How Neoroes Go to Camp.

Twelveehundred colored drafted men
went down one winter night to Camp
Upton. They arrived in the dark about
eleven o'clock. 1t was raining and
freezing. Many of the men were with
out overcoats. And they were soft,
having been walters, clerks and in 9TH
er indoor occupations. They arrived
in camp soaked to the skin, tired and
hungry. Were they cursing and
grumbling? No. They came in sing
ing:
"Geod-by, Lenox Avenue: Hello. Ber-
limp And their melodious negro
voices rang out in cheerful defiance to
the angry night, to the hard life before
them and to the possible death that
awaited them! That's the stuff that is
in Americans-and it is war that is
bringing it out.-American Magazine.

The great relief afforded by Cham

has fully proven the great value of this
preparation for weak stomach and
