FIRST WORK HORSE PARADE.
New York to Honor and Protect the
Faithful Laborine Beast.

For the first time in New York city
work horse parade will be held un-
der the auspices of the Woman's aux
Hilary of the American Society For the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals on
Memorial day. The New York Work
Horse Parade association was formally
organized to carry on the event. If
sufficient response is received by the
leaders in this movement it is intended
to make this horse show of the working
animals an annual feature of New York
life. BE-
With the exception of London and
Boston, where work horse parades have
been held for several years. with mark
ed results in better treatment of draft
animals, New York will be the first of
the larger cities of the world to attempt
to carry out this work.
The parade will assemble at Wash
ington square and march up Fifth ave
nue. to Madison square. where ii will
be reviewed before the A. S. L. c. A.
building, and medals, money prizes,
badges, diplomas and blue ribbons Civ
en- to the successful contestants. The
rules of the competition have been
framed to recognize as the two chief
points. length of service and evidence
of the best care and treatment in the
horses entered. The work horses will
be classified according to age and
length of service under the ownership
pf az Il, /, .lrn ~,
business. Every working horse, ex-
cept cab horses. will he eligible to COM
pete. Dock tailed horses or those sick.
lame or out of condition or unfit for
| work will be barred.
The value. action. style. youth or
beauty of the work horse parade con-
testants will count less with the judges
than their condition. The older horses
will receive more consideration than
| the younger and perhaps more comely
animals. provided they have grown old
gracefully under good treatment and
care. The judges will be instructed tt
| consider the following points: First
| does the horse go sound and breathe
| freely? Second, Is he free from gals
| and sores? Third. is he In good hard
working condition? Fourth, do his
manners indicate that he has beer
kindly treated? Fifth, Is his harness
comfortable and well fitting?

CUT THIS OUT
A VALUABLE PIECE OF iNFoRMA
TON FOR YOU.
BETTER THAN SUFFERING
THE SECRET OF A SUCCESSFUL
REMEDY GIVEN TO ALL.

There has been so much agitation
lately-about impure drugs and foods
that people want to know nowadays
what ingredients are in the foods they
eat-or the medicines they take into
their system. Medicines of known
Composition" are growing in public IA
yOr.
The publication of prescription is a
new idea-and one that has merit. 1t
gives a valuable scientific formula
without charge-and it is straightfor-
ward and honest.
Here is a prescription for Kidney
Trouble that has worked wonders in a
large number of cases:
l OF. Essence of Pepsin, l OF. Fluid
Bucara, 3 Ozs, Syrup of Burdock. The
dose for adults is teaspoonful before
each meal and at bed time.
The prescription will save you the ex
penses of doctors visits-and can be
filled at your druggists at a small en-
pense-or you can compound it your
self in your own home. 1t is composed
of pure vegetable extracts only.
1t does great good in all cases of kid
ney trouble, backaches, rheumatism
weak bladder, or difficulties arising
from the presence of uric acid in the
blood.
1t acts gently and decidedly, reliev
ing all these troubles very rapidly
pain and discomforts diminish with
each dose.
1t promotes the flow of gastric ant
pancreatic juices. thereby aiding diges
ton, builds up the tissues, removes al
impurities from the blood, regulates
the appetite. 1t also will relieve ever
] the worst case of catarrh.

the brick sidewalk on Hill street In
Hannibal. This set forth of my OWE
knowledge, for on Memorial day of
1902 Mark Twain himself positively
identified and acknowledged 1t, and /
took a photograph of the wanderer
standing at the front door of his old
home. The Illustration ON this page
is redrawn from that photograph. That
was the occasion of the humorist's lat
est and perhaps last visit to his boy
hood home and haunts 1t was the st.
Louis Post-Dispatch and not mere curl
osity that was responsible for my pres
ence in Hannibal at the time. l am
positive that it was Mark Twain who
stood at the door of the old house, for
| went up on the train with him and
witnessed his signature, IS. L. Glenn
ems" on the hotel register, heard him
ask for room with private bath and
heard the clerk inform him that he
might have a room near the bathroom,
but the bath was not private.
Mark Twain lived in that house a
dozen years or more before he began
to rove again, and after that at inter
walls for few years he reappeared.
Then for nearly fifty years he never
spent more than a day at time in
Hannibal until the occasion mentioned,
when lie went back and paid the old
town visit of nearly a week.
The house stands a block or so up
from the Mississippi river. Tom Saw
yer, who was Sam Clemens, could slide
out Of his back yard and into the back
yar1 of Huck Finn, whose family name
was Blankenship. without leaving the
block. Huck lived on the next street
north. OF Huck's house l also took a
| photograph. but that house has burned
down since. The reason l am positive
that Tom Sawyers house has not been
destroyed Is that could not have fail.

IA m ARK TWAIN Is going to settle
N down. Don't laugh. He says
Iva SO himself, and when was he
known To tell lie? He is not
even on the official administration list
Of AnaniaSeS. He has spent fully for
~ years telling the serious. sober truth
in his own way, and when he makes
the solemn declaration that he is 60
ing to build n home at a certain spot
and stay there it behooves the public
TO give him the benefit of the doubt.
For nearly seventy years Mark Twain
has been a wanderer. He was forci-
bly, removed from the place of his
birth at the tender age of three by be-
ing carried in arms TO a farm wagon
that was bound to another town with
the Clemens household goods. The eX
ample thus set him by his elders he
has been unable to resist, SO ever since
about 1888 he has been moving Now
and then he has tried to settle down.
He has made brave efforts in that di-
rection, but always the pesky little mi
crobe of wanderlust has stirred him to
be up and away. In his time he has
enjoyed living nj many places. but al
ways he has preferred somewhere else.
Mark Twain has been constitution
al tramp all his life. He was actually
Il tramp printer in his later bOyhOod.
though by no means one of the pam
handling sort. Throughout his more
