cats and dogs, and in almost every

The following general orders have
been received from Gen. Lee and are
published for the information of all in

New Orleans, La, Jan. Is, 1906.
General Orders No. 38.
/. The general commanding announces
that; according to the custom hereto
fore in force, which leaves to the gem
eral commanding and the department
commanders the fixing of the date of
the reunion, the sixteenth annual re-
union of the United Confederate Vete-
rams will be held in the city of New
Orleans, La, on April 25, &c, q, 1906,
"Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, re-
spectively, those days having been
named by our host as satisfactory.
z. There are many reasons why the
reunion of 1905 should surpass any
heretofore held. The city of New Or
leans is geographically situated so as to
be easily accessible to a large section
of our federation. 1t is near the great
Trans-M Mississippi department, with its
thousands of enthusiastic old soldiers,
and the most %populous divisions of the
other departments are not distant. The
longing of the gallant remnants of the
Confederate armies to meet each other,
which each year grows stronger, the
peculiar character of tho c;t,, With -,
innumerable attractions, it's old-time
streets, its antique buildings, it's i'm
mense shipping with the countless
craft that float on the bosom of the
great river" the beauty and refine
ment of its women, the hospitality of
its p~eople-ever the most enthusiastic
Confederate the exceedingly low rate
made by the railroads, all, coupled with
the promise of its citizens (and with
them promise is p~erformance) that this
gathering shall far surpass all hereto
fore held, combine to make this meet
ing a memorable meeting. The gen.
eral commanding, then, most earnestly
urges all camp officers to strive to have
a large attendance from their camps,
CnaC CneSe aged men may once more
have the pleasure of meeting their old
comrades in arms.
3. The general commanding with
much pleasure at the re-
quest of it's most energetic president,
Mrs. w. j.. Behan, hat the C~onfeder-
ote Southern Memorial Association will
hold it's meeting at the same time.
a. The general commanding sincerely
hopes that the press of the entire coun-
try will endeavor to stir up interest in
the coming meeting and to this end he
requests that this order be published
and editorial comment be made thereon.

General Commanding.

eETEL NUT CHEWING.

Betel nut chewing is the national di-

lime and seeds of tobacco and pack
ages of Syrah, or green betel leaves.
The betel tree is among the most COM
mon in Siam, sending up Il trunk some
times full sixty feet, always, like the
cocoanut, limbless except for its bush
of u top, where, again like the cocoa,
the nuts grow in closely attached
punches, to harden and rciden before
gathered.
The cardamon seed, or Glove, Is an
extra of the well to do and especially
of the omc The common habit
among men of the country Is to add II
pinch of tobacco after first rubbing 1t
over their gums. The bright red saliva
from chewing is, in the town house,

house Sits between the open bamboo

nlccties. But always on formal occa-
sion, even in the jungle edge, the betel
nut chewer carries his box for the free
ly flowing juice that stains the teeth
a deep red, which among the better
class with care and attention becomes
n highly polished black.
And this is true even OF Slams most
enlightened classes, whom contact with
the outside world appears not to win
from tho betel nut and discolored teeth.
In Bangkok 1 talked with one of royal
blood and his wife, both of whom had
ived several years in England, yet the
teeth of each were black as ebony, and
the woman frankly expressed her dis
