 It is fortunate that President Will
 son has submitted his, national de-
 fense plans to the public in advance
 of the meeting of congress :. There is
 time for considerable discussion of
 them before that body meets. The
 nation, has a chance to make up it's mind on. the subject before the law,
 makers tackle it. 1
 It is fortunate, too( that there has
 been no4 definite. political campaign about it. The more completely our preparations for a better army and
 navy can be kept free from partisan 1 politics, the better for the country. l
 The people are thinking about the | national defense. and thinking more l closely and more seriously than they 1 have for half apcentury. They are expressing themselves freely-and the freer expression there is, the better. I
 Nobody has patent on national [ defense; nobody, whether military ex- pert or statesman or civilian, knows all there is to be known about it, or can reckon accurately all the factors Involved. It Is al big, sgexing subject on which all sincere continent shod.s be welcomed. Such extreme paci- fists as Mr. Bryan deserve a hearing as well as President Wilson. ex-Pres.

that she dra"s it from you without
your consciousness of the fact. | tell
you honestly. Do what you will with
me-"
1t took more courage than any act
of his life for the loyal BOuchard TO
dare such candor to a superior. See
ing the patchy, yellow, bloodless face
drawn in stiff lines and the abysmal
stare of the deep-set eyes in their
| bOny recesses, Bellini was swept with
wave of sympathy.
Thank you, Bouchard. You've been
very fine!" said Bellini as he grasped
Bouchard's hand, which was icy cold.
My duty-my duty, in the hope that
we shall kill two Browns for every
Gray who has fallen that we shall
yet see them starved and besieged
and crying for mercy in their capital"
replied Bouchard. He saluted with a
dismal, urgent formality and stalked
out of the room with the tread of the
ghost of Hamlet's father.
The strange impression that this
farewell left with Bellini still fingered
when, few moments later, Wester-
ling summoned him. Not alone the
dlfhdence of a new member of the
staff going into the presence accounted
Tor the stir in his temples, as he wait
ed till some papers were signed be-
fore he had Westerling's attention.
Then Westerling picked up Bouchard' S
note and shook his head sadly.
Poor Bouchard! You can see for
yourself" and he handed the note to
Bellini. Il should have realized ear
lier that it was a case for the doctor
and not for reprimand. Mad! Poor
Bouchard! He hadn't the ability or
the resiliency of mind for his task, as
hope you have, colonel"
Il hope so, sir" replied Bellini.

terling. You are my choice!"

had just arrived and they saw an old

path.

never saw them before"

Currie. That is that old zap and his
wife you talked to over at Springfield

"Oh, we'll" said Hoyt, maybe they
are just coming in to dinner. They
will take the night train back"
Then he looked again and saw the

wheelbarrow.

And they stayed a month.

THE DOCTORS WIFE
Agrees With Him About Food.

A trained nurse says: an the prac.
tice Of my profession l have found so
many points in favor of Grape-Nuts
food that unhesitatingly recommend
It to all my patients.
1T is delicate and pleasing to the
palate Ian essential in food for the
sicD and can be adapted to all ages,
being softened with milk or cream for
babies or the aged when deficiency of
teeth renders mastication impossible.
For fever patients or those on liquid
diet / find Grape-Nuts and albumen
water very nourishing and refreshing.
This recipe is my own idea and is
made as follows: Soak a teaspoonful
Of Grape-Nuts in a glass of water for
an hour, strain and serve with the
beaten white of an egg and a spoonful
OF fruit juice for flavouring. This af-
lords a great deal of nourishment that
even the weakest stomach can assimi-
late without any distress.
MY husband is a physician and he
uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders It
many times for his patients.
Personally I regard a dish Of Grape
Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the
ideal breakfast for anyone-well or
sick"
In stomach trouble. nervous prostra-
ton, etc., Today trial of Grape-Nuts
will usually work wonders toward
nourishing and rebuilding and in this
