Wheat to Russia

New York.-The shipment of a car.
go Of 1872, 900 bushels Of grain from
gulf ports direct to Odessa was an
on produce exchange.
This is believed to be the first in
stance in a number of years in which
the United States has shipped wheat
to points in southern Russia whence
is usually shipped the surplus product
of the Russian wheat fields to Fin.
ropean points.
The shipment is due to the fact
that the Russian government sharnlv
advanced freight rates.

DR.. TALKS OF FOOD
Pres. of Board of Health.

What shall eat?" is the daily in
quiry the physician is met with. l do
not hesitate to say that in nay judg-
ment, large percentage of disease is
caused by poorly selected and improp-
erly prepared food. My personal ex-
perience with the fully-cooked food,
known as Grape-Nuts, enables me to
speak freely of its merits.
From overwork, / suffered several
yea with malnutriton, palpitation of
the heart, and loss of sleep. Last
summer I was led to experiment per-
sonally with the new food, which /
used in conjunction with good rich
cows milk. In a short time after l
commenced it's use, the disagreeable
symptoms disappeared, my hearts ac-
ton became steady and normal, the
functions of the stomach were proper
ly carried out and l again slept as
soundly and as well as in my youth.
Il look upon Grape-Ndts as a per-
feet food, and no one can gainsay but
that it has a most prominent place in
a rational, scientific system of feeding.
Any one who uses this food will soon
be convinced of the soundness of the
principle upon which it is. manufac-
tured and may thereby know the facts
as to its true worth" Read, 1.-THE Road

One way Americans of the present
day have of honoring the immigrants
of the past was illustrated last month,
when statue of Commodore John
Barry, the father of the American
navy, was unveiled in Philadelphia
Barry was an Irishman, born in 1745
1t was not till 1850 that he reached
America as sailor, coming here
from the West Indies. He was en-
ployed by Philadelphia merchants and
owned some ships in 1776, when he
was put in command of the Lexing-
ton, after volunteering to serve the
colonies on the sea. He captured the
first British warship taken by a rev.
olutionary cruiser. He had been in
America, or, more correctly, in bust
ness dealings with Americans, only
ten years when he began to fight for
them. John Paul Jones, another of
the revolutionary naval heroes, was
also an immigrant, but he began to
fight for us when his connection with
America and his interest in it had
been much less than those of Barry.
The foreigner to whom the land of
the free hearts hope and home" has
appealed has nearly always been
ready to take up arms in it's defense;
and when he has done heroic things
the whole nation has applauded.

China Asks for Seeds.

Another proof of the awakening
going on In China is furnished by the
statement that the government of the
Flowery kingdom has, through repre-
sentatives at Washington, applied to
our authorities for seeds and samples
of every variety of plant of recognized
Importance raised in our country.
China is on the search for desirable
crops, and apparently has learned a
lesson by recent experience with
famine, due to the failure of products
on which the people rely for food.
Nor is this all, says Troy Times.
China will experiment with the prod
ucts Of other countries as well, and
as she has a wide variety of soil and
climate there is no reason to doubt
that many new and valuable food arti-
cles will thus be secured. Further
more, in coming to the United States
she gets expert advice and friendly
and effective cooperation. The de-
partment Of agriculture has labored
long and successfully in the same d.
rection and has done vast amount
OF valuable work in developing and
Improving crops. The hints borrowed
from Washington bid fair to serve
most beenfcent ends in China.

DIED IN PRISON PENS
Record of Those Who Passed
Away in Military Confine-
n,ents Is an Appal-
ling One.

The largest confederate prison was
at Andersonville, Ga, where 45,613
union soldiers were imprisoned. The
prison had its maximum number on
August s. 1864, when the rolls show
ed the presence of 33,114. Death
claimed 1912, or % per cent. of the
entire number. Every day the death
roll averaged 80. The greatest num-
Der of deaths occurred on August %,
1864, when 127 yielded up their lives.
The largest military prison in the
north was at Elmira where 1916 pris-
oners were confined in an open pen or
stockade. The death list reached 1894,
about 25 per cent. In March, 1865, the
greatest mortality occurred-495-or
16.5 per cent. of all the deaths. All
except six of the dead were buried in
a field which was afterward plowed up
and planted with wheat, and now
neither summer nor winter shows a
sign of where 5000 hapless confeder-
ates were laid away.

STILL LIVE FOR US
Funeral March for Heroic
Dead Has Meaning Be-
yond Mere Honor to
the Fallen.

VERY year, in the full tide of
spring, at the height of the SYM
phony of flowers and love and
life, there comes a solemn pause, and
through the silence the nation hears
the lonely pipe of death.
Year after year lovers wandering
under the apple boughs and through
the clover are surprised with sudden
tears as they see black-veiled figures
stealing through the morning to a SOL
dier's grave.
Year by year the comrades of the
dead follow, with public honor, pro-
cession and commemorative flags and
funeral march-tribute from us who
have inherited nations glory to the
heroes who gave it.
AS surely as this day comes round
we are in the presence of the dead.
But not all the associations of this
day are sad; some of them are tri-
umphant, even joyful
We seem to hear the funeral march
become pean. Our heroic dead still
live for us, and bid us think of life,
not death-of life to which in their
youth they lent the passion and glory
of the spring.

Witches Still Believed In.

Neglected by the powers, witches
ceased to be so notorious, but the be-
lief continued to exist, and does exist
now, in rural parts of Scotland and
England; and in England and France,
even in the towns, fortune tellers,
whether they charge a guinea or a
shilling for their advice, are witches
snder the terms of the old statutes,
and flourish abundantly, but as they
are not burned they are supposed by
superficial observers to have been ex-
terminated by school boards and cleo
trio lighting. The blacker sort of
witch who "overlooks" and casts
spells on man and beast may be found
in many rural regions north and
south. One of them was brought be-
fore squire and ]. P. of my &C.
quaintance as dangerous nuisance.
He said to her, solemnly: You know,
Betty, the Bible says Thou shalt not
suffer a. witch to live in the parish I"
and she migrated, under certain con-
diions of compensation, to another
parish.-Andrew Lang, in the London
Post.

KNITTING MACHINE ROMANCE.
Invented That Tilted Lover Might
Have His Revenge.

Romance may certainly figure in
many of the knitted waistcoats and
gorgeous stockings worn by our I'm
dergraduates of to-day, but these have
not so romantic an origin as the first
of these articles produced in this
countrys
For tradition has it that William
Lee, who in the sixteenth century in
vented the knitting frame on which
both stockings and waistcoats were
produced mechanically, was driven to
this piece of ingenuity by the cruel
f1outing of the lady he loved, who hap
pened to be a stocking knitter.
Enraged at his failure to make an
impression on her heart, he sought to
make it on her purse by killing her
means of livelihood; and one is glad
to read that all stocking makers COM
bined to Illustrate his cruel purpose,
with the result that he fed with his
invention to France, where he finally
died OF a broken heart, whether for
love of his lady or of his spoiled in
vention, tradition does not say.-Lon-
don Chronicle.

Memorial day may and ought to
have a meaning beyond mere honor to
the dead 1t celebrates and solemnly
re-affirms from year to year national
act of enthusiasm and faith. 1t en-
bodies in the most impressive form
our belief that to act with enthusiasm
and faith is the condition of acting
greatly. To fight out war men must
believe something and want something
with all their might. So must they do
to carry out anything else to an end
worth reaching.
Peace calls for its patriotic devo-
ton, no less than war. And, stripped
of the direct associations which gave
rise to it, this is day when by COM
mon consent we pause to become con-
scious of our national honor and to re-
joice in it, to recall what our country
has done and is doing for us, and to
ask ourselves what we can do for our
country in return.
The great French soldier, de Latour
d'Auvergne, was the hero of many bat
ties, but remained by his own choice
in the ranks. Napoleon gave him
sword and the official title The First
Grenadier of France" When he was
killed the emperor ordered that his
heart should be entrusted to his regi-
ment-that his name should be called
at every roll call and that his next
comrade should answer, Dead upon
the field of honor." In the keeping of
this nation are the hearts of many
heroes; we treasure them in conse
Grated ground, and when their names
are called we answer in flowers, Dead
upon the field of honor"

In the great basin between the
Rockies and the Sierra Nevadas lie
the ghosts of many dead lakes Riv-

once lay there, only Great Salt Lake,
Lake Tahoe and Bear Lake are left.

and whose bodies have been borne
across the sea to be buried in Airing
ton, have made this the largest city of
patriotic dead on the globe. This 30th

low green mound of the extensive field
covered with flowers and immortelles.
There will be a repetition of the an

Alas. the column of ex-union SOL

the few who participate are for the
most part bowed with age and in
creased disability which time has
wrought
The patriotic organizations, sons and
daughters of veterans, and the loyal
people have taken up the work
which older hands have had to lay
down. The spirit of gratitude and de-
votion to the memory of the country's
defenders inspires the whole nation
to-day as it did in 1868.
