Infantry, and a number or months ago
was physically shattorod by sholl Are,
Is now In tho convalescent hospital in
London. Writing to a Brady friend
under dato of May 30th, ho Bays In
part:
I have boon moved over to this hos
pital for an. oporatlon on my thigh,
there was Bomo inotal In it and tho
wounds would not heal. Thoy woro
going to glvo Mo an injection In tho
splno but gavo mo other instead, and
thoy had a tlrao bringing mo too, I
am so weak They got two pieces of
lead tho slzo of bcansand soino bono
splinters and tho nurso sayB tho
wounds nro healing fine of which thoro
aro four cuts now. My dysentery Is
also T)Cttor, I now have tho sense of
taste and oat more than at any other
tlmo slncQ I havo been wounded. For
dinner every day I havo a nice pieco
of fresh fish, boiled (potatoes, gravy
and rice, also a custard pudding.
Tho doctor was. in today when I was
eating dinner and added two pints of
milk, a bottlo of stout and calvou foot
Jolly to my dlot shoot.
The Amorlcan Red Cross haVo been j
very gftod to mo bringing mo things to j
oat nnd tobacco. Tho lady that visits
this hospital Is a lady Indeed, they say
sho Is worth heaps of money and I
guess sho 1b by tho rings sho wears.
Tho last trip out she brought me a two
pound can of California asparagus, 3
cans of soup, 1 at chicken, 1 mutton,
and 1 gravy, a can of rusks, 1 Jar of
honor, 1 bottlo of calvos foot Jelly, a
package of bull durhani and three or
four Yunk magnzhios. Tho Canadian
Rod Cross- were also good about bring
ing mo food over tr tho other hospital
but havo given mo nothing since I have
boon Hero.-Just think smoking tobacco
is 9 poiico (18 cents) on oz. and
cigarettes 10 cents a, package. A Cana
dian doctor was yesterday chocking us
up arifl ho marked njo to be Invalided
to Canada when I am strong enough

about a doz,cn pillows. I am able to
shift about a little and of courso Use
Iioth arms, otherwise I am -so weak I

Tho Hiigiu' Hltortugo has encouraged
Lpulslnnii planters to broaden tho uso
of iniro nino Kyrup, which Is mude
from enno Juice, without taking out any
of its sugar. This Juice Is boiled to a
point Just below that required to crys
talllzo it Into sugar, nnd can be used
not only for griddle cakes nnd candy
ranking, but It is recommended by tho
planters, as a sweetening for cofteo
and ten. It Is practically sugar In a
liquid form, and on u basis of 8 cent
a pound retail for granulated sugar
will yield economies of 40 to CO per
cent, lit a prlcp of 4 to 6 cents n

EVER STAMP WHITE HORSES?
Peculiar" Chlldlch Idea Which May
Bring Back Old Daya to Some
of the Renders.
Tho car was a long tlmo-coming,
nnd a very small, dirty and Joyous girl
on ono roller sknto conllilod to nn In
terested bystnndor that there were
"two white horses coming."
Til stamp cm both," she added, and
irocooded to lick her thumb nnd Jam
t Into a soiled pink palm. Twlco over
t had to bo done, with eyes fixed upon
tho approncldng team.
"Why stamp them?" Inquired tho
stranger.
"Why, don't you know? When I
stamp a hundred I'll And something.
Found a penny last tlmo."
Just thou tho newspaper boy arrived
with his suck, and as ho took the
money from tho woodcji bench, a
penny rolled toward tho gutter. Tho
unkempt Uttlo figure swnyed on Its
slnglo skuto. A frown of dlnnpprovul
followed tho boy's Industrious search.
Whllo tho pennies were In tho bng on
tho bench, they were property and to
bo respected. But It was plain to any
one with oyes that n lost penny be
longed to the finder In tho code of
tho Uttlo girl.
When It was picked up and dropped
Into tho boy's pocket, sh turned to
tho sympathetic bystander. "Don't you
hate boys with freckles?" she asked
"Besides, I'd only stamped 'loveiu
Walt till I get 'nuther hundred."
