No humbug I Just Like a Woman. A young American soldier, who wa married Just before sailing, was so fired with patriotism thut he was cer tain ho would havo an opportunity to do something heroic before tho war catno to an end. He mentioned this In a letter to wifey, and told hor he hoped to bring her tho Croix do Guerre from France.

Out on Sixty-third Btroot, Chicago, Tony Hruno used to wrnp hot towels about men's faces nnd soliloquize about the benefits of a hair singe. Thnt wus four years ago, writes C. V. Jullnn In the Chicago Tribune. When Austrian hordes were bcntlng against a certain mountain pass in the Trcntlno on the holding of which depended the fate of an Italian battalion, there stood, all alone In the pass, working n sputtering Itnllan ma chine gun, Tony Hruno, Ittirber on Sixty-third street, Chicago. Tony wondered whether the Italian army was ever coming up to help him, and If It didn't well, Tony wondered who was going to buy macaroni and cheese for the four little llrunos at f28 West Twenty-eighth street. His Mind Relieved. Four hours later when Austrlun bod ies lay In heaps about Tony his mind was 'relieved. The Italian army ar rived., And pow he's on IiIb way home, f "Why, ydutro n regular Iloratlus," said some one on the pier, who had learned tho story of Tony and the mountain pass.

Izzy brushed past half a dozen 0 lawyers and marched up tho steps to the bench, lie was reaching out to touch the Judge's arm when Court Clerk Leary grabbed him.

Murders of clergymen constitute the latest feature of bol shevik terror In Itussia, says Prof. Peter Struvo. a distinguished Russian economist, who has escaped from Itus slu nnd arrived In England after hid ing from the bolsheviki for months In Moscow and after a long Journey on foot to reach safety In Finland. He was compelled to disguise him self to escape death at the hands of the adherents of Lcnlne and Trotzky. Professor Strove was representative from I'etrog.'ud in the second dumn, nnd a menibtr of the nssembly coiif voiced by Alexander F. Kerensky. J Ten Bishops Shot "Altogether ten bishops had been shot and many priests murdered nnd tho dean of Kaznn cathedral and his two sons were drowned in the Neva by the red' soldiers," said Professor Struve. "Near Kotlas, all the monks in ono monastery were shot to death. Professor Kartasheff, minister of roll glon In Kerensky's government, who has escaped Into Finland, says that the present persecution of the church In Petrogrnd Is only "ompnrnble with the persecution of the early Chris- j tlans. i "In Moscow all tho shootings take place at night, but In Petrogrnd the ' victims of the bolsheviki are shot In the afternoon In the courtyard of the ! headquarters of the executive connnls-1 slon and In order to drown the noise, ' It Is usual to start up tho engines of the motorcnr3 which are wultlng In the vicinity. "At the beginning of tho bolshevik movement I publicly expressed the opinion that not even a German would hold converse with n bolshevik. As a Itusslan constitutionalist it Is com pletely Inexplicable to mo how any al lied government can contemplate dis cussion of any sort. In any clrcum- I stances or at any place, with anyone who calls himself a bolshevik. Complete Tyranny, Those who imagine that there can i i( ,my pact between the forces of clv- lllzatlon and bolshevlsm have no con- motion of tho real state of affairs In Russia. Tho "lost moderate form of restoration of order and liberty In Itussia would make the tcclstence of bolshevlsm Impossible. "Holshovlsm is complete tyranny. now Its own liberty. "Now It Is your turn to give tho German people a Just peace In the peace terms which will clvu them lil- erty, to live Justly and peacefully with tne world at large. "Wo hope that you will reach vour home safely and tlnd everyone In good health. "I again request you not to part from Germany 'with lint red aualnst im and to Inlluenco your people to look upon Germany as it Is now, not as It has been Judged, perhaps Justly, up to thu present time.

'Pi TIME TO FEED YOUNG CHICKS Mashes Mixed With Milk Are of Con. sidcrable Value In Giving Young sters Good Start. (Prepared by the United States Depart ment of ARriculture.) Toting chicks tuny be fed nny tlmo after they nre thirty-six to forty-eight hours old whether they are with a hen or in n brooder. Some good feeds for the first feeding nro moistened hard boiled eggs, johnnycakc, stale bread, oatmeal or rolled oats, which may bo fed separately or In combination Mashes mixed with milk nro of con siderable value In giving the chicks n good start. The mixture should be ted In n crumbly mush and not in n sloppy condition. JohnnycKKo composed bf the following Ingredients in tho pro portion named Is a very good feed for yrtung chicks : Ono dozen Infertile eggs or ono pound of sifted beef scraps to ten pounds of cornmenl ; add enough milk to make a pasty mash and ono tnblespopnful of baking soda and bake until done. Dry bread crumbs mny be' mixed with hard-boiled eggs, making about one-fourtli of tho mixture eggs, or rolled oats may bo used In place of bread crumbs. It Is n good plan to give theso feeds about five times dally for the first week, then gradually substitute for one or two of these feeds n mlxturo of finely, cracked grains of equal .parts by weight of cracked wheat and finely cracked corn nnd plnhead oatmeal or hulled oats, to which about f per cent of cracked peas or broken rice nnd 2 per cent of charcoal or millet or rape seed may be added. A commercial chick feed may be substituted If de sired. This ration may be fed until the chicks are two weeks old, when they should be placed on grain nnd n dry or wet mnsh mixture. Young chickens should bo fed froui three to five times dally, but If care is given not to overfeed chicks will grow faster when fed live times per tiny. Young chicks should be fed not more than bnrely enough to satisfy heir appetites nnd to keep them ex- Young Chicks Just Out. erclsing except at the evening or last meal, when they should be given all they will eat. There Is danger In over- reeding, purticuinriy ir tne young chicks are confined and do not have access to free range, as too much feed under such conditions Is apt to cause leg weakness. GRIT NECESSARY FOR FOWLS Hopper Feeding Saves Labor and Fur nishes Desirable Supplementary Feed for Hens. Ground feeds are necessary for most efficient digestion In poultry. Hopper feeding saves labor and furnishes tho necessary supplementary feed nt all times. There is no danger of poultry overeating on ground feeds fed dry In a hopper. The University of Missouri college of agriculture Is recommend ing the hopper as u labor saver In the poultry yard. Limestone grit or oyster shell is also necessary 'for laying hens. A laying hen requires large quantities of shell- making material. Nearly all of this must como from tho grit nnd shell she ents. It Is poor economy not to keep a liberal supply accessible. One ex tra egg n year will pay tho bill. It returns the money Invested a hundred fold. Chickens raised on range can be pro duced much more economically than those kept closely confined around tho farm buildings. Not only, Is less feed required, but the danger from disease Is reduced. The edge of tho cornfield makes an Ideal poultry range. Chick ens grow best on plowed ground nnd the corn furnishes shnde, which Is es sential during the summer. Under such condition's, a pound of chicken can be produced from threo to four pounds nf grain. I POULTRY NOTES Skint milk Is good for tho chickens. Pumpkin Is of vnluo la tho cold weather poultry ration. Wheat, oats and corn nro good grains to feed tho laying hen. Ducks nro among tho most profit able of nil domesticated fowls. Parent turkeys should bo full grown and n'ature. If tho gobbler Is re lated to tho hens, get a new one. 1 11 X : : li A Feeling of Security You naturally feel secure when yon know that the medicine you are about to take is absolutely pure and contains no- harmful or hnbit producing drugs.
