Geep-toned laughter accompanied by

ring of spurred heels on stone walks,

But Trooper Smith tries not to hear
such sounds. 1t is world not open
to him. The Chinese wall of rank is
an impossible barrier between him
and the West Point aristocracy." He
is treated by his officers as though
contact were contamination, and his
American soul fills with bitterness at
the tyranny of army discipline. He
therefore bets the drinks with his
"bunkies" on the outcome of the Sun
day baseball match between rival
troop teams, or gossips about recent
row in Mikes place"-one of the typi-
cal, parasitic dens in the nearby town
that reaps a monthly harvest of sol.
diers' squanderings of their $13 pay.

in the barracks poolroom; he tells the
corporal he wishes to al he were

Trooper Smith springs to his feet
and stands rigid at attention with the
other enlisted men on the guard-house
porch. An officer is passing. Sentry

A GREAT many remedies to Temporal,
N rily relieve cal drrh have been devised
from time to time, such as sprays, snuils,
creams aud other local applications but, as
q rule. the medical profession has little or
no enthusiasm in the treatment OF catarrh-
1t is generally pronounced by them to
be incurabie.
1t therefore created great sensation In
medical circles when Dr. Hartman an
nounced that he had devised a compound
which would cure catarrh permanently;
The remedy was named Peruna, and 10
a short time became known to thousands
of catarrh sufferers north, south, east and
west.
Letters testifying to the fact that Pc
