wonder where on earth we got the
wood.
We got the same kind of food In the
hospital that was served in the other
barracks. and I would not have had
any more than / used to, except that
sometimes some OF the twenty-six pa
tents could not eat their share. and
then, of course, IL was mine. One day.
though. WI all had extra rations.
Two Russian doctors came to visit
us each day. and once they were fool
ish enough. or kind enough. to ask II
we had received our rations-we had
received them earlier than usual and
they were finished at the time. OF
course. / said no. so they ordered the
Russian In the kitchen to deliver
t~wenty-eight rations to US, which was
not quite three loaves OF bread. We
were that much ahead that day, but II
would not work when l tried the trick
again.
One day a German doctor came to
the hospital barracks. He would not
touch anything while he was there
not even open the door. All of the
patients had little cards attached to
their beds-charts Of their condition.
When the German wanted to see these
charts the Russian doctors had to hold
them for him.
l was having q great time at the
hospital. wrecking the barracks next
door each day for wood, along with
Kate, and getting a little more food
sometimes. and was always nice and
warm. i thought myself quite a pet.
Compared to what / had been up
against, Ii seemed like real comfort.
But the more food / got, the more I
wanted. And 1t was food that brought
me down, after all.
Across from US was a barracks In
which there were English officers, and
somehow Ii seemed to me that they
must have had a drag. Every once In
a while l saw what looked like vege-
tables and bags of something that was
a dead ringer for brown flour. So l
told Slim. or Kate, as / was calling him
by then, and with him ON guard. l
sneaked out.
After two or three false starts, | got
oyer our barbed wire and their barbed
wire, and In through a window.
There l saw carrotsi And graham

with Kate. and then started eating.
so as not to waste anything. 1t was
certainly some feast-the only thing
besides mud bread and barley coffee
and shadow" soup that / had to eat
In Germany. Then / started back to
the hospital. ! got over their barbed
wire all right, and Kate gave me the
go-ahead for our entanglements. but
just as l was going over them a sentry
nabbed me. At first / thought Kate
bad turned traitor, because we had
had a little argument a short time be-
fore.
But later ON / figured that he would
not have done a trick like that, and
besides. he knew / was bringing him
something to eat. So the sentry must
have sneaked up without Kate seeing
him. Who got the carrots and gra.
ham four that / was carrying | do not
know. The sentries booted me all the
way back to my old barracks.

HEALTH TALK Spanish Influenza or Grip
 BY DIR. LEE H. SMITH.

An old enemy is with us again. and whether we fight German or germ. we must put up good fight, and not be afraid. Inc influenza runs very brief course when the patient is careful, and if we keep the system in good condition and throw otf the poisons which tend to accumulate within our bodies, we can escape the dis ease. Remember these three C's-a clean mouth, clean skin, and clean bowels To carry of poisons from the system and keep the bowels loose daily doses of a plea5ant laxative should be taken. Such one is made of May-apple, leaves of aloe root of jalap, and called Dr. Pierce's Pleas ant Pellets. Hot lemonade should be used freely if attacked by cold, and the pa- tent should be put to bed after a hot mustard foot-bath.
 To prevent the attack of bronchitis or pneumonia and to control the pain, Anuric tablets should be obtained at the. irug store, and one given every two hours, with lemonade. The Anuric tablets. were first discovered by Dr. Pierce, and, as they flush the bladder and cleanse the, Kidneys, they carry away much of the poi sons and the uric acid.
 It IS important that broths, milk, but termllk, ice-cream and simple diet be given regularly to strengthen the system and in- crease the vital resistance. The fever is diminished by the use of the Anuric tab lets, but in addition, the forehead, arms and hands may be bathed with water ltepid) in which tablespoonful of sal tratus has been dissolved in quart. After n attack of grip or pneumonia to 'uild up and strengthen the system, obtain 1t the drug store good iron tonic, called Irontic" Tablets, or that well known lerbal tonic, Or. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.

To be possessed of a head of heavy. beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy, wavy and free from dandruff is merely a matter of using little Danderine.
 It is easy and inexpensive to have nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just get small bottle of Knowlton's Danderine now-it costs but few cents-all drug stores recommend it-apply little as directed and within ten minutes there will be an appearance of abundance, freshness, f1uffiness and an ineompara- ble gloss and lustre, and try as you will you cannot find trace of dan6ruff or falling hair; but your real surprise will be after about two weeks use, when you will see new hair-fine and doWny at first-yes-but really new hair-sprouting out all over your scalp -Danderine is, we believe, the only sure hair grower, destroyer of dan druff and cure for itchy scalp, and it never fails to stop falling hair at once.
 If you want to prove how pretty and soft your hair really is, moisten cloth with a little Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair-taking one small strand at time. Your hair will be soft, glossy and beautiful in just 9 few moments-a delightful surprise, awaits everyone who tries this. Adv.
