SOLDIERS TO
GET APPLES
One for Each Man in the
Trenches is Plan of Crow
ers and Dealers.

/ MARTINsBURG. Oct. Apple
growers and dealers in New York are
engaged IN completing arrangements
to give an apple to every soldier in
the trenches and hospitals IN Europe.
A committee OF the apple trade has the
matter in hand and It is expected th a,
the shipment will be made in the near
future.
If the present scheme can be car.
ried out steamship will take over q
large cargo OF apples, which will DC
distributed under the auspices of the
Red Cross. President Wilson and Mr..
Lansing, secretary Of state, will be
asked TO request OF the belligeren.s
safe passage for the consignment to
the various fronts and hospitals.
Apple growers and dealers have
learned that many OF the fighting men
are suffering because of lack OF fruit
juices, giving rise to scurvy and otner
disorders. Surgeons who have re-
turned from European hospitals are
said to approve the scheme to provide
more fruit juices not only among the
wounded but also for the men in the
trenches.
I'VE are working on this undertake
ing purely from humanitarian mo-
tives," said one Of the committee who
is leading wholesale apple dis.rib.
.utor.
Its going to cost lot Of money
for the fruit alone. and we shall call
upon all the people engaged in the
apple industry to contribute paft OF
the expense. At first the trade ali
not take kindly to the scheme, as II
was feared ships could not be founli
to carry over the apples. Then tho
idea was conceived Of chal terlng a
ship which would take nothing but
apples, and we believe that when the
purpose is disclosed to fole.gn COW
ernments none will oppose free
passage of our ship for Il will 20 on
a mission OF charity"

Brass Band Cures c~ataIepsy.

An extraordinary instance of the
curative power of music is recorded in
newspapers recently arrived from
Italy. In a Naples hospital lay a GER
tain francesca Messina who had ar
rived from New York in a condition Of
coma. He had been asleep for seven
months and nothing the doctors could
do would arouse him.
The Countess Cell, visiting the hos
pital, suggested that a brass band be
engaged to play expressly for the
sleeper. The doctors laughed at her.
but she got the band, brought 1t to the
hospital, stationed it under the win
dow of the ward in which Messina was
sleeping and made it play its loudest
and liveliest pieces. After an hour OF
drumming and trumpeting, Messina
suddenly sat up, wide awake. He was
cured and was at once discharged
This is the third time he has had such
a cataleptic attack, the first having
been precipitated by his sweetheart
jilting him.

he rode daily. Often he returned to
the palace soaked to the skin from a
violent rainstorm.
He disliked music, a prediction
which he retains. When he was ten
years old he remarked to his piano
teacher, Signora Cerasoli:
Don't you think that 20 trumpets
are more effective than that piano OF
yours?"
In his military studies he made rapid
progress. He submitted 10 all Colonel
Osio's harshness without a murmur.
He often relates as one of the pleas

Wolkirk had not signed the will, which
