Don't bother to prepare the mix

You simply dampsn q sponge or soft

look in a mirror for fear of what
I would see, and I think it is a duty
to tell about it." said Mrs. Annie L
Marshall, of 313 Lafayette St.,
Schenectady, N. Y, as she began a
remarkable story.

lie awake at night" she explained.
"This sleeplessness and nervousness
finally affected my throat, as l could
not speak above a whisper. The
least sound frightened me and Igot
so I could not bear to have people
talk to me.
81 was so weak I could not do
my work, and 1 would have to throw
myself on the bed before I finished
I just suffered all the time and
there seemed to be no joy in life
for me. My sister told me about
Tanlac, a new medicine for weak,
run down people, and begged me to
take it. l had no faith in it, l had
tried so many medicines, but /
knew I could not feel any worse, so
1 got a bottle of Tanlac.
."And, oh, what a change! I be
gan to feel better right away, and
my appetite increased as I ate
three good meals a day of really
nourishing food. I began to sleep
soundly. AS I began to build up, my
color became better, my eyes bright
er and I gained weight. Soon the
neighbors began to speak of my i'm
proved appearance. My nervous
ness gone, I began to enjoy hearing
people talk and like their company
1t was no task to do my ~housework,
and after I had done it I could
dress up and go calling or to the
movies. 1t was so different, and it
all occurred in just a little while"

That gun never Bothered IL again.
We were the heroes Of the battalion,
our captain congratulated US, said 1t
was a neat piece Of work, and, conse-
quently, we were all puffed up over the
stunt.
There are several ways Tommy uses
to disguise the location Of his machine
gun and get his range. Some of the
most commonly used stunts r as fol-
lows:
At night, when he mounts his gun
over the top of his trench and wants
to get the range of Fritz's trench he
adopts the method Of what he terms
"getting the sparks" This consists Of
firing bursts from his gun until the
bullets hit the German barbed wire.
He can tell when they are cutting the
wire, because q bullet when it hits a
wire throws out q blue electric spark.
Machine-gun fire Is very damaging to
wire and causes many q wiring party
to 60 out at night when 1t Is quiet to
repair the damage.
To disguise the flare Of his gun at
night when firing, Tommy uses what is
called a flare protector. This is a stove
pipe arrangement which fits over the
barrel casing Of the gun and screens
the sparks from the right and left, but
not from the front. So Tommy, always
resourceful, adopts this scheme: About
three feet or less in front Of the gun he

showing HOW fritz ID fooleo.
drives two stakes into the ground,
about five feet apart. Across these
stakes he stretches q curtain made out
Of empty sandbags ripped open. He
soaks this curtain in water and fires
through 1t. The water prevents 1t
catching fire and effectively screens
the flare Of the firing gun from the
enemy. I
Sound Is q valuable asset in locating
q machine gun, but Tommy surmounts
this obstacle by placing two machine
gums about one hundred to one hun
Tdred and fifty yards apart The gun
ION the right to cover with its fire the
sector Of the left gun and the gun on
the left to cover that Of the right
igun. This makes their fire cross; they
are fired simultaneously. a.
BY this method 1t sounds like one
gun firing and gives the Germans the
impression that the gun is firing from
a point midway between the guns
which are actually firing, and they ac-
cordingly shell that particular spot.
The machine gunners chuckle and say,
Fritz is a brainy boy, not 'alf he
amt" H.,
But the men in our lines at the spot
being shelled curse Fritz for his igno-
rance and pass q few pert remarks
down the line in reference to the ma
chine gunners being windy. and
afraid to take their medicine.

Throughout England 102 newspa-
pers have been forced to increase
their prices, and 676 weekly papers
have followed suit. The monthly
magazines selling before the war at

The cost of novels and books has
largely increased, even the popular
and widely sold classes having risen
from SO to 100 per cent.

thaf FOOT 70 aAnS extra panooHsgs W

q handy fellow; made use Of little
points that the ordinary person would
overlook.
The Germans made three counter
attacks, which we repulsed, but not
without heavy loss on our side. They
also suffered severely from our shell
and machine-gun fire. The ground was
spotted with their dead and dying.
The next day things were somewhat
quieter, bat not quiet enough to bury
the dead.
We lived, ate and slept in that trench
with the unburied dead for six days.
It was awful to watch their faces be-
come swollen and 'discolored. Towards
the last the stencil was fierce.
What got on my nerves the most was
that foot sticking out Of the dirt. It
seemed to me, at night, in the moon
light, to be trying to twist around.
Several times this impression was so
strong that I went to 1t and grasped it
In both hands, to see If I could feel q
movement.
I told this to the man who had used
It for q hatrack just before / lay down
for q little nap, rs things were quiet,
and I needed q rest pretty badly.
When I woke up the foot was gone.
He had cut 1t of with u chain saw
out OF the spare parts box, and had
plastered the stump over with mud.
During the next two or three days.
before we were relieved, I missed that
foot dreadfully; seemed as If I had
suddenly lost q chum.
I think the worst thing Of all was to
watch the rats, at night, and some
times IN the day, run over and play
about among the dead.
Near our gun, right across the pSra-
pet, could be seen the body Of a Ger
man lieutenant, the head and arms Of
which were hanging into our trench.
The man who had cut of the foot used
to sit and carry on q one-sided CONVEX
sation with this officer, used TO argue
and point out why Germany was In the
wrong. During all of this monologue.
I never heard him say anything out Of
the way-anything that would have
hurt the officers feelings had he been
alive. He was square all right;
wouldn't even take advantage Of Q
dead man in an argument.
To civilians this must seem dread
eul. but out here one gets so used to
awful sights that It makes no impress
sion. In passing q butcher shop you
r not shocked by seeing a dead tur-
key hanging from a hook. Well, In
France, a dead body Is looked upon
from the same angle. 90.
But, nevertheless, when our six days
were up, we were ticlded to death to
be relieved.
Our machine gun company lost
seventeen killed and thirty-one wound
ed in that little local affair Of
STRENGTHENING the nne," while the
other companies clicked it worse than
we did.
After the attack We went into re
serve billets for six days, and on the
seventh once again We were In rest BIZ

punIshments and Maehine.oun Stunts,
Soon altar my arrival In France; In
fact, from my enlistment, I had found
that in the British army discipline Is
very strict. One has to be very care
full in order to stay on the narrow path
Of government virtue.
There are about seven million ways
Of breaking the kings regulations; to
keep one you have to break another.
| The worst punishment is death by a
firing squad, Dr. "up against the wall"
as Tommy calls it.
This 10 for deserton, cowardice, mu-
tiny, giving information to the enemy,
footing, rape, robbing the dead, forcing
q safeguard, striking a superior, .etc.
Thsn comes the punishment Of sixty.
! four days in the front-line trench with
!; out relief. During this time you have
! to engage In all raids, working parties
In No Mans Land, and every hazardous
undertaking that comes along. If you
live through the sixty!four days you
are indeed lucky.
This punishment is awarded where
there is a doubt as to the willful guilt
OF a man who has committed an Of
fence punishable by death.
Then comes the famous field pun.
ishment No. 1. Tommy has nick1aamed
it "crucifx1on." It means that Il man
Is spread-eagled on a timber wheel,
two hours a day for twenty-one days.
During this time he only gets water,
bully beef and biscuits for his chow.
You get "cruciHed" for repeated minor
offenseR.

No. 2.
This Is confinement I'm the "clink,"

beef and biscuits for rations and doing
all the dirty work that can be found.
This may be for t~wenty.four hours OF
twenty days, according to the gravity
of the offense.
Then comes pack drill' or default.
'ers' parade. This consists Of drilling,
mostly at the double, for two hours
with full equipment. Tommy hates
this, because 1t Is hard work. Some
times he fills his pack with straw to
Tighten 1t, and sometimes he gets
caught. If he gets caught, he grouses
at everything In general for twenty
one days, from the vantage point Of a
Timber wheel.
Next comes &C. b." meaning "con'

get an occasional defaulters' parade
and dirty jobs around the quarters.
The sergeant major keeps what ID
known as the crime sheet. When q
man commits an o~ffense, he Is
'"crimed," that Is, his name, number
and offense is entered on the crime
sheet. Next day at 8 a. m. he goes to
