My friend, the French corporal. es-
capped from the German prison camp
into Switzerland, and is now back in
the trenches lighting the cause of
civilization with renewed, vigor. His
experience in Germany has convinced
him that life would not be worth liv-
ing in a world dominated by the Hun.
But Germany's brutality to helpless
prisoners Is but a small part of her
campaign Of f~rightfulness. In every
German regiment there is what is
known as a "Hellish Squad" Their
job Is to poison wells. III off the
hands Of children and plant mines
and bombs in villages.
The war department at Washington
has, taken precautions against Ameri-
cam soldiers being caught by the
snares and traps which the HELL
ish Squads spread thickly through
territory they are forced to evacuate.
A special~brochure On this subject has
been prepared by the intelligence d.

who are to be held responsible for the
proper warning of their mag.

AMERICAN RISKS.
LIFE TO MAKE THE
TROOPS COMFORTABLE

Paris, Sept. 12.-Repeatedly ex-
posing himself to terrific shell fire,
giving first aid to the wounded and
going without rest or food that he
might help those on the firing line
with cigarettes and sweets. we're only
a few Of the things that won the
personal commentator of a battalion
commander for Stephen r. Brown of
st. Louis, a Y. M. C. A. secretary.
The battalion commander writes:
"On a recent severe engagement,
Stephen R. Brown displayed I'M
daunted courage by time and again
exposing himself during terrific shell
fire. Employed during the whole of
one night at a medical station, the
following afternoon he brought up gas

helmets that every Allied soldier
covets as a trophy lying apparently
%innocently on the ground and UNDER
meath a decorating device for a mine
that would blow to atoms the soldier
who picked it up.
But perhaps the most hellish trick
OF the "Aellish Squad" is known as
the double coffin"
Counting on the Allied troops de
string to give a decent burial to any
dead they find in captured PLACES, the
Germans place n coffin on top of
another. The instant the upper cot,
fin is moved a charge of high explo-
sive is detonated and the soldiers who
suppose themselves about to perform
the last office for a dead enemy are
themselves killed.
The indictment against the Hun is
growing daily; there seems to be no
limit to his infamy. Yet the worst
thing he does is to make brutal war
against little children. I have told
about the little boy who had his
hands cut off at the wrists, and now
I will relate a case even more terri

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT
EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected

An examining physician for one of the
prominent life insurance companies, in an
interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so COM
mon to the American people, and the large
majority of those whose applications are
declined Edo not even suspect that they
have the disease.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root Is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
it's remarkable record of success.
We find that Swamp Root is strictly
an herbal compound and we would ad-
wise cur readers who feel in need of such a
remedy to give it trial. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
; medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR.

 They elected six members to act as shop committee from among their number, two of them being toolmak- CTS and gauge makers, two of them women employees, one a machinist, and the other an apprentice. They selected this committee becaues it represented every department and branch of the work in the company's factory.
 The committee, after its election, which was elected by the unanimous vote of all the employees, then elected chairman and sent a request in to the president of the company for an audience, and to see whether they would be received. MT. Harris an- nounced his willingness to receive the committee. in whole, and upon their stating the case to him. assured them of the hearty cooperation of the company, and of the fact that the company would, as rapidly as possi- ble, with the assistance of the exam iner of the Taft-Walsh Board, pro- ceed to carry the decision regarding the wage question, into effect.

DUKE" FARRELL IS 52.

Charles Duke" Farrell, who in the past few years has kept his finger in the baseball pie by acting as coach and scout, will pass his 52nd year to- day. The Duke was born at Oakdale, Mass, on Aug. S1, 1866. In his day Charley was one of the star backstops of the big leagues-and his day was long one. He broke into the big top with Cap Anson's Chicago Ma tionals back in 1888. In 1890 he hoped to the Boston Players League outfit. He was with the Boston Ma tionals in 1891, Pittsburgh in 1892, Washington in 1893, New York in 1894 and 1895, Washington again from 1898 to 1899, Brooklyn from 1900 to 1902. and then with Boston in 1903, remaining there until his play ing career ended in 1905. Eighteen years in all Duke" spent behind the stick in the main works of balldom, which is some record. Farrell got his nickname of Duke" because of his imposing appearance and his sartor- ial magnificence. In fact, 1t would be safe to bet that few if any real dukes have ever been clad so magnificently as His Grace Charles Farrell, Duke of Diamonds.

GIANTS STR|UMPHIN LESS THAN 1 HOUR
Major League Record of 56 Min. Is Set When Brook
 lyn is Beaten by 1 to 0.

There were many meritorious fea- lures of the game which the Giants won from the Dodgers by 1 to 0 at the Polo Grounds yesterday. To be- gin with the combat lasted only fifty six minutes, which was highly appre- ciated by the 1900 persons who sat in the stands in decorous silence.
 The fifty-six minutes set new ma jor league record for speeding off a game. The old mark was one hour, made in 1882 by the Philadelphias in beating Chicago by Il to 0. The American League record is one hour and eight minutes, made in 1915 when the White Sox whipped the Ath- letics by to 0.
 Today the Giants will wind up their home season with a double header with Brooklyn. Children will be ad- mitted for 10 cents.
