THE reunion of the Confederate vet
Grams in Louisville last week was one
of the most successful, from every
standpoint, that has ever been held.
The parade of the old fellows was a
fine yet pathetic show. They marched
three miles in splendid fettle, without
showing any sign of the fatigue they
must have felt. They were on dress
parade, in their faded grey, and the
glory of their history gave them
strength to go through the ordeal
without faltering.

.ZADKIEL or THE ALMANAC.
Richard James Morrison Was a Man
of Brilliance in Service Of
England.

The original ..Zadkiel," an English
man, was an interesting person. His
name was Richard James Morrison,
whose father is described as "a gem
tleman pensicner under George III, :"
while his grandfather had been cap
tain in the service Of the East India
company. Entering the royal navy the
year after Trafalgar as fist votun-
teer, Morrison saw much boat service
in the Adriatie, and afterWard shared
in a brilliant and single-handed VIC
tory gained by his ship over a
Franco-Neapolitan squadron. = After
having served as lieutenant and mas
ter, he entered the coast-guard in 1927.
and for rescuing life from shipWreck
in 1928 the Society for the Preserva-
ton of Life from Shipwreek--the par~
ent Of the present Royal National Life

a medal, which he appears TO have.
amply deserved, since he had 10 retire
from the coastguard in 1929 through
i'll health induced by exposure on the
occasion Of this rescue. 1t was he
who, in 1924, presented to the admir-

German army Discipline.

Discipline is severe in the German
army and the treatment Of privates is
sometimes unjustiiable. At Dessau a
sergeant who had been drinking to ex-
cess insulted two young women who
were escorted by a couple of. men in
the ranks. The priVates protested to
the minor officer, who drew his sword
and attacked them. in his drunkenness
wounding one Of the girls. In the af-
fray which followed the sergeant was
dfsarmed and felIed to the floor All
three were put on trial. The sergeant
was sentenced to prison for five
months, while the unfortunate priVates
were condemned TO five years behird
the bars at hard labor. were dismissed
from the service ard were deprived Of
their civil rights. Service as a private
in an army SO regulated cannot be
cause of pride in time of peach. Y.

would cut your liver out for a shilling,
and every woman was drunk on gin.
What there is about gin that makes it
the national beverage for bad people
beats me, for it looks like water,
tastes like medicine and smells like
cold storage eggs. At home when a
person takes a drink of beer or whisky
he at least looks happy for minute,
and maybe he laughs but here nobody
laughs unless somebody gets hurt, and
that seems to tickle everybody in the
White Chapel district
The people look mad and savage
when they are not drinking, as though
they were only looking for an oppor-
tunity to commit murder, and then
when they take a drink Of gin, instead
Of smiling and smacking their lips as
though it was good and braeed them
up, they look as though they had been
stabbed with dirk and they put on a
look of revenge, as though they would
like to wiring a child's neck or cut holes
in the people they meet.
Two drinks Of gin makes q man or
woman look as though they had swaI-
lowed a buzz saw. always thought
drinking liquor made people think
they were enjoying themselves, or that
they took it to drive away care and
make them forget their sorrows. but
when these people drink gin they seem
to do it the way an American drinks
carboIic acid. to end the whole bust
ness quick.
At home the drinlSer drinks to make
him feel like he was at a picnic. Here
every drinker acts like q suicide, who
only hopeE that be may commit a MUIR
der before the gin ends his career.
And there are hundreds of thousands
Of people in this town who have no
ambition except to get a bit of bread
to sustain them till they can get q
drink of gin. and gradually they let up
on bread entirely and feed on gin. and
look like mad dogs and snar at every
body they see, as much as to say:
What are you going to do about it,
A good square American meal would
give them lit, and they would go to
a hospital and die If the meal could
not be got out of them.
Gosh, but I was glad TO get out OF
the White Chapel district, and kept
looking back for fear one Of the men
or women would slit me up the back
with a butcher knife. and laugh like
an insane asylum inmate.
Do you know. those people who
drink gin and so hungry are different
from our American murderers. Our
murderers will assault you with a
smile, rob You with a joke on their
tongues end. and give you back car
fare when they hold you up, and #
they murder you they viii do 1t easy
and lay you out with your hands
across on your breast and notify the
coroner, but your White Chapel MUIR
derer wants to disemboWel you and

For Growing Girls.

West Pembroke, Me, March 2l.-Mrs.
A. 8. Smith, OF this place, says that
Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best remedy
for growing girls. Mrs. Smith empha-
sizes her recommendation by the follow
ing experience
idy daughter was thirteen years old
last November, and 1t II now two years
since she was first taken with Crazy
Spells that would last a week and would
then pass of. In a month she would
have the spells again. AT these times
she would eat very little, and was very
yellow, even the whites Of her eyes would
be yellow.
The doctors gave US no encourage
ment, they all said they could not help
her. After taking one box of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, she has not had one bad
spell. OF course, we continued the treat
ment until she had used in all about a
dozen boxes, and NE still give them to
her occasionally, when she is not feeling
well. Dodd,s Kidney Pills are certainly
the best medicine for. growing girls
Mothers should Iced the advice Of
Mrs. Smith, for by SO doing they may
save their daughters much pain and sick
ness and ensure a healthy, happy future
for them.
