went to work.

bright hopes. You planned to do a
great deal with your wages, much
more than you have ever been able
to, do. You never dreamed that the
contents Of your pay envelope would
vanish so quickly.

pretty things, dainty dresses and beau

courage to ask for them when every

you expected to supply these wants
easily when you began to earn your

working places are not pleasant; there
is dirt and nerve racking noise. And
when you go home, II you live wi b

Into Each Other.

OSTEND, Aug. 26.-The following
dispatch has been received by messen-
ger from a correspondent of the Daily
Telegraph:
The first actual ARRAY between the
British cavalry and the German ad-
vance guard was a mere accident. an
adventure. 1t happened in this way.
A British detachment was scouting
west of Charleroi and rode round the
corner of a little village street plump
upon a detachment OF the German
fourth Cuirrassiers. A British trooper
afterward said
1t was absolutely a surprise for
both of us. Before you could blink
your eyes we were flying at one an
other as fast as horses could go.
The villagers were yelling and
scramhling into the houses on either
side.
There was no fring-it was abso-
lutely a proper cavalry charge, like
you see in the pictures, horses going
hell for leather and every man sit
ting hunched up under No. l guard
and hoping he would not get his
knees crushed by the fellows on each
side.
Lighter though they were, the
Hussars went at pace that more than
compensated for their inferior weight.
The Cuirassiers in full stride and on
fresh horses might have ridden over
them. but they were slower at the
take off and were mounted on horses
already ridden TO death.
They were taken at a disadvan-
tage and p of them were killed and
seven taken prisoners.
Their mounts were deadbeat and
the men were not much better
And do you know what we found
in their mess tins? Raw horse flesh
and dried oats
Il asked him how he got his wound.
L don't know he replied YEARLY
The first thing l knew my sword was
sticking through a Germans elbow
and his was through my wrist, but it
hasn't cut any tendOns.' he added
