On May 70 the American Red Cross suspended an canteens for the cx- elusive benefit of officers and gave up participation in an officers clubs and hotels except the officers Hotel u Paris. which it will operate until Che end of June. and such clubs and hotels as thc officers themselves may wish Co operate until che present leases expire.
 "Iu Paris, aside from thc officers Hotel. thc American Red Croas now has seven hotels for enlisted men on leave and six cautccus for these men and for moving troops Opera tlous n Paris for enlisted men will probably bc continued os long as warranted by che volume of leaves and troop movements.

 But the bartender is gone. He may not be forgotten. but he is gone and it looks as though he is gone forever. He is a closed lnci- dent Never again will we sec him rcsplondcht in his white coat that looked as clean as a freshly laun- dcred snowflake. Never again will he serve the rummy from the com mon stock. the newspaper man from the private bottle or sprinkle pow dored sugar around the edge Of tho glass containing tho bankers cock tail. The staid citizen who. when walking with his wife and who tips his hat when passing an acquain- tancc. will not. when his wife asks "Who is your friend?" again be re- quircd to answer with lie such as "Oh, that fellow is hardware drum mor from Seattle"

 Ilonceforth the knowledge that the bartender possessed and was wont to diffusc for the cdirca'ion Of his hearers will be lost Co the world. for it will never again bc ac- cepted as it was when dinuscd from behind the bar. There he reigncd supreme, but as an ordinary citizen he will be in the class with the flower that is born 10 blush unseen and waste its sweetness on the desert air. Never a poet but always a phil osopher. the bartender has faded from our midst as silently as fades the morning dew from a pumpkin vine.

The stroller views with both trcp- ldation and regret the disappearance of the old-timo bartender who was wont to manifest lively interest in everything pertaining to his GUS toners their domestic affairs, bus mess transactions, crops, children and dogs Az he stood repleto in white coat and wiped glasses behind the bar after ringing up four bits for slx-bit sale, he had a conf dential manner and line of talk that ondeared him to business man and chair warmer alike. He was au- thority on prize ring history from Paddy Ryan and Dominick McCaf- ferty down 10 "the Nayger" and Jess Willard. He also had at the tip of his tongue tho batting average Of an big leagucrs from Pop Angon. Bill Lango and Slide Kelly down to the latest discovered bu8hers. He could also serve. in strictcst confi- dcnco, of course, the latest scandal for tho reason that he had it straight from Maude. and "Maudo is a per feet lady, drunk or sober"
 The bartender, besides being a workable fountain of information, was likewise the recipient of more condolences than any other man in town. The old soak would tell him over the end Of the bar how his wife had been to see a lawyer already and that he feared she would go again next morning. The Gemi-prosperous business man who accidentally en- compasscd about three too many, would tell him as he grippcd him in a half Nelson over the bar how That little piece of calico that | honorcd with my name is about the brightest little Jane in this mans burg"
 The love-sick youth who had been assisted or the porch nt tho toe Of the old mans William Douglas No. 9 and who had dropped in for con solation with toothpick and a cherry in it on the way home and, after the fourth interview, would conRde to the bartender that it stumped him to know how such an ill-natured old chunk of cheese could have such strawberry-and- cream daughter as Minnie-that the latter was all right. and that if he had ten dollars in cash they would olopc and tell the old man to go to hell. just like that. And the bar tender. while not offering to advance the desired ten, would say, "This one is on me"
 The bartender who succeeded and held down his job even though tho boss knew he was "lmocking down" on him. was man Of varied temper amcnts. He rcioiccd with the mirth- full. wcpt with those who mourned. was the court of last resort to "dc gang" who cnvicd him his position

How the -blooded, energetic, and
attractive man or woman is envled by
those who feel that it will always be
their unfortunate lot to be thin, pale
and weak-bodied!
And yet why continue to envy men
and women who possess vigorous,
healthy physical condition and an at
tractive, magnetic personality? Poor
health and lack of vitality are often
merely the result of impoverished
blood.
GUIDES Pepto- Mangan is for people
whose bodies suffer from lack of prop
er blood nourishment. Pepto-Mangan
enriches the blood and increases the
number Of healthy red blooded cells,
which are so necessary to carry the
proper nourishment, nervousness, and
strength to every part of the body.
Physicians introduced GUIDES Pep
to-Mangan to the public because they
knew that it contained the very pro
perties that are so sorely needed to
build up thin, watery blood. For your
convenience Pepto-Mangan is prepar-
ed in two forms, liquid and tablet
Both contain exactly the same medi-
cine value.
Insist on the genuine Pepto-Man-
