that it hasn't bothered me a bit For the past couple of weeks 1 have been Quar:.ntined. Nothing serious, but they wouldn't let us go out of the gate or into the city. A number from here have been transferred to Hoboken N. J., making some of the fellows feel kind of blue. for they know it will not be long before they will be sailing across. I have all I need in the army; they fitted us out down here in great shape. I have two suits and two nice pairs of tan shoes and all the clothes anybody could wish for This camp is some different from Camp Devens wish 1 could send a picture of some of the men down here. This is a small camp and about all enlisted men and, say, there are some fellows fifty years old; big, yes, weigh about three hundred pounds This is a quarter masters camp, such as machinists. mechanics, automobile repairers and ether workers in that line. There are only about four thousand here, but at the lower end of the city is Camp Meade; about fifty thousand there When left Camp Devens thought I was going to Georgia, but landed here. The first two weeks I was here, say there was some sights taken in We would have retreat nights at half past four and we didn't have to show up until o'clock the next morning. I didn't stay out as late as that, but there were some times stayed in the city until late. I've been to some good shows down here and they have great | theatres. --t
 Christmas week they had Harry Lauder and John Mccormick, a couple of pretty good entertainers. I've seen Lauder and if the quarantine had been l lifted would have seen Mccormick Washington is not pretty city, al- l though there are some fine buildings I have been all around the city. The camp isn't very far from the post of- fee and treasury. Guess it is about three miles from camp to the Wash ington monument and the White House. Just for the fun of if, Mrs Russi, I went with good fellow tc the top of the monument. Walked >uI and then down; they have an eleva- tor in the monument, but we walked it just to tell about. We were told il was five hundred and fifty feet high That's the highest I've ever been. We could see the whole city from the top
 It isn't very cold here and we have
 but little snow. Say, we have swell
 eats down here, Mrs. Russi. Today
 we had nice roast beef, mashed pota
 toes, a nice raisin pudding, goot
 bread, milk and sugar in our coffee
 and the feeds are always. good. Tel
 Martial that I expect to go fishin:
 again with him. You know we coult
 always catch fish.
 I think this will be enough for thi time, Mrs. Russi, but will write agail
 before long. I hope the new year vii

AT THE DAVIS THEATRE.
Vaudeville and Movina Pictures.

After the usual three days of mov- ine picture attractions for the first half of the week the Davis theatre is presenting for the remainder of the week three acts of Keith vaudeville, six part Aircraft film production and a Current events film. The show is one of the best brought here this sea- son by the Davis management. On Thursday afternoon and evening large sized au6.cnces applauded the Home mura Troupe. five Japs, who have an unusual sensational offering. Another act of merit was that presented by Morlins, who is styled the accordion wizard and who certainly knows how to handle the sweet toned instrument. Dolly Grey and Bert Byron have the third vaudeville act. Theirs is a clev- CT comedy skrt entitled, A Girls Weight.
 The Rise of Jennie Cushing is the name of the six part Aircraft fea- tlre finn. It is a picturization of the Mary s. Watts novel and the leading role is earned by Elsie Ferguson. The Currents Events film is. just as inter- esting as ever. carrying all the latest news in pictures.

 STOMACH RELIEF.

You don't know what upset your stomach-which portion of the food did the damage-do you? We'll don't bother. If your stomach is in a re- volt: if sick, gassy and upset, and what you just ate has fermented and turned sour; head dizzy and aches; belch gases and acids and eructate undigested food breath foul, tongue coated-just take a little Pape's Dia- pepsin to neutralize acidity and in five minutes you wonder what became of the indigestion and distress.
 Millions of men and women today know that it is needless to have dys- pepsia A little 'Diapepsin occasionally keeps the stomach sweetened, and they eat their favorite foods without fear.
 If your stomach doesn't take care of your liberal limit without rebellion; if your food is a damage instead of a help. remember the quickest, surest, most harmless antacid is Pape's Dia- pepsin which costs only fifty cents for a large case at drug stores. It's truly wonderful-it stops food souring and sets things straight, so gently and easily, that it is really astonishing Your stomach will digest your meals if you keep acids neutralized.
