HECRAND REVIEW
and The LAST
PARADE
Few of the Veterans VINO
Marched Down Pennsylvania
Avenue in 1865 Were Present
at the Last Parade Over the
Same Route, in 1915.

- raj. GEN. GEORGE COR
NH DON MEADE. attended by a
V brilliant staff, rode at the
head Of the column that
trooped through Pennsylvania avenue
and past the presidents stand. For
two days, May % and "a, 1865, the
stream of war-weary veterans march
ed. 1t was the Grand Review.
Two hundred thousand men and
boys In faded blue followed their rag
ged war flags in the long line that
marched past the stand near the ex-
ecutive mansion, from which President
Johnson, his cabinet, General Grant
and American and foreign notables
viewed the procession. The Army of
the Tennessee and the Army of Geor-
gia were assembled for the last time
before they were mustered out and the
men sent back to their homes. The
war was over.
The fiftieth anniversary of the re-
view was celebrated in 1915 in Wash
ington. President Wilson wept as
he watched the 10000 survivors Of the
Grand Review falter by.
Wilson saw the aged and bent. John
son saw the erect and strong. despite
four years struggle that tired and in
vigorated them simultaneously.
The Worlds Finest Army.
The men who marched In 50
composed what historians have called
the most efficient body of troops the
world had known at that time. They
were the victorious veterans of four
years of desperate fighting; Injured to
hardship, experienced In horror and
welded with discipline.
The men who marched four years
ago could scarcely stand the parade.
Their lines were patroled by ambu-
lances to care for those who fell by

lake his Test For
Acid Stomach

There are millions of people who
suffer almost daily from the horrors
of an acid-stomach-indig sour,
gassy, stomach; distressing heartburn !;
sickening food-repeating; painful
bIoat and that miserable, pulled up,
lumpy feeling after eating. Many of
these people have tried treatment after
treatment; medicine after medicine !;
others have gone to doctors and stom-
Rch specialists and some to hospitals,
but in spite of all Of their efforts they
have obtained no lasting relief or a
permanent cure.
These symptoms simply mean acid
stomach. II allowed to run on, they
hrs very likely to cause lot of seri-
Gus trouble. Dyspepsia, rheumatism,
gout, lumbago, sciatica, splitting head
ache, dizzy spells, nervousness. sleep
lessness, mental depression. melan-
cholia, a feeling of listlessness and
all-goneness-these are just few Of
the disorders which can be traced to
acid-stomach. - AS a matter Of fact,
acId-stomach is often the direct cause
of those almost incurable conditions
known as catarrh Of the stomach, in
testInal ulcer. and cancer of the stom-
ach. The lives of those who suffer
from these serious troubles are moth
ing short of daily agony. Surely,
then, you must see how important 1t
is to go at once to the seat Of the
trouble acid-stomach. You know

LOOKED LIKE LABOR WASTED
Boards Visit Over, Small Boy Couldn't
See Further Necessity for So
Much Soap antd Water.

He was new little boy at the or
phanage and was much impressed by
all the scrubbing and cleaning he saw
done there, more SO because he had
come from home in which disorder
and dirt had held sway. He could
not understand it; more than that.
1t irritated him, and when he got the
job of scrubbing the dining-room steps
he was almost ready to leave.
But just then came a new excite
ment to the home. The board was
coming to make Its annual tour of In
spection. and the cleaning was dou-
bled. "Get ready for the board" was
the home watchword, it seemed, and
he, being very human. decided to stay
until that big event was over.
The day of visiting came and passed.
The next morning the new youngster
sought the matron. "Now that them

use of scrubbing them steps so often

MERELY PIECE OF FOOLING
Course Taken by Germany Resembles
Closely Neat Trick That Is
Credited to Sheridan.

"The Germans, by fooling us with
German bolshevism, hoped to escape

congressman.

Sheridan, the spendthrift playwright.

"Hanson was very pressing on the
subject of his account. He harangued
and he harangued. Sheridan, broke,
as usual, paced the floor In despair.
"But suddenly an idea struck the
spendthrift and he said:
"'You know Gunter?'
"'One of the safest men in Lon

"'Then you will be satisfied If j
give you his bill for the amount?
"Certainly.'
"Sheridan thereupon handed the
ironmonger Gunter's neatly folded ac-
count, snatched up his hat and rushed
forth"

Paid For In Blood.
The war had wrought sorrow In
every home. The victorious armies
had passed through 1000 engagements.
The Grand Review had been paid for.

to take up their lives where they left

the spectacular finale.
Timid souls feared the consequence
of releasing u million trained soldiers
In time of peace and advocated some
form of restraint for the veterans. but
their fears were without foundation.
The men who marched those days in
Washington were eager to turn to lives
of service. The West and the middle
West lay waiting development. In
stead of an orgy an era of labor fol-
lowed. The men who made the great
middle-western states were men from

Even If you are not suffering any
immediate stomach pains, but are not
feeling just as fit and fine as you
should. you should by all means make
this test: Go to your drug store at
once and get a big box of EATONIC.
It is in the form of pleasant-tasting
tablets-you eat them like a bit of
candy. EATONIC is prepared for just
one purpose-correcting acid-stomach
by driving out the excess acid.
EATONIC literally absorbs the excess
acid. 1t brings instant relief from
the pains of Indigestion, heartburn,
belching. sour, gassy stomach, bloat.
etc. 1t makes the stomach pure, sweet,
cool and comfortable. puts it in a nor

food is properly digested. You need
every bit of strength you can possibly
get out of the food you eat--and
EATONIC helps you get 1t.

and private buildings were decorated
with flags and the cOlOrs. Triumphal
arches and reviewing stands were
erected aiong the line. The side
walks were jammed with cheering
thousands.
washington's school children were
assembled at the north end of the cap
itol, the girls in white on the stairs
and the boys In white trousers and
blue Jackets on the terrace. The out
burst of patriotic songs In childish
voices was continuous. Across the
front of the capitol on huge banner
was the legend:
"The Only National Debt We Can
Never Pay Is the Debt We Owe the
Victorious Union Soldiers"
Upon the drapings of the flags on
the presidents stand were Inscribed

Flfty-four years ngo It took the
army two days for review. In 1918 1t
took less than four hours. Several
sections give their battle cries MS they
passed the president; cries that were
hollow and lacking in volume. Others
sang the war songs of 30 years ago
in quavering voices. one section
sang marching Through Georgia"
with brave show of spirit. They
were Shermnn's men.
A fife and drum corps passed
playing "Rally Round the Flag, Boys"
and many of those In the presidents

erans cheered again. As each contin-
gent came along there would be
burst of applause.

men appeared exhausted when they
passed. The president stood through

hat whenever the American flag
passed.

Wheat is generally considered the
safest grain to be fed alone. 1t is
not fattening when fed alone. This
grain should be supplemented by some
meatfeed or skinned milk to increase
the proportion of protein. Wheat
contains more protein than corn,
about the same amount of carbohy-
drates, but less fat and on the whole
is considered not so valuable fer fat
tening, but better for growth. Wheat
screenings, if they are of a good
grade, can frequently be purchased
and fed to advantage. OF course
there is always the danger of intro
ducing weed seed on the farm.
Burnt wheat" can seldom be fed
advantagecusly, the difference in
price between this and good wheat
being usually too slight to warrant
one in feeding it.
Oats are often fed for variety, but
are not well liked unless hulled, the
hulls being tough and rather indi-
gestible. Hulled oats, on the other
hand. are relished by poultry and are
excellent for producing eggs. When
they can be obtained at reasonable
price in comparison with other grains
they may be fed quite largely.
Barley does not seem to be greatly
relished by hens, but may be used to
give variety to the grain ration. It
has = little more protein than corn
and q little less than oats.
Buckwheat Is quite well liked by
fowls, but IL ID not very widely fed. It

HEN LIKELY TO LEAD WEAKER CHICKS AWAY
May Made Of Waste Lumber Goods
Boxes-Small Pen Enables Hen to Have Exercise
How

Release from the nest means free
dom and liberty to the mother hen,
and she is likely to take her young
brood far afield on grasshopper or
insect hunt. Otter the grass is wet
and the showerbath which the young
sters receive in journeying through
the grass is likely to chill them so
that they get sick and die, especially
in the case of the weaker chicks.
Hence, it is necessary to coop the hen
in order to prevent ner from taking
such hikes with her ficcks.
Any style of coop which provides
plenty of space, dry, ventilated quar-
tiers and which affords protection
against rats and other vermin in adj
dition to facilities for closing the
house at night, is satisfactory. The
old-fashioned A-shaped coop with a
wooden floor and Slated sides, is a
pioneering model which is common
place among most farm poultry equip
ment. The box type of coop, shown
in the illustration has also stood the
test of time, and is to be found on
farms the country over. In same
instances a small sheltered yard is
used as a supplement to the coop
proper so that the hen may turn
about and get little exercise. The
fence around this should be high
enough so that the chicks can run in
and out but low enough so as to cut
off exit for the hen. BY using a
coop of this description the chicks
can find shelter and warmth under
the hen at any time. while the weak

The detention coop for the hen may
be made of waste -1mber of dry
goods boxes 1t should provide plenty
of ventilation and should be built
over a removable floor which should
fit tightly under the sides of the coop
so as to keep it tight and dry. This
floor facilitates the efficient and easy
cleaning of the coop. The practical
coop which is presented in the accom-
panying picture has ad DOR covered
with 1-2 inch wire netting which

Feed Chicks Frequently.

When the chicks are few days old
it is well to begin to feed little grain
Millet seed, finely cracked corn and
wheat, "pinhead" oatmeal and broken
rice may be scattered in the litter or
short grass about the coop or brocder.
A very good mivxture of cracked
grain for chicks is parts wheat, 2
parts "pinhead" oatmeal, / part corn.
/ part rice and / part millet seed.
Another good mixture is 10 lbs. crack
ed wheat, lbs. cracked corn, lbs.
millet seed, lbs. cracked hulled oats
or pinhead oatmeal and l ID. fine
beef scraps. There are also many
prepared chick feeds on the market
which are very good.
Young chicks should be fed a little
at time and often. They should
be fed early in them orning and just
before going to bed at night and not
less than three times in the interview
ing period. For the first two weeks
they may be fed three meals of soft
feed and two Of hard and after that
age two of soft and three CT hard,
feeding less soft feed as they grow
older. No more moistened soft feed
should be given at one time than they
will eat up clean. The finely cracked
grains may be safely used from the
start but the chicks do not as rule
grow as rapidly as when a part Of
the feed is ground. When chicks are
from four to six weeks old, the fire.
quency of feeding may be decreased
to four times a day.
