With 0aFriend.
MAN IS HAPPY AT LAST
For Score Of Years He Wandered
Over Country Locking for Children
From Whom He Parted When
Wife Died.

Chicago-John Corcoran is the
happiest man in the United States.
He has found his folks. For % years
he has wandered over the United
States and Canada looking for his
children, from whom he parted when
their mother died and they were little.
Now he has met them again and they
were glad to see him. He found them
grown to be fine young people, such
as any father would be proud of, and
John is all smiles.
1t was this way:
Twenty-Five years ago John Corco-
ran, then a. young man, packed his
travelling bag and shook from his feet
the dust of Dunnville, Ont, where ne
had been happy. He could no longer
be happy there. Dunnville had become
hateful to him because in Dunnville
his young wife had died, and with
her gone life meant little to him.
Told Favorite Child Was Dead.
The children, Ella Loretta. tod
dler of 2; Mary, aged 6. and John
Frederick, 4, were to be cared for by
Mr.. Corcoran's stepsister, with whom
he had some legal difficulties over the
settlement of his fathers will. Ac-
.ording to his story, after he had
been away some months this stepsis-
ter died and when he received the
news a friend told him his youngest
daughter had also died.
II don't mind telling you she was
my favorite," he said, "and when ]
heard she was dead 1t kind of upset
me. lost track of the others then,
although I knew that they were being
cared for up In Canada somewhere by

The War Department did its best to kill off
John Joseph Smith, and if it hadn't been that
his wife developed a most amazing skepticsm
and a belief that John Joseph was absolutely
unkillable by German the department might
have succeeded in working havoc in his domes-
tic relationship.
Before the war John Joseph Smith was

shops and lived with his wife i'm Jersey City.
When the war started he became Private

"Shucksw said Mrs. Smith John Joseph
Smith, of Company A, Sixth Engineers. and
went to France. He was gassed and wounded
in the leg at the battle of Chateau Thierry,
and few days later Mrs. Smith received a
telegram from the War Department that her
husband had been killed.
So she didn't put on mourning or anything
and in time she heard from Johns command
ing officer that he was all right. Then John
Joseph got mixed up in the Argonne fighting
and the War Department statisticians killed
him again. But Mrs Smith merely spent three
cents for stamp and heard from her hus-
bands commanding officer that John Joseph
was still all right.
The War Department let Private Smith live
again until late in January, when its statis-
teal department notified Mrs. Smith that her
husband was dead once more-this time of
disease in a hospital. Mrs Smith didn't even
get out John Josephs insurance papers, but
went bithely about her work-and two days

Seldom has victorious army come to 40
miserable an end as that Of the 10000 Ger
mans commanded by Field Marshal Won Mack
ensen, who were driven out Of Rumania after
the signing of the srmistice.
On their way home through Hungary the
redoubtabe divisions which had accompanied
Won Mackensen in triumphal march through
Pennsylvania and Rumania lost, sold or were
robbed virtually of all their belongings One
division, the seth, which had fought victorl-
ously in Poland and Lithuania escaped into

souvenir hunters, For instance, they cannot
understand why the husky doughboys want
women's paper corsets, substitutes for shoes
manufactured with wooden soles and cloth or
paper uppers, paper tablecloths, paper bed
sheets and the hundred and one substitutes
which the shops have on sale. One doughboy
upset the routine of one of the big stores by
trying to buy suit of womens paper under
wear With a half dozen words of German
and wealth appropriate gestures he vainly
tried to put over the idea. The whole staff
of the store was gathered to watch his antics
when German-speaking soldier entered and
came to his aid The amazement of the crowd
was undisguised but he got the underwear.
Another soldier left a trail of wonder1nent
when he entered a millinery store and came
away with one of the women's hats that had
been displayed in the window. He explained
he wanted to send it TO his sister.
Despite their justification at the needs
of the American doughboy, the shopkeepers
are rapidly adapting themselves to the new
order of things, and proving that the trade
follows the mark and the pfenning, regardless
the color of the flag under which it comes.
