they can fight. and do fight until the last
one dies. There is no white flag business.
Their battles are fought TO the death. NO
surrender is their cry.
They tax no prisoners; they neither give
nor ask quarter. When they fight, the
weaker. be II they or the enemy. is exter-
minated. Oh. they're terrcrs. They may
be little. but they know how to fight.
Where do you think these little fellows
live and die? Why. in your body. in your
blood. 1t is they who make that blood red
Really the blood Itself is a nearly color
less fluid. 1t consists of water in which a
number of substances are dissolved. such
as albuInen. fatty matter. fibrine ana salt.
1t is the fibrine which makes the blood c.ot
and so stops up gashes and the like. The
albumen and the fatty matter build up the
body and 60 10 make repairs. bat the
heaviest part OF the work Is done by the
solid matter which floats in the fluid.

the little red fellows are not in sufficient
force and are being ~vanquishsd the white
ones yield not the least assistance. They
themselves. however, increase vastly in
numbers In such a case. This being So. We
will not bestow another thought upon them.
Our gallant little friends have ever so
much hard work to do in carrying fresh air
all over our bodies. and in generally acting
as hewers of wood and drawers of water.
We will leave all this hard work out Of con-
sheraton. and Will think only of their
fighting deeds.
