to Meridian, destroying all railway COM
munications in Mississippi preparatory to
our 1864 campaign. Gen. Grant returned
from Washington in December to Tennes-
see. He met Gen. Sherman in Nashville
and called there to meet him several Corps
Commanders Of the Army of the Tennessee
and Gen. Sheridan of the Army of the
Cumberland. If remember rightly, there
were present Gems. Grant, Sherman, Sheri-
dan, Mcpherson, Logan, Rawlins and my
self. All of us Of the Army of the Ten
nessee were a hard-looking crowd. None
OF us had seen Nashville or any base of
supplies since we had marched from the
Mississippi River. to Chattanooga and had
been hard at work building railways and
foraging. We arrived in Nashville late in
the afternoon and Gen. Sherman took us
to Gen. Grants headquarters. Gen. Grant
suggested that We should call upon the
Military Governor of Tennessee, Andrew
johnson. and pay our respects to him. We,
Of course. followed Gen. Grant and were
introduced TO Gov. Johnson. I remember
that our uniforms were greatly worn, one
or two of us wearing blouses with army
overcoats, and he looked at us with very
quiZZical eye, until Gen. Grant said. to
excuse us, that he had not given us time
since we reached the city to change our
suits, but Grant knew we had no others.
Gov Johnson was then very radical man.
and was very emphatic in informing us
that while he was Military Governor of
Tennessee no rebel would receive much con-
sideration from him. and brought his fist
down on piano in the room. with such
force that the sound from it startled us all,
and we left there with the idea that rebels
in Tennessee had better get out. but we
soon found that his words were much
stronger than his acts. for l hardly ever
got my hands on rebel stock or supplies
that did not find johnson trying to pull
them OF.

SICKNESS FROM BAD MILK.
In Order to Have It Right It Should
Be Used the Same Day
Taken from Cow.

Sweet milk that is over "a hours old
is not fit for food. Until the milk pass
es through fermentation, and forms
what is known as buttermilk or sour
whey, old milk is really unfit for food,
says Medical Talk for the Home. The
practice Of delivering milk in the cities
at such times as that the consumer of
the milk shall not use it until after it is
"a hours old is a very bad practice, and
is undoubtedly the cause of much of
the sickness during the hot months.
Milk should be used the same day it
is MIXED from the cow. The sooner
the better. just as quickly as the ami
NAL heat is taken out of it, by proper
stirring and cooling, is the time when
it is the most palatable and nutritious.
Those who like milk warm from the
COW, and can obtain it in that state.
should use it in preference to any other.
But milk used for ordinary purposes
had better be cooled and aerated. If DOS
sible, and used the same day it is taken
from the COW. - r.. r.
Even though the milk is kept from
souring, after it is more than "a hours
old it Is unfit for food, and should never
be used, especially as food for infants.

SYMBOLIC OF STATES
STATUES REPRESENTATIVE OF
THE LOUISIANA PURCHASE.
FOURTEEN TYPICAL FIGURES
They Are Seated on Pedestals in the
Colonnade Of States at the st.
Louis Fair-Masterpieces
Of Statuary.

st. Louis.-The panorama that is
spread out before the multitude in the
Plaza of st. Louis at the worlds fair is
so magnificent, so satisfying as a unit,
in fact so complete, that it seems almost
sacrilege even to attempt to separate it
into it's integral parts and examine them
in detail.
We feel, as we feast our eyes on it's
ravishing beauty, whether by daylight
when all the splendor of the rainbow
gardensmay be seen, or by night when
the changing hues of red and amber and
green supply the color that the flowers
are wont to provide, that there is not
one supertlous touch. not one discord-
ant note. The picture is composed
along lines of symmetry, with the cli-
max, the great white Festival Hall, in
the center, and the beautiful facades of
the palaces of Education and Electricity
acting as essential accessories to lead
the eye up to that climax. Thus the ar
fist composes his picture, and thus only
can the picture be a success.
Yet the picture, as one sees it from the
main launch landing. is not all there is

Only one of these figures is so char
acteristic that it could not by any
possibility be mistaken for the goddess
of any other than it's own state, yet all
are accompanied by accessories that give
the requisite local color"
The one not to be mistaken is that'of
Minnesota, modelled by that brilliant
and resourceful sculptor, Gustav Ger
ZACH. Like all the others, it is the par

the head is crown of wheat. Wheat

the states, for the northern part of the

TALLY wheat-growing country. For
this reason the discarded hand reaper
might serve as an accessory for many
another figure in the adjoining henley
cles. The artist did not stop with the
crown and sheaf of wheat. He seated
his goddess on log of wood from the
northern forests, and at her side he
placed an overturned Greek urn. The
never-failing stream of water from the
mouth of the Greek vase has always
been symbol of the Source whether
of the river, the soul, poetic inspiration

to it. There are details that reveal
themselves only to the pedestrian who
climbs the pink granitoid steps, wanders
about among the fountains and cascades
and follows the curves of the Colonnade
of States. BY no means the least inter-
esting of these details are the heroic
statues that represent the II states &C.
quired by the Louisiana purchase
treaty.
The colonnade, that spreads like great
white wings to the right and the left of
Festival Hall, is composed of seven
hemicycles on each side The entire
composition Is great architectural
screen, formed of stately Ionic columns
and massive pylons that are surmounted
by bronze eagles. Each hemicycle con-
stitutes little shrine in which is en-
throned the deity of one of the Louisi-
ana purchase states.
The sculptors who modelled these del
ties sought to impart to the plastic clay
the characteristics of the various states.

CAUSES MENTAL JAUNDlCE.
Disease That Is Said to Be the Re-
suit Of Worry and Dis
contentedness.

A new disease, or at least new name
for an old disease, has been discovered
by noted brain specialist of London.
1t is mental jaundfce. Worrying over
trifies is one cause; Greed, pride and
prejudice are others. Whatever the
cause, the effect is to make one look
upon this beautiful world of ours with
discomfort and to find continual fault
with our fellow travellers toward the
grave, writes Robert Webster Jones, in
Housekeeper. LET a-person once: be-
come infected with this disease" says
the specialist, land nothing but the
most rigorous measures will effect q
cure I believe mental jaundice is on the
increase, especially among the upper
classes. It is the source of more unhap-
piness, to the patient as well as to those
about him, than almost any other dis
ease. Physical jaundice produces yell
lowness of skin, which. after awhile,
becomes yellowness of the eyes. This
produces q condition Of the eye which
makes the patient see everything yell
low. Mental jaundice is analogous. It's
victim sees nothing in its true co1ors
or proportions. Everything is distorted
by his diseased mental condition
What is the remedy?: The specialist
does not say, but it may be assumed
that the cure rests: almost wholly with
the patient. Optimism may be made a
habit as well as pessimism It Is well
within ones power to open the windows
of his soul and let in the sunshine
Cheerfulness produces both mental and
physical health. Let US avoid getting
into that condition which invites mem
tai jaundice. : It is best combated by q

MITTS AGAIN IN FAVOR.
Pretty Designs and openwork Stitches
Are Noticed Among
Those Worn.

The day of mitts is returning and their
popularity is due to the Marie Antoin-
cite sleeve. This, says the Brooklyn
Eagle, is little sleeve which is tight to
the elbow, where it is met by 81 wide
ruffle of lace which falls off the arm.
This sfeeveis used for dinnersgow and
for evening dresses. It has been worn
more or less all summer and will be
the fashionable sleeve of the coming
winter. 1t is particularly handsome as
an opera sleeve, being neither too short
for good taste nor too long for elegance.
The mitt, be it black or white, is long,
is made of silk, of course, and is en-
broidered upon the back. The dainty
knitted silk mitt is affected by women
who can afford to hire the knitting done
by hand. It is open work, is done in
flesh color, and is mass of intricate
stitches. The seed designs are most
popular and the openwork drop stitches,
so well known to the knitters of bygone
days, will be seen. At dinner given
recently a guest wore mitts of flesh-col-
ored silk with small conventional
raised vine upon the back, all in pink
and green. Her fingers were loaded
with handsome rings and bracelets
adorned her arms. Another guest pres
ent wore black silk mitts embroidered
upon the back with pink roses These
roses were raised and were remarkably
pretty, matching the gown, which was q
she'll pink wolfe, perfectly.

is especially rich In swinging CIrveS,
and the face is tremendously strong.
The second, the conception of Carl C.
Tefft, has the scythe and the oak tree
at the back, and there are suggestions of
both wheat and corn. The goddess of
Nebraska is essentially an agricultural
deity. Had her face been little more
severe and dignifed she might have
passed for Ceres herself. Yet it is evil
dent that such was not Mr.. Packers
idea. He has placed his figure on q
classic settee that would have been a
fitting seat for the goddess of the harvest:
but he has associated her with the an
vii, the eagle and the dictum of Ne
braska, Equality before the Law"
The Colorado statute, by A. Zeller, sug-
gests chiefly the precious product of the
mine. On the head of the goddess is a
helmet surmounted by an eagle, proud
bird of the lofty mountain peaks Mis-
souri's deity, by A. S. Calder, holds the
winged, serpent-entwined staff of Mer-
curry, the patron of commerce, in her
right hand. At her back is the homo
plenty, pouring out fruit and grain.
Louisiana's goddess is rather god
dess than a representation of state.
Mr.. Schwarz has given her no device ex-
cept sprig of agave, that is somewhat
typical of the southern states. The
statue is so strong in modelling and so
splendid in pose that one does not feel
the need of suggestive accessories.
Mr.. Jaegers has given his Arkansas
deity the cotton boil and the bear for
symbols; but it is comfortable, ami
able bear on which she can rest her arm
with impunity.. Oklahoma, as she is
pictured by Mr.. Conway, is classic fig
ure that reminds one of the portraits of
Roman matrons. At her side is a highly
decorated pillow and the ornament in her
hair is of wheat. Montana, by A. c. Sko-
dix, is another strongly classic figure in
voluminous draperies. Her device is the
miners shovel. At her back grows the
sturdy oak, and in her hair she has
placed spray of northern laurel.
Not second in interest even to the
state homes on the Plateau of the States
and the Trail. are these shrines at which
the citizen from whatever section of the
great Louisiana purchase territory may
bow in gratitude and pride. These are
the affairs on which the patriotic resi-
dent of the middle west may lay his Of
fering of incense. They are somethine
more than artistic and essential decora-
lions. Like almost every feature of the
great worlds fair, they are full of mean
ing that is not for the casual observer.
They are not merely parts of great AMI
glorious architectural scheme. They
represent the tangible spirit of IA of the
greatest states in the union.

territory. The wheat, the logs and the
source would not be applicable to any
other state of the IA. ...-... -.:
Two of the states, Indian Territory
and South Dakota, have made use of the
figure of an Indian squaw; but how Diff
ferent are the two! The southern sQuaw,
her head bowed and her eyes downcast,
is type of patient resignation that can
not but appeal to those who know the
story of the Indian women and in fact
the Indian tribes of the southwest. Mr.
Heber has added the wheat and other
suggestive accessories, most significant
among which is the water jar of quaint
Indian pottery. In the South Dakota
goddess, Mr.. L. o. Lawrie, one of the
most daring of the younger generation
of American sculptors, has given us an
altogether different type of Indian wom-
an. She is erect and naughty, her head
turned to one side, as if in scorn. She
Is OF the race of men who may be killed
without being crushed. Her only sug-
gestive accessories are the scythe and
the logs on which she rests.
The statue of Kansas, by A. A. Vein
mann, is highly suggestive in that the
figure is seated upon fatted steer and
holds in her hand an ear of corn, one Of
the chief resources of Kansas wealth.
