The Base Hospitals Of Europe,

In addition to the helpful exercise
the tables are helped, and in one hos

THRILLS A PLENTY IN
"THE TWO ORPHANS

The 1918 version of "The Two Or
phans," in which Theda Bara is
starred, isa play that has been made
far more powerful in its remaking.
1t will be shown at the Arcade The
atre Friday, 18th. Here is a short
synopsis of it:
Henriette and Louise are sent to
an uncle in Paris after Henriette's s
parents have died. Henriette (Theda
Bara) is beautiful. Louise is blind.
Laf1eur intercepts the letter to the
uncle. He carries Henriette to his
master, the Marquis De Presles, a
libertine. Louise, left alone and cry
ing for Henriette, is taken care of by
Pierre, hunchback, who pities her.
Pierre's mother is a beggar, and her
other son is good for nothing. The
mother forces Louise to beg. Pierre
and his brother quarrel over Louise,
and Pierre kills the brother.
Meanwhile the Chevaler De Vaud-
ray rescues Henriette from the Mar
quis and wants to marry her, but his
parents object. His mother has had
child by previus husband. Hen
riette tells the mther that Louise is
not her sister, and the mother soon
learns that Louise is her own daugh-
ter. The mother reaches Louise Just
after Pierre had killed his brother.
The Chevalier's mother then gives
her consent to the marriage of Hen
riette. Luise's sight is restored and
Pierre reaps his reward.

THE RED CROSS COMES
BY JEANNE JUDSON.

Lest we forget the simple joys,
The kindly thoughts, the human tears,
The harmless laughter and the song
We knew in other happier years,
Lest we grow hard, and cruel and cold,
And being young, our hearts are old,
Held in the grasp of death undied,
The Red Cross comes to fill again,
The cup of mercy long since spilled;
Bid in our hearts the birds to sing,
Reviving joy that anger killed.

is not exactly diplomatic to laugh at
your general in such predicament.
The sentry ard his prisoner arrived
at brigade headquarters with disas-
nOus results to the sentry.
The joke was that the general had
personally issued the order for the
spy arrest. Itywas a habit of the gen.
eral to walk through the trenches on
rounds of inspection, unattended by
any of his staff. The Irishman, being
new in the regiment, had never seen
the general before, so when he came
across him alone in a communication
trench, he promptly put him under, ar
rest. yBrigadier generals wear eed
band around their caps.
Next day we passed the Irishman
tied to the wheel of a timber, the be-
ginning of his sentence of twenty-one
days, field punishment No. 1. Never
before have I seen such woebegone
expression on mans face.
For several days, Atwell and I made
ourselves scarce around brigade head
quarters. We did not want to meet
the general.
The spy was never caught.
