the fact that our re
unions are growing smaller each year,
when we shall look upon each other’s
faces for the last time in life, is in part
sufficient admonition for you to attend,
but in aldition to that, remember that
Kentucky, our host on this occasion, is
entitled to that attendance that will
show to them our appreciation and re
collection for the sy mpatby and fidelty
they so freely gave us in the trying
days of 1801, Bemember, comrades,
you will be on review in the grand city
of Louisville, in the state that gave to
the world the strong character, the bril
liant mind and noble patriot, Jefferson

state-tbat gave to the South in her trials
the brilliant spirits of -Breckinridge,

Cofer, Caldwell, Wickliffe, Burnett,
Humphrey, Marshall, ‘Buckner, Basil
Duke and last, but not least, Ben Har
din Helm and a host of others who
fought and died for Kentucky's pride
and the South’s honor. Bear in mind,
comrades, that there will be a com
mendable but pleasant rivalry existing,
as this is the first grand reunion since
our state has been divided iuto brigades,
and it is the ambition of your Brigadier
General that the North Georgia Brig
ade, U. C. V., shall present m numbers
and appearance a- strength that will
challenge' the admiration of the many
thousands who will so gladly welcome
you on that grard occasion. By order
of Andrew J. West,

DOES IT PAY TO BUY CHEAP?
A cheap remedy for conghs and colds
is all right, but you want something
that will relieve and cure the more
severe and dangerous results of throat
and lung troubles. What sballyoh do?
Go to a warmer and more regular cli
mate? Yes, if possible; if not possible
for you, then in either case take the
only remedy that has been introduced
in all civilized countries with success
in severe throat and lung troubles,
“Bosehee’s German Syrup.” It not
only heals and stimulates the t^sues to
destroy the germ disease, but allays in
flammation, causes easy expectoration,
gives a good night’s rest, and oures the
patient. Try one bottle. Recommended
many years by all druggists in the

An Observing; Puppy*.
A rector writes from Houlton, Eng
land, to The Spectator to record an in
stance of a very high order of intelli
gence in an animal, of a power of rea
soning as distinct from any acquired
instinct:
“I have a bullpup, aged 10 mouths,
and a bulldog 4 years old, both of
which live in the house and are greal
pots. A short time ago my wife was
ill, and, though the older dog, owin;
his quiet and sedate way, was allowed
to enter her room, the puppy was nev
er admitted. The nurse could always
tell which dog was at the door, because
tbe older dog gave one single and gen
tie scratch and then remained quiet,
while the puppy scratched violently
and frequently and whined. The puppy
apparently could not understand why
she was not admitted, and felt her ex
clusion sorely.
“One day she scratched furiously as
usual. No notice was- taken. Present
ly she was heard going flop-flop down
stairs. In a- few minutes the single
gentle scratch of the old dog was
heard, the door was opened, and there
were both dogs, and, strange to say,
from that time the puppy so Imitated
the scratch of the other dog that it
was Impossible to tell which was at
the door. Undoubtedly the puppy went
and asked the old dog to show, her
how he gained admission. How else
can one explain the fact?”
Dr. Tichenor’s Antiseptic is the most
wonderlul healing compound offered to
the public. For abrasion of the akin,
laceration of the flesh, burns by flume
or steam, hot metal, rope burns, or sun
burn, ring-worm, “poison oak,” etc., it
is pre-eminently superior to anything.
One fair trial will convince the most
skeptical. Sold by all druggists.

A liaise 111 Salary.
Some years ago Collis P. Hunting-
ton’s private secretary. Mr. Miles', ask
ed for an Increase of salary.
“Do you need any more money?”
asked Mr. Huntington thoughtfully.
“No, sir, I don't exactly ueed it,” re-
Tes! L'i;, still. I’d be glad
to be getfjUk r »CTi"le more.”
“Ah—hiiui-nidn.” mused his employ
er. “Can you get along without the
advance fot the present?”
“Oh, yes,”'auswered the secretary,
“I guess so.” and the matter was drop
ped.
A couple of years later a new boy ap
peared at the Miles home, and the sec
retary thought the time propitious to
renew the application. “Why, my dear
sir,” said Mr. Huntington when he
Llghtlnff a Cigar.
According to an observant Philadel
phian whose business is to sell cigars,
the careless smoker is largely respon
sible for tbe big dividends match man
ufacturers enjoy.
“Just watch it any time,” he remark
ed a few days ago, “and see if I am
not correct. The average smoker of a
cigar will talk or think regardless of
his weed until it goes out Then he
will suddenly discover the absence of
the fire which makes a cigar enjoyable.
Out from his pocket comes a match,
and in an instant it has been struck
and tbe lighted lucifer placed against
the cigar end.
“In his eagerness to get another light,
however, the smoker has, in nine cases
out of ten, forgotten to knock the
ashes off his weed. As a result the
flame from the match fails to pene
trate the ash heap, and the match
flame doesn’t cut any figure. I’ve seen
it so many times that I don’t laugh at
it any more, but it miist be .funny to
casual onlookers. After this when your
cigars go out before they are consumed
be sure and knock the ashes off before
trying to relight them. Then you will
stand a fair chance of securing another
light and at the same time ppt a kink
In the profits of the matchmakers.”—

Mine. Patti's Substitute.
To some persons a poor singer may
be better than no singer at all. but tbe
least musical person cannot fail to per
ceive the- irony of the situation de
scribed below:
Once when traveling in. the north of
Ireland, an Englishman of letters
chanced upon a small town which, to
his surprise, he found extensively filled
with announcements of a concert at
which Mme. Patti was to appear.
The price of admission to the back of
the hall being the extremely moderate
one of threepence, he hastened to se
cure a seat. After a long interval of
waiting, the manager stepped forward,
remarking:
‘Ladies and gentlemen, I regret to
say that Mme. Patti is unable to ap
pear tonight. In order, however, to
save-you from disappointment, I have
arranged that Miss Arabella Jones of
our town of Ballyslaekguthery shall
favor you with a song!”—Youth’s Com
panion. —
‘I never heard anything about it,”
said the secretary in amazement
“Probably not.” returned Mr. Hunt
ington. “In fact, I used that money to
buy a piece of property for you. I’d
just let it stand for awhile if I were
you.”.
Mr. Miles thanked him warmly and
retired somewhat mystified. Shortly
after Mr. Huntington called him into
ills private office. “By the way. Miles,”
he said, “I have sold that real estate of
yours at a pretty good advance. Here
is the check.” " '
The amount was $50,000. The prop
erty was part of a large section pur

Nnmlns Children In Japan.
The custom in naming children in
Japan is for tlie-parents on the tljjr-
teenth day after its birth to take the
child to the temple they attend, and-
the father gives three names' to the
priest, who writes eacli on a piece of
paper. These are then sliuflled about
Tith certain incantations and thrown
up in the air. The first that falls is the
one chosen. This is then written by
the priest od a consecrated piece of pa
per and given to the child's parents to
preserve. The child then receives' cer
tain gifts, two of which are important.
If a boy, two fans are presented; if a
girl, a jiot of pomade, and in each case
a packet of flax thread is added, which
signifies good wishes and a long life.

SOCIETY KLEPTOMANIACS.
They Purloin Articles of Virtu Front
the Homes of Oilicinls.
One of the leading jewelers of the
capital was somewhat taken aback one
day, says a Washington paper, by re
ceiving from the wife of a high official
an order_for half a dozen gold nails
with a jewel in the head of each and a
dozen small gold chains. He inquired
the uses to which the nails were to he
put, when his patron said:
You see, 1 have a number of very
valuable-objects of art, which,: al
though they are very expensive, are
very small and easily handled. As the
wife of an official of the government,
I am obliged to’open my house during
the season to the constituents of my
husband and the Washington curiosity
seeking public in general. On my re
ception day, therefore, my house js
crowded with all sorts of people, and
last winter I suffered the loss of sev
eral of my most valuable treasures.
I have long been trying to devise
some plan by which I can keep my
objects of art outside of my cabinets
and yet not have them stolen, for that
is the only word 1 can use in regard
to the loss of my treasures. I have
concluded that I must either nail down
some of the bric-a-brac or chain it se
curely to the table, anil hence I am go
ing to try this, remedy. That is why
I want these nails and'chains.”
This woman's predicament is not an
unusual one in Washington official cir-
cles. The kleptomaniacs who commit
the most aggravated depredations are
for the most part well known leaders
in society.
One winter social circles jn Wash
ington were greatly bewildered and
shocked by the doings of one of the
best known women in official circles.
A number of hostesses began to miss
valuable doilies from their dinner ta
bles after they had given luncheons or
dinners, and finally several of them got
together and compared notes, and sus
picion fell upon one of the women
who had been the guest at luncheons
given by those gathered at the confer
ence.
Finally the wife of a prominent dip
lomat determined to stop the raid upon
the doilies, and at the next luncheon
she seated the suspected kleptomaniac
next to her. When the doilies were
brought on. she watched her guest and
discovered that the latter laid her doily
on the table and, carelessly dropping
iier handkerchief over it, picked up
both.
The hostess, in a most charming
manner, turned to hor guest and said:
Pardon me, my dear Mrs. . but
am afraid you have my most ex
quisite doily in your handkerchief. It
so fine 1 am afraid it will be crush
ed and . therefore call your attention
to your inadvertence in taking it up
with your handkerchief.
The guest was not in the least abash
ed, and with a laugh she shook, out her
handkerchief, jmd the doily fell back
on the table, whereupon she exclaimed:
Why. dear me, so I have! How very
careless of me!”
There were significant glances all
around the table, but no more doilies
ere lost during that season.

Said to Be a Survival of Babyhood
Tendencies.
Hiram M. Stanley advances a new
explanation of the tendency to open the
mouth iu surprise and astonishment
Darwin ascribed this tendency to the
intuitive desire for quietness and ef
fectiveness of breathing and to mere
relaxation of the muscles. Mr. Stanley
finds a deeper organic reason—namely,
that the open mouth is the attention
sign, and, is a primitive and constant
reaction with the young of many ani
mals for the reception of food—for ex
ample, with birds.
Any sound or other stimulus immedi
ately causes the young bird to extend
its mouth. With young infants the
same Influence has often the same ef
fect The mouth of the infant under
such stimulation usually assumes the
sucking form, and its smile when the
finger is pointed at it may be either
nascent or degraded sucking.
Mr. Stanley maintains that the com
mon and highly useful tendency of the
very young to open the mouth to all
stimuli, visual, a lira 1. etc., continues as
a survival in after. life, being especially
brought out with stimuli of high inten
sity and unusual quality and thus be
comes a mark of surprise and astonish
ment. It is a habit very common
among boys and girls to open the
mouth under any attention. The rise
of smiling and laughter as connect
ed with wit and humor—at the basis of
which lies surprise—thus declares it
self as a kind of attention expression.
Assuming that the primary expres
sion of tiie mouth is a feediug expres
sion and that this probably has been
modified and evolved iu connection
with a variety of attention phenomena,
Mr. Stanley suggests that it would be
worth while to make a detailed study

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble
and Don’t Know it.
How To Find Out.
Fill a bottle or common glass with your
water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a
sediment or set
tling indicates an
unhealthy condi
tion of the kid

‘your linen it is
evidence of kid
ney trouble; too
frequent desire to
pass it or pain in
the back is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and blad
der are out of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed,'that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in caring rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold v/ater and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following, use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go often
