When Euchre had shulfled into the

with curiosity and interest in her gaze.

in Pretended alarm.
"Oh, you needn't think he's done you

Mrs. BANDS face underwent one Of
the singular changes, The smiles and
flushes and Chances, sll that had beeS
coouettish about her, had lent her a
certain attractiveness, almost beauty
and youth. But with some powerful
emotion she changed and Instantly be-
came woman of discomfort, Duane

"That only makes me see the-the

'Would Bland object If I called on

that's Certain" replied Duane.
He was SURPRISED to see her eyes
dilate then glow with fire. Before she
could reply Euchre returned to the
porch, and that put an end to the con-
versauOn.
Duane was content to let the matter
rest there and had little more to say.

to bring the girl quickly. She ap-

and bright hair.
"Don't be bashful, Jennie" said
Euchre. "You an Duane have

and then finally was marched with
$4,000 other Austrian soldiers across
the mountains into Albania and
there turned loose on the shores OF
the Adrlatlc to fight for life against
cholera, fever and starvation"
We were supposed TO have started
on that retreat" said Haller. with
a Serb army OF over 100000 men
and about $4,000 Austrian prisoners.
Not more than 10000 Of the whole
lot got over the mountains. 1t was
not because the AustrianB or the
BHlgarians pursued us, however, with
much activity. We died merely be-
cause of disease, hunger and exhaus-
ton.
'Tho worst part OF the journey
began at the Albanian frontier. The
Albanlans have in times past been
bandly treated by the Serbs. and they
took this chance to square old scores.
They shot, killed, robbed and MUIR
dered us Mt every step OF the way.
For instance. nj Linn, some Serb of
ticers and company of stragglers on
horseback were met in the middle Of
the road by n few peasants and or
dered to give up their horses and
their money. 1t was plain highway
robbery and they refused. The
peasants ran away and within n
couple of minutes more than tholls-
and shots were fired out of the
bushy hillside, killing most of the
Serbs.

Women Well Treated.
"The treatment Of the women on
this dreadful retreat was to ME the
most wonderful. the most moving.
the most heroic part OF the whole re-
treat. These poor women in their
flight from their homes had in many
cases been unable to bring enough
clothes to cover them. Often they
we're without stocking or undersktrts

seen time and tome again some Freez-

Country Publisher Hit Hard.

Some of our subscribers do not yet
seem to understand why we raised the
subscription price OF the Record to
S1.50 looking on the advance as a
measure to afford bigger profit to the
publisher, instead of what is actually
the case, an effort to avoid too large
shrinkage of oldtime living margins
which ever held out the menace of actual
loss. The steady advance in the price
of printing materials was not taken &C
count of; only the doubling of living ex-
penses and the inevitable raising of
wages of employees. But recently
everything the printer uses in making
the paper has jumped by leaps and
bounds. The commonest and cheapest
paper has in 80 days gone up s. per
cent, inks 300 and 400 percent, linotype
metal 80 per cent, and everything else
in proportion. What are we going to
do and still keep in business? We
must have more Tor the paper, for ad
vertising and for job work. To keep
in at the old figures means bankruptcy.
So please pardon the printer for ex-
hibiting little common sense along
with the merchants and other business
men. He simply has to stiffen up on
his charges to exist at aI.-Rooks
