Wednesday March 4, 1914 THE ASHEVILLE GAZETTE-NEWS PAGE THRU INTERESTING WR DAYS RELIC HERE S. 0. Bradley Has an Issue of Vicksburg Paper Printed During Seige. WALL PAPER UTILIZED TO ISSUE JOURNAL Two Days Later City Was Cnptured- Contcnts Portrays IJfo in the Besieged Town. S. O. Bradley, a native of Mississippi, put who has made his home in Ash eville for a number of years and is prominent in the business circles of the city, is the possessor of what is probably one of the most unique rel ics of the war of the states in ex istence here. It is an issue of The Daily Citizen of Vicksburg, Miss., of the date July 2, 1863. The age of the issue is by no means remarkable, but the fact that the publication is printed on the reverse side ot wall paper makes it a relic of interest. The sheet is about 12 by 16 inches and is printed on only one side, the the other being handsomely decorated with pink roses in a delicate design for the walls of an ante-bellum man sion. It was doubtless valuable wall paper, but Vicksburg was then under siege and there was no other availa ble. This was the last issue, however for which wall paper had to be used, ... i .i . . ...... i ., I U . t...

As stated above, this issue of the was dated July 2, and among 111. fill nrst paragrapns noteu was me i wing: "I'urter is enjoying a season of rest, j hd his men are doubtless obliged to pirn lor his kind consideration for Ihelr welfare. On Tuesday he llred a ' few shells from his Parrots, and kept hi." men tolerably busy sharpshooting across the river, with no other re sult than might be expected.

It is sweet savory and tender, and as. long as we have a mule left we are satis lied our soldiers will be content to subslRt on it." The tale of the fricasseed kitten is told in another paragraph under the caption, "Victimized": "Wo learned of an Instance where in 'a knight of the quill' and a 'dis ciple of the black art', with malice in their hearts and vengeance in their eyes, ruthlessly put a period In the existence of a venerable feline that has for a time, not within the recol lection of the 'oldest Inhabitant', faithfully discharged the duties to be expected of him to the terror of sundry vermin in his neighborhood.

Along with the levity in the "sheet" there is considerable war news, and the jabs at the "Yankees" outside the city are exceedingly pointed in some of them. One follows: "The federal Gen. McClernand, un til recently outside the rear ot our city, has been superceded. He and Grant could not run in the same har ness. He was for splurging and Grant for gassing. Both got logger heads. So poor Mac has to leave, and ' Grant has it all his own way." A short reference to the federal soldiers outside the city and their condition, the Citizen says: i ne lanks outside the city are considerably on the sick list. Fever dysentery and disgust are their com panions and Grant their master. The bays are deserting ' daily and are crossing the river in the region of Warrenton, cussing Grant and aboli tionists generally. The boys are down upon the earth delving, the bad water and hot weather.'!' There Is no spirit of discourage ment shown In any part of the pub lication, even though the supplies were fearfully low. The whole is a relic of interesting history. EIS FOR ASHEVILLE SCHOOL Candidates For Baseball Team Will Begin Practice On Next Tuesday.

Rtr-.ed seat) I'M KM QUIT MEAT WHEN KIDNEYS BOTHER Take a Glass of Salts If Your Back Hurts or Bladder Troubles You. No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by j flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well known medical authority. Meat forms uric acid which excites the kidneys, they become over worked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou ble, nervousness, dizziness, sleepless ness and urinary disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache In the kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat and get about Tour ounces of Jad Salts from any pharm acy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast and In a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with Iithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes Irritation, thus ending bladder weak ness. Jad Salts Is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful efferves cent llthia-water drink which every one should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications. ation suit has been found not guilty.

Expert Advice on How to Go Through a Picture Gallery. I should recomuiend you to go through a picture gallery as one seek ing the face of a friend in a crowd and to let yourselves be led on by your sympathies. If you admire the work of a uiau. Hud out all you can about him; see his work as much as you can, especially his beginnings. In our times a distinction is made be tween painting which is decorative and painting w hich is pictorial, which is. I think, an unfortunate distinction, und one which should not exist, for all pictures should decorate the walls or I places on which they are placed. That this distinction should exist is perhaps our own fault in forgetting as we do sometimes that a picture should be agreeable to the eye in its color and masses the good old painters never forgot, that. It seems to me thnt taste in a pic ture is something like natural good manners iu man. uot depending on the elements the clothes of the picture, but on the temperament it displays and the measure of its harmony with our acknowledged standards, for a man's picture reveals his outlook on the world and is in that sense a part of him. If we choose a person for a friend, we like him, let us say, to be simple and natural, reliable and with out swagger. Whether he is rhji or poor, grave or guy. does not ri-attei' so long as we can depend on him. And it seems to me that a picture to be in good taste must have analogous qualities that it should, like our ideal friend, tie in accord with the best .standards. It should be in harmony with the best we know. From "Royal Academy Lectures on Painting," by f leorce Clausen. It. A.. R. W. S.
