cism Of an immortal event In popular
imagination in hearing Of the old man
as he lived over that intoxicated rush
of horses and men into a battery OF
the Grays.
Well. didn't you find what l said
was true about the lowlanders?" asked
grandfather after he had finished the
charge. referring to the people of the
southern frontier Of the Browns, where
the SD had Just been garrisoned.
mo, kind of liked them. l made q
lot OF friends" admitted Tom. They're
very progressive"
''Eh. eh! You're toking!" To like
the people OF the southern frontier was
only less conceivable than liking the
people Of the Grays. That's because
you didn't see deep under them.
They're all on the outside-a fiighty
lot! Why. If they'd done their part
In that last war we'd have licked the
Grays until they cried for mercy! II

at Volmer-"
so you've always said." interrupted
Tom.
And the way they cook tripe! l
couldn't stomach 1t. could you? And
II there's anything l am partial to it's
a good dish Of tripe! And their light
beer-like drinking froth! And their
bread-why. 1t amt bread. It's chips!
'Taint flt for civilized folks!"
But l sort of got used to their
ways" said Tom.
'Eh, eh?' Grandfather looked at
grandson quizzically, seeking the cause
Of such heterodoxy in a northern man.

Say, you amt been falling in love?"
he hazarded. "You-you amt going to
bring one OF them southern girls
home?"
Mo-" said Tom, laughing.
We'll, I'm glad you amt, for they're
naturally light-minded. l remember
'em we'll" He wandered on with his
questions and comments. 'Is 1t fact.
Tom. or was you just joking when you
wrote home that the soldiers took so
many baths?"
Yes, they do"
We'll, that beats me! It's a wonder
you didn't all die OF pneumonia" He
paused to absorb the phenomenon
Then his halfchildish mind, prompted
by random recollection fitted to an
other subject which set him to gig
Cling. And the little crawlers-did
they bother you much, the little crawl
ers?"
THE little crawlers?" repeated Tom
mystified
Yes. Everybody used to get 'em
just from living close together. Had
to comb EN- out and pick 'em out of
your clothes. The chase we used to
call it."
mo, grandfather, crawlers have
gone out Of fashion. And no more cpl
denies of typhoid and dysentery
either" said Tom.
Times have certainly changed"
grumbled Grandfather Fragini.

CHAPTER ~.
Times Have Changed.

The SD of the Browns had started
for La Tir on the same day that the
128th Of the Grays had started for
South La Tir. While the 12Sth was
going to new scenes. the SD was re-
turning to familiar ground 1t had de-
trained IN the capital of the province
from which its ranks had been recruit
ed. After a steep incline, there was a
welcome bugle note and with shouts
OF delight the centipedes legs broke
apart! Bankers, laborers', doctors
valets', butchers, manufacturers and
judges sons threw themselves down
on the greensward of the embankment
to rest With their talk OF home, of
relatives whom they had met at the
station, and Of the changes In the town
was mingled talk OF the crisis.
Meanwhile. an aged man was ap-
preaching. At times he would break
into kind of trot that ended, after a
few steps, in shortness of breath. He
was quite withered, his bright eyes
twinkling out of an area OF moth
patches, and he wore frayed uniform

PIONEER HORSE OF
 ALASKA COMES OUT

SEATTLE, Oct. 21.-Frank Man ley, one of the big mining operators in the Iditarod, took a horse into the country twelve years ago. The horse was. a faithful animal and never has shirked, but did his part with the fellows and even put a little extra strength into the collar when it had seemed necessary. Yesterday this pioneer Alaskan horse arrived on the Victoria and was met on the pier by Manley who saw that he was escorted safely to a stable, where, after he re- covers from the effects of the rough sea voyage, he will be taken to a farm to rest and kick up his heels in knee-high grass for the balance of his days.

CURE FOR PELLAGRA
 IS NOW DISCOVERED

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-A cure for Pellagra is the latest to be dis covered and it was given out to the public yesterday. The disease has been found to be due to a one-sided diet and the cure is merely to take a we'll balanced diet. The one-sided diet does not supply sufficient pro- teids. The disease has been epidemic at various times in Italy and some other countries where too plain diet has been necessary. The disease shows in the skin on the exposed parts of the body.
