In it's report the commission scored
the crews of the wrecked trains for.
the criminal Carelessness which sent
a score of souls crashing into eterni-
ty.
Officers and directors Of the road
were scathingly grilled for promul-
eating system that made them prac-
tically dead letters in the manage
ment of the road and not required to
see personally that Operating condl-
tions on the road were what they
directed them to be.
The report of the commission de-
manded an entire revolution In the

Mutilatine the Teeth.

1t is curious to what an extent
the mutilation of teeth goes on
among savage nations, and among
certain civilized people, such as
the Japanese. With them a girl is
never married without first staining
he teeth black with a repulsive
kind of varnish, and the custom is
especially adhered to among the
members of the richer classes. On
the west coast of Africa largepro-
portion of the teeth are deliberately
broken when children reach a Ger
tain age. Both in the New World
and in the Old the custom exists of
extracting the two front teeth OF
domestic servants. In Peru the
custom has existed from time inn
memorial, and used to be sign OF
slavery in the days of the Incas. -

fruit is reputed to be composed of
the substances which are to be

twenty per cent of fat and many
other ingredients Of great food val
ue, and one good sized meat" pear
is quite sufficient to make a. meal
for the average man.
The reason why the fruit is so
little known at present is because
it is grown nowhere on a large

MEMORIAL DAY
Should Be Observed Friday, May
80, 1913 Decorate Graves
of Soldiers and Friends
Who Have Departed.

The war Of the sixties is rapidly
more distant. The great majority
of those who took part in it as
soldiers have answered the last
bugle call and martial music no
longer stiIS their blood as in days
of yore. Those who are yet with
us have nearly all reached ali age
where they cannot work as in the
early days of their life Hence it
falls on those coming later to see to
it that the graves of those who wore
the blue and those wore the gray
are decorated on Memorial Day.
The day should be generally OBJ
served. Drop a flower on the grave
of the soldiers of days agone, and
on the graves of friends and rela-
tives who have departed to that
land from whose bourne no traveller
mas ever T6tuTueu.
There are sleeping in the Gem
etries here many soldiers. Next
week the Democrat will publish the
names of Mexican, Federal and
Confederate dead Look it over
carefully and if you know of any
Others please notify this office. We
desire to keep the record complete
Some arrangement should be
made to perpetually mark the
graves of all dead soldiers and Me-
mortal day should to some extent
be observed.
