The coin Is valued by Mr.. Hibler.

CHAPTER XIX.
German Prison Camps.

A few days after l had been lashed
to the barbed wire fence some of the
German officers came to the barracks,
and one of them who spoke very good
English said: "All Of the neutrals who
were on unarmed ships step out"
Only few stepped out.
Then he called for all the neutrals,
and the Danes, Swedes, Norwegians,
Brazilians and Spaniards stepped out.
But when 1 did, he said, NO, not
Americans. Americans are not neu-
trail. America supplies our enemies
with food and ammunition" He raised
his fist, and l thought he was going to
hit me, but instead he gave me a
shove that caused me to fall and get
II little cut on the head. Then the
sentries pushed me over with the
British and the French.
After that they took the NorweCi-
ans, Swedes and Danes to separate
barracks, and gave them clothes and
beds and the same rations as the Ger
man soldiers. When l saw this I
made kick and said l was a neutral,
too, and ought to get the same treat
ment as the Scandinavians. They took
me to the officers again, kicked me
about and swore at me. and the only
answer I got was that America would
suffer for all she had done for the al
lies. Then I was sent back to the bar
racks again.
The next day at about one o'clock
they took Us from the barracks and
drilled US through the swamps. The
men began to fall one by one. some
crying or swearing. but most Of them
going along without a word. Those
who went down were smashed in the
head with rifle butts or belts.
Finally we arrived at little rail-
road station, and had to stand in the
snow for over an hour while the en-
gine ran up and down the tracks hook
ing on cars. When we finally got in
the cars we were frozen stiff. I could
hardly walk, and some of the boys
simply could not move without intense
pain.
They loaded twelve men into cach
compartment. and detailed q guard of

ed: "Nichts zu essen" But we did
not know what that meant, so we just
hung around there and waited. Then
they started shouting. "Zuruck! Zu-
ruck!" !" and drove US back to the bar
racks.
Later we heard the words "nichts
zu essen!" so often that we thought
probably they meant mo eats" We
had our reasons for thinking so. too.
Those words. and "zuruck" and
"'raus," were practically all we did
hear, except. Of course, various kinds
of schweinhunde.
1t was awful to see the men when
we got back to the barracks. Some Of
the boys from the Georgic. not much
over twelve years old, were almost
crazy, but even the older men were
crying. many Of them. 1t was nothing
but torture all the time. They opened
all the windows and doors in the bar
racks, and then we could not heat the
room with our bodies. When we start
ed to move around. to keep warm, they
fired few shots at us. I do not
know whether they hit anyone or not ;
we had got so that we did not pay any
attention to things like that. But 1t
stopped us. and we had to stand still.
The Huns thought we would take the
rifles from the sentries and use them,
too. s-.r, - ,. , : 40.

: We had stoves In the barracks, but
no coal or wood to burn. There were
many boxes piled up there. but they
belonged to the Germans. :, We would
have burned them If we could. but
the Germans, made US carry them
across the road. They weighed about
$50 pounds apiece, and we were so
weak that it was all two men could do
to bulge them. And we had to- carry
them they would not let us roll them.
We were so cold and hungry that even
that exercise did not warm as.
About 2:30 the whistle blew again
and the Huns picked ouS.a few men
and took them down the road. We
could not figure out why, but they
came back about three o'clock. all of
them with bread in their arms. They
were chewing away on 1t when they
had a chance. Whenever the Sentries
We're not looking they would bite at II
like fish going after a worm. Each
man carried FIVE loaves.
When they got in the barracks the
sentries made them put the bread
down on the floor. and then. with
their bayonets. the sentries cut each
loaf once down the center lengthwise
and four times across, which meant
ten men to loaf about the size of an

German Black List In Peru.

Publications in Peru do not believe
in soon forgetting the intrigue of Ger
many or letting the Hun go unpun-
ished. Newspapers there carry COM
plete list of merchants who showed
anything like friendly disposition to
Germany throughout the war. 1t is
known as the "Official Allied Black
List" The boycott OF these mer-
chants includes trade with any of the
employees Of the firms. The notice
at the top Of the list includes this
warning:
"Any transaction with an EN-

ordinary ten-cent loaf in this country
now. They gave each Of us a piece
little larger than Il safetymatch
box.
The bread was hard and dark, and
I really think they made it from trees.
1t had just exactly the same smell
that the dirt around trees has.
We filed past the Sentries single file
to get our ration Of this mud. and
there was no chance of getting in line
twice. for we had to keep on filing
until we were out in the road, and
stand there in the snow to eat it. We
could not go back in the barracks un-
til every man had been served.
Our meals were like this: A can Of
barley coffee in the morning; cabbage
soup. SO called. at noon: a tenth OF
loaf Of bread at p. m. That was
our menu day In and day out the
kniser's birthday. Lincoln's. May day,
or any other time.
This cabbage soup was n great idea.
We called it shadow soup. because the
boys claimed they made it by hanging
cabbage over n barrel Of water and
letting the shadow fall on the water.
We pretended, too. that If you found
any cabbage in it. you could take your
dish back for second helping. But
l never saw anybody get more than
one dishful. All 1t was, was just
spoiled water.
We tried to 60 to sleep that night,
but there were so many sentries

think a man Of US really slept. After
a while asked sentry If could go
outside for minute, but for some rea-
son he would not let me. had diff
ferent ideas about 1t, SO I stood
around near the door, and when he
turned his back out went and around
the corner of the barracks.
But one of the sentries there saw
me and blew his whistle. and guard
Of eight came up from somewhere and
grabbed me. tried to explain, but 1t
was no use, because every time said
word 1t meant another swat over
the ear, SO finally gave it up.
Then they drilled me across the
road to the officers quarters. There
were three officers there, and each Of
them asked me questions about all
kinds of things. but never once men
toned my running out Of the bar
racks. Then they gave the sentries
some commands, and four of the SEN
tries took me out and over to the
barbed wire fence. There they tied
me, face to the fence, arms over my
head. and hands and feet lashed to
the wire. and with a rope around my
waist, too. I thought. then, that my
hunch had come true, and that l
would be crucif1ed, like Murray and
Brown. --'
They posted sentry there in addi-
ton to. the regular guards. and every,
time he walked past me he would kick
me or spit on me. or do both. ~"

could not put up my hand to feel
where the prong had jabbed me, and
1t kept on bleeding and smarting. I
had on practically no clothing, you re-
member. The wounds in my thigh had
opened, and it was bitter cold and
windy. So you can picture to your
self how gay and carefree was.
When had been there for an hour
and half they united me from the
wire, and 1 keeled over on my back.
They kicked me until had to stand
up, but fell down again, and all the
kicking In Germany could not have
brought me to my feet. I was just all
in. So they blew their whistles and
the sentries in the barracks awakened
two of the boys. who came and carried
me in.
All the time the sentries were yell
ing. "Gott strafe EnglandE" and
"schweinhund !" until you would have
thought they were in battle. What
their idea was 1 do not know.

LOSS OF APPETITE

As a general rule there is nothing
serious about a loss OF appetite. and
II you skip q meal or only eat two
meals day for few days you will
soon have relish for your meals
when meal time comes. Bear in mind
that at least five hours should al.
ways elapse bewteen meals so as to
give the food ample time to dighest
and the stomach period of rest
before second meal is taken. Then
~ you eat no more than you crave
and take reasonable amount OF
outdoor exercise every day you will
not need to worry about your appe-
tote. When the loss Of appetite Is
caused by constipation as is often
the case. that should be corrected at
once. A dose of Chamberlain's Tab.
