FAITH IN THE TRENCHES



Rudolph Fischer in Student Letter. Pub
lfshed in Germany.
l believe you think life in the trenche
is nothing but misery. and anxiety. Ger
tainly life here is not as life in a draw
ing or school room, where Everything 10
warm and comfortable. but under the cir
cumstances we are comfortable enough as
long as the enemy leaves us in peace. For
what we have lost in home comforts we
are amply compensated by seeing nature
as 1t is in reality. What a grand sight
when on outpost duty YOU stand on lonely
watch and look up to the stars in heaven.
the moon sending its mellow light down
upon, you. Your thoughts 90 up to the
creator, who has made heaven and earth.
A silent prayer goes up to God to protect
you from harm, and I am fully repaid for
the loss Of home comforts by having found
God on the lonesome watch.
To-Day was one of the happiest since I
nave donned the field gray uniform. To-
day l received what every soldier longs
for. the Iron Cross. and what is more, the
KAISER himself pinned 1t on my breast.
war Is terrible and death is our daily
compsanion wherever we go. Many a
friend has fallen: many more will follow.
VIII knows but that the next bullet may
lay me low. but freely will l give my life
Tor home and fatherland.

The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the .overwork; they
get sluggish; the climinativc tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood and poison the entire system
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps OF lead, and you have sting
ing pains in the back or the urine is
cloudy and full Of sediment, or the
bladder is irritable, obliging you to
seek relief during the night; when you
have severe headaches, nervous and

grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for gene "a

kidneys, to neatralize the acids IN

irritation, thus ending urinary and
