Napoleon stIII Points Way.

In a tiny French village that Is
hardly a village any more. since shells
almost removed 1t from the earth, one
building has a tower standing un-
touched. A platform tops this tower
and a miniature figure Of Napoleon
stands there facing and pointing
toward the positions held by the Ger
mans.
Thousands Of shells have whizzed
and exploded by this tower, but none
has touched the tower or the figure
of Napoleon pointing northward.
Thousands ef Americans. thousands Of
trucks. quantities Of guns and am
munition and supplies have rolled over
the main street by this figure point
ing the way to the boche during the
past few weeks.
Everyone has marveled that the
tower with the miniature Napoleon
withstood all bombardment, and many
an American passing the statue among
the ruins has remarked how appro-
is this defiant figure pointing
the way.

~seventy-frth Chapter


The loose boards of the narrow
path tipped dangerously as we felt
our way over them. 1 could heal the
soft beating OLA quiet sea- A fog
crept up from Ii and added to the
perils of our way. Suddenly, out Of
the marsh and the mist, a light
cleaned family and We came upon a
fisherman's shack. The light lessened
the tension of my nerves. 1t told OF
the presence OF human beings. Even
another enemy would be a welcome
addition to my present company, 1
thought.
The cottage, like the walk we had
traversed. was built upon piles. Bre-
mer threw open the door and drew
me inside the place. I stood with my
back to the wall and surveyed the
room and its occupants as defantly
as a slim scared girl could manage to
do.
The faces before me were all fam
iliarl I had seen them last in the
hold of a submarine!
Two men were seated. A third was
stretched on an iron bed: the man
was breathing horribly with his face
turned to the wall.
Both of the seated men rose to
salute Bremen, but one, who was

chill.

h man who could stand-Bremer
called him Heinrich-spoke for the
shivering wretch:
"Bernhof died ten minutes ago."
he said, Jerking a thumb toward an
adjoining room. "Mertz wouldn't stay
in the with the body"
"God!" exclaimed Bremen In n tone
which was neither q curse nor q
prayer. 1t was despair at It's worst,
thought. Then he pulled himself
together as n who must keep cour-
age alive In a melancholy family.
Sec, Mertz. 1 have brought you a
nurse" he said. But the men knew
me of old-they regarded me doubt
fully.
"Oh, you can trust her! She'll be
game on a big OBJ like this. all right!'
Bremen insisted. "Only q fool woman
would make a fuss here tonight. She's

Heinrich. help me with a cot for
Mertz," Bremen said.
As they fetched the sick mans bed
and made him comfortable, I slipped
to the door. in a panic, mad to fee

tho house of death. But the fog had
grown denser. 1t chung to the cottage
like q garment. It held me q prison.
er as II 1t were a wall.
As Bremen closed the door Of the
room where the dead man lay he ex-
planned the situation to me:
Influenza. We buried our doctor
yesterday. But we have his medicines

talked. he studied the moaning pa
tient on h iron bed.

men while Heinrich sleeps7 He has
not rested for three nights"
IF I help. will you give me my
freedom?" 1t was the first time I
had deigned to speak to him. I think
my voice sounded very strange to
both OF us.
Il vowed you should pay a wom-
ans supreme penalty for that last
fraud. But I promise you-I will not
exact the price-if together we can
