KEEPS THEM HAPPY
Red Cross Worker Tells Fortunes
for Boys.
Relieves the Monotony for Wounded
Yankee Soldiers in the
Hospitals.
By GERTRUDE ORR.
"Ton will receive a letter In a few
days which will brins you good news
. . . Cm! Yes, and you are going
to receive a present, from a lady—
blonde, whom you are going to meet."
"Trust Hefty, there, to meet the
blondes," drawled a lanky Southerner,
and the group of Interested soldiers
clustered about the fortune teller
shouted in chorus. "Oh, oul! He's
there with the blondes!"
Hefty looked embarrassed, but
pleased.
"Tell me some more!" he urged, and
the fortune teller, conning the cards,
rend for the wounded soldier a coming
day of good luck when muddy trenches,
shivering nights under bombardment
and aching shrapnel wounds would be
forgotten except as a hale of hard
work well done to crown the days of
peace with content.
The gipsy. In her scarlet kerchief,
has always plied her trade profitably.
An American Red Cross worker, In a
Paris hospital, has discovered that the
scarlet kerchief is not a necessary
requisite for drawing a clientele. She
began telling fortunes one afternoon
Just to while away an hour for a boy
who had begun to lose interest in get
ting well. He was restless and weary.
For four months he had been lying In
the same bed; other patients had come
and gone, until he began to feel as if
he "had just grown" In that hospital
ward. •
"You're going to have an Interesting
adventure tomorrow," predicted the
Red Cross lady, and the following day
a pal with whom Hefty had trained In
the States and whom he hadn't seen
for six months, was carried into the
ward and placed In the bed beside him.
"She's a wiz," announced Hefty to
the ward, and the Red Cross lady
found herself swamped with demands
for seances. She sees only happiness
and good fortune ahead and the con
valescents, with a new interest in life,
find the days go less slowly when
something good awaits thein just
around the corner.
They knojv it's good luck because
"The lied Cross lady says so—she saw
It in the cards."
PLANE PARTS MAKE MOWERS
Fort Worth, Tex.—There Is a les
son for the salvage corps in the op
eration of a whole fleet of motor
propelled machines with which the
grass on the square mile of lawn at
Evermau aviation field is cut. And
aviation mechanics nre complaining
that they can't lay down a nut or bolt
or a spare airplane part without it
disappearing. The connection be
tween the two is the secret of Sergt.
Fairfax Williams and Corporal
William McFariand, who are the con
structors of the "Everman scouts,"
as the motor mowers are known.
Sergt. Williams designed the ma
chines and Corporal McFariand con
structed them from the discarded ma
chinery, disabled motors and spare
parts that accumulated from the air
planes.
Birth of Standard Time.
It was 36 years ago that standard
time was born In the United States.
Before this date travelers from Bos
ton and Washington needed to change
their watches five times to keep up
to date. There were over half a hun
dred standards used In the United
8tates and Canada, between the At
lantic and the Pacific. At noon on
November 18, 1888, there was a uni
versal resetting of clocks In all parts
of the United States and CanwTa, and
Uie four great time rones Into which
{fee American contlneift Is divided
came Into existence.
Not Quite as Expected.

WOMAN'S STATEMENT
WILL HELP SKAGWAY
"I hated cooking because whatev
er I ate gave me sour stomach and
a bloated fooling. I drank hot
water and olive oil by the gallon.
Nothing helped until I tried simple
buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc., as
mixed in Adier-i-ka." Because it
flushes the ENTIRE! bowel tract
comoletely Adler-i-ka relieves ANY
CASE sour stomach, gas or consti
pation and prevents appendicitis.
The INSTANT action is surprising.
