FROM HERMAN BROOCH,

'SV Vt@1t"VUN 0H0NSFs
The following letter was received
from Lieut.. Herman Broccoli, written
from Belgium, Nov 6.
Dear Friends:
Suppose you all have been saying
a number Of unpleasant things about
me for not writing but no doubt if
you were in my place you would of
not been able to write either. You
see / have been on the firing line
since / left Paris, October 8.
Since that time have had some
very rare experiences, have been in
two battles, and came out un-injured,
except a few hemorrhages caused by
he heavy: Smelling.
At one time my platoon was under
cover and I assure you did some
hard thinking and l said more than
one little prayer. Some Of the men
had with me I recommended for
distinguished service crosses.
In the last battle + went in with a
platoon and came out leading com
panv. This may sound queer, but will
explain 1t all some day
In this company ! recognized a
familiar face and asked the sergeant
if he knew If he was from North ia
kota and he said, eyes. So had him
sent in and here if it wasn't George
Finnegan. I spent the night with him
and we met Joe Barth that used to
work in Bergeson's. | assure you we
all had good old talk.
Now ! want you to all writeSreal
often as letters are the only thing
over here. Fl
Best regards to all, ".,-.

other, "A Thousand Years" two melo-
dies of haunting beauty which these
perfectly balanced voices render with
charm that is inimitable.
Last but not least among the CO.

splendid selections played by the
popular Naval Reserve Band, led by
Leader Shannon himself. One OF
these, "A Slippery Place." is without
doubt one of the most startling and
interesting musical Stunt" pieces ever
recorded.

Three of the most exquisite instru-
mental records made are to be heard
among the December group OF Co.
lumbia Records which are now going
on sale at dealers. The first Of these
records is made by no less than the
Metropolitan Opera Orchestra play

I'll Trovatore." The second is by the
world famous Trio de Lutece, mini
allure ensemble of famous musicians
led by George Barrere, the worlds
greatest flute player. They play the
Incompatible melodies Spring Song"

"Minuet." The third carries two
marvelously beautiful clarinet solos
by Thomas Hughes, the most notable
OF which is Scenes That Are Bright

Two other records of especial note
in the December group are of operate
arias. One, the brilliant "Parigi 0
Cara" from Traviata, is sung with
tremendous dramatic power by Bar
rientos and Lazaro; the other is the
great barytone solo from the "Ballo
in Maschera Vita"-sung by
Stracclari.
Barbara Maurel, the young singer
whose debut here recently has created
so much comment in musical circles,
also contributes two beautiful lula
bies on one of the new Columbia Rec
ords. They are "Song of the Chimes"
and "The Slumber Boat"

WHAT EVERY HOUSEWIFE
" SHOULD KNOW ABOUT GAS

To read the meter, notice that the
dial on the left registers 10000 cubic
feet between the ngures. The sun:
of the feet indicated on the thres
dials is the amount used for the
month. The meter pictured, there
fore, shows that as the 1J,000fee;
indicator has passed the mark, or
$4,000, the 1O00-feet Indicator has
passed the mark and the 100-feet in
dicator is half past the mark the
total is $3.50 feet.

oven doors, strike the match, turn on

the back burner of the oven, then the
front burner, and, when both are light
ed, turn off the leader and close the
door. Except when trying to bring
water to a quick boil, or to heat the
oven quickly, the flame in all gas
burners should be kept low and pro.
tected from drafts. In using the oven,
heat it with full flame from five to
ten minutes before putting in the
food; allow five minutes for the food
to heat through, then lower the flame.
In using the top burners, guard
against the boiling over Of water or
foods which may get into and clog

Dentists tell US that acid mouth, causes
the eating away of enamel on the teeth, a
substance much harder than bone. keep

teeth" -.,.s- ~. ~ s:r.5 y.
Think Of this-you can at once see what
an excess of acid in the stomach-acid-
stomach-means in the way Of undermine
ing ones health and strength!
Many people make the awful mistake of
thinking that acid-stomach-s uperacidity
as the doctors call it-merely causes an
occasional attack of indigestion, bloat,
heartburn, belching, sour, gassy stomach,
and similar troubles than can be quickly
remedies-and leave no serious after eff
fects. As matter of fact superacidity is
responsible for long train Of serious all
ments. It sometimes creates conditions
which battle the best medical skill. It is
we'll established fact that most cases of
chronic stomach trouble, anemia, stomat-
tits, gastritis, rheumatism, govt, lumbago,
intestinal ulcer, many cases of cancer of
the stomach, valvular heart trouble and
heart failure find their start in acid-stom-
ach.
The excess acid must be removed. The stomach
must be kept pure, sweet and strong, free to Ill
gest food properly. That is the only sure way 70
avoid the evil consequences Of acid stomach and to
enjoy vigorous, robust health.
A wonderful preparation now makes it possible
to quickly remove acid-stomach. 1t is called
EATONIC-a pleasant tasting compound that
EATONIC literally wipes out the hurtful ex
cess acid and drives the bloat out of the body.
You can fairly feel it work. It is absolutely harm
less and no matter how weak or delicate the

In the present time of fuel short
age, it is as important to conserve
gas a.ld use it without waste as it is
to save coal. from which gas is dl-
rectly manufactured.
First, every housewife, should get
acquainted with the gas meter. The
power to read the meter and compute
the family gas bill is a safety meas
ure against mistakes and possible ov-
charges by a gas company, and also
enables the housewife to judge wha;
is the average monthly gas consump-
ton and suggests economies.
Above is photographed the dia:
placed upon the face of every gas
meter Gas is estimated by cubic
feet, and its price is based on units
of 1000 cubic feet. In different To-
calities the price Of gas differs. c.
ties having the advantage of a natur-
al gas supply are able to use gas
at cost OF from thirty to fifty cents
a thousand feet. Artificial gas costs
from eighty cents to dollar and q
used to measure and keep account OF
the gas used in each household. Gas
bills, when presented. should state
the number Of feet used, as we'll as
the charge made. =
The meter is read once month by
a gas company employe, who records
the meter readings in a book opposite
the house owners name. These fig
ures are later compared with the reac.
ing of the previous month and the
bill computed according to the fg-
ures. The meter indicators are NOT
returned to zero after each reading.
They continue to register automatic
ally, and the amount of gao used each
month is only to be learned by com
pairing the figures with those OF the
previous month. That is why it Is
important that both the gas company
and the consumer should note the me-
ter readings and be sure that their
figures tally.
