MOST ELIGIBLE PLACE

Eaton, Ind, Enterprise: Here is a
story they tell on Southern doctor
in connection with smallpox scare
in his home town. The doctor was
sent to the home of a woman who
washed for living. She had a large
number of children and they had been
exposed to the disease. He recon-
mended that the woman as well as
the children be vaccinated. The good
woman said she had no time to stop
and be sick with vaccination and be-
sid es could not spare one of her arms;
that the children would go hungry,
if she could not do her laundry work.
Then the doctor said, 81 will vaccin-
nate you on one of your lower limbs.
"No sir" said the woman, 81 can't
spare one of my lower limbs either.
Then the doctor kindly said: "Well,
what spot could you spare because
you must be vaccinated." The old wo-
man thought and finally said slowly:
"Well, Lord knows / don't get no
chance to sit down."

TOBACCO IN THE TRENCHES
Helps Soldiers to Forget Danger
Cold and Hunger

AUA0 6AAA
Berlin, Jan. 6.-Cigars and cigar
cites are the most highly valued ar
ticles at the front. In an interesting
letter, just received here, a German
soldier tells of a trade where he ex-
changed so cigarettes for a whole
steer. He writes:
"Most of our boys at the front are
inveterate smokers. They know the
value of good weed. Sometimes a
good smoke will make you forget
that your stomach is empty.
"For the last two days have been
subsisting on bread and cigars. Our
field kitchen-the goulash gun, as we
tie line, and so we must live on what
we carry in our knapsacks. A heavy
black cigar will tide you over for a
day when there is nothing else to
chew.
"a few days ago we were all long
ing for some fresh meat. There was
none for miles around. Suddenly a
Bavarian detachment came along, with
whole drove of cattle. First they
refused to let US have any, but after
some bargaining they traded fat
steer for fifty cigarettes.
every soldier in our army is sup
piled with two cigars every day at
present. Besides almost everybody
receives tobacco from home But
some of the cigars we received were
terrible. They were so bad we could
not smoke them. So we threw them
over to the French, who eagerly gath
cred them in. They were so delighted
that they gave us some cognac in ex-
change. This was before they com
menced to smoke the cigars. After
they had lighted them they got highly
indignant and commenced to fire at
US like mad.
'"There were days when we had
nothing to smoke, but dried tea leaves
and straw. Then again we have to-
bacco but nothing to light our pipe
with. We are not permitted to have
fire in the trenches, for the smoke
would draw the enemy's fire. Match
es are very scarce and our electric
flashlights give light, but no fire. One
of my comrades has overcome this
difficulty by using strong magnify
ing glass which he found in the pock-
ct of a French officer killed in battle
This works all right when the sun is
shining.
"At times cigars were SO scarce we
had to throw dice in order to decide to
how many puffs each one of US was
entitled to. was unfortunate enough
to get only three puffs."

DEVOTED TO HORSE.

What might be said to be the romance
of Mr.. Nelson's life was his devotion to
the horse which bore his name. When
this horse was at the height of his fame,
fabulous prices for those days were Of
fered for him, 1.-THE then unheard of price
of 500, 900 being offered by syndica tie
OF New York men. To all these the man
turned deaf ear, declaring that the old
horse should never pass from his hands,
and long after the animal had outlived
his usefulness, a good stall and plenty to
eat was his portion. Thus for number
OF years lived the most famous horse of
his time, until unable to eat longer, the
old man led his companion of years to
the field back of his house and there with
his own hands ended the life which had
meant so much to him. 1t has been said
that Mr.. Nelson was never the same after
the death of the old horse and that his
then failing health developed rapidly to-
ward the end.
With the passing of Charles Horace
Nelson the race track of Maine and par
tlcularly the Waterville track loses it's
most famous figure and it is doubtful if
ever again there rises man in Maine
who will bring such personality and
ability to the track as this man.

OUR SUNKEN CLIPPER SHIP

When the German officers of the Prinz
Eitel Friedrich sank in the South Allan.
tic the American ship William P. FRYE.
from Bath, they may not have known it.,
out they were striking the sharpest pos
sible blow at the heart of maritime New
England. Bearing the name of a great
senator, revered by all who love the sea.
the Frye for years has been the most
famous square-rigger under the Ameri-
can fiag-a great, stately, beautiful YES
sci, as Immaculate as a yacht allow and
alott, with sky-piercing spars and broad
wings OF snowy canvas. Many a New
England sailor who saw her as she Law at
anchor off the piers at Seattle last au-
tumn ready for this, her fateful, final
voyage, realized that she was the very
finest embodiment of modern shipbuild-
ing and seamanship-a TIT successor,
albeit of sturdier type, to the Flyi 2
Cloud, the Dreadnought, the Sovereign
of the Seas, or the Great Republic.
Two decades ago the Sewals of Bath,
as celebrated in their time as the Nc
Rays OF Boston, determined that wooden
sail ships for deep-sea commerce had at
tanned the zenith of development in the
Shenandoah of 3406 and the Roanoke of
3539 tons. More tightness ard rightly
OF hull than wood alone could give were
requisite In such long vessels for Cape
Horn voyaging. So the yard that for a
hundred years had launched wooden ships
was turned over to steel, and there were
launched in succession the Dirigo, Frs
kline M. Phelps, Arthur Sewall, Edward
Sewall and William P. Frye for Arthur
Sewall & Co., and the cine, Astral and
Atlas tor the Standard Oil Company-al
four-masted vessels, square-rigged on
three masts, ranging in size from 1898
to 1881 tons. OF these the William P.
Frye, launched in 1901, was one of the
latest and save only the Atlas the largest,
OF the most superb fleet of clippers OF
this generation-th last fleet of this type
that will ever be constructed.
The Frye and her sisters were of the
medium clipper class, designed not for
speed alone but also for the safe carry
ing OF heavy cargoes. In these tall steel
ships the art of the sailship builder, rig
ger and saimaker reached it's highest at
talnment in the United States-in YES
sells nobly combining strength, speed and
nautical and commercial efficiency. These
are the Yankee sail-ships that have held
out longest against al-conquerlng steam.
1t would have been easy for the COM
mander of the Prinz Eitel Friedrich, with
his large crew, to complete the throwing
over of the Frye's grain cargo until only
enough for ballast remained and then
order her to port of the American con-
tinent. But counsels of ruthlessness
prevailed; the dearest sail ship in the
American merchant marine has been de-
stroyed, but fortunately the doer of the
deed is in our hands, and there is abund-
ant opportunity for enforcing compensa-
ton or reprisal. Boston Transcript.
