There is no denying the fact that
thousands of American women drag
along day in and day out suffering
with these ailments peculiar to their
sex which make life a burden. If
women who suffer from dragging
down pains, inflammatory, liberated
or catarrhal conditions would only
give that greatest of all remedies,
Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, a trial, they would readily
find relief from such suffering, as the
many letters of commentator con,
stantly being published prove.

President Wilson will name Major
General Peyton c. March a full gen
eral and chief of staff, Major Gen.
Tasker HI. Bliss, now chief OF stan and
American representative on the Yer
sailles council, will become a brevet
general. These important changes
mean vastly more than merely the
honor to March of wearing the rare
insignia-four shoulder stars-they
spell the removal of restrictions on
him as acting chief which he encoun-
tered because other major generals
outranked him.

Soldiers Letter.
Init, A. E. F.

The following are extracts from
q letter written by Peter c. For
uer who is doing military police
duty in Paris, to his mother, Mrs
Lucina Former of this place. The
letter was written on the 18th of
November.
DEAR MOTHER:-I am now in
Paris doing military police duty.
I do not know how long | will be
kept here; hope not very long,
for | do not like it at all in Paris.
I like the work well enough, but
not the city, never did like the
cities-even in the States.
We can write with a little more
freedom now, as our letters do
not have to be censored. l will
write you some in French that
you may see what kind of Ian
guage we have to speak over
here, and how hard it is to learn.
| am sure | wrote more letters to
you than you ever received. |
wrote, when | was where could,
at least one a week; but when |
was at the front, Idid not have
much chance, and when we did
write. they did not always get
them sent, for sometimes the
mail carriers got killed, and our
mail would be all lost. In the
same way the carriers whose
duty it was to bring US food and
drink, would be killed. and we
would not get anything to eat or
drink for two or three days; and
one time, it was four days that
we had nothing to eat and only
one drink of water. So. you can
see what it means to play the
war game. | could write a trunk
full, but | will wait until | get
home. Hope you are well,

From Gilbert D. Everts, Co. d,
49th Eng. A. Il. F., written Some
where in France, October 10,
1918.
On our way across the Allan
tic, we saw a German submarine
about two days before we reach
ed Liverpool. We all started to
shoot. We had some very good
guns, did some rapid firing, and
in a very short time we had the
submarine. Here in France, ev-
erything is very old-fashioned-
people wear wooden shoes and
have very little to eat Dwelling
houses are buiItof rock and peo-
pie and animals occupy the same
house.
Well, ! have had some real war
experience, as every man has who
gets on the firing line. If any
one tells you he was on the
real Front two or three months,
you can put him down as a - -
fabricator, for ten days is about
the limit of mans endurance
there. ! have seen them up on
No Mans Land wounded, dying
and dead by the thousands. Air
planes were flying overhead like
flies. Talk about shooting: We
have some guns that fire 800 shots
a minute. The heavy artillery
will shoot for miles. Then, there
is the mustard gas-one breath
of it, and up goes your toes. The
grounds is full of mines, and if
you happen to be over one when
it goes eff, you are blown into
the middle of next week. In all
the battles on the Front since the
18th of July, the Yanks never
ran, and every boy was just crazy
to be allowed to go over the top.
The. only one have seen from
home since Ihave been over here,
is Bon Regi. He and | were to-
gether about ten days. He is
we'll and looking fine, Bon said
he saw Ralph Lininger and Rush
Wagner.
think the war will soon be
over and we will all be home by
spring.

Soldiers Letter.

vember by r. S. Bernhardt, was
received a few days ago by his
mother, Mrs. A. T. Bernhard Of
Bethel Township.
DEAR MOTHER II am located
in one of the incest camps in
France, This is a beautiful coun-
try and the people seem very
friendly toward the Americans.
The farms are very small.
What we would call q garden,
the French would call a field.
The fences are mostly hedge,
stone, or sod. / have seen very
few 4.wheeled farm wagons.
They use a two wheeled cart.
Some oxen are used for farming.
Where horses are used they hitch
one in front of the other. | have
seen very few hitched abreast.
When we are marching, it is not
uncommon to have two or three
dozen French children running
along, or holding our hands, ask
ing for pennies, candy, or ciga-
rettes.
We use mostly French money
which is hard to get accustomed
to. For a U. S. dollar you can
get a whole handful of French
money. One might think they
are rich till they learn the value
of it. You need not worry about
me not having warm clothing.
| have a pair of heavy WOO! socks
and woolen underwear, and every
thing that one needs. The eli
mate is also milder where | am
than in Pennsylvania.
| am going to attend church to-
day as it is Sunday. | guess you
know that the time is five hours
earlier here than at home. When
we are eating our dinner here you
people are just finishing your
breakfast. We have the pretti-
est sunsets here | have ever
seen.
Everything is very interesting,
but do not think | would want
to live here. The Indians knew
where the best place to live was
and if nothing happens | will
come back to the Indian land
some day.
When we are marching, soldiers
sometimes standing along the
road, ask whether any one is
from certain towns or states.
When any one yells "Pennsyl-
vania" there is always a whoop
from the Pa. boys. We can get
all the tobacco we want as cheap
or cheaper than at home. | am
not permitted to send address on
post cards. If anyone wants to
write me you can give them my
address.
| do not know how long we
will be kept here but | imagine
that it will be 6 or 7 months aft
ter peace. Don't expect mail
regular. When | have a chance
| will write. | have not heard
from home now for over 5 weeks
but will make allowance for
that. 1t may be that much long
er before | hear. lam well, with
best wishes for a Merry Xmas
and Happy New Year.
| am, as ever, your son.
