Children of the Crusade
BY JEANNE JUDsoN.

frightened and pitiful they walk apart,
Through the familiar village street, grown strange,
Hand clasped in hand they hear weird echoes start
From ruined homes. Fear dumbs each small child heart
No tears rain down like dew to their woe;
Horror has dried the wells from which they spranR.
Like crusaders of the long ago.
Their phantom banners in the breezes blow.
If one should call out Follow! they would run,
Crime of the highway on their tiny feet,
Needless alike of dust and blazing sun,
Forget, Dreams the horrors that were done.
None calls weary they rest within the shade,
The ruined church, where they learned to pray.
Long years before the war had come, and laid
Their homes in ruins made their hearts afraid.
Before the Holy Mother low they bow,
Perhaps she hears and soon will bring them aid.
It must be she whose voice is calling now,
For see the cross is shining on her brow3
The light around her head, nimbus CLEANS,
A Red Cross worker not from Heaven, they know,
Yet Mary heard and sent her here it seems,
To lead them home to shelter and to dreams.

An old enemy is with US again, and

we must put up good fight, and not Be

if we keep the system in good condition
and throw off the poisons which tend to
accumulate within our bodies, we can
escape the disease. Remember these
three C's-a clean mouth, q clean skin,

from the System and keep the bowels
loose, daily doses of pleasant laxative
should be taken. Such q one is made
of May-apple, leaves of aloe, root Of
jalap, and called DR.. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets. Hot lemonade should be used
freely if attacked by cold, and the
patient should be put to bed after hot
mustard foot-bath.
To prevent the attack of bronchitis or
pneumonia and to control the pain,
Anuric tablets should be obtained at the
orug store, and one given every two
hours, with lemonade. The Anuric tab
let's were first discovered by DR.. Pierce.
and, as they flush the bladder and
cleanse the kidneys, they carry away
much OF the poisons and the uric acid.
1t is important that broths, milk, but.

SURRENDER IF GERMANS
 WAS PURELY ACCIDENTAL

LONDON, May 25.-Surrender of German force of 5000 men in East Africa was due to the chance drop ping of number of bombs by a Brit ish airman, according to a report from Capetown, which says:
 An officer of the flying corps was out on reconnaissance in the region of the Rovuma river, but found nothing to bomb. Being forced to discharge his cargo of bombs to tighten his ma chine for the homeward trip, he chose a quiet spot and dropped them all, causing, of course, considerable noise.
 "The German general. Tafel, was at the time marching to join his chief, Won Lettow, but news of the explo- sions was reported to him, and he, thinking large force of the enemy must be somewhere in the district, diverted his line of march and before long bumped into a British force.
 ultimately his whole force, 5000 strong. surrepdered."

DENMARK'S 5 PORK SUPPLY
 BEING USED AT HOME

COPENHAGEN, May 25.-Den- marks stock of swine, which amount ed to about 2,5OO,O0O head at the out break of the war, has now dropped to 100000, according to latest estimates. Further serious inroads on this stock are being compelled by the impossibil- ity of importing fodder, principally corn. In 1913 Denmark's total exports of pork were nearly 250,OOO tons, of which just under one-half went to England. All exports have now been stopped, and the outlook for supply ing the domestic consumption's re- quirements will be dark if the war continues much longer.

Father of Punctuation.

The present system of punctuation,
now used in all modern languages with
but insignificant variations was intro
duced in the first half of the fifteenth
century by Venetian printer named
Aldus Manutius. He is the real father
of punctuation marks-of the full stop,
comma, semicolon, colon, question and
exclamation marks, apostrophe and in
verted commas. Manutlus' system was
adopted later by all printers until It
finally established Itself throughout
Europe. Courler-Journal
