HIS CAMOUFLAGE IN DANGER

W. B. Trltes, the noTeliat, la In ParU
with the American troops, and at a
dinner at Palllard's he told a camou
flage story.
"A young American officer*' ha aaid,
"came to Paris from a flying eamp on
a furlough and celebrated hie first ave
ulng la the metro poll* a Uttle too
gayly. His mother had an apartment
In the Avenue de Meaains, and ha
drove home at the evanluf'a end with
the firm determination that the good
lady should never know bow pickled
he was.
"He got in nolselesaly and began to
search the apartment for a place to
hide. He thought of hiding under a
bed, then of getting Into a wardrobe,
but finally he found twe portable tin
baths, and these gave him an excellent
Idea.
"He undressed silently, curled him
self up In one of the baths and drew
the other over him. Thea he chuckled
to think how well he had managed,
and went off to sleep.
"His mother. In the small hours, find
ing bis bed empty, made a search for
him. At last she came to the two su
perposed baths, peeped through a
crack, and said:
"'Are you there, dearf
"The crack widened a little, a wild
eye looked out, and a volca whJapered:
" 'Sh—sh! Go—hie—away, or you'll

One Fine Ham.
Louis E. I.altner, constabla In the
coroner's office, Is peeyed and he has
a right to be.
i Wlngle, as he Is knows about the
courthouse, likes to hunt. He also
likes rabbits as a food. Aa rabbits
. were selling for 35 cents apiece he
decided to go get some with the aid
of a dog and gun and thereby have the
fun of hunting as well as the pleasure
of eating and at the same time reduce
the cost of living.
So he borrowed a dog from oae of
' his friends a:id hiked for the country
, The result of his marksmanship for the
day was two rabblta, but Wlngle was
happy when he returned home with
70 ceuts' worth of game, a© be put the
dog In the basement for aafe keeping.
■ and went to bed perfectly contented.
In the morulng, when he went to get
the dog his Joy turned to gloom. The
> dog was there all right, but a per
fectly good ham. which was stared in
, the basement, was gone. That la. most
of it was gone, and what was left was
unfit for use as focal because what
the dog had not eaten he bad chewed
or dragged over the floor.
'•That ham stood me three dollars,"
1 Said Laitner. when telling about the
Incident, "and I had half a notion to

WAYS OF KEEPING YOUTHFUL
' Man Who Is Determined Not to Grow
Old Really Has Only to "Make
an Effort."
I fee It In my changln* hair,
I see It in my growing heir.
My growing thirst for early news.
It Is & fact. I am growing old.
I And so growing old is Just a case of
finding what one's looking for, observes
the Minneapolis Journal. A man de
cides that the time has come for hlin to
be old. and so Instead of bracing up,
Ignoring the symptoms and finding
some other explanation for the change j
In the color of his hair, he neglects his
1 dress, walks with a stoop, uses a cane, i
j stops taking exercise, eats too much,
1 Indulges In reminiscences, retires from j
! business, and In general acquires the
■ i foolish habit of growing old.
! He should remember that It is possl
| ble to keep a youthful spirit, an active
, mind, an Interest In current events and
1 a purpose to serve his fellows, and that
j he who does these things will always
be young.
{ The fact that women generally de
I cllne to contract the old-age habit and
that some men have also resisted the
! temptation to fall Into it would seem
1 to Indicate that If those who do yield
I to It would only take the advice of
j Dombey to his wife, and "make an ef
I fort," they would learn how foolish j
i and how unnecessary It Is to grow old.

Winter's Discipline.
Be who marvels at the beauty of th«
world In summer will find equal cause
for wonder find admiration In winter.
It Is true the pomp and pageantry are
swept away, but the essential elements
remain—the day anil the night, the
mountain and the valley, the elemen
tal play and succession, and the per*
petual presence of the Infinite sky. In
winter the stars seem to have rekin
dled their fires, the moon achieves a
fuller triumph, and the heavens wear
a look of more exalted simplicity.
Summer Is more wooing, . . . more
versatile and human, appeals to the
affections and the sentiments, and fos
ters Inquiry and the art Impulse. Win
ter Is of a more heroic cast, and ad
dresses the Intellect. The severe
studies and disciplines come easier In
winter. One Imposes larger tasks upon
himself. __

The efficiency of our khaki-clad eagle in France—help
ing to free the world of the German Vulture—depends
on our golden eagles at home. Men we have in plenty
raw materials in abundance, but money is needed to
furnish our men with food, to turn raw materials into
equipment. We need money for ships to get our men
and equipment into the fight.

Catarrh Cannot Be Cured
With LOCAL. APPLICATIONS, as they
cannot reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrh is a local disease, greatly In
fluenced by constitutional conditions, and
in order to cure it you must take an
Internal remedy. Hail's Catarrh Medi
cine is taken internally and acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system. Hall's Catarrh Medicine was
prescribed by one of the best physicians
in this country for years.' It is com
posed of some of the best tonics known,
combined with some of the beat blood
purifiers. The perfect combination of
the ingredients in Hall's Catarrh Medi
cine is what produces such wonderful
results in catarrhal conditions. Send for
