TELL OF ENEMY'S APPROACH
Certain Birds and Animals Make tho
Best Kind OF SentineIs That an
Army Can Employ.

A wounded soldier, asked what had
surprised him most in the battle zone,
told of finding a robins nest in an
empty shell case.
AS rule birds are the finest SEN
tfncls in the animal kingdom. They
become aware Of approaching aircraft
long before man hears anything. Early
in the war parrots were kept at the
Eiffel tower as sentinels, but they
grew accustomed to the sound of en-
envy planes and were no longer of use.
Pheasants always grow restless and
chatter noisily if zeppelins areA up
preaching, even when they are far
away, so far that man can hear no
sound
What is perhaps stranger is the fact
that such ordinary creatures as pigs
should sight balloon when it is COM
Ing over The "blister" makes no
sound. yet, should one appear against
the sky, miles from a farmyard, the
farmer will be made aware of the fact
by the curious antics Of his pigs and
the clucking of his hens.
Toy dogs always are susceptible to
the presence of danger, and many
pet shows uneaslness before a raid.
Cats, too show fear of gunfire and
seem to know when danger threatens.
Dogs, birds and horses are very SEN
sitive to sound. Watch the birds dur
Ing a daylight raid, listen to the dogs,
and visit the stable where the horse
restively stamps up and down. But
that all animals can accustom them
selves to sounds that cause fear Is
proved by our cavalry horses, dogs
that accompany their masters into the
firing line, and the robins nest in the
empty shell case.

CURE FOR FLU
Nov. IA, 80.

Below we are publishing at the re-
quest of one OF our subscribers, a
home RENEE y for Spanish influenza
to be used where Doctors cam not be
had:
Take two pieces Of worn sheet
ing large enough to cover chest
Spread thickly with lard and add 20
to 80 drops of turpentine. Sprinkle
enough Scotch snuff (not black
snuff to give plasters a. dark
brown color Mix lard, snuff and
turpentine thoroughly with case
knife. After patient has taken hot
bath in water to which a cup of
salt and two spoonsful of mustard
have been added, plaster should be
applied to chest and back, both well
up near the neck. Cold cloths should
be wrapped on wrists and head and
changed occasionally until fever is
reduced
Mrs WEIGH claims that not one
death has occurred where this treat-
ment has been used and is especial
ly effective as home remedy while
the shortage of doctors is so acute.
1t is quite simple too
Well, stay at home and tell your
friends to do the same. That seems
to be the wiser plan these days.

GUNS BETSY AND ELSIE
Yankee Artillery at he ront Follow
Gallant Custom of French
Cannoneers.

Following gallant custom of the
French artillery, the boys of Battery
in one of our own F. A. regiments,
decided TO name their guns after those
whom they considered the outstanding
| figures anlong the patriotic women of
American history.
Many were named but two were
| chosen. The first, according to Stars
and Stripes, France. was Betsy Ross,
who, in her little house in Philadel-
phia, made for General Washington
the first American flag. The second
was Elsie Janis, who, in the little huts
of France, made the first hit of the
A. e. r.
These guns are of the railway ar
tillery," the captain says, "and among
the most powerful in France, and the
names selected are now painted on the
carriages. where they will be constant
Inspiration in the future, and, we hope,
credit to their namesakes."
One OF these two namesakes, who
probably never thought of herself as
a figure in American history at all. is
just back from tour of the front
where she had a good many thrills, in
Guiding the thrill of finding her name
In divisional general orders.
There she delighted one Of the bands
by turning drum major throughout a
long march, cheered up some young
German prisoners by talking to them
In their own tongue, and came away
much pleased by the news that Elsie
Janis III had just raised merry h
with a German machine gun emplace-
ment.
Upbuilds Chinese Army.
Ken Wang, twelfth graduate in the
1919 class at West Point academy, q
yenr ahead of time. announced that he
will return to China to take part In the
upbuilding of its new army.
Ken Wang was selected to come to
America to be educated In the best
military academy in the world ex-
pressly for the part he is to play In
bringing military conference into Chi
nese army affairs.

When father decided that his son

formed the boy that punishment was
not far off and went into the yard to
cut a switch, says Indianapolis News.
When he returned the boy was gone.
He searched and did not find. Then
he called his wife and both of them
searched. They searched low but not
high. for if they had cast their eyes
aloft they would have seen that the
boy had climbed telephone pole and
was safely out Of harms way for the
time being. A neighbor spied him and
gave away his whereabouts. The boy
sought compromise, saving he would
come down at declaration of peace
and no sooner. The compromise was
finally effected on the promise that the
next time he needs a whipping he viii
get one twice as hard as is needed, to
make up for the one he missed.

PRICES DURING CIVIL WAR
Sugar $50 a Barrel, Rice $3.50 a Bar
rel, Tobacco, Tea and Coffee Much
Higher Than Now.

High as prices are, it may be some
consolation to know that they are still
below the Civil war records, Sugar
then sold for $50 a barrel, rice at
S31.3S a barrel, tobacco at more than
double the present price, and tea at
over 500 for a 25-pound chest as
compared with the present price of
about $50. Coffee was then four times
as high as it is at present. says Les
lies.
If the difficulty In getting hold of
sugar makes the American people real
ize We are at war, and inspires in
them willingness to follow Mr.. Hoov-
er's suggestions as to economizing in
the use of certain foods, it will have
accomplished some good.
While complaining of food scarcity,
1t is well for our people to know how
little food others have. The German
ration contains Al of a pound of body
building protein as compared with
LOS In the standard ration. The Ger
man ration is not sufficient to main
tain bodily health and vigor, but the
civil, population In the occupied dis
tricts of France and Belgium have to
exist on even less than this.

WONDERFUL STUFF!
LIFT OUT YOUR CORNS
Apply a few drops then lift corns or
eaIIuses off with Fingers
no pain.

No humbug! Any corn, whether hard,
soft or between the toes, will loosen
right up and lift out, without particle
OF pain or soreness.
This drug is called freezone and is a
compound of ether discovered by a Gin.
cinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for a small
bottle of freezone, which will cost but
a trifie, but is sufficient to rid ones
feet of every corn OF callus.
Put a few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. Instantly
the soreness disappears and shortly the
corn or callus will loosen and can be
lifted off with the fingers.
This drug freezone doesn't eat out the
corns or calluses but shrivels them with
out even irritating the surrounding skin.
Just think! No pain at all; no sore
ness or smarting when applying it or
afterwards. If your. druggist don't have
freezone have him order it for you.

Pope Benedict Is known to have a

spondent.
This gentleman, with the best inten.

to paint his portrait, which would

alongside of the masterpieces of the
universe.
The pope granted the request, but
stipulated that he should give only
one sitting, and that the portrait
should be finished by help Of photo
graphs.
: The portrait was finished recently.
The artist found it so good that he
longed to have it shown first in Amer
lea, lest his fellow citizens should re-
proach him for hiding such a work of
art in Italy, without giving them
chance of admiring his genius. To this
the pope graciously agreed. But the
artist went further.
AS there are SO many spurious por-
traits of the pope, would his holiness
write few lines to prove to skeptical
Americans that the artist had really
painted the masterpiece? The pope
promised few words in few days.
They arrived. To the painters aston
ishment-and chagrin-they proved to
be from the Gospel of st. Matthew,
chapter 14:27. They ran: 'It is 1; be
