WILL YOU LEAVE Us HERE TO Dlr2

When our country called for men,
We came from forge and mill;
From workshop, farm and factory.
The Union 3 ranks 70 fill
We left cur pleasant. happy homes.
And firesidss we loved so well.
To vsnquish sli the Unions foes.
Or fall where others fell.
But now il prisons dread we anguish.
And 1t Is our constant cry,
''Oh, sc who yet can save US.
VIII you leave US here to die?"
Tue voice Of SANDER tells you
That our hearts were weak with fear.
That all, or nearly all Of US.
Were captured 10 the rear;
But the scars upon cur bodies.
From musket balls AMI shell.
The missing limit, the shattered ann,
A truer tale will tell.
We have tried to 90 our GS!y.
In sight Of God on high;
''Oh, We, who yet can save us.
Will you leave US here to die?"
There are hearts with hope still beating
Within our pleasant Northern home.
Waiting, watching for the footsteps
That may never, never come.
In Southern prisons piniug.
Aeagre, tsttered, pale and gsunt.
Growing weaker, daily weaker,
From hunger, cold and want;
Here your brethren, sons and husbands,
Poor hapiess csptiyes lie;
oh. ye who yet can save us.
Win you leave US here to die?"
Just without our prison gate
There Is a graveyard Close at hand,
Where lie ten thousand Union men,
Beneath the Georgia sand:
And scores On scores are laid beside.
AS day succeeds the day;
And thus it must ever be,
Till all shall pass away;
And the last can say when dying.
With upturned glaring eye,
Both faith and love are dead g home.
And they have left US here to lie.
Oh, ye who could have saved US.
Why did you leave US here to die?"

REMEDY FOR LIVER TROUBLE

Generally speaking. liver troubles

withhold the feed a long time and
then allow 1t in over amount Is one
OF the most fruitful sources OF dises.

contaminated with fltA, or which has
stood In warm place or in the sun.

posture to drsughts, cold rains. or

during the Noting season, are all con.
ducive to indigestion.

Inflammation OF the liver is quickly
followed by death unless immediate
relief can be given. The symptous
are yellow appearance Of the skin
and yellow or slightly bloody evacua-
tons.
Ono OF the chief indications of this
disorder is laneness, especially of the
right leg, and when this shows itself
you may be pretty sure that infamma-

treatment Of birds so affected is not
profitable unless they are very valu-

grains Of bicarbonate of soda after

may be given twice a week to disin-

Spare the Doves

The turtle doves are great feeders
on the seeds of weeds, and do much to
protect growing crops from harm
through the ravages of those weeds
on the seeds of which they feed. Tho
government biological survey, in con-
Quoting it's investigation to determine
the economic value of these birds
found in the stomachs of three turtle
doves 2S,100 hawkweed seeds. with
the seeds of several other kinds Of
weeds which have caused the farmer
inconvenience and expense during n
larger portion of the crop growing
season. These birds are much moro
enective as a weed exterminatfn9
force than an army OF men with hoes
and weeders, because the best that
man can do is to keep the weeds in
checks to certain extent, while tho
seed devoured by the bird is de-
stroyed and prevented from taking
root. It is estimated that the natural
Increase Of these birds, If they were
allowed to multiply without Interrupt
ton. would save the American farmer
at least sSoo.OO0.ooO a year.

Science Of Feedino

The feeding OF fowls has become q.
much science as has the feeding OF
dairy or beef cattle. Poultrymen have
their balanced rations for their fowls.
They feed especially for egg produc-
tion' growth and fattening purposes.
The farmer too often feeds for eon-
Venlsnce and relies on corn to produce
all the above requirements. hence the
poor results on many farms. 'rVarietv

Nowhere does Individual effort count
mere than in improving the appearance
of town. If every citizen would con-
slider himself committee Of one to
help beautify his home the question of a
clean, attractive city would soon be set
tied. Too often one man waits for an
other, or individuals wait for some or
ganization or the city authorities to
move with the result that little is done.
1t requires no committee or organiza-
ton for man to sweep the sidewalk in

and garden neat and to remove pots.
pans, broken bottles and other rubbish
from his back yard and alley way, but
1t all helps to make a place beautiful.
One trouble is that here and there is a
man to Indifferent or indolent TO do
these things, and one such man can
mar the beauty of a whole block. Az
other trouble is found in vacant lots. 1t
is the owners place to keep the weeds
down, and it is to his interest, but gen
orally he fails to do it and the lot is
given over to unsightly weeds and rub
bish. That which is needed is local
pride on the part Of the individual and a
general public spirit that will not ;oler-

SOUTHERN DELEGATES IN CHIGAGa.

A letter appearing in THE Press ,
Forum of the Philadelphia Press, touch
ing question, well recognized but so
far politely ignored, from ''W. c. B. -
of Canton, Pa, hits the nail so sqdarsly
on the head that it is reprinted in full.
The question will, more than likely, be
brought up in the convention in Chicago
this week, but in the overshadowing
struggle for the presidential nomina-
tion, it is probable that no action ia the
matter viii be taken; nevertheless, be-
fore the next national convention some
thing must be done to remedy this man.
ifestly unfair condition of things, which
gives the south a predominsnce in the
selection Of republican presidential can
didates not merited by our ability to de-
liver the votes necessary to party sue

follows:
To the Editor of The Press
'Sir;-There were So, 573 republi-
can voters in Virginia in 1908, some
what more than there were plurality
votes for the democratic nominee. But
In the republican convention the dele
gates of these 81, 573 voters can outvote
the delegates sent by 200, 600 republi-
cans in Minnesota.
The republican party of South Caro-
lima is jest-3, 963 in 1908. Just the
same, the South Carolina delegates
could nuIlify the votes of pa, 39S Colo
RADIO republicans as represent I'd by its
delegates If the two states backed com
peting candidates, which would not be 8

republicans will nullify the vote of the
delegates of 247, TAT Wisconsin republi-
cans for their favorite son.
There were not enough republicans
In Louisiana this year to qualify for q
place on the ballot, but the Louisiana
delegates will smother the delegates
from Kansas, where there were 1877, PIG
republicans in 1908. The Mississippi
delegates, representing party of 4. 1868,
could outweigh the hundreds of thou
sands Of republicans of Connecticut,
Delaware and New Hampshire thrown
together. With one fifth as many re-
pubhcans as Nebraska, Arkansas will
balance the votes of Nebraska at the
convention.
The southern delegate scandal is a
disgrace to the party which was 'dedi-
Gated 10 freedom 1t represents the

to be given sanction either by the con-
tinued employment of the delegate pow

not of profession, but of perform
ance.' The National Republican Con-
vention should go on record this year as
pledged to e reform of the system Of
choosing delegates-pledged to make all
conventions in the future representative

The men who have achieved the great
est success in the business world owe
that success in very large measure to
generous and judicious advertising.
Men whose factories cover acres of
ground and whose products go all over
the world began business, almost inva-
riabiy, on q very modest scale and with
slender capital. But they knew the
value of advertising as the great medi-
UNI for getting their goods before the
public, and they showed their faith by
their works. They are rnillionaires be-
cause they used the pages of the news
paper freely and wisely To be sure
not every one who advertises will meet
with such stupendous SUGGESTIVE ma
lority will not. But in not one case in
hundred is success ever attained with
out advertising. Every sbrewd, up-to-
date business man admits that. He
knows that it is not enough that he has
the goods. 1t is necessary that the pub
nc should know. Given, then, the true
business instinct, the right goods upon
the shelves and generous and attractive
advertisement calling attention to those
goods and success is his.

In music it is not the notes only thai
count, but the pauses also. They are
arranged according to the mind and plan
Of the composer, and they are as essen
tial as the notes themselves. So in IN
dividual life the silent pauses have their
place as well as the sound of action,
and the action is all the more effective
by virtue of an occasional pause.

One of the principal criticisms Of the
British old age pension bill was based
on the belief that it would add greatly
to the taxation already so heavy. But
the actual working of the measure
shows that the increase caused by pen
sions is already ia.gely offset by the
lessened cost CT outdoor relief. As an
instance, the old age pension Law has in
the one borough Of Lambeth in London
reduced the poor relief expenses almost
fifty per cent in three yesrs, or from
$50, 500 to SAB, $50 That is gratifying
from both the economical and ethical
standpoint. Money given in charity
has a tendency to lower ones self re-
spect and spirit of independence. there
fore. reduction in the amount thus
given has salutary results. But a pen
sion given as a matter of right to peo-
pie who have toiled in The lowly rank S
Of labor has no deteriorating effect.

HORNE says the drought OF 1909

1911, reduced the already deficient

to such an extent that the manifest
