MILITARY ROMANCE
FRENCH DEsERTER REJolNS
ARMY UNDER ALIAS, WINS
PRAISE AND HONOR.

Paris, Nov. "A strange militia
ry romance was related at a court
martial at Chalons. where Victor
Marcwalker. a warrant officer. was
tried for desertion. Under false
name the man had rejoined the
army and atoned for his fault by
winning medals and promotion.
Marcwalker Joined the ninety
fourth infantry in 1890, at the age
of 81. Not long afterward he de-
serted to avoid arrest for stealing
provisions from the regimental storL
where he was clerk in charge. Three
years after court-martial In mis-
absence sentenced him to 20 years
penal servitude.
In 1895 she enlisted in the foreign
legion under the name OF Walck, and
was sent TO Algeria. He proved an
excellent soldier, and was quickly
promoted to sergeant, and then TO
sergeant major. He fought in all the
Il i'iNu Nolohldl NdIS III MdudSdSCdT
and Tonking, and earned three
medals.
Walck was recently promoted to
warrant rank as a reward for dis
tinguished service. and was recon-
mended for the military media.
the most coveted decoration a
French soldier can receive.
Returning to France on furlough,
Walck, or Marcwalker, in mo-
ment Of acute conscience, surrei,.
dered 10 the gendarmes at Chalons
as a deserter, announcing his real
name.
The court martial acquitted Marc
walker, considering that he had full
ly atoned for his early crimes by
his subsequent long service. gallant
ry and devotion to duty.

Cures Dyspepsia;
Trial Is Free

II is a popular mistake that only
wealthy people who eat rich and
highly-spiced foods suffer from dys-
pepsia, or, as it is also known, indi-
gestion. The laborer in the street,
the worker in the field also finds him
self victim of this disorder. Among
the very greatest sufferers from it are
women.
Dyspepsia is indicated by n constant
feeiing OF laziness, by loss OF appetite and
troubled sleep. by sour stomach and dis
tress after eating. by bad complexion and
lusterless eyes
There is no surer and speedier cure for
this trouble than DIR. Caldwelrs Syrup
Pepsin. which dyspeptics have been using
successfully for twenty years. This great
herb laxative compound cured Capt. Clark,
OF Buffalo, Ia. of dyspepsia and sour
stomach that he had had for forty years,
Or. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. II cured
Joel Adams, OF Montgomery, Ala, after

These are only a few OF the many. But
II Is not expensive 10 be cured with this

Cousin Sarah listened with interest
to the boys story about Jimmy Jaw

Then she rose and said: "You shall

would like. Only l think you will
have to let me carry it for you. for 1t
is almost as big as you are"
So Cousin Sarah took the turkey on
its great blue platter, and the boy
took the cranberry sauce in one hand
and a dish of apples in the other. and
of they went.
The people whom they met looked
very much surprised to see young
lady carrying huge turkey through
the street, but Cousin Sarah didn't

thought how pretty the boy looked.

years ago l was obliged to do much
heavy work and soon after that
became victim of kidney trouble.
Although this complaint was not con-
slant, it came on in attacks, some Of
which were 30 severe that 1t was al
most impossible for me to attend to
the household duties. The pains
through my back and loins were most
intense and I had little strength or
ambition. knew this trouble arose
from disordered kidneys, but was at
loss to know what to do until
Doan's Kidney Pills were recommend
ed to me by friend. I procured a
supply at The Red Cross Drug Store
and after l had taken them short
time they proved to be just what ]
needed, giving me quick relief and
positive relief. Whenever I feel the
slightest return of the trouble al
ways appeal to their use and as
promptly rid of the annoyance.
Doan's Kidney Pills proved of more
benefit to me than any other kidney
remedy ever used"
