bowel and liver complaint with the
attendant bad breath.

AMERICAN WOUNDED Being Cared

Ambulance Drivers and Aatos Nused Back to Health by Wife OF

Links-Chateau Faces the Famous ChantiIy

Conn.,, and Russell Nichols of Bran

ing the cure" at Chantilly.
Won the War Cross.
Marcel Cuny, French youth of the
Two Hundred and Seventy-ninth regi-
ment, who lived in Chantilly before
the war, was also a guest of the Shep-
ards after he had captured a German
machine gun and six German prisoners
single-handed in the fierce fighting
along the Cheniin DIES Danes. Cuny
is not yet twenty years old and had
just been sent to-the front when he
performed the act of gallantry which
won him the War Cross with a star
and a palm on the ribbon. Cuny
crawled out in "No-Man's-Land" al
night on reconnaissance duty and
found a shell hole between the two
belts of barbed-wire entanglements, oc-
cupied by the six Germans who were
acting as machine gun team. Cuny
was armed only with grenades, and as
he squirmed forward on his stomach
to the edge Of the crater and raised
bomb to throw in among the Boches,
they all six raised their hands and
cried, "Kamerade."
Cuny ordered them to the French
lines and made them carry their ma
chine gun with them. He took the
six steel German helmets off to Chan
tilly-he was granted nine days leave
for his bravery-and gave them as
souvenirs to the American ambulance
boys recuperating there.

The Liberty Loan

The second Liberty Loan consists
of $4,000, 100000 in bonds paying Z
per cent interest per year, due in q
years, and convertible into any bonds
issued by the United States during
the war which may bear higher rate
of interest
When you buy $500 bond you re-
ceive promise from the United
States government to repay you 500
at the end of 25 years with interest at
the rate of 81 per year.
The United States has never failed
to pay it's bonds when they became
due. The credit of the United States
is the highest of any country in the
world
AS these bonds are convertible in
to any United States bonds issued
later during the war bearing higher
rate of interest, you are practically
sure of being able to sell them at any
time during the war at about what
you paid for them.
After the war, if within say five
years United States credit should sell
as before on approximately per
cent basis, you could then sell these
4 per cent Liberty Loan bonds as high
as $115 for a 500 bond.
Is there any more attractive invest
ment in the world?

PATRIOTIC HENS RAISE
THEIR OWN WAR GARDEN

Mansfield, GA. A. Arnold,
superintendent of parks, has a
flock of Rhode Island hens that
planted, cultivated and raised
a. war garden that produced a
peck of potatoes. The largest
potato weighed IL ounces, the
next one 16 ounces.
The owner says that when po-
tatoes were selling for $4.25 a
bushel last spring his wife was
so economical she pared the po-
tatoes as thin as she possibly
could, then fed the thin parings
to the chickens. Instead of eat
ing the parings, the chickens
planted them in the barnyard.
All summer long the fowls not
only kept the weeds down in
their war garCen, but kept the
bugs off. These patriotic chick
ems did their bit to win the war
by raising "a potatoes from
three stalks that came up from
the thin parings which they con-
served.
