Heroic Red Cross Doctors,

Of their hospital had been evacuated
the preceding night. The French sur

The Germans were within half dozen
kilometers and advancing. Heavy ar
tillery, set in the hospital grounds,
made terrific din. But the American
ambulance sections kept on coming to
Annel Chateau. They did not know
where else to go. Two Red Cross
doctors, Major Tarnowsy and Major
Morehead, stayed on in the deserted
chateau. Two canteen women volunteer

kept on operating, the canteen women

night and second day the two doc
tors operated. The crisis passed. The

tine was resumed.

suffered from the young soldiers in
evitable fear Of fear.
So he resigned himself to his situa-
ton. He emptied his water bottle and,
gripping the end Of his gauze roll with
his teeth, managed to bandage his
wound sufficiently to stop the bleed
ing. The languor, however, was in
creasng. Sometimes he would doze
for few moments, awaking with a
start, to wonder where he was, and
what had happened. The air was very
still. The shouts had long since died
away, the rifle firing was a distant
cracking; the tremulous staccato tap
ping of the machine guns was like the
roll of drums far away.
Wallace must have slept for pro-

He rubbed his eyes, expecting her to

him in English.

"I'm Eleanor" she answered, "and

She pointed with grimy little hand
toward the interior of the shack, and
Wallace, struggling to his feet with
great effort, made his way inside.
1t was almost dark in the hut, and
Wallace could only make out with diff
ficulty the form of a man who lay, face
downward, upon the ground near the
wall. Presently, however, as his eyes
became more accustomed to the OBJ
security, he saw the bullet wound in
the back Of the head.
He looked up at the child, who stood
by, unconcerned. go away, Eleanor"

The child, too young to know any

grimy hands. Her heck snuggled into
the hollow of his arM. The lieutenant
was curiously touched by this uncon-
scious confidence.
He issued from his ordeal Of pain at
last, when the bearers halted in front
Of the line of tents that served for
field hospital. Stretchers by the dozen
were piled about the ground, and more
were arriving constantly. Wounded
men, guided by tn" sound, came
limping in on the last lap Of their
painful journeys. Others, who had ar
rived but had not yet been attended
to, sat or lay in front of the tents. Or
derlieS were scurrying to and fro. Ma
jor Howard caught one of the regi-
mental surgeons, who looked Mark
over quickly and then picked the child
out of the stretcher.
Hello! Who's thiS?' he asked.
"Friend of his" said the major, in
dicating Mark.
"She doesn't look like Cuban young
lady," said the doctor, as he cut away
the sleeve Oh the Iunlc.
"Her fathers dead. Hit by shell
on his way from Santiago. I think he
was an American" said Mark.
"Give her to me. 1 never had one"
said the doctor, suddenly injecting a
hypodermic into Marks arm.
"Not after that" said Mark, wine
ing. Besides, I'm thinking of adopt
ing her myself"
And he wondered what had made
him say that when the thought had
hardly reached his own conscious
ness.
"See here, young man! Let me look
at that arm of yours before you talk
that way. Hum! You'll be running
round in a couple of weeks, as we'll as
ever"
''Thank heaven for that! /" calculated
Mark fervently. "Then I'll be in at
the DEATH"
II doubt it. / won't pass you fer
duty for six months to come" said the
doctor, grinning. Then, seeing Marks
detected look, he added, more seri-
Ously:
"You may thank the modern high
power bullet that you are going to keep
your arm, my boy. It's drilled nice
little pencil-hole clean through the
joint, instead of SCATTERING it, and
that's got to be filled in with new
growth. Even 1 can't grow bones in
q week. I wish / could. Ten years
ago your arm would have had to come
off. There's nothing more can do for
you, my son." he added, as he smeared
some sticky stuff over the wound and
began adjusting q bandage, Except tie
you up and put you In the hospital to-
night, and send you down to the base
in the morning."
1.-THE devil you will! I guess I'm
we'll enough to stay on the job as
am"
"Here, I haven't any more time to
waste on you'll" said the doctor.
''Pounce will make you a sling and
you'll go into that tent and stay there.
or I'll cashier you. You won't be feel
ing so spry tomorrow morning. Get
out I"
He strobe away, leaving Mark look
ing into the grinning black face of
Johnson.
After the sling had been adjusted
he discovered that the sense of we'll
being, due to the hypodermic, was al
