THE FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN.

The campaign for the Fourth Lib.
erty Loan will begin September 2S
and close October 10. The result of
the loan will be watched with keen
interest in Europe, not only by our
associates In the war against the
Teutonic powers but by our enemies.
It will be regarded by them as a
measure Of the American peoples
support of the war.
The Germans know full we'll the
tremendous weight and Significance
OF popular support of the war, OF
the people at home backing up the
Army in the field. AS the loan sue
ceeds our enemies will sorrow; as it
falls short they will rejoice. Every
dollar subscribed will help and en-.
courage the American soldiers and
hurt and depress the enemies of
America.
The loan will be a test of the 10y
atty and willingness of the people of
the United States to make sacrifices
compared with the willingness Of our
soldiers to do their part. There must
be and will be no failure by the peo-
pie to measure up to the courage and
devotion of our men in Europe. Many
of them have given up their lives
shall we at home withhold our money
Shall we spare our dollars while the
spare not their very lives?

RarnatoIs Dilemma.

Barney" Barnato was member Oh
the Cape Town assembly and was de
lighted in scandalizlng the members OF
parliament. During a debate on the
Cape liquor law, which prohibited the
sale Of Intoxicating drinks on Sunday
except as an accompaniment of sub
stantial meal, he said:
"a few Sundays ago / walked seine
distance from Cape Town, and being
buslly engaged in mentally reviewing
the course of business in the honorable

One dark and rainy night while on
guard we were looking over the top
from the fire step of our front-line
trench, when we heard a noise imme-
diately In front of our barbed wire.
The sentry next to me challenged,
Halt. who comes thereT' and brought
his rife to the aim. His challenge was
answered in German. A captain in the
next traverse climbed upon the sand

but foOlhardy deed-"Crack" went a
bullet and he tunlbled back into the
trench with hole through his stomach
and died few minutes later. A lance
corporal in the next platoon was so en-
ragged at the captains death that he

lads" A sharp dynamite report, a flare

We Immediately sent up two star

soon returned, carrying two limp

CHAPTER xIx-Continued.
il

At one point of the line where the
trenches were very close, stake was
driven into the ground midway De
tween the hostile lines. At night when
it was his turn, Tommy would cra"l
to this stake and attach some LONDON
papers to it, while at the foot he wouio
place tins of bully beef, flags. sweets
and other delicacies that he had re-
ceived from Blighty in the ever looked
for parcel. Later on Fritz would come
out and get these luxuries.
The next night Tommy would go out
TO see what Fritz put into his stocking
The donation generally consisted OF a
paper from Berlin, telling who was
winning the war, some timed sausages'
cigars, and occasionally a little beer
but a funny thing, Tommy never re-
turned with the beer unless it was In
side of him. His platoon got Whit OF
his breath one night and the offending
Tommy lost his job.
One night young English sergeant
crawled to the stake and as he tried to
detach the German paper bomb ex.
ploded and mangled him horribly. FRITZ
had set a trap and gained another vic
tim which was only one more black
mark against him in the book of this
war. From that time on diplomatic re-
Iations were severed.
Returning to Tommy, / think his
spirit is best shown in the questions he
asks. 1t is never "who is going to win"
but always chow long will it takeT

Be Above Gossip.

Gosslping is about the most useless
kind of work one could possibly en-
gage in. How much better and more
charitable 1t is to turn a deaf ear to
cruel truths. to honorably keep silent
about what we have heard, and at the
same time give the unfortunate person
in the case the benefit Of our doubt.
"Small wits talk much" is an old say
ing and true one. The girl or woman
who would be truly happy, and who
incidentally would make others happy,
should wisely think twice before she
speaks, and then should put into words
only thoughts that are cheering and
charitable.-New York Evening Mail.
