BREAKING THE HOODOO.
BY NJ. QUAD.


When the Thirteenth was brigaded
with US everybody spoke in praise of
its rank and file. No better material
could have been found in America. A
couple of weeks, however, showed the
colonel to be an egotist and a drunk
ard. and few of the company or regi-
mental officers seemed anxious to give
him credit for anything outside.
One day the regiment came out to
relieve the Fourth on post duty. AT
mid-afternoon one hundred Confederate
cavalry, divided into squade of twenty
five, attacked four full companies OF
the Thirteenth at about the same mo-
ment. One discharge of their carbines
followed by grand yell, did the bust.
ness in each instance. The same one
hundred cavalry then fell upon the re-
serve of 600 men and routed them at a
dash. One thousand men were beaten,
routed and disgraced by one hundred,
and all because the officers had not en-
forced drill and discipline and learned
how to handle them.
That was the beginning of the hoo
doc of the Thirteenth. 1t had disgraced
itself and disgraced the brigade, and
nothing short of gallant fight would
restore the prestige Two weeks after
it's rout five companies were sent out by
night to drive a score of Confederate
sharpshooters out of an old mill and
take possession. The files should have
marched in open order, ready to close
up and support each other If occasion
demanded. but the major in command
had no sense. He marched his men "as
you plea - with scores of them sing
ing as they went. The sharpshooters
heard the noise a mile away and fifteen
of them went into ambush along the
roadside and at the proper moment
opened fire. In five minutes the five COM
panies were defeated and flying back to
camp, leaving a score Of dead and
wounded in the enemy's hands. The
major sent in his resignation next day,
and the colonePs son followed. New
officers were appointed, and the briga-
der said to them:

caps and q dash forward The blue
fighting line was strengthened not a mo-
ment too soon. The enemy hurled shell
and grape-he poured volley after vol
ley-he charged again and again, but
the line stood firm, and cheered as it
stood. IT was fight of an hour before
achievements came up. Behind the log
breastworks were a few hundred living
men, their eyes still af1ame and their
faces black with powder stain; and on
the right and left and behind them more
dead and wounded than the whole brig
ade had yet lost. Not a coward had
died-not a coward had lived on. Led

A GREAT LABOR STRIKE. lH
Millions Of Workers Out

One OF the greatest labor strikes you
can possibly imagine is that which takes
place in yOur bedy when yeu eat i'm

and in it are millions and millions of
w0rkers-tissue builders. In the stomach
alone there are moro than FIVE million of
these workers, whose business 1t Is to de-

five million toiIers-these nve millions of
little microscopic pepsin makers-strike.
and millisns and millions ef other tissue
builders in ether parts of the body also
strike through sympathy. They may
strike for but short time, but it is long
enough to throw a lot of the delicate and
intricate machinery in that wonderful
workshop of yours out of repair and
cause all manner of trouble.
The way to avoid labor strikes in the
body is to supply that vast horde of arti-
sans which build 1t with proper food ma
terial, and for this purpose there is moth
