fallen, and IN cornissnd On d battalion.
They had driven the Germans from
the last house OF tho village. The de-
lay had saved the day. The reserves
had come pouring In. On the ridge be-
yond the enemy was marshallng for II
last counter-attack.
Mark looked about him. Lleutenants,
captains who should have commanded
companies, mingled with prlvntes and
ioncoms, were following, as II hypno-
died, this mIddle-aged private with the
ed cross on his arm. As Mark looked
his heart swelled with the conscious
ness and pride OF leadership. And. at
ala glance. roar went up that was
caught up from man TO man and sent
| echoing into the distance.
And Mark was swept away with un-
conquerable enthusiasm. II was his
day. the day OF which every soldier
dreams.
"Come along, boysi Break them
upr' he shouted, and ran forward.
With one resoundlng cheer the lines
swept after him. A ripple Of machine
gun fire caught them, but could not
hold them. Over the fallen they
pressed on. cries OF triumph upon their
lips. the faces. set above the cleaning
bnyonets. animated by a single pur-
pose. And now they were upon them.
Mark fought In the bloody swirl.
Blades thrust at him, bullets tore his
tattered uniform. Once he was down,
and he saw u giant rush at him with
dubbed rife. He raised his arm. he
tried to drive with his sword. iunged
and missed. Then fhe uplifted rife
fell harmlessly beside HIN. and the
giant fell forward, dead. over him, pin.
ming him to the ground, and covering
him with his blood. A bayonct thrust
had passed clean through his body.
And, looking uo bewildered. Mark
thought he saw Hartley's face look
into his own.
Next moment Mark was on his feet
again. and Hartley had vanished. But
already the last tussle was over. The
Germans broke and fed.
Mark stood still. gasping. The men
were crowdIng all about him. waving
their helmets on bayonet points, cheer
ing him, shaking his hand. Across the
field two mounted men were riding.
They. came up 10 the ridge, and one. n
white-haired old officer. leaped to the
ground and wrung Marks hand,
my thanks--our country's thanks TO
you y he cried. "What Is your nnmc?"
Mark looked and saw the Generals
insignia upon the officers shoulder
straps.
Weston" he answered.
And suddenly he remembered Flea
nor, and, ashamed and Inundated. and
yet strangely elevated. he began 10
push his way back through the crowd.
He turned Into the street OF the jail.
Dead bodies lay everywhere. and al
ready some OF the ambulance men were
succoring the wounded. Broken guns,
rifles, haversacks. all the parapher-
MALTA OF battle strewed the streets. The
debris Of the jail came into view. The
sun, dancing above II. Indicated, TO
Marks establishment. that hours had
passed, and that II was afternoon. Mark
felt suddenly sick. he trembled, and
with his last reserves OF strength be
staggered forward.
Then he saw Colonel Howard with
In the oritice in the wall. and Eleanor
beside him. holding q water
bottle to his lips. She turned. saw
him. and ran TO him. folded her arms
about his neck and pressed her lips to

Is Dollars.
Is Cents

When Swift & Company
paid, say,-13 dollars per hun
dredweight for live beef cattle
last year, the profit was only
Is cents! In other words, if we
had paid $13.13, we would have
made no profit.
Or, if we had received a
quarter of a cent per pound less
for dressed beef we would have
made no profit
1t is doubtful whether any
other business is run on so close
margin of profit.
This is bringing the producer
and the consumer pretty close
together which should be the
object of any industry turning
raw material into a useful form.
This remarkable showing is due to
enormous volume, perfected facilities
(packing plants strategically located,
branch houses, refrigerator cars, etc.,
and an army of men and women
chosen and trained to do their special
work.
This, and many other points of
interest, are found in the Swift &
Company Year Book for 1919, just
published which is brought out for the
public as well as for the $4,000 Swift
& Company shareholders.
The Year Book also represents the
packers side of the Federal Trade
Commission investigation, upon which
Congress is asked to base action
against the industry.
Many who have never heard the
packers side are sending for the Year
Book.
Would you like one? Merely mail
your name and address to the Chicago
office and the book will come to you.
