in his own tongue, of course. long be
fore the German empire was formed,
and cites an experience of his own
to prove it.
MIR. Houston was member of
Troop G. Seventh cavalry. the regi.
ment commanded by the gallant Col.
George Custer, for eight years. On
der Captain Edgerly he went to the
scene of the Pine Ridge troubles. The
troops lined up TO disarm a band of
Indians that had given themselves up.
They included the chief, Big Foot. and
a large number of braves, as well as
women and children.
The captives were herded together
and soldiers formed hollow square
around them. Each Indian wore his
blanket draped over his shoulders,
and. with arms folded across the chest
in the customary Indian position,
maintained a stoical silence. 1t was
known that a number of the Indians
carried guns. but no treachery was
suspected.
Suddenly, apparently without a
given signal, one Indian opened fire
on the surprised troopers. Instantly
all of the other braves followed suit,
and even the squaws and older chill
dren joined in the attack upon the
soldiers.
Little Indian boys with sawed-off
shotguns fought until killed and the
battle was a bloody affair. 1t ended
when there were no more Indians, be.
cause the soldiers, angered at the
trickery that had been shown, gave
no quarter and the Indians asked for
none.
The following day the Seventh went
to DreXel Mission, where another bat
tie took place. After the Pine Ridge
trouble had been stamped out. the
regiment returned to it's station at
Fort Riley, where Mr.. Houston con-
tinued in service for a number of
years.

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you can not find
single trace of dandruff or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after few
weeks use, when you see new hair, fine
and downy at frst-yes-but really
new hair-growing all over the scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately dou-
bleS the beauty of your hair. No diff
ference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten cloth with DAN
derine and carefully draw it through
your hair. taking one small strand at
time. The effect IS amaZing-your hair
will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have
an appearance of abundance; an in
comparable lustre, softness and luxu-
rance.
Get a small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine for a few cents at any drug
store or toilet counter, and prove that
your hair is as pretty and soft as any
that it has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment-that's all-you
surely can have beautiful hair and lots
of it if you will just try little Dam

I guess if the truth-were known, we all
felt like whimpering.
Without another word, Jerry's broth
er got up, and, muttering to himself,
passed out of sight around the trav-
erse. AS he disappeared from view,
Sailor Bill exclaimed:

'Is it a fact, Curly" asked Happy,
"that this 'Aunted Jerry crawled out
there the way his brother says, and
that he was found dead without a
wound on him? If it's so, he must
have bad bloody poor heart and died
that way"
Curly answered: cit sure is so, be-
cause I got it from a leftenant in
'Aunted Jerrys section"
Jim was still whimpering. This got
on keys nerves; he gave him a sharp
cuff on the side of the head. This
was the first time a hand had been
raised against Jim since he had joined
US months back. He gave key a pite-
Gus look, and sticking his stump of a
tail between his legs disappeared from
the fire bay. Two days later key
made up for that slap, because at the
risk of his life. during an attack, he
raced into No Mans land under heavy
fire and brought in the bleeding body
Of Jim.
All afternoon we tried to be as
cheerful as possible, but our merri-

seemed forced and strained. Haunt
ed Jerry had sure put the 'kibosh"
on us.
That night Curly, Happy and were
on watch from ten to twelve, and, be-
lieve me, we never spent worse two
hours in our lives. There was not a
word spoken among US. I was think
ing of Haunted Jerry, and no doubt
the other two were doing likewise.
