the week. Now I send every thing clothing, bed clothes, table linen and household arti- cles to the laundry.
 "The laundry does all the most toilsome work of washing for me, leaving to me only the finishing of some of the smaller pieces. Everything is washed most beautifully. The flat pieces come back ironed more daintily than I could do them myself. The towels are de- livered as snowy and fluffy as can be, while the miscellan- eous pieces, like skirts and shirtwaists, are returned all nicely starched, ready for me to iron.
 Isn't it a sensible arrange ment? And the cost is so moderate"
 This is the experience of hun dreds of thrifty housewives who send us their weekly washing. Call us up and let us tell you more about this ideal service.

His fellows all declare that Stier-

his bravery under fire. When they

SpHACNUM MOSS HEALS WOUNDS

In Scotland and Ireland sphagnum
moss has been used for many CEN
turtles for the same purposes as to-
day, and 1t was used by army sur.
geons In the Napoleonic. the Franco
Prussian and the Russo-Japanese
wars.
In this country there were several
eral use, the chief of which was be-
cause our army surgeons, accustomed
to the use of absorbent cotton and
still having plenty Of this on hand,
hesitated about using a substitute.
Sphagnum moss Is far superior to cot.
ton In many ways, such as its better
quality, cheapness Of manufacture and
It's far superior absorbent qualities.
Sphagnum moss Is small low
plant, commonly pale green when wet
and almost white when dry. although
It may be any shade from bright red
and pink to russell green and dark
brown or almost black. The ,sphag-
mum most adaptable for surgical use
is called sphagnum papillosum, and its
absorbent quality Is due to peculiar
pore structure In Its leaves.
In general sphagnum grows In wet
places and attains its best develop,
ment In cool, humid regions, such as
Newfoundland, Nova Scotia and New
Brunswick Vancouver Island and
western Washington, although It is
known to grow as far south as New
Jersey. In boys the sphagnum grows
most luxuriantly, especially In the
boys where cranberries may be found.
ThiNsurgical moss is pulledNup bod
lily, the moisture squeezed out of II
and any coarse plants that may be
present removed, and then washed.
Next the moss is air dried and then
separated into two or more grades.
In making the surgical dressings Of
this material first a layer Of cheap
non-absorbent cotton the size Of the
dressing is laid down. Over this Is
spread layer Of sphngnum and over,
the sphagnum is laid a double layer
of very thin gauze paper. The whole
Is then enclosed in gauze outer

the thirsting men.
He carried munitions up to the
front line and rations, too. In short,
there was not q deed which would
help his fellow fighters, with the ex-
ception of firing gun, that Stier-
helm did not perform; and always
cheerfully and with superhuman
courage. So say his fellows one aud
oil.
Its this way" said Stierheim.
"There is no man that Is man who
would desert his fellows when they
are In trouble. So of course helped
them. I saw good many OF my
friends dropping around me, dead and
wounded. That made me feel pretty
bad. 1t didn't make me mad at the
fellows we were fighting. I regarded
II as simply q matter Of war. The
fellows In the other trenches couldn't
help being there any more than we
could. They were trying to kill cup
men Just as we were trying to kils
them. No, didn't feel any more re,

Other Heroic Deeds.
A sergeant of his company was shot
down in No Mans Land. Despite
shell and machine gun fire. Stierheim
walked out alone to where the SER
geant lay, stopped over him for mo-
ment and then returned.
Hes dead-there's no use." Stier-
helm reported. "But II you want me
to I'll go out again and bring him in"
Again, his companions found him
pulling strenuously at log half
buried in the trench. An ordinary
man Is exposed from the chest up
when he stands erect In trench, and,
Stierheim looms far above the ordi-
nary man.
"Hey!" shouted his friends, "get
away from there! You'll be shot!"
"No," he replied, "this log will make
peach of a support for the dug
out"
SO several of the boys helped him
pull the log out, and because Of
enemy machine gun fire 1t took them
more than two hours to carry the log
so yards.
"And believe me, boys, that was
some dugout he built" an admirer
clipped In.
Because Of his skill as carpenter
Stierheim was the official dugout build
er of the regiment.
All Sorts Of Helpful Service.
They tell many stories of Stler-
helms willingness to serve his fell

bound their wounds, buried the dead,
and always helped the wounded. He
would unconsciously carry food and
water for men in fearsome positions
where none but the most lion-hearted
would dare creep.

so busy didn't have time to find out
how I felt. There was no place that
was safe within two miles OF the
trenches, and there was no use OF
thinking any more Of danger up In
front than back in the billets--your
chances of getting hit were good in
any place."
Many times Stierheim could easily
have escaped, but he did not attempt
II because 1t would get his guard In
trouble. Often he would go through
crowds calling out the name OF the
man guarding him In order that they
could both go back to the guardhouse
together.
