MARSHAL FOCH ISBRIEF
But His Remarks to Correspondents
 Are to the Point.

London, Sept. 25.-Marsha. Foch, commander in chief of the allied ar mics on the western front who dis likes interviews and rarely grants one, received a few newspapermen at his headquarters on Tuesday. Among those received was the correspondent of the Telegram, who thus records the marshal's brief utterances, made in an ejaculatory manner with the use of hardly any verbs:
 "The British army is better than ever. It fights better than ever. All of it's losses have been made good and it is more splendid army than it has been before.
 "The Americans are splendid and are wonderfully gallant in the field. Ten thousand fresh Americans arrive in France every day.
 "The French army is the same good old army that it was in 1914. No more is to be said"
 In discussing the general situation the marshal said:
 "The enemy is shaken up and shak- en down, but is still holding out. You must not think that we shall get to the Rhine immediately. We have passed over the crest of the hill passed over the crest and are now going down hill. If we gather i'm petus as we go, like a rolling ball, so much the better"
 With few cordial words the mar shal then dismissed his! ipterviewers and resumed his work on his mape.

There's no reason why a person should take sickening, salivating cal- omel when a few cents buys large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone-a perfect substitute for calomel.
 It is a pleasant, vegetable liquid which will start your liver just as surely as calomel, but it doesn't make you sick and can not salivate.
 Children and grown folks can take Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is perfectly harmless.
 Calomel is g dangerous drug. It

 August 23rd. 1918 Dear Dad:
 Received your note of the 18th, yes terday.
 There is not much to tell about the country except that where the war has not been it is like one hig park it is very hilly and you get on a road to one town your whole route lies out before you. It is very seldom that you find road that is straight for one mile.
 They have beautiful roads where they are not cut up by shelling, wagons ambulances or motor trains. out they have had thousands of years in which to build up their country. Then in nothing of material value Goes 1t sur pass the good old It. s. A.
 If told you where I am you would not know any more than you do now. cant spell or pronounce these hea- thenish names.
 We were in the Battle O. the Marne, but have left there since We were near Chateau Thierry but went quite distance forward before we were re- lieved. In fact we averaged about a mile day advance for the month we were On Just think of men fighting in the open, for twenty days with prac- tically no rest, no sleep, and a meal when they could find time to get it, or could steal it. Not hot meal for two weeks or more. A cup of hot coffee if they happened to find a, candle to heat 1t over, and that only once or twice a week, facing machine guns, rifle fire. one-pounders and sharpnel, going for ward, always forward, in the face of gas and every other instrument of warfare the 'Boche' mind can contrive yet driving them back always. That is what our infantry had to go through with during that drive. Of course we were farther back and only had shells of high caliber, gas and aeroplanes to look out for, and we got our three meals nearly every day But we got very little rest for we had to move by forced marches every night or two so as to keep up the fellows.
 But you see that's all in the game and I never heard man grumble at all They realized that it took that to do it and they didn't give whoop.
 This is the last page o, paper have so will stop. Love to all. Troy.

 My Summer Home, France,
 September 8, 1918. MT. HCmer Welch,
 Ashdown, Arkansas.
 Dear Mr. Welch:
 In looking over the Paris edition of the Chicago Tribune of yesterday, saw the name of Herbert E. Mckinney, Texarkana, Arkansas, as being severe ly wounded. Is that OUR Herbert? I thought he was in the navy. I have had only few letters rom the U. s. A. since May 3Oth and I know very little about what is going on anywhere. have heard from only three or four of my friends who are here and know where only few are. would be very sorry to learn that the wounded man mentioned above is my friend who used to work at the Right Place. A good time is not to ce had here by sny means, of course, but we enjoy it as much as boy scout could, and conditions here are very much better than I expected to find them. Ger tainly have improved over that of last winter. I am quite sure the Sammies will not be cold nor hungry even in this most extremely cold climate, and especially the, Engineers, S1 we have been issued extra clothing complete and I think the blankets will beat the winter season here. However, might say that have already seen two wint- CTS without summer between, and it is possible that will see three winters without a summer between. You might ask what I am doing. I am just helping to make the world safe for Democrats. have been to sever al places since my arrival-staying at each place from week to three weeks and have been doing clerical work since the latter part of July. We have just finished the construction of a 10 M capacity "coffee pot" and somehow managed to put through a little better ]; than 20 M per day the first six days. We are now working two shifts which keeps the office force busy. We have two sergeants in the office, besides my self a. private. As the sergeants had never seen a plant" of this kind with their argus eyes before they were drafted to learn a trade, the private helps them to get the work out in some form, or rather they do what they are told.
 must close, but must tell you first that have new Nellie" No. can't tell you either because-it would go through the French mail all right-but not the American mail, so shall have to wait and tell you in the spring of 1921.
 With regards and best wishes to all, I am. your friend,
