!, army I'm authorities state that officers,
and soldiers are on exactly the same
footing, being permitted to send
home food packages up to % pounds
in weight, but no larger.
This announcement is of interest
to America in view Of the efforts to
establish food supply organization
for Poland and to provide for Bel
rian relief. Earlier in the war Ger
man soldiers were permitted, IN adj
dition to the regulation amounts Of
food sent by field post, to bring with
chem when furloughed as mucn as
shcy could carry. Stories of soldiers
breaking down before reaching the
railway station under the weight OF
their packages, and of the frequency
of furloughs taken by officers TO
carry food to their families, were
staple jokes at the front. Vast
amounts of provisions are thus drain
ed from the occupied regions, not
withstanding the assurances or the
that no food is taken
from them to Germany.

/: RATI To- TQnkE REDUCED
Present Food Allowance in Germany
Uniustifiable and Just Bluff.

/
Unjustifiable and Just Bluff.
Copenhagen, Nov. l9.-The view
that the German authorities are puT-
suing a policy of bluff at the present
time in granting food allowances
considerably higher than are JustI-
fled by the crops of the year, secni-
ingly is confirmed by the recent food
debates in the Prussian diet. 1t was
stated in these debates mat it pro-
badly would be necessary TO reduce
both the. meat and bread rations
March /, in order to make the stocks
last through.
The bread ration already has been
reduced once, and the extent OF the
wheat and rye crops, it is consic-
cred, undoubtedly will necessitatc
another heavy reduction In the
spring. 1t was stated in the debate
that the longer the reduction vas
postponed the more dfastic VIII "
the cut.
The laboring classes generally are
complaining that the present poia-
to allowance of a pound day is IN
adequate, but it is said there Is 10
prospect of the allowance being IN
creased, as the surplus will be re-
ouired for the feeding of animals
in order to keep alive through TIC
winter the indispensable minimum
Of cattle and swine. and also for the
production of alcohol required Tor
the army.
The food authorities, according 70
all information reaching hc~r, APP
pear TO. be gambling on the chances
of peace before spring, and now maze

The Kaiser's Dream.
bYH. H. MILLER

bI n. n. MILLEN
Ii was at the silent midnight hour
When night and morning meet,
Old Nick slipped in the Kaiser's
And stood close by his feet.
He shook his horn and wagged
his tail,
AS other beasts oft do,
And cried aloud, Wake, Kaiser
Bill,
For l have come for you"
I'd thought I'd wait few months
more,
Fer l put in my claim;
And let you work your hcllish
plan,
To slaughter and to MAIN.
But now ! hear from cross the
J sea,
A giant named Uncle Sam,
Is coming this way, and if he
beats me,
You won't be worth d.
You've run the gauntlet, boy Bill,
And raised sufficient hell;
But / shall stop your mad career,
For all time, not for spell.
I'll not allow you with my guests,
For ] think you hardly fit.
But I'll cremate your body, scrape
your bones,
And drop them in the pit.
You've murdered women and
children,
And mutiiated men;
And while I've got some tough
old guys
lnhabiting my den,
And while not fit to live on earth,
Your cusscdness no one could tell
You're low-down disgrace to the
human race,
And even a disgrace to hell.
Old Bill, he tremblingly awoke,
He gaped, then rubbed his eyes,
To see the gentleman in black,
Quite filled him with surprise;
lie muttcred something indis-
tinct,
That sounded like "Verdun,'
The grizzly hair raised on his
head,
The sweat began to run.
He gazcd about with wide open
eyes,
He rubbed his troubled brow;
why, have surely been asleep,
But I'm sure awake some now.
Vot dey say bout Uncle Sam,
Und hell, scraped bones und all
dot.
Don't go init me, for don't you
know.
I'm in partnership nit Gott?'
