us, we gave wholesale orders as soon
as we could.
Well, now, I've seen since the awful
destruction wrought in the orchards
by Fritz, but, believe me, Fritz never
made such a clean sweep Of that bit
of France as we did. We had given
our orders at night, and behold, next
morning the fields were bare. We'd
come down on the good folks like To-
Gusts, but, unlike the locusts we paid
for what we devoured.
Tommy'S CheerfuIness
Isn't it queer how a thing like that
will stick in ones mind in sprte of all
one has since seen? May be just as
well, though. Keeps one sane to think
of the bright things. God knows
where Tommy would be~if he thought
of horrors only. Here's another lit

bully, of course, with coffee and tea
and anything nice we got from home
by way of variety. But biscuit and
bully made up the basis, and it got
sort of tedious at times, to say the
least.
Result-we were always on the out
look for tit-bits. You'd wonder what
sort of tit-bits would come our way
in mud-wastes, wouldn't you? Listen.
One evening just towards dusk,
when we were keeping a sharp look
out for sneaking Fritzies-they were
over the way, only about five or six
hundred yards-we heard a strange,
yet curiously familiar noise down
among some grass which had been
left in No Mans Land. Thought at
first that Fritz was up to some new
dodge, for he's terribly fly" is Fritz
We listened hard a little longer.

He did not seem sure himself
though, and was determined to fire
at the least movement.

You've never been in France?
Well-believe me, France is just a
big battlefield.
When 1 landed, fighting looked to
me as If it was the national profess
sion. At the port where we left His
Majesty's Ship "Blighty," the quays
were swarming with people, all most
terribly busy handling and asserting
articles fwar.
Ships derricks swung and creeked
all the time, trains were moving off,
trains were coming in; men going up
the line were swearing; men coming
down the line, bound for England
Home and Beauty" were laughing
Everybody and everything made UP
the greatest turmoil you ever saw.
1t was ripping.
On the way up to our quarters we
forgot to swear for g. time-until we
got nearer the scene where Fritz the
Frightful had been having his picnic
Then we swore more than ever. But
1t was a different kind of swearing. Il
was a revengeful swearing now.
I don't care who the man Is who
sees France today-northern France
] mean-he'd fight like fury after
looking at the place. Even a heather
who'd never heard of France would
like to have a smack at the beast:
who'd wrought such ruin. We're no
heathens, I hope, but we had oul
smack at the Boche burglar before
we were finished, 1 can tell you.
Hunger and "Onions''
When we got up to our billets WI
were terribly hungry. 1 remembe
the hungry bit all right. And wha
made US hungrier than ever was tn
sight of the lettuce and onions ant
early potatoes growing all around tn
place.
Funny, wasn't it, to see them grow
ing on a battlefield?
But the French folks will plan
their potatoes, even though shells ar
knocking them out of their hands, s.
to speak. Homes home, you know, b
1t ever so battered.
Anyway the sight Of all these gree
things in the midst of so much re-
ruin made us hungry, as say, and be

PLANS FOR THE

Plans Will be Put into Op-

Are Withdrawn.

Winnipeg. Can. Dec. 5.-Plana for
the rehabilitation of Canada's $780,
304 overseas troops under a system
intended to meet economic and indus
trial conditions have been completed
and will be put into operation when
withdrawal Of the forces is consented
to by the high command.
After considering available ship
ping facilities and rolling stock in
Canada, the imperial ministry Of
shipping and the Canadian war board
nave concluded that the rate of re-
turn can approximate 10000 men a
month.
nomic phases Of rehabilitation re-
suited IN = decision to first return
men whose trade classification
showed there was immediate use for
them in industry. Preference is to
be given married men. the order Of
their return to be determined by the
length of time in overseas service.
Then single me- will be returned
along the same genera! lines.
Classification OF the troops into oc-
cupational groups by the militia de-
partment was deemed advisable to
meet the requirements of the labor
market in the various districts. To
return the men regardless OF their
occupation in civil life n demands
Of the labor market in their respec-
tive districts would work a hardship
upon thcm as we'll as upon industry,
officials decided.
Latest figures list 2S6,304 as the
number of Canadian troops overseas.
An estimate of how these men will
be distributed among the various
provinces. based on the ratio Of en-
]istment in each province. follows:
Ontario. 121,500: Quebec. $500;
New Brunswick. 1880; Nova Scotia
and Prince Edward Island, $4,000;
Manitoba. 33,500: Saskatchewan, 49,

bia, rs, 500.
The problem OF bringing back from
England the wives n families of
Canadian soldiers, estimated at 35,-
900 persons. has been placed with
the department of immigration. They
will be returned to Canada as quick
ly as possible, as the government de-
sires to have the soldiers homes re-
established before their arrival.

phosphate prevents illness
and keeps us fit.

Just as coal, when it burns, leaves

day leaves in the alimentary canal a
certain amount of indigestible ma
terial, which IL not completely

becomes food for the millions of bac-
terra which infest the bowels. From

and ptomain-like poisons arc formed
and sucked into the blood.
Men and women who can't get feel
ing right must begin to take inside
baths. Before eating breakfast each
morning drink a glass of real hot
water with q teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash out Of the
thirty feet Of bowels the previous

toxins and to keep the entire alimen-
tary canal clean, pure and fresh.
Those who r subject to sick head

others who wake up with bad taste,

ness, or have a sou gassy stomach
5After meals, are urged to get a quarter
