It Was "Fight or Uie."
Tommy Kehoe, a alxteen-year-old
English boy, tolls how ho "got his tirst
Hun." Not a hundred feet away tUey
were when our lads were Jumping to
the parapet to meet them with their
bayonets. I made a leap for the top
of Llie ludder, grabbed at It, missed
and slipped back. Somebody reached
out a hand and pulled me up.
Almost on us they were, t >li, never
In my worst dreams?and I've had
many a bad one since then?have I
seen a more dreadful sight than that.
They came at us out of the dark like
heuds from another world, like the
pictures I've seen of tnen from Mars,
for their heads were covered with the
most evil looking masks that anybody
could Imagine, masks with huge round
eyes and long, piggish snouts. Shells
were bursting above them, machine
.guns were tearing through their ranks
and their masks were fcMte and ghastly
In the light of the rockets. Many a
time I had thought of what war would
be like, hut never had I thought I
should look on such a sight as that, j
r mm or die, Tommy Kchoe! Fight
or die!"
That's what I told myself as I
crouched In .front of the sand bap*,
with my bayonet ret.dy for them.
Whopping big men they were, head
and shoulders above me. Hut an I
Malted there a thought flashed
.through tne of the Bantam regiment,
little fellows scarcely bigger than 1,
who had made good against even those
giant Prussians. Size didn't count behind

counted. I was sure of It. If It didn't.,

and poured through the lanes where
the big guns had leveled our wires.

over my shoulder. He staggered and
fell over nt.v gun. I had got 111 in ! I
had got hlrn! In the stotnaeh!
'Twas lueky for tue there was no
time to think over It or to stand there
gaping at him?the dead Hun hanging
over my gun with his masked head
almost touehlng me?for It was horrible.
For n seeond or two I turned diary
and sick. But It was tight again or
die. I Jerked my rifle hark and stumhied
over the dead man as he flopped
to the ground.
"Make for their stomachs, Tommy
Kehoe ! Make for their stomachs I" I
told myself. "Size don't count."

HAWK DESTRUCTIVE TO TREE!
Birds' Unvarying Diet of Fi6h Soone
or Later Causes Death Through
Accumulations of Grease.
Random bits of curious knowledR
often come the way of persons wh
live In the summer time close by th
ocean's edne. One Rets to know, fo
Instance, such things as wliy haw
nests ro often are seen In dead tree!
It Is not that the hawk. In seekin
a home site, by choice picks a dea
tree in which to build Its nest of twlj?
and things; on the contrary, it Inva
riahly selects a live one. The dea
tree is the effect, not the cause of th
hawk's preference.
Hawks of the kind considered her
live exclusively on fish. Fish nr
oily, and so it follows that after i
few thousand have been dissected am
eaten in a nest the tree inhabited b
a hawk family becomes discourage*
and abandons the struggle.
After hawks have used a loft;
bough as a (lining room for two o
three years a tree becomes so greas;
that leaves find it impossible to hol<
on. The oil slowly makes Its way t*
the roots, covering them and makln
the absorbing of water from the eartl
out of the question. Deprived of oxy
gen, having no leaves through wide]
to breathe It in. and of water, becnus
its roots are greased like a Labor da;
pig, the trAtf ftets discouraged am
gives up the fight.

^ In View of His Extremely Unconventlonal
"Uniform" He Could Hardly
j Be Charged With Spying, as
Gen. Gordon Quickly Sew.
In his "Reminiscences of the Civil
^ War," General Gordon relates that
u while the two hostile armies were conr.
fronting each other 011 the llapldan,
n the Confederate and the Union pickets
1- became so very "chummy" that the
0 commanding generals were appre>r
henslve lest Important military Infor1
matlon might leak out.
us An almost continuous exchange of
tobacco for coffee was going 011 bex_
; tween "Yanks" and "Johnnies;" also
much exchanging of newspapers. When
-t the river was so deep thut the soldiers
coukl not wade across, they rigged
miniature boats and rafts loaded with
e 1 whatever they wished to trade and
sent them over as the breeze favored.
s The consignees on both sides scrupulously
respected these small argosies,
" and always sent bnek a fair equivalent.
The men not only conversed across
the river, but "visited" back and forth
B for an hour or two at a time. The
officers began to fear that they might
s become too frlenilly to light with
j, proper energy; and at last General
Lee Instructed General Gordon to put
_ a stop to It.
Mounting his horse, the general
5 started to ride along the river front,
and almost Immediately came upon a
ir Confederate outpost, where Ills sudden
appearance seemed to creute un
uuusuul degree of excitement and stir.
"What's going on here?" demanded
a the general.
o "Nothing at all, sir!" cried one of
e the soldiers eagerly; while another atr
tempted to explain that the confusion
k was owing to their haste to "present
arms" to hiin.
g General Gordon was satisfied that
d this was a subterfuge, but lie could
s see nothing amiss, and had turned to
i- ride uwuy when he saw some tall
(1 weeds on the river bunk begin to
e shake.
"What's In those weeds?" he asked,
e wheeling his horse.
o "Nothing ut all, sir!" cried a chorus
a of voices.
d "Break down the weeds!"
y Very reluctantly one of the men did
il so?and there lay a large, red-headed
"Yank" in purls naturalihus, having
y evidently hut that minute swum ucross
r the river.
y "Where do you belong?" the general
4 asked him severely.
0 "Over yonder, general," replied the
f? Yankee, with a wave of his arm across
ti the river and un inscrutable grltuuce.
"What are you doing here?"
'? "Jest a little frlcudly visit to the
e boys, general."
y "Don't you know that there's a war
1 raging In this country?"
"Yes, tjir; lf,yt * ta n't ragln' today,"
was the quulnt reply ; and the ring of

, dignity and to enforce ordera.
e "Have you anything to say why I
^ should not have you shot as a spy?"
f demanded the general sternly. "Is
t that your uniform?"
,f1 "Wal, general, It's the uniform my
1 mother gave me." came from the
?? weeds In a drawl so Irresistible that
,r , the "Johnnies" shouted,
n j Quickly perceiving that this was a
d case where It was necessary to treat
t the matter as a Joke or else to mete
d out extreme severity, General Gordon
n chose the former alternative,
n "Ix?ok here," said he; "If I let you go
t hack to your own lines this time, will
n you?"
h It was unnecessary to finish the senI
tencc. With a spring to his feet the

The lowing herd wound slowly o'er

one for walking and as we swung I

deep from nature's fount, learning
many things. As the mlld-eyed cows
made their leisurely way down the

loosest conception of what a lea wns, (

in Which All Heart Depressing
Qualities Are Counteracted
by Heart Toning Agents
Physicians and druggists who
havo kept up with recent discoveries
in medical science are now introducing
to their patients and customers
the new pain relieving tablet
called Aspitone, which does not de-j
press the heart and circulation. They
explain that headaches and neuralgias
as well as colds and grippe are
usually attended t?y a fatigued heart

gerous at such times to use coal tari
derivatives. In fact they are cla.ming
that all the coal tar derivatives'
are positively dangerous, even tov
strong hearts. Tliey say that many I
