With wink he replied:
"There was no damage; we missed
them again"
After several fruitless inquiries of
the passersby, decided to go on my
own in search Of ruined buildings and
scenes of destruction. boarded q bus
which carried me through Tottenham
Court road. Recruiting posters were
everywhere. The one that impressed
me most was q life-size picture Of
Lord Kitchener with his finger point
ing directly at me, under the caption
of ''Your King and Country Need YOU"
No matter which way turned, the
accusing finger followed me. was
an American, in multi, and had little
American flag in the lapel of my coat.
I had no king, and my country had
seen fit not to need me, but still that
pointing finger made me feel small and

to dissipate this feeling by mixing
with the throng of the sidewalks.
Presently / came to recruiting Of

lonely Tommy Atkins. I decided to in
terview him in regard to joining the
British army. I opened the door. He
looked up and greeted me with II s'y,
myte, want to tyke on?"
I looked at him and answered, swell,
whatever that is, I'll take chance
at It,"
Without the aid Of an interpreter, I
found out that Tommy wanted to know

asked me: ibid you ever hear of the
Royal Fusiliers?" Well, In London,

everything, so was not going to APP

After listening for one half-hour to
Tommy's tale of their exploits on the

One of the most attractive booklets
issued recently is the year book put
out by Swift & Company, covering the
activities of the big packing concern
during the year 1917. Serving as an
Introduction is the address of the vice
president, E. F. Swift, to the stock
holders, in which he tells Of the abnor-
mally high prices paid for live stock
in Chicago and of the prices obtained
for meat; of the investigation by the
federal trade commission, and the Ii
censing by the government of food dis
tributing agencies and the limiting of
profits on slaughtering and meat pack
ing to 8 per cent on money employed.
Mr.. Swift also told with pride of the
various branches of the United States
service, and concluded with the state
ment that Swift & Company would do
their utmost to help win the war.
An interesting and illuminatiye sec
ton of the booklet is that devoted to
duction, and another is given up to
telling 'sthe packers service to pro-
Queer and consumer" Figures are
given showing that the net profit of
the company per head, 1912 to 1916,
averaged $1.22 for cattle, less than Is
cents for sheep and less than IS cents
for hogs. 1t is explained that the large
aggregate profits-are due to the inn
mense volume Of business done.
The booklet is handsomely illus
trated with photographs and color
prints and the cover Illustration, made
from q photograph of corn farm in
Ohio, is especially attractive.

During my visit, the evening twi-
light had scarcely disappeared before
the morning twilight chased the gloom
Of night away. One could read out
of doors until after eleven o'clock.
These long days. with scarcely any
night, force vegetation to grow at a
dollhouse pace. Land and water have
no time to cool. Summer comes in
this strange land with sudden burst
of flowers, sunlight and birds.
Finland is a land of pine and fir
clad hills, for only comparatively
small portion seems to be cleared.
The most of the country is fairly level.
so that it has not the grandeur of the
Scandinavian kingdom. In the cleared
portions stand neat little<wooden cot
tages, which are usually kept freshly
painted, red being the favorite color.
Surface drain bitches are made in. the
cultivated fields every few rods, and
all seems most carefully titled.
Helsingfors, the capital of Finland,
is one of the interesting towns of
Europe. Water seems to surround it
on every side. 1t dates back to 1850,
when it was founded by the Swedish
king Gustavus Vasa, and the liberties
of town were Immediately conferred
upon the little hamlet as special ia.
vor From the water side it is pro-
tected by the great fortress of Svea-
borg, which is called the Gibraltar of
the Baltic" and of which one occasion
ally reads in the news dispatches. The
highest point in Helsingfors is crown.
ed by great and imposing Lutheran
church, and the majority of the Films
are adherents of this faith.
Scenes In HeIsingfors.
Through the center of Helsingfors
runs a great boulevard, known as the
Esplanade-Gatan and this is the center
of life in summer. The schools close
for these months and everybody en-
joys one long holiday so far as pos.
sible. One day seems almost to melt
into smother. The young women one
sees Helsingfors are of the blue
eyed, Y-axen-haired type, for the Swed.
ish type seems to prevail here. Young
girls, almost to the end of their teens.
wear their hair in two flaxen braids
that hang down the back. They have
the same social freedom as their sis.
tiers on this side of the Atlantic.
The market Of HelsingfOrs is an ex'
cellent place to study the Firms and
their characteristics. From all over
the surrounding country the peasants
drive into the towns with their pro-
duce, and sell it direct to the townfolk.
A small farmer may have killed
sheep or pig, and may be observed
driving a keen bargain for the best
cuts. Another has few tiny kegs OF
butter covered with layer of grass to
keep it cool. Under old cotton umbrei.
las sit the market women with highly
colored waists and black or white
handkerchiefs tied over their heads.
In a small basin are the boats of the
fishermen just in from their catch.
The housewives or maids pass from
one stall or boat to another, inspecting
their wares. A little after noon the
fishermen and market merchants, who
have come by sea. set sail, the cotton
umbrellas come down, the wagons roll
away, and the entire market disap-
pears as by magic.

RELIABLE PRESCRIPTION
FOR THE KIDNEYS

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
1t is a physicians prescription.
Swamp-Root is strengthening medi-
cine. 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blad-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp Root has stood the test of years.
It is sold by all druggists on its merit and
