Waukesha Wants Veterans

Waukesha, Wis. w aukesha

next department encampment Of
the G.. A. r. The delegation
from w. B. Gushing post will
present an invitation from the
city at the Stevens Point en-
campment next week, asking the
veterans to meet here next year,
and will show conclusivly that
the Spring City can accommodate
all who will come. With the
great number Of large summer
hotels here the accommodations
are ample, provided the encamp-
ment meets early enough to be
outof the way of the summer
visitors. That can 0lbe easily
done, and in fact the usual time
of meeting up to this year has
been early enough for this pur-
pose. Waukesha wanted the

Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most competent
authorities. They have dispelled
the silly notion that one kind OF
food is needed for brain, another for
muscles, and still another for bones.
A correct diet will not only nurish
particular part of the body, but it
will sustain every other part. Yet,
however good your food may be, its
nutriment is destroyed by indiges-
ton or dyspepsia. You must pre-
pare for their appearance or pre-
vent their coming by taking regular
doses of GreeIe's August Flower, the
favorite medicine of the healthy
millions. A few doses aids diges-
ton, stimulates the liver to healthy
action, purifies the blood, and makes
you feel bouyant and vigorous. You

remedies at Fox Bros. Get Greere's

Coal Famine.

West Superior Wis. June r.
The coal situation at the head of
the lakes is getting to be such
that it is serious in the extreme.
There is no hard coal coming in
at all, and there has been none
for some time, while before the
strike there was very little re-
ceived here, leaving the affairs
now SO that there is very little
20 speak of, and there is a fair
demand for It at this point all
summer long, both for local and
outside consumption. But little
over 100000 tons of soft coal has
come up here during the present
season, and scarcely any is COM
ing now, the result being that
the stocks are light and the rail
roads are taking out a good deal
on their contracts of last year
which the companies were una
BILE to fill.
The result is that the docks
are left exceedingly short on all
kinds of coal and the demand
from outside points is quite
great, while comparatively little
has been sent out, the local de-
nand taking a great share of it.
With the strike and other condi-
tons prevailing for a long time,
the situation here will be more
than serious.

Dam Carried Away

Kaukauna, Wis, June. The
Lindauer Pulp Company has a
serious break in their water
power dam to repair which was
caused by high water last night.
The sluice gate was partly car
ried out then, and just below it
was piled about 1900 bundles of
ground wood pulp, which is also
swept away. The pulp is total
loss, as it soon disolves in swift
running water. The whole mill
force has been at work all day 10
stop the rushing current, which
is likely tocause other damage to
the dam, which is the property
of the Mead & Edwards Water
Power Company.
Mr.. Lindauer, who owns two
of the pulp mills on this dam, is
absent at Grand Rapids, MINI.
The break is a serious one, as it
has carried out the foundation
sill of the gate, endangering Of
her parts Of the dam, and with
the Fox river at food height it is
proving a hard break to repair.

COLORED ENVELOPES ARE BAD
Cause Much Trouble to Post ONCE
Clerks Who Work In Dimiy-
Lighted Apartments.

Colored envelopes used by some bust
ness houses in the dispatch of mail are
causing the post offices and the rail
way mail clerks considera BILE annoy
ance and trouble.
Addresses on them, unless written
with typewriter, are almost unde-
ciperable. When the fact is consiI-
cred that most of the work in hand
ling letters is done under gaslight and
on swaying mail cars, it will not seem
strange that clerks regard colored en-
velopes as a device designed for their
particular discomfort.
Red is the worst color in the spec
trum for envelope use. Blue is next.
Unless the address is written in the
blacklist of ink it appears as nothing
under the artificial light. Colors are
more endurable as they approach
white.
Many postmasters have had occa-
sion to make special suggestions to
firms that they print their envelopes
and wrappers on white paper.
Business houses which have adopted
one color and used it so long that it
is familiar trade mark dislike to
make the change, but they recognize
the Justice of the request, in view OF
the fact that it will tighten the bur
den of the clerks and assist in the
rapid and correct delivery of mail.

A HEAVY DEATH RATE.
Figures Demonstrate That MadJid

European Capif ais.

Statistics recently published by the
municipality of Madrid indicate that
the Spanish capital possesses-one
cannot say "enjoys"-an evil pre-
eminence as the most unhealthy OF
European capitals. It's death rate
for the past five years has been about
80 per 1,OO0-much more than one
third higher than the average death
rate of London.
Consumption is the chief cause of
death, which is not surprising, for
the keen, icy breeze from the Quad
arrama, which, as the Spaniards say.
will not put out a candle, but will
kill a man." must be fatal to con-
sumptive patients.
The root of the mischief seems to
be food adulteration and overcrowd-
ing, for 100000 people are contained
in $4,000 houses. That is state of
things for which there is no excuse,
unless it be the eternal want of
pence" for there is room enough
and to spare on the vast bare plain
which surrounds Madrid to build
houses enough to accommodate any
number Of people. The municipality
is going to take the matter in hand,
but experience teaches us what that
means in the land of tomorrow
or the day after tomorrow"
