'XJeueral," he said, "1 did uoi come here ?m ? tourist ; 1 ?iave only one purpose, and that Is to com e Into di rect personal contact with the private soldier. I with to see hint us he faces the euemy." 4 "In this sector," was the reply, "it la easy to do that. At post 8 there are only four rnetera between the potlu and his adversary." "Very we'd," said Clemeucean. "I wish to go to post 8." Complete silence reigned In the tranches where the soldiers stood, gun In hand, ready to go "over the top," Their faces were tired and deeply lined ; in them were the tracea of ^aufferlng and of augfer. These men asked no favors, hut thoy forgave nothing. In their eyes shone a de termined resolution to win, and then to punish. When the party reached the covered passage leading to post 8, the guide told'M. Olemenceau that for the remaining. distance he Would have to crawl upon his stomach, and In that fashion the premier advanced until he met a sentry. There for an Instant he forgot that he waa not in the tribune of the senate and, speak* lng loudly, aald: "Well, q#y friend, what H A hard slap cut the sentence short, hissed the sentry. ,"Can*t ^V^'neiir that Boche coughing ?" The soldier never doubted thut hia blow had saved the man who was destined to lead France to victory. He had treated M. Olemenceau like a comrade. The premier had been near Indeed to the private soldier; he had come into direct personal contact with him. H*s desire was realized. ? Youth's Companion. CAN WIN DESPITE HANDICAP Wounded Soldiers Not "Out" In ths Battle of Life and Do Not Ask , to Be Coddled. "I have found that you do not need hands and feet, but you do need cour age and character. You must play the game like a thoroughbred," said,, Michael Dowllng at the International conference on reconstruction. "You fellows know how it is in a handicap race. A handicap Is put on the horse that has proved himself, so that he may not beat the others too easily. But the horse wltli the handi cap Is the one to bet on. fTou fellows are handicapped, but we know you can win the fight. You have been handicapped by the Hun, who could not win the fight. For most of you It will prove to be God's greatest blessing, for few men begin to think until they find themselves up against a stone wall. ''And you other folks ? don't treat these boys like babies ! Treat them like what they have proved them selves to be ? men. Don't spoon-feed 4hem. Don't coddle them. They would rather get their own faces down into the blueberry pie and eat It for themselves." ' The United States Fish Crop. The totnl value of the American fish crop, including that of Alaska and the Insular possessions, Is estimated now to be $150,000,000, allowing for the advances in value of the last year. The capital Invested In the flsher>? les of the United States, Including ves sels and the- land establishments for handling the fish. Is estimated at about $75,000,000, and the number of per son *fnp?oyed Is 220,000. The value of ?ea products turned out by the canneries Is $50,000,000. experts did well during the war rime; urge Americans to eat itterj sinh, not only because this helped conserve the supplies of beef and pork products but also because eating some good fish frequently means a change In the average ntan's diet which Is to hla benefit. The same argument holds true In regard to vegetables and green things, of which many people In cit ies do not eat enough for their own food. Qhoat Altogether Too Real. One of the most amusing mishaps that ever happened In any production of Sir Henry Irving was In "Hamlet," during the first appearance of the ghost. The actor impersonating the dead king of Denmark was ?ruddenly seized with a violent fit of sneezing, but sought valiantly to go on with his lines, thereby giving a new and curi ous rendering to the words: "Hamlet ? achou I ? I am ? achou I ? thy father's ? achou ! ? spirit !" The house whs In an uproar, and when next the ghost appeared a chorus of sneezes resound ed from the gallery and another epi sode of the great tragedian went from the sublime to the ridiculous.

MAXEY BUNKER HILL MONUMENT. THE elevation known as "Bunker Hill" Is situated In Charlestown, Boston harbor. On this spot, on June 17, 177ft, was fought the famous Battle of Bunker lllll, between the British and American forces. Here the gratitude and patriotism of the American peo ple have caused to be erected a great granite obe^sk as a memorial. Located In the center of a four-acre square and surrounded by an iron fence, this monument Is 221 feet high and SO feet in diameter at the base. Within the shaft is a circular stair way leading to a chamber, 11 feet In diameter and 17 feet high, at the top, from ^vlilch In visible a view that thrills the heart of every American, who^ms been fortunate enough to witness It. It is an Interesting fact that the corner stone was laid by General La Fayette, a son of glorious France, dur ing his famous visit to America in 18'2f>. The monument was dedicated in 1842, on which occasion Daniel Webster spoke these famous words: "It looks, it speaks. It acts, to the full coinprehclfclon of every American mind, and the awakening of glowing enthusiasm In every American heart. Its silent hut awful utterance; Its deep pathos, as It brings to our contempla tion the 17th of June, 177 fi, and the consequences which have resulted to us, to our country, and to the world, from the events of that day, and which we kr.?w must continue to rain Influ ence to the destinies of mankind to the end of time." The Real Chrletmae. Th? peal Christmas la nil Invisible presence, a Joyful glance of the eye, a wonderful expansion - of the heart, a sense of comradeship with all man kind.
