THE SUFFERERS OF vERDUN.

PARIS, March 5.-Reports from Verdun say that 21 persons of the civilian population have been killed by shells which fell in the city. A small remnant of the population was still reluctant to leave, but were urged by the authorities to go and they crowded on open freight cars, used for the handling of ar tillery and exposed to the snow and the cold, they departed for a safer region. One aged woman had re- fused to go, stating that she was resigned to die, but her maid, who herself wss 62 years of age, plead ed with her and finally placed her in a wheelbarrow and wheeled her eight miles through snow and mud to a place of safety.

PARIS, March 8.-"We were in a front line trench on the slope of Cote Du Poivre," said a wounded soldier who was sent to local hos pital recently.
 'The captain sent me forward to a small shelter in the open where the electric contact had been placed which led to a mine in field.
 "I crawled to 1t along a narrow tunnel without mishap.
 Through a slit looked out on the battlefield as through the open ing in theatre curtain 1 saw the Germans after long waiting march forward in good order. They thought from their observation that the bombardment had sufficiently devastated our trenches, but they were unable to see that our men had held firm and were making fresh trenches and using shell craters.
 "The Germans were 200 yards from my post when our rifles and machine guns opened fire. They were taken by surprise and crouch ed down. When the order was passed along their line to advance they began to sing The Watch on the Rhine and dashed forward.
 "My heart beat madly. They were over the mine at last. I touched the button. An internal fountain seem- ed to shoot up, in the midst of the mass of men in gray, with ma- jestic whirling of smoke. l saw men go up bodily as if from the crater of a volcano.

As to the office boys, messenger

other merchandises that are delivered

who never whistles is not unknown,
but no possible reward could bring to
light a specimen OF the genus boy who
doesn't. It's an inalienable right of
boyhood to whistle; 1t is handed down
to him with his disposition, his
freckles, his pugnacity and all those
things that so remind unkind people,
on occasions, of his father. When ia
Their was a boy he whistled; and, now
that the boy has taken the old mans
place, why, the boy whistles. It's per
fectly logical that the boy should
whistle-and. of course, boy never

So let US all figure the same way
the poet did when he requested the
boy who whistled at his work. For
otherwise no boy would be there to do
the work. And let's spread that man

Eat More Vegetables.

Tomatoes are so beneficial In their
effect on the liver that they have
been aptly styled the vegetable Gallo
mel" Celery is an excellent nerve
tonic and is good for people suffering
from rheumatism. Watercress is cred
tied with having tonic properties. We
have always known that parsnips and
carrots are good for the complexion.
The reason for this is that both vege-
tables contain arsenic, which has an
almost magical effect on the skin.
Onions are supposed to be without an
equal as a nerve tonic, blood purifier
and general cleanser of the system.
Lettuce is conducive to sleep because
II contains opium. Parsley is excel
lent for the stomach and aids diges-
tton
