The death Of Col. John S. Mosby, which

The death Of Col. John S. Mosby, which
occurred in Washington on Tuesday last, re-
moves one Of the most CONSPICUOUS Of the Civil
War heroes. His exploits and gallantry have
been the theme Of many war tale, and the
high esteem in which he was held by partisans
Of the South will long remain as monument
to his GOODNESS, fearlessness and ability as a
cavalry commander Only few Of his COM
mand now survive, but together with comrades
who have answered the final roll they have
made an impression upon the world that will
long remain His ability as commander was
marked to an extraordinary degree.
Col Mosby ranks with such chiefs as Marion
and Sumter, and his military genius was recog-
nized by the commanding generals Of both the
Confederate and Federal forces.

The sentiments that hallow with sanctity the
observance Of Memorial Day are all Of peace.
In its observance is lesson that it would pro-
fit greatly the nations now engaged in devastat-
ing the fairest portions Of the old world to take
to heart. Fifty years ago our country was in
the throes Of fierce and bloody Civil War,
but today we stand united at the graves Of our
dead and while paying homage to their valor
and steadfastness to the principles for which
they gave their lives receive the consolation
and solshce that we are now at peace and are
enjoying the benefits Of united country, whose
flag, once the emblem Of hatred and contempt,
today stands as the exempIar Of love and union.
IF we can oblterate all bitterness and hatred in
that space Of time, should not the warning ma
lions Of Europe look forward to not far dis
tant future when they, too, may again enjoy the
peace and happiness that this world can afford
to those who love their neighbors.

Thousands Poisoned
(By Or. l. c. BABCOCK.)
LIFE SHORTENED BY URIC ACID.


There is process going on within
the body which often poisons us. 1t is
something like the fable of the snake
being able TO kill itself with its own
poisons. This is the formation of uric
acid in excess within the body. II is q
waste product which takes place in the
liver. This poisonou. uric acid is then
passed on to the kidneys, which act as
a filter TO pass off and excrete this
poison. II the kidneys are clogged up
inactive, the poison degencrates these
organs and causes kidney disease II
II is deposited IN the tissues, around
the Joints OF the body, it causes rheu-
matiSm or gout.
Consequently We mus, do everything
10 throw off this uric acid poison, and
simple methods are best Flush the
kidneys by drinking plenty of water
between meals; a pint OF hot water
morning and night is splendid Take
Anuric three times a day for awhile,
and get the kidneys to working by
flushing out this poison. That painful
alilietion, known as gout, as well as
muscular rheumatism. is caused BY the
uric acid crystals being deposited in
the big toes or tissues, The man who
uses his brain, perhaps overtaxing hi,
nervous energy will suffer fits OF
blues" depression, headache, sleepless-
ness loss of memory, perhaps his face
is broken out with q slight rash--all
due to the poison Of uric acid. The
man who does physical work using his
muscles, occasionally complains Of
sluggi,hness, museuly tired feeling,
muscular stiffness or aches. neuralgia
twinges--symptoms all due to this uric
acid accumulation IN every case ] ad-
wise hot water and Anurio taken three

Don't Overload Hogs.
Forewarned is forearmed.

? '-r.s.a I
The weather is rapidly warming up
and hog shippers should keep this fact
in mind and load the cars accordingly.
a year ago this time hogs were
averaging around 10 head or a little
better to the car and at present they
are averaging 80 to the car. !.
There have been no losses from
overlooking because of the continued
cold weather, but, II hot weather APP
pears unexpectedly unnecessary losses
are certain to come from loading too
many hogs to the car.
Hogs are selling about 200 higher
than a year ago. and the loss Of even
one animal from careless loading
means a much greater loss than at
THAT time. "E&-' r SOS, - ssl s
Care in loading hogs shows Ell
cheney, and the man who makes a
success of shipping live stock never
overloads He adheres to the policy
of safety first"
1t is better to have too few hogs In
the car than too many. Past records
during hot weather bear this out.
It is true that the weight Of hogs
being marketed is lighter than year
ago, but not enough to warrant putting
eight to ten head more in q car
Begin Immediately to cut down the
number TO the car and don't wait Until
you suffer loss from overlooking. VI
It may be cool when you load si at
Lyour home town. but II the weather
should suddenly warm up In transit
YOU may find that you have few dead
hogs in the car upon arrival at the
market.-chicago Live Stock World

Various Causes For Strikes and

Washington, May 1.-Organizcd la
Dor received more in the year ending
with May in increased wages. short
ening of hours and legislation than
ever before in Its history. according to
officials of the American Federation OF
Labor. Wage advances were general
the country over in virtually every
line Of industry and laws beneftting
labor were put on the statute books
Of every state in the union except Ave.
Wage increases were greatest in the
metal trades, many Of which were
stimulated by war orders. Cotton
manufacturing was the only main in
dustry which did not grant substan-
tial increases. The metal trades. too,
claimed the greatest number Of strikes
during the year. tho many plants in
creased the pay OF their men and cut
working hours voluntarily.
One benefit brought by the indus
trial revival which labor officials con-
slider as important as increases In
wages was the effect on unempioy-
ment. which has disappeared within
the past year. Statistics just complet-
ed by the department of labor show
that men OF all trades have been called
into work Iron and steel mills have
on their payrolls now IS per cent more
men than were employed a year ago
and the car building and repairing in
dustry has increased it's forces by
about the same percentage. Manufac-
turers of boots and shoes are employ
ing 20 per cent more men than this
time last year.
From 70 IS Per Cent.
Wage increases during the year have
ranged from to Is per cent. No sta
tistics have been compiled by either
the department of labor or the Ameri-
coming In to both tell Of what Is being
accomplished in manufacturing plants
in all parts OF the country.
The department OF labor puts the
country's 1915 strikes at 1900. about
500 more than the year before About
two-thirds Of them were for wage in
creases or decreased working hours
and most OF them were. successful
Munitions strikes starting In the sum
mer OF 1915 attracted much attention.
Most Of them were for shorter hours
without pay increases. Shorter hours
generals were obtained by the NUM-
tons workers. bnt where wage In
creases were asked the workers seldom
got as much as they asked for.
Strikes in the clothing industry In
eastern cities involved number Ok
strikes. but their duration was com.
paratively short. A middle western
clothing strike. in Chicago, however.
lasted for three months and involved
from 5000 to 5000 workers. Other
strikes Of Importance during the year
included the building trades strike IL
Chicago, which halted building in that
city for a time: the oil and chemical
strikes at Elizabeth. N. J.. and neigh-
boring cities and the Chicago street
car strike. The eastern Ohio coal
strike was settled just a year ago.
Strike cauSss Numerous. Al
The causes Of strikes and tockouts
were numerous. In a total Of 200
