ish grotesqueness of war, who made
no warning outcry-only a stricken
humble penetrated through the band
ages that wrapped his jaws and the
lower part of his face. A sanitaire
found him and pointed the way to the
tent. Can you get there without
help?' he demanded. From behind
the stained %bandages came a wordless
humble and the man nodded.
1t was ONE two or three hours
later that the sanitaire who had &C.
costed the face-bandaged man came
across him again, not far from the
tent. WHY" he said, what are you
doing here? Didn't you understand
where you had to go? Come along;
I'll take you there"
He put his hand on the mans arm
to draw him along; at that touch and
the friendly compulsion of it the
wounded man jerked back, dragging
his arm free. His wound, it seemed,
he could bear, but not hands laid upon
him. He hesitated, as if he would
back into the wood. Next moment he
stood in the light of the sanitaire's
electric torch, his eyes, above his
bandeges and below his cap, battling
and blind by its glare.
"Ah!" The torch went out and the
sanitaire's hands descended upon,
him, firmly now, in a grapple. Help,
here!" shouted the sanitaire, hanging
to him while he fought to be free.
Help, here, brothers! Here's a Ger
man spy"
l saw him first when the bandages
had been taken from him-those band
ages that had spared him the need of
speaking Russian-lying bare his
clean-shaven cheeks, which showed no
wound, and the pert trimmed mustache
on his upper lip. An officer, this one
= a Prussian, with all the stern price
| of his race and class. He had already
been Judged and condemned; life for
him was at it's end; he stood in the
light Of the lantern awaiting the firing
party that was even now coming up,
with his hands clasped behind his
back, in an attitude of serene and
nonchalant ease.
1t cost him apparently no effort to
hold the smooth and i~mperturbable
calm Of his features, to be and seem
an officer and an aristocrat in the
very Valley Of the Shadow Of Death.
A Russian officer stepped forward
and offered his cigarette case. The
prisoner, with a nod of acknowledg
ment, took and lighted a cigarette. He
drew at it, lifted it from his lips and
blew a thin cloud of smoke, like a mar
who relishes 1t intellectually.
Then the firing party, ten men ane
an officer, tramped up, halted with
jar and a clatter. The prisoner turned
toward 1t, exchanging a salute with
the officer in charge.
The men, upon a curt order, closed
about him. Another order, and they
marched of, taking him with them
~courteously, with due military observ
ance Of his rank, to put him against
tree and carefully kill him. The Ian
tern and a little crowd Of onlooker,
streamed after them; that miracle
the only one of which man is capabI,
of turning a human being into car
rion, need never lack an audience:
and presently, adding itself to the up
roar of the nearby battle, where mel

THE STING IN A JEST.
From the Irish World.

Do you foster the habit Of teas
ing in your family? If you do, be-
gin today to stamp it out. 1t is a
fruitful SOURCE Of unhappiness in
given and taken in all kindness,
is well in it's place, but there are
times when even the humorist
must realize that a word of en-
enlargement and sympathetic in
terest is much more needed.
The practice of picking at a
member. of the family, known to
be irritable, not infrequently results
in lifelong dislike between brother
n sister; yes, even between par
ent and child. The backward boy
quick witted. Even little children
"guy" one another, and, having
less control OF their feelings than
older folk, they often pass from
funny moods to fits of rage.
The fault of the home and school
in office and shop and factory.
Teasing. translated into slang,
means "j%ollying," and now and
again a dreadful tragedy is traced
back to i'll natured jests and gibes
that the victim lla not the mental
or physical endurance to stand. A
word Of sensible advice. of kindly
sympathy and encouragement
might have helped him to conquer
the dangerous mood.
It may be said that no well
balanced person will be affected by
jest or joke, no matter how brutal
!. or i'll timed it may be, yet how
many intellectually brilliant men
and women have shown their sus-
c%eptibility to the shafts of ridicule?
No one knows just how heavy is
the burden that another may be
bearing--ill health, silently en-
dured. mental depression, home
troubles, uncongenial employment,
heart breaking disbursements
and disappointments-the list is
endless. Do not add to 1t. the
heartless Jest o the teasing act
that may draw unwelcome atten-
ton. Even very good people err
this way occasionally, through
lack of tact and perception it may
be. Perhaps you remember the
prayer of the child who asked God
, to make all the bad people good.

BUY AN AUTO. KEEP
CHILDREN ON FARM

TOLEDO. o., Feb. 4.-The old. old
question How to keep the children
en- the farm" has been answered. ac-
oording to John W. willys here to-
day. Willys is a big auto manufacture
er. The answer Is the medium priced
automobile. says willys.
"The wild scramble on the part OF
farm bred boys and girls to get work
in the cities is fast becoming a thing
of the past. The motor car has
brought tho cities to them. The auto
is keeping more youngsters on the
farm today than promises Of city
wealth ever could do" Wlllys de.
clares.
Willys puts the high price Of farm
products in the past directly at the
door of the ION to the city move
ment" He declared:
The agriculturist found he must
boost the price Of his product in or
der to pay for the planting, tending
and marketing Of that product. But
the coming of the medium priced au-
tomobile has changed conditions. His
sons and daughters have the oppor-
tunity for recreation they have al
ways sought They are practically as
Independent as the oungsters whose
parents live in the suburbs. In the
evening their car will takethen as
far and fast as they want to travel.
They can run to the city and attend
a theater. a concert or any other am.
usement."
And in the present day OF scientific
farming implements, they are not too
tired to do this, either Willys be-
lieves.
