 Your letter of March 1st just re- ceived. Today is Sunday and I tried to go to church, but the church is closed, as all the civilians have left town. It is a pitiful sight to see the old people trudging along the road with their belongings, some with a COW or horse, and a few chickens and ducks. It all comes back to me now what read and the pictures I saw ! before coming over here. I am getting a real taste of the whole thing from digging trench or dugout to going over the top. We have been in it from the start.
 I am enclosing a letter which was received by our colonel which speaks for itself. The same general who wrote it had us pass in review and afterwards gave a little talk compli- menting both ourselves and our coun- try on the sterling qualities and steadfast attitude of oua president That goes all right behind the Tines but it is different story when you are where Fritzy is taking a peck al | you whenever You show your head.

could scarcely hear have had their
hearing restored 10 such an extent
that the tick Of a watch was plainly
audible seven or eight inches away
from either ear. Therefore. if you
know OF someone who is troubled with
head noises or catarrhal deafness. cut
out this formula and hand il to them
and you may have been the means of
saving some poor sufferer perhaps
from total deafness. The prescription
can be prepared at home and is made
as follows:
