The men of England Scotland, Ireland, France,
Italy and Belgium fighting; they are not on the

therefore been greatly reduced Even before the war

The difference between production and consumption
is greater than ever and at the same time food

says lnside-bathing makes any,
one look and feel clean,
sweet and refreshed.

Wash yourself on the inside before
breakfast like you do on the outside.
This is vastly more important because
the skin pores do not absorb impuri-
ties into the blood, causing illness.
while the bowel pores do.
For every ounce of food and drink
taken into the stomach, nearly an
ounce of waste material must be
carried out of the body. If this waste
material is not eliminated day by day
it quickly ferments and generates
poisons, gases and toxins which are
absorbed or sucked into the blood
stream, through the lymph ducts which
should suck only nourishment to sus-
tain the body.
A splendid health measure is to
drink, before breakfast each day, q
spoonful of limestone phosphate in it,
these poisons, gases and toxins from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels; thus cleansing, sweetening
and freshening the entire alimentary
canal before putting more food into
the stomach.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate costs but very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to make anyone
an enthusiast on inside-bathing. Men
and women who are accustomed to
wake up with dull, aching head or
have furred tongue, bad taste, nasty
breath, sallow complexion, others who
have bilious attacks, acid stomach or
constipation are assured of pro-
nounced improvement in both health
and appearance shortly.

TIA. he would be supeFstltious and I
was right. I said that Of course he
knew that ship could not draw near
Cape Helles and get away again un.
less at least one man was lost, or that,
if 1t did get away, there would be
many casualties aboard. ! said It had
always been that way and claimed
that the Old Man had pushed this
rarby overheard because someone had
to go. l said on our other trips no
one had been sacrificed and that was
the reason we had suffered so much.
and that the Old Man had been called
down by the French minister of the
navy. told him the Old Man would
pick on whatever garby he thought
he could best spare.
That was all I had to tell him. Eli
ther he thought the Old Man knew of
his yarning or else he did not think
himself of much account, for he dis
appeared that very watch and we did
not see him again until we were on
the homeward voyage and a steward
happened to dig into provision hold.
There was our lying friend, with
life belt on, another under his head,
and the blight Of rope around his
waist, fast asleep. Why he had the
rope I do not know, but he was scared
to death and thought we were going
to chuck him overheard at once. l
think he must have told the officers
everything, because I noticed them
looking pretty hard at me-or at least
I thought l did; maybe 1t was my
conscience, If 1 may brag about hav-
Ing one-and thought one of the lieu
tenants was Just about to grin at me
several times, but we never heard any
more about it, or any more yarns from
our wireless friend.
The fourth voyage was pretty r0ugn,
too. The old girl would stick her
nose into the seas and many times l
thought she would forget to come out.
We had a lot of sand piled up against
the wheelhouse and after we dived
pretty deep one time and bucked out
slowly, there was not a grain of sand
left. It looked like the sea was just
kidding us, for we were almost into
ouiet water, and here it had just taken
one sea aboard to clean up the sand

hardly any sleep, no water, sometimes
no food. They made mark there at
Gallipoli that the world will have to
60 some to beat.
Our boys were on the job, too. We
neld our part of the works until the
time came for everybody to quit, and
it was no picnic. The French should
be very proud of the work their navy
didothere in the Dardanelles.
On our sixth trip 1 saw H. NJ. s.
Goliath get it. She was struck three
times by torpedoes and then shelled.
The men were floundering around In
the water, with shrapnel cutting the
waves all around them. Cnly a hum
dred odd of her crew were saved.
One day, off Cape Helles, during
our seventh trick at the Dardanelles.
we sighted q sub periscope just about
dinner time. The Prince George and a
destroyer sighted the sub at the same
time, and the Prince George let 60
two rounds before the periscope dis
appeared, but did not hit the mark.
Transports. battleships and cruisers
were thick around there, all at anchor,
and it was great place for . SUD
to be.
In no time at all the destroyers
breezed out with their tails In the
air, throwing smoke screen around
the larger ships. They hunted high
and low, all over the spot where she
had been sighted and all around 1t,
thinking to ram it or bring it to the
surface, so we could take crack at
it. All the rest of the fleet-battle-
ships and transports-weighed anchor
at once and steamed ahead at full
| speed.
1t was a great sight. Any new ship
coming up would have thought the
British and French navies had gone
crazy. We did not have any fixed
course, but were steaming as fast as
we could in circles and half circles,
and dashing madly from port to star
board. We were not going to allow
that sub to get straight shot at us,
but we almost rammed ourselves
doing it. It was case Of chase-tail
for every ship in the fleet.
But the sub did not show itself
again that day, and we anchored
again. That night, while the destroy
ers were around the ships, we slipped
our cables and patrolled the coast
along the Australian position at Gaba
Tepe, but we did not anchor.

and taller ones, told US by one Of the
wireless operators, that some of the
garbies believed. This chap was the
real original Baron Munchausen when
1t came to EARNING, and for while he
had me going too. He would whisper
some startling tale to US and make us
promise not to tell, as he had picked
it fromOsome other ships message, and
the Old Man would spread-eagle him
If he found it out. They probably
would have logged him, at that, if they
had known he was filing us full of
wind the way he did.
He told me one time that Henry
Ford had invented something or other
for locating subs miles away, and also
another device that would draw the
sub right up to it and swallow 1t
whole. He had lot of other yarns
that I cannot remember, but I did not
believe him because saw he was
picking out certain men to tell certain
yarns to-that is, spinning them where
they would be more sure Of being be-
lieved and not just spinning them any
where.
So I got pretty tired of this STUFF
after while and when we put out
from Brest on the fourth voyage I
got this fellow on deck in rough
weather and began talking to him
about the chap who had gone over
board the time before and had been
cut up by the propeller I pretended
that, of course, he knew all about it
that the Old Man had had this garby
pushed overheard because he was too
free with his mouth. But this did not
seem to do any good, so had to think
up another way.
When we were out two days l got
hold of our prize liar again. figured
Williston graphic., 1918-11-14

with her band up on the main deck
playing, "Everyb0dy's Doing It." It
made you feel shivery along the spine.
and believe me, they got q great hand
from the whole fleet.
They say her Old Man told the boys
he was going to drive right ahead and
that II the ship was sunk he would
know that the enemy was somewhere
in the vicinity. Well, they were headed
right, but they never got past the,
'Narrows. They stuck until the last
minute though, and those who went
mn. went up with the right spirit.
"Are we downhearted2" they would
yell. "No!" And they were not. either.
They did not brag when they put 1t
over on the Turks, and they did not
crouch when they saw that their Red
CAPS had made mistakes. Their motto
was, "Try again." and they tried
day after day. i do not know much
about the histories of armies, but I
do not believe there was ever an army
like that of the allies in the Gallipoli
campaign, and I do not think any
other army could have done what they
did. take off my hat to the British
army and navy after that.
It was hotter than I have ever
known it to be elsewhere, and there
was no water for the boys ashore but
what the navy brought to them-some-
times pint day, and often none at
all. The Turks had positions that you
could not expect any army to take,
were we'll supplied with ammunition
and were used to the country and the
climate. Most of the British army
were green troops. 1t was the Anzacs'
first campaign.
They were wonderful boys, these
Australians and New. Zealahders.
Great big men, all Of them, and finely
built. and they fought like devils. 1t
was hand-to-hand work half the time;
Williston graphic., 1918-11-14

During the whole voyage you cOulu
not get near the galley, which was
where our wireless friend hung out
when he could. The pans and dixies
hanging on the wall stood straight
out when the ship pitched, and several
heavy ones came down on a cooks
head while he was sitting under them
during heavy sea. That made him
superstitious, too, and he disappeared
and was not found for two days. But
he was a landsman and not used to
heavy weather.
Wien we got to the Gallipoli penin-
sula the fifth time our battle fleet
and transports lay of the straits. We
could not reach the little harb0r on
the Turkish coast, but the whole feet
felt happy and fairly confident Of vic
tory. We lay off Cape Helles. and 1t
was there we received the news that
there were submarines lying around
Gibraltar. Then they were reported
of Malta. We got the news from Brit
ish trawlers and transports. Our OH
GERS said the subs could not reach the
Dardanelles without putting in some
where for fresh supply Of fuel, and
that the allied fleets were on the look
ou: at every place where the subs
might try to put in. But they got there
just the same.
Then the British superdreadnaught
Queen Elizabeth, "the terror OF the
Turks" came in. She left England
with a whole fleet of cruisers and de-
stroyers, and all the Limeys said,
"She'll get through. Nothing will stop
her."
One of the boys aboard of her told
; me he had no idea the Dardanelles
would be as hot a place as he found
it was. "Gaw blimey," he said, "what
with lodging shells and submarines,
you cawn't 'elp but run onto bloomin'
mine. Hi don't mind tellfn' you," ne
said, ''that Hi was scared cold at hrst.
And then Hi thinks of what 'Oly Joe
(the chaplain) told us one service.
Hin times of dynger, look upwards

blimey hif there wasn't q bally plane
a.droppin' bombs hon us. What price
hupward looks, Oily Joe?' I sings out
but he weren't nowheres near. Blarst
me, there weren't nowhere you could
look without doin' yer bloody heye q
dirty trick"
| When the Queen Elizabeth entered
the Dardanelles, the Turkish batteries
on both shores opened right on her
They had ideal positions, and they
were banging away in great style. And
the water was simply thick with
mines, and for all anybody knew, with
subs.
Yet the old Lizzie sailed right along

CHAPTER xI.
Action at the pardanelles.

I made twelve trips to the Darda.
uelles in all, the Cassard acting gen.
orally as convoy to troop ships, but
one trip was much like another, and
{ cannot remember all the details, 80
[ will give only certain incidents Of
the voyages that you might find inter-
esting. We never put into the Darda'
uelles without being under ire-but
besides saying so, what is there to
write about in that? It was interest.
ing enough at the time, though, you
ran take it from me!
Coming up to "v'' beach on our
third trip to the Dardanelles, the
weather was as nasty as any have
ever seen. The rain was sweeping
along in sheets-great big drops, and
driven by the wind in regular volleys.
You could see the wind coming, by the
line of white against q swell where
the drops hit. .
. As We rounded the point. the seas
got choppier, and there were cross
currents bucking the ship from every
angle, it seemed. You could not see
two hundred yards away, the rain
was so thick, and the combers were
breaking over our bows three a min
ute. The coast here is pretty dan
gerous, so we went in very slowly
and had the sounding line going un-
til it's whir-r-r-r sounded louder than
a machine gun in action.
I was on the starboard bow at the
time and had turned to watch some
garbies poking at the scuppers to
drain the water off the deck. But the
scuppers had been plugged and they
were having a hard time of it. The
officer on the bridge, in oilskins, was
walking up and down, wiping off the
business end of his telescope and try
ing to dodge the rain. All of the gar.
bies but one left the scuppers on the
starboard side and started across
decks to port. The other chap kept
on fooling :"ound the scuppers. Then
I saw v wave coming for US, Just
off the starboard bow and I grabbed
hold of stanchion and took deep
breath and held on. When my head
showed above water again the other
end Of the wave was just passing over
the place where the garbies had been,
and the officer was shouting, "Un
homme q la mer!" He shouted before
the man really was overheard, because
he saw that the wave would get him.
I rushed back to the port bow and
looked back, for the wave had carried
him clear across the decks, and saw
the poor lad in the water, trying to
fend himself off from the ships side.
But it was no 60. and the port pro-
.peller blades just carved him into bits.
On our homeward voyage we re.
'ceived word again by wireless that
there were Zeppelins at sea. We did
not believe this and 1t proved to be
untrue. But there were other stories
