CHAPTER TX.

must confess that most of us be-
Heved in this at the time, that we
would soon be in Paris. Other bodies
Of troops arrived from all sides. We
had marched several hours when news
came to us that Vitry had been re-
taken by the French and that they had
seized a tremendous amount of mill
tary stores, captured the hospitals, to-
gether with their medical units and pa
tents, and that the sanitary compa-
mics also had been made prisoners. At
about two o'clock in the afternoon we
arrived at the heights which had been
pointed out to us early in the march
by our captain.
We now began to understand that
something had gone wrong. Streets
were filed with troops from all
branches Of service, trying to use the
road along which we were marching.
Being outnumbered, we were crowded
backward. Empty munition columns
raced by us in no order whatever.
They were followed by canteen and
other supply wagons. The greatest
confusion reigned everywhere. Every
minute added to the congestion until
nnally there was q dead halt. The
drivers OF some wagons left the road
and tried to pass around the congested
portions by traversing the fields, which

MERELY QUESTION or TIME
Men Knew Mule Would Do Its Part
10 Blacksmith Would Keep
On Doing His.

The conversation at social session
turned to- the thoughtless regard that
some people have for their fellow men.
when the following story was related
by Representative Charles p. Caldwell
OF New York:
Recently delegate from the rear
OF the township appeared at the vii.
1age blacksmith shop leading a mule
that didn't seem to be taking very
optimistic view Of life, and asked to
have the animal shod.
whats the matter with the shoes
he's got on?" demanded the black
smith, cautiously examining the
mules feet. "I shod him only yester-
day afternoon, and they look all right
to me-"
"Never mind how they look, jim"
.returned the owner Of the mule. "Jes'
you go ahead and shoe him agin. Me
an Jake Hawkins will pay the BILL"
"Jake Hawkins" responded the
blacksmith, wonderingly. "What has
Jake got to do with itT'
"a whole lot" was the startling re-
joinder OF the owner. "We're bettin'
on how many times you can shoe that
mule before going through the roof OF
the blacksmith shop and out among
the airships. Philadelphia Evening
Telegraph.

I eral wagons turned over and others
became Embedded in the mud. The
horses were unhitched from these and
the wagons left behind. The wagoners
mounted these horses and drove on,
forgetting everything In one wild
panic-stricken race for safety.
An officer rode up and handed an or
der to our captain. We were halted
at field close to the road. There we
were permitted to stack our guns and
rest. AS we lay at this point we
watched the passing columns. field
kitchens, munition trains, sanitary col
umns and field postal wagons racing
by in one grand carnival Of confusion.
Every wagon carried wounded men.
Their faces indicated clearly what tor
lures they were enduring as they were
bumped along over the unspeakable
roads upon heavy trucks. Stu they
were anxious to go ahead at whatever
cost. They feared the fate which
would befall them should they fall into
the hands Of their merciless enemy,
which would show them the same con-
sideration which they themselves had
offered in previous encounters, Pm
which they took no French wounded
men prisoners.
Evening came on and with it tor
rental rain. We lay in the fields,
weary and chilled through, yet no one
of our unit moved, for we were ut
terly overcome by exhaustion. Artil-
lery detachments now began to arrive,
but few of them had their required
number of six guns. Many had only
three, others two and few proceeded
with only one fieldpiece. At one time
a whole row of about fifty gun car
riages passed without any guns mount
ed upon them whatever. These bat
teries had managed to save their
horses, but were compelled to abandon
their guns to the French. Some car
riages were drawn by only two to four
horses instead of the required six.
There now passed before us some
fifteen magnificent automobiles, the ap-
pearance of which won the admiration
Of everybody.
"Ah," exclaimed many of the sol
diers, "the general staff-Duke AL
brecht of Wurtemberg and his friends"
Discomfort and murmurs of rebel
lion went through our ranks. Every

Exereislnn STIFF Joints

One Of the problems military doc
tors have had to face was that when
a man recovered from a wound 1t left
him with stiff joints. To overcome
this a series of simple exercises have
been evolved. Men with stiff knees
walk up an inclined board, keeping
one foot on the ground; stiff Shout
ders are overcome by climbing lad
ders: impaired wrists and fingers by
turning wooden rollers from which
cords are suspended; the man who
must be re-taught to walk is put
through his PAGES by the employment
Of a pigeon hole frame, which COM
pels him to place his feet properly.

body was mad and the accused tor
rental rain had no tendency to tighten
our spirits. "They have directed the
slaughter of thousands and now they
motor away" said one man, while we
are not considered"
What we were to be assigned to do
had not yet been told us. We were left
lying in our swamp until ten o'clock
that night. The troops continued to
flow back in great disorganized con-
tingentS. Machine gun companies
passed with empty wagons, having lost
their guns. The laundering of the
cannon gradually came nearer from the
west. The noise along the highways
became greater and a panic spread,
adding to the horrors Of the night. Flu
gitives wandered around in the dark
ness through the streaming rain, trying
to lead their wives and children to
safety, only to find death under the
wheels Of the wagons. The wounded
were also mangled by scores; piteous
cries for help were heard everywhere.
Under the strain of the traffic the
roads became badly broken up and all
along their sides abandoned vehicles of
every description lay.
We started forward at about three
o'clock in the morning and soon we
were with the rear guard. Infantry
regiments, now merely fragments of
their former strength, arrived in a
fearful condition. The soldiers had
thrown away their knapsacks and ev.
cry unnecessary article which might
be an impeachment to speed.
Before long the first enemy shrap-
mel burst over our heads, which re
suited in an even faster marching.

Voting by Soldiers.

The war department decided that
so far as soldiers are stationed within
the borders of the United States their
votes at either primary or general
election may be taken by the several
state governments without serious In
reference with military operations. AS
to soldiers in France or in other for
efgn soil in the theater of war the de-
partment decides that their vote cam
not be taken without serious interfer-
ence with the military efficiency.

Harriet has been to Sunday school
many times, but recently she made her
first visit to church during regular
services.
The opening prayer, it happened,
was offered by a man who put his
whole soul into his plea.
The prayer was so earnest, in fact,
that again and again from the congre-

asked.
