very difficult thing for an intelligent

The Worthy Son Of an Ex-Confederate

To Maj. II. A. Ricketts,, Mexico, Mo, Treas
urer Ex, Confederate Association:
KANSAS City, Mo-, Aug. pa
herewith enclose checks on vari
GUS banks in Kansas City amount
ing to two hundred and sixty-foul
dollars (S264,) which you viii,
please pass into the treasury fol
the benefit of the ex-Confederate
Home at Higginsville, Mo. This
money was procured by my young
friend, Mr.. Ed M. Smith, JUNO,
member of the live stock firm o.
Larimer, Smith & Bridgeford.
from his fellow commission mer.
chants doing business at the Kan.
sas City stock yards. You will
call to mind who Mr.. Smith is
when you remember that some
time ago l told you that, on the
occasion of a visit to Kansas City
l was hunted up by a certain
young man who desired to make a
subscription to the Confederate
Home, his interest in the matter
arising from the fact that his faith.
er was a Confederate soldier and
who, while at the head of his COM
pany Che being captain of the
nineteenth Virginia Infantry was
killed at the battle OF the VIII.
derness in Virginia on May
5, 1864. Mr.. Smith was tina,
young man. He makes his con.
tribution of $50 from a double mo.
tive-as a mark of respect to the
memory of his father, Abraham
Smith, for whom he cherishes the
deepest love of which a son is cap.
able, and as an evidence of his sym
pathy with and love for those brave
men, those great-hearted men who
wore the gray, strong and firm in
the conviction that the fight in
which they were engaged was made
from motives both worthy and hon.
orable. Please acknowledge re.
ceipt of these checks to Mr.. Smith
and also to me. Let me suggest
that you send to Mr.. Smith a copy
of your forthcoming financial re-
port of the work of the x-Confed-
crate Association, as he is very
much interested in that work, and
is anxious to see it prove an entire
success.

Drink Buttermilk.

Drink Buttermilk.
There would be more buttermilk
than beer sold in st. Louis in the
summer time if the people only
knew the good qualities of the for
mer drink. There is nothing in
the simple drinks which exercises a
more beneficial influence on the
general health. 1t is at once food
and medicine. The Tactic acid ii
contains acts on the whole digestive
system while as food it has already
undergone a semi. Indigestion in the
churning to which it has been SUBJ
jected. Physicians are every day
increasing the amount of it that
they prescribe for their patients,
and in cases of liver and kidney
disease it is invaluable. Instances
are numerous of persons afilct-
ed with Bright's disease living for
many years in comparative comfort
with no other medicine than a
daily supply of buttermilk.

The Vice-Preident and the Ferry
man.
1t is said that a ferryman at New
York was rude to Vice President
Morton the other day. That gen.
tleman wanted to catch ferryboat;
he arrived too late; the gate was
shut and the boat was moving off.
He demanded that the gate be open
ed. The ferryman responded not
and the e-President, like Lord
Ullin, was left lamenting.
.sCome back, come back" he cried in grief
Across the wei, salt water;
you've left your owa Vice President,
Which same you hadn't oughter.
OF course this was very dreadful
Mr.. Morton was indignant. Mr.
Morton's friends were indignant
But to a plain, ordinary being who
is not dazzled by the awful great.
mess of Vice Presidents it seems thaI
the ferryman came pretty close tt
doing his duty. IL plain Johr
Smith should arrive too late for tn,
ferryboat and should find the gat.
shut and the boat moving away h,
would receive scant sympathy
should he raise a hullabaloo.
Besides, this little episode ha
given Mr.. Morton a chance to ge
his name before the public in hi
official capacity, so the bit of so
called rudeness was a regular wind
