A MAINE SOLDIER PHOTOGRAPHS
HIS OWN GRAVE.

MILFORD G. Cakes of Patten, who mas
returned to his home after remarkable
record of service in the war as member
of Canadian artillery regiment, had the
unique experience, near Cambria of
viewing his own grave, or that which
was so designated, with his name in
scribed on rude slab over the last rest
ing place.
He took snap shot of his grave as
souvenir. He was shot to pieces several
times and passed through experiences of
the most narrowing and hazardous nature.
but returns home without apparent dis
tigurement owing to the remarkable sur
glcal operations performed upon him in
the British army hospitals. In one bat
tie he was desperately wounded, lost his
Identification tag and was hustled to
hospital more nearly dead than alive.
His Jaws were shot away, making it i'm
possible for him to communicate his iden-
tlty, and as he was missing from his
company his death was finally reported
Some soldier was buried under his name.
wonderful surgical operation gave
him new jaw bones. his tongue was sewed
up and other disfigurements remedied
and today one has to examine his face
carefully to find the scar.
When Cakes enlisted in 1914 he was II
years of age, but his discharge papers
give his age as Is years, showing sur
prsing flight of time. THIS is, however,
explained on learning that he was 50
anxious to enlist in the service of the
Allies that he raised his age to gain adj
mission to the ranks. He has been IN
many of the greatest campaigns Of the
war and has more to relate about the
war than he can possibly communicate to
others in a lifetime. He has been cited
for bravery and has received a medal OF
honor.

R.R. No. 1, Lorne, Ont.
For over three years, 1 was
confined to bed with Rheumatism.
During that time, I had treatment
from a number of doctors, and tried
nearly everything l saw advertised to
cure rheumatism, without receiving
any benefit. Finally, I decided to
try 'Fruit-a- tives' for Fruit Live,-

boy l noticed an improvement; the
pail was not so severe, and the
swelling started to go down.
I continued taking this fruit me-

do light chores about the place.

THE SUNSET GATES.

Tonight, as sat at my window,
While the west was all agleam
With that strange and wonderful splendor
That is fleeting as a dream,
| thought that the hands of angels
Had flung Heavens gateways wide
And caught some glimpse of the glory
From the hills on the other side
Is it not comforting fancy,
This sunset thought of mine,
That always the gates of Heaven
Swing open at days decline
That those whose work is all ended
From our earthly woes and ills
May pass to the peace and gladness
Then crown the beautiful hills?
Perhaps, while sat there dreaming
OF the gateway in the west,
Some weary ones went homeward
TO long and endless rest
Went in through the sunset gateway
TO the city paved with gold,
To dwell in the hills of Heaven
And be no longer old!
When for me the sunset gateway
Shall at days decline uncloSe
And enter through its portals
10 long and sweet repose,
| know that | shall remember,
In that land so fair and far,
My strange and beauteous fancy
OF the sunset gates aiar.

Hog Prices Pass $50.

CHICAGO, April 5. Hog prices has
passed the $40 mark upward bound when
they were quoted at $40 10 per hundred
at the stock yards. The highest war
time price was SCI last fall During the
winter prices dropped slightly under SIS,
but have been advancing since the gov
eminent minimum price guarantee was
taken off nearly month ago. At the
United States bureau of markets this
recent advance was ascribed to heavy de-
mand, coupled with the fact that the
winter run of hogs was largely shipped
out, leaving the supply comparatively
light until the new run begins in Nav OF

Leather Supersedes Paint for Auto-Bod,
Finish.

A new fashion in automobiles has ap-
peared in the West, leather being used as
a finish for the bodies, according to the
April Popular Mechanics Magazine. Both
Spanish and patent leather are used, even
the shock absorbers and tenders being
covered in some instances. Wiping off
with sponge is all the attention needed
to keep it in good condition.

Institute to be Later

The Stevens County Teachers In
stitute will not be held the same
time as the stock show this year as
it was in 1918. Supt. w. o.
Cummings states that the institute
will not be held until some time in
November. That it is better for
Colville to entertain the teachers and
the stockmen at different times is
the opinion expressed by many, the
reason being that each body of WIS.,
itors is entitled to all the considera-
ton possible and that when both are
meeting here at the same time the
best accommodation can not be eX-
tended.
"When both teachers and stockmen
are here" said prominent citizen,
it is not only difficult to provide
suitable accommodations For both,
but it is also impossible TO entertain
them as they should be entertained
when guests of the city. We should
try to make the teachers institute
and the livestock show two big
events of tho year."
