had an awful time. Now we can vouch
for the truth of this item, because it is
just as he told it, and he never was
known to prevaricate: AS soon as
struck Boston discovered it was one of
those meatless, wheatless and eatless

coffee with a small package resembling o

told me it was against the law to serve

PLAYING OF QUOITS
IS NOW PROHIBITED
General Pershing Has Put Ban
on Horseshoe Game.
Huskies Have Not Hesitated to Back
Horses Into Quiet Corner and Rip
Shoes Off Innocent Animals
May Use Mule Shoes.

The American army in France, 1t Is
reported, has been embarrassed at va
riOus times by the sudden breaking
down of horses engaged in the trans
rCrt service. Investigation showed
that the horses were unshod. their
s,eel shoes having been removed mys-
tcriously. Further investigation
showed that the shoes had been TAX
Ell off the animals by the doughboys
in order to pitch quoits, nothing being
so good for the purpose as horse
stOe.
Quoits always has been a great
American game. If it wasn't for
qroits and going to the "deepo" to see
thu 2:36 come In, life would not be so
fascinating for prominent citizens Of
Tany bucoIic burgs.
Over in France time hangs bit
heavily around the camps occasionally,
md there has been a great revival OF
''pitchin'." The more the game has
spread the more demand there has
been for horseshoes. Now, there is
ore thing you can say for the Ameri-
can doughboy. When he wants any
ming he goes and gets it, whether it
be Hun or horseshoe. Various
thousands Of huskies, needing horse
shoes, have backed transport horses,
cavalry horses, all kinds of horses into
corner and with little more than a
whoa, boy" of preparation, have
ripped the shoes off the innocent ami
mails and then proceeded to get into
the game.
Mr.. John J. Pershing is said to be
What is called "peeved." He has is
sued orders prohibiting the playing of
quoits with horseshoes, on pain of 80
days in the guardhouse for the first
oefense and three months imprison-
nent for the second.
If the doughboys wish to pitch
quoits, he says he has no objection,
Tut they must lay off the use of horse
shoes. He gives full permission to
them to take all the mule shoes they
desire, that is, If they take them off
the hind or southern extremities of the
gentle creatures.
L. looks as If it will be a closed sea-
son for quoits in France so long as the
war lasts if Pershing persists in look
ing at the great American game Of
'pitch" this way.
Whoa, Maud From the Commerce
and Finance.

Watch chains Disappear.

A London (England) West end jew.
eler says that two things seem to be
passing out of fashion owing to the
war-watch chains and cuff links.
Both these articles were on the
wane before the war, but wrist
watches, being essential for officers,
brought them quickly to the fore, and
civilians have been rushing to buy
them, in many Instances selling their
watches and chains to buy the handler
time piece.
So with links. The soft double cuff
which was such nuisance to get them
into, began their downfall and then
khaki shirts made to button at the
wrist completed it. Now one sees even
the best dressed men with shirt cuffs
buttoned at the wrist, and the links
are put away in the drawer with the
"has beens."
