The partridgeS IN this region are
getting friendly. says the Bridgton
News. One recently called on H. A.
Hall. at his residence on Highland
Road. Not content with walking up
on the piazza and asking to be taken
in. she strolled through the stable
and around the grounds. Mr.. and
Mrs. Hall watched Mrs. Partridge for
some time, but did not open the door,
so she strolled over to the home of
w. N. Staples and later retired into
the woods. AS cartridges are usually
very shy birds, Mr.. Hall is wonder
ing just why this one should have
beer so trusting. Some years ago a
deer called on him in something the
same way, but this is the first time a
partridge has come.

Dear Friend:-
 I received your letter of April 22d few days ago, and was very pleased indeed. I hadn't received any letters from the U. s. A. for two weeks when yours came. Letters from back home are always in great demand.
 1 enjoyed my stay in Paris very much I was there seven days. 1 left for the front the day before the big offensive started. Paris is surely a wonderful and most beautiful city. l visited all places of interest-chateau of Louis XIV, Napoleon's tomb, the Invalides, gardens, Arch de Triomphe, Champ -Elysies. the 1Bastille, etc. l also attended the opera Guilianme Tell Civilian TelD and Aida The opera house is magnificent, just grand. Fritz , bombed and shelled the city with his l long range gun every day 1 was there. | But it's hardly noticeable in a city i like Paris. When I saw that the Ger i man offensive had started I was anx- !, ious to return to my regiment. We l were stationed in that vicinity. It took me two days to return to my unit. The ] train I was on was bombed by Ger man planes early in the morning and l I had to walk six miles to the city 1 of -, and when I got there il i was being shelled and bombed heavily 1 finally reached the Second battalion i of this regiment and went straight to E company and inquired for Edw i Main: saw him there safe and we'll but I somewhat tired. he, said, for he hadn't l had any sleep for some time. didn't reach my detachment until the fol- 1 lowing day. You can just bet that was some glad boy after had located my regiment.
 You must have had hard time last l winter. I didn't know it was so cold as all that I was surprised when 1 saw the slip you sent me. The coldest day We had here was zero. one day only, in December. But it was awful damp.
 Ninety per cent of the boys in the service improve 50 per cent. both physically and morally. Of course you get hardened in the service, pl1y- sically, but not in your feelings. O1 course, you know a soldier is taught to kill, not for hatred against human kind, but to abolish the business oi 1 killing Any boy that has been at the front any length of time has a greater feeling and appreciation for his home and folks than ever before But after all life is just as you make it." Tn in very good health and feeling dandy We are having dandy weather hert now, nice and warm. Hope it keep! that way. Tow is everything in tht old town? Good old town, isn't it I'll have to leave you now, for taps will blow in ten minutes.

AS OUT OF DATE
 AS HORSE CARS
SAYS CORN RINGS, PLASTERS, RAZOR AND EATING SALVES
 ARE TABOO NOW.

Good things should be passed along It is now said that a few drops of a drug called freezone applied directly upon a tender, aching corn relieves the soreness and soon the entire corn, root and all, can be lifted out without pain
 For little cost a quarter of an ounce of freezone can be obtained from any drug store which is claimed to be suffi- cient to remove every hard or soft corn or callus from ones feet
 This is a drug recently announced from Cincinnati. It is gummy but dries the moment it is applied and simply shrivels up the corn without nfaming or even irritating the healthy tissue or skin.
 Cut this out and lay it on your wife's dresser.
