that one of the reasons the United

bond between this nation and their
fatherland.
Mrs. Zehner is a woman of very

equally commended by the men

PARIS-Some queer stunts per-
formed by bullets are described in
the current number of Gazette Medi-
Gale.
One wounded man in the Cambria
hospital has eleven bullets in his
body. He is not only progressing
satisfactorily, but has never been
placed on the dangerous list by tho
doctors.
Another was hit by a bullet that
pierced his jaws, destroying all his
teeth; but his tongue was not even
touched, and the net result of his
wound was a swollen face.
Still another had his body traversed
by bullet that passed just a little
below the heart without touching any
vital organ. He walked three miles
to the nearest field hospital: there
an antiseptie bandage was applied to
his wound, and the next day he re.
turned to the battlefield.

that could never, never be more than a
pretend-and oh, how tired she was of
pretending!
A REAL splash of human color had crept
