The Bravest Battle.

The bravest battle that ever was
fought
Shall tell YOU where and when?
On the maps of the world you will find
it not;
Twas fought by the mothers OF
men.
Nay, not with cannon or battle shot,
With II sword or noble pen;
Nay, not with eloquent words or
thought
From mouths of wonderful men!
But deep in wallcd-up woman s
OF woman that would not yield,
But bravcly, silently bore her part
Lo, there is that battlefield!
No marshalling troops, no bivouae
song,
No banner to CLEAN and wave;
But oh! these battles, they last so
long
From babyhood to the grave
Yet, faithful still as a bridge of stars,
She fights in her walicdup town
Fights on and on in the endless wars;
Then silent, unseen, goes down.
Oh, We with banners and battle-shot,
And soldiers to shout and praise!
| tell you the kingliest victories
fought
Were fought in those silent ways.
o spotlcss woman in a world of shame
With splendid and silent scorn,
Go back to God as white as you came

Relief in Pulmonary
Or Throat Troubles

depends largely on the sufferers abil-
ity to upbuild a weakened system, and
thus hasten return of normal body
functions.
In this effort much depends on fresh
air-night and day-and rest and good
food. The patient should refrain from
work that overtaxes. and all sanitary
precautions should be taken. These
commonsense measures do not always
achieve the desired results unless aid
ed by proper medication.
1t is here that Eckman's Alternative
has evidenced its worth. for in many
cases it has effected lasting benefit
And often such troubles seem to yield
to 1t.
In no case is it's use attended with
possible harm, since 1t contains no
poisonous or forming drugs.

CAMP GOV. GATES Aup l.

Ninety-two rockies of the regular
army arrived Wednesday afternoon at
the post, coming from Fort Slocum,
where they had been stationed 33 days
They will stay here 10 days for drill
and instructions, then they expect to go
to the fort at Plattsburg to be trans
ferred to different companies.
Thirty-thrce of the unassigned caval-
ry were transferred to the infantry
Thursday. This about completes the
transferring of the cavalry to the in
fantry, except that they are not
equipped as yet. The machine gun
troop, with top Sergeant Marshall in
charge, is out drilling about every day
Next week they expect to have target
practice on the range.
Major Batchelder was a visitor in
camp Thursday for few minutes, wear
ing citizen clothes. A week or SO ago
when they first were talking about
transferring the cavalry, the major
made a speech to the Norwich boys, in
which he stated that he would be only
too glad to serve as private under Col
Reeves. The band is practicing i'll the
Y. NJ. C. A. and the noise drives all
thoughts from my brain.
We had fine weather up to Sunday
night, when we had a severe electrical
storm, lasting over an hour Yesterday
was very hot and muggy, although a
slight wind was blowing.
The excursion brought us few Wis
| itors, among them being Mr.. and Mrs.
j ohm l. Lane of IL Northern avenue
who have three sons in camp. Charles
Aher and Thomas Austin visited the
boys Mr.. Thompson stopped to see his
son, George.
The LIST Infantry band gave concert
on the grounds Sunday afternoon, which
drew a good number of visitors from
Burlington and Winooski.
Summer clothes are to be issued tc
the "rookics' at the post before they
leave for Plattsburg as they are still
wearing winter uniforms of wool olive
drab cloth.
The infantry boys are getting enough
hiking. Friday and Saturday they hike,
about 10 miles each day with shan
battle and skirmish drill before re
turning. Yesterday they went on
l5-mile- hike and had a sham battle
using blank cartridges. They certainl,
are tired bunch when they return t
camp for the noon mess.
We are being fed with the best o
food and there is no complaining fror
anybody.
There is much discussion as to whe
we leave, and few of the boys ar
getting discouraged, as it does begi
to look as though we were going to sta
here. All we want is the chance to Sc
the border, or have them move us t
, some other place, anything except stay
, ing in this camp.
Privatcs Frank Lynch and Henr
