PRISONERS OF HUNS
 FED WOODEN BREAD
Capt. Mott Tells of Hardships And Narrowing Conditions
 of Prisoners

Days spent hiding in sewers and bushes; nights Of long flights across a well-guarded and hostile country; swimming rivers and crawling past sentries: a tense situation for every hour of the six days journey of 100 miles from prison to the frontier. is the story told here by Capt, John FL dred Mott. the first Australian officer to escape from Germany. who has reached London
 T was hit in five places when the Huns caught me in April he said, and in the big hospitals they treated me fairly well. The food was good, but not too plentiful. T. was when We got to the prison later al Stroken that the hardships began. The bread there was terrible stuffcommon rye dough mixed with wood pulp One of our fellows got a splinter in his finger handling it, and you could always see the grains of wood in the crust A six-pound ration loaf had 10 last two officers for a week. The parcels from home were the only things that saved Us. The meat was horse from the war zone The fish was sharks tail
 Three Broke Away.
 'I was scheming from the moment I was taken to get away. Three of us broke away when the chacne came, but I was the only one to get thru. The first was taken getting thru the compound fence. and I lost the sec ond when swimming canal after We had gone about fifty miles.
 "The common people and common soldiers are terribly sick of everything connected with the war and are half starved. We could see that when We were taken out for exercise. speak few words of German and the farm CTS wives and daughters seemed to be rather friendly. The war is no good to you and no good to us,' they used 10 repeat. Why can't we all be friends?'
 Only a few were insulting. We've got you all right (meaning England) said one interpreter 10 me in hospital.

SEES U-B0ATS SUNK
 BY BOMBS IN FIGHT

A vivid description of battles at sea between United States transports, iestroyers and sea-planas on one side and a fotnla ot German submarines on the other. is given in a belated let ter received b. relatives in Berkeley from a recen, graduate of the Univer- sity Of California. who is member Of one Of the university ambulance un- its which went to France during the late summer months.
 The letter follows. in part:
 After being out from the United States for-days we were joined by a convoy Later we sighted a fleet Of steamers that told us Of submarines very close and that they had been at lacked early that morning. So we were on the watch. Al 12:15 (noonl .he crew was ordered 10 the guns.
 I went below to mess. and after. ward started to shave. but before ! finished the latter the whistle blew five times. which meant that ( sut had been sigted and that every one was ordered 10 go on deck.
 This NC all did and when we got on deck there we saw the steamers circling and turning and destrorers running about like mad. was or 5he upper deck just ia front of the bridge where I could see everything The deStroyers again sighted the sub and made for it, one Of them dropping depth bomb. where il saw rhe per iscope.

 There was no excitement that day

 We sure made haste 10 the deck. for We knew what it meant. Before We arrived on deck our captain had turned our boat at a right angle for he saw what was coming headed for Us : torpedo.

At this time of the year people feel uook fired. listless, their blood is thin, they have lived indoors and perhaps aynended all their mental and bodily energy and they want to know how to renpw their energy and stamina, over come headaches and backaches, have clear eyes, smooth, ruddy skin, and fool the exhilaration of real good health Hngling thru their body. Good, pure, r,cb red blood is the best insurance oooinst ills of all kinds. Almost all diseases come from impure and impoy- erished blood.

WILL WAIT UNTIL AMERICANS ARE A COMPLETE, POWERFUL
 SELF-SuPPoRTlNG ARMY.
ALLIES STRATEGY EXPLAINED
German Commander, Seeing How Nearly He Is Delivering Himself to Allied Reserve, Has Been Con-
 pelIed To Call a Halt.

Ottawa.-So confident is the enten. te of it's ability to withstand any drive the Germans can launch that it has been decided not to use the American army until it become a complete and powerful force, according to a cable summary of operations on the Vest ern front, received here from the War Committee of the British cabinet.
 ''The position now is,' said the summary" that the Germans, deter mined to concentrate every available unit on one enormous offensive, are draining their country dry to force a decision before it is too late, while the entente are so confident that if they were given the choice of a small i'm mediate American army for defense or waiting till they are reinforced by complete powerful, selfsupporting American army, they have chosen the latter.
 ITO the sledge-hammer uses of masses of men by the enemy the al- lies are opposing the strategy of meet ing the blow with the smallest force capable of standing up to the shock, while keeping the strongest reserve possible. Troops in the wings are permitted to give ground within linn its whenever the enemy has been made to pay a greater price than the ground Is worth, the whole aim being to reduce the enemy to such a state of exhaustion that our reserve, at the right moment, can restore the situa- tion."
 The German commander, seeing how nearly he is delivering himself to the allied reserve, has been compelled to accept temporary failure and call halt His position is tactically expos ed in two dangerous salients on wa ter-logged ground. His countrymen are dangerously dissatisfied at the immense pice paid for his failure to terminate their sufferings. His allies are on the verge of quarreling and daily exhibit their growing dislike and distrust of the taskmaster who robs them of their lives and food.
 His reserves have nearly reached complete exhaustion. Those of the Franco-Bitish are still in being, while the American preparations de- velop. The time draws closer when defeat is inevitable. Therefore. he must renew the offensive. His prepa- rations proceed feverishly, but it takes months properly to organize such an offensive. He must be satisfied with what he can do in weeks. We may, therefore, expect a renewed, furious onslaught before long. The enemy is so committed to his strategical plans that We may await his main blow on the Arras-A -Amiens front while neces- sity compels him to improve his posi- tion in the Lys sector.

REALLY SEEMED ONLY WAY
Smiths Idea Was Bright Enough if the Horse Would Only Do His
 Part In the Game.

John Smith bought a horse. The first Sunday after the purchase he and his bosom pal harnessed the horse to trap and went into the country on a fishing trip. At the shore of the lake they unharneSsed the horse and let 1t loose while they fished.
 Presently the sun began to go down and Smith and pal decided to get ready for the return journey. They caught the horse. and Smith began to harness 1t. But here they met n difficulty. The horse wouldn't open its mouth for the bit
 They tried every means they could think of, but still the stubborn animal stood with closed mouth, plaeidly watching them.
 At last Smith sat on the ground and began to tell jokes-horrible, moth eaten jokes, that Adam would have thought chestnuts.
