BEL LGIAN BOY OF
 10 WITH MARINES

Paris, March -(Correspondenc
 of The Associated Press)-A young
 ster of 10 created a sensation in the
 reading room of the Knights of Co.,
 lumbus Club in Paris recently by ap-
 bearing before the assembled Yankee
 soldiers garbed in the uniform of an
 American marine, with two wound
 stripes and three service stripes on his
 sleeves
 More than a year ago some of the
 marines were stationed in a little
 French village when a little Belgian boy came to their camp. He was re- ceived with open arms, and when he told them the story of how his moth CT and father had passed away, they adopted him as the mascot of the regiment, Jean Moyeaux has been with the Marines every moment since that day when the little refugee, hun gry and lonesome reached the camp. During two agements the little Belgian boy was wounded, and one of his little legs is crippled. He walks with a limp, but he always hopes that he will sometime be able to walk as straight as his friend, the Cor poral. The Corporal adopted the younugster, and soon he was loved 1 by every member of the 18th Regi-
 ment. He Is a clever youngster and l in the past year has learned much of l the ways of the American.
 A Knights of Columbus secretary gave the little soldier some candy, and l piled the refugee with questions Me no Francais, me Belge,'' said the youngster. 'rMe like AmeFicaine
 SpOse Corporal say. me go to Ameri-
 can with Ia regiment Me no talk l beacoup AngIais. Me understand bea- l ! Belgian was garbed in the uniform of the Marines. On his arm he car
 ried a little rain coat, and he proudly 1 displayed the numerals wnich showed 1 that he was member of the gallant
 18th.
 One of the young men at the
 Knights of Columbus club asked him
 why he did not have sergeant s
 stripes. Corporal he make men one

 There were tears in the eyes of i many of the soldier boys who were i gathered at the Knights of Columbus l club. They had been through much, but this little figure with two wound i stripes and the warped limb gave i them just another incident of the 1 horrors of the German attacks in i France and Belgium.
 ] Little Jean Moyeaux will go to the i United States with his Corporal and i the Marines. The captain loves the little youngster. And every man in 1 the regiment would fight for the Bel 1 gian boy who has learned to love, 1 and who has learned to know the American soldier as he really is.

If You Need a Medicine

Have you ever stopped to reason why it is that so many products that are extensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon forgotten? The reason is plain-the article did not fulfil the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself. as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited, to those who are in need of il,
