Then they threw a bomb on the
PROSTATE body of the lieutenant, ther
turned him over and shot him through
the forehead. After cutting off his
insignia that his regiment might be
identified, they ran.
Meanwhile the barrage had been 81
fenced by our guns, and as the Ger
mans were endeavoring to make theil
getaway, four Of them were killed by
the lieutenant's men. They took his
body back and carried it to the vii

And here on this historic ground
over which Caesar fought his wars

REDEEMED with the blood Of soldiers
under Napoleon and Butcher, this
young American hero was laid to rest.
OF all the wars that have ravished
this fair land, the present wal in
which our American boys are engaged
is the only one ever fought for free
dom. When the records of men who
have fallen on this field in this cen
fury, and in the bloody centuries of
the past, are made up, the recording

When We returned to the village,
although the hour was late, the boys
were waiting and insisted on a meet

into a trench foyer-and such a meet

fairs and home folk, of the strange
environments surrounding US. During
the meeting a sergeant came in and
announced that the men of Company

that suspicious circumstances had

that day that there were practically

next ten weeks.
A captain told me the boys were

they were enraged over the treatment
of the body after death was certain

PROTECTIVE o

We have heard much in recen'
years about two very importan'
growth promoting substances" called
vitamines which are said to be vitally
necessary for our well being. One o.
these is found in butter-fat, milk, egg
yolk, the leaves OF plants, glandulal
organs, such as kidneys, liver and
sweetbreads; in traces in the germs
of seeds, muscle tissue, animal fats
The other one is in almost all foods
except bolted flour, degerminated
cornmeal, polished rice, starch, sugar
and in fats and oils.
1t is no more Of a problem to get
these substances in our food than il
is TO get plenty Of mineral matter in
the same way. In fact as far as the
second one of these growth promot
ing substances" is concerned, there
is almost nobody in the United States
who does not get it without any spec.
ial effort on his part.
In order to get plenty of mineral
matter and a good supply Of the first
growth promoting substance" we
need only to remember TO eat plenty
of milk and milk products, and plen.
ty of the leafy vegetables. These
should be considered as protective
foods and we should eat some of them
every day. They will make good the
elements lacking in bread. cereals,
potatoes and other tubers and in veg
etables such as beets, turnips and
radishes.
Drink plenty Of milk. Eat all the
pure ice e you want, provided
you do not III over your sugar allow.
ance. Use butter and cheese. Make
milk soups and milk desserts. Try
to include n Of the following in you

Swiss chard, collards, Brussels sprouts

persons who eats all of the salad but

examined the bowl carefully for a
leak, but it was like the silk hat of
the stage-not a hole to be found.
Still that snowy heap would trickle
out somehow.
Undoubtedly it was a trick bowl.
The sugar didn't leak out, and no one
meant to take more than his share.
Yet here it was Friday, with two days
to go before We were supposed to
have used up that sugar., and the bot.

open, but were connected up in some
mysterious way with the foliage about
them. The roadway was transformed
into a pergola. Funny little railway
tracks, not more than four feet wide
ran under boughs and led back
through narrow avenues OF trees,
their tops intermingling, to the dy-
manic forces of war.
A weird note of alarm, such as the
scaly monster of the sea emitted as
he emerged from behind the curtain,
and the forms along the roadside
quickly assumed the appearance of
gnomes and hob COLLINS, as the men
put on gas masks.
1t proved a false alarm, however.
and presently We went on to a vii
lage into which Car boys go to rest
Immediately they come out of the
trenches. This village is a mile from
the front line trench. A ravine that
is just a dry cash across the field con-
meets the village and trench. Down
this We went with haversacks filled
with chocolate bars and tobacco
strapped to u backs-seventy-fve
pounds in each haversack.
On our arrival there was a commo-
ton, quickly stopped by a sign from
the lieutenant. These boys had been
there seven days. They were out of
smokes and crazy for something
sweet. We passed along the trench
the mouth of our bag open, and not
once did 4 boy take more than his
allotment. Not a word was spoken
.audibly, but volumns came from
grateful eyes. An occasional tap, tap,
on the shoulder by a private was more
satisfying than would have been the
placement of the double bars or the
gold leaf in the same spot by the COM
manding general.
The trench was dry and as comfort
able as a trench may be. The bom-
bardment had stopped, and with the
exception Of an occasional zip of a
bullet just owe our heads, or the thud
of one that struck. there was no en-
envy fire. We went into an excava-
ton in the side of the trench with a
sergeant where we dumped what was
left in u two haversacks. The SER
geant told us there was a tense feel
ing among the boys of that company.
A few hours before Lieutenant A. w.
]. with a squad of men, had gone on
the daily round into a trench that led
into No Mans Land.
He was in advance of his men and
had just reached the farthest end of
the trench when he was shot through
the body by q half dozen boches who
had stolen into the place. Immedi-
ately the Germans threw a barrage be-
