ONE FRENCH CORPORAL CAP
TURES 700 GERMANS

The capture of 700 Germans is
the exploit attributed to Pierre Gel
lier, aged %, a Corporal in the
French tank corps. Two field pieces
also were taken. Collier has been
awarded the Cross of the Legion of
Honor, a reward rarely given to any
one but commissioned officer.
Collier was in command of a tank
manned by fifteen Americans in the
recent fighting in the Marine salient.
A shell struck the tank and rendered
it useless. The men then advanced
on foot. Collier discovered the Ger
mans ambushed in a cave. He kept
guard at the entrance for an hour
when a German appeared with a
white flag. Behind the first one
came the rest of the 700, one by one
The Germans threw down their arms
before Collier and marched to the
rear at his direction.

There Is more Catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and for years
1t was supposed to be incurab]r. Doc

able. Catarrh is a. local disease,
greatly Influenced by constitutional
conditions and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca

j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is a
constitutional remedy, is taken inter

CHAMEBRLAIN'S COUGH
REMEDY.

This is not only one of the best
and most efficient medicines for
coughs, colds, Group and whooping
cough, but is also pleasant to take,
which is important when a medicine
must be given to young children.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has
been in use for many years and has
met with much favor wherever its
good qualities have become known.
Many mothers have given it their
unqualified endorsement. VIM. Scru-
by, Chillicothe, Mo-, writes: Il have
raised three children, have always
used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
and found it to be the best for
coughs, colds and Group. It is pleas
ant to take. Both adults and chill
dren like it. My wife and have al
ways felt safe from Group with 1t in
the house." Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy contains no opium or other
narcotic.

Along the Florida beaches a very

They are used for soup, being

Watches on Trim Ankles

Residents of Newark, DEL, suffered a
shock the other afternoon when two
well-known young women appeared on
Main street wearing ankle watches.
There were several narrow escapes
from accidents when drivers of auto
mobiles forgot their wheels in the ex-
element of the moment.
Nearly every store door and window
held a rubberneck and repeated calls
of "What time is it?" but the young
women did not seem to mind in the
least the furore they were raising.
They were neatly and attractively
dressed. They wore low shoes, with
black silk hose. the watches strapped
to their trim left ankles. One old resi-
denter who got a closer view of the
watches remarked:
swell / be . / have read of
such things, but never saw it before,

Right OF the Vesle some of the
Americans picked up some "triek"

and ralded a German machine gun

A HIGH POWERED SMILE

1t was Saturday evening, 6 o'clock,
one week ago last night on a Four
teenth street car, that was so crowd
ed and jammed that l almost gasped
aloud as it stopped for MORE
Christmas shoppers to step aboard.
The passengers were packed In so
tightly that the simile coming first
to mind was a Jar Of canned peas.
The middle pea in a jar would have
had Just about as much chance to
get out before his turn came as the
middle passenger in that car.
There were men and women and
children, soldiers and sailors and
war workers and horny handed sons
of toll, together with lounge lizards
and young things who simply had to
60 down town every day and loaf
around. And about ten feet from the
rear door was a timid little old lady
who wanted to get on at Fourteenth
and H streets, and who was rolled
back further and further into the car
every time she made a timid effort
to get toward the door.
Well, the conductor on this car
was No. 7S2. He is a young fellow
with a smile IN his eye and In his
voice. When the car would stop he
would open the doors and prevariA-
cate loudly: Lots OF room insideis
