DEAD ARE MOUNTING GUARD
8oldiers Who Were Killed at Douaumont
Still Thrust Their Bayonets
Above Ground.
At Douaumont, France, Cardinal Dubois,
archbishop of Rouen and former
bishop of Verdun, blessed the historic
Tranchee des Fusils, the "Trenches of '
the Rifles," September 14. The ceremony
occurred in the presence of General
Valentin, commander of the forts
and heights of the Meuse; of M. Robin,
mayor of Verdun, and a delegation of
the One Hundred and Thirty-seventh
regiment, according to Current His
/ tory, New York Times.
The Trench of the Rifles lies behind
a humble wooden cross erected near
Douaumont, which is a shapeless mass
of splintered rock, of barbed wire
writhing as if in torment, of nameless
litter, through which poppy and
uiamuit? meu LU un usi u^naiu uui
Ing the summer. This cross overlooks
the bloodiest battle field of the war.
It was erected by men of the One Hundred
and Thirty-seventh regiment because
close by their dead comrades are
still mounting guard?there in the
Tranchee des Fusils.
It was a small episode amidst a cataclysm
and soon over. In Indian file
the men of the One Hundred and Thii>
ty-seventh crept forth to mount guard,
rifle on shoulder, bayonets fixed; there
came a sudden, thunderous boom; the
earth shuddered and cracked open,
dosed again, and swallowed up all.
Thrusting above the ground, aligned
as on that last march down the narrow
trench that led to death, the bayonets
of the section rise a bare six
- inches. It was this Trench of Rifles,
and the dead heroes, still mounting
guard below, that the cardinal blessed.
,LAW AS TO COLOR BLINDNESS
? ..... - ? A!-Ui
Does Not mean loss ot oignt, n^viuing
to Ruling Made by Georgia
Superior Court
Color blindness does not mean total
1 loss of sight in the meaning of the law,
*lt was held recently by Judge John T.
Pendleton in the motion division of
Superior court at Atlanta, Ga.
Judge Pendleton's decision cleared
a legal point raised only once before
la the United States, so far as is shown
by court records. This was in Ne<
braska, where both the lower court
and the State Supreme court held that
color blindness means total blindness.
The question was raised in a suit
brought by George L. Fallin, who was
a locomotive engineer for the Atlanta
Joint Terminals, against the Locomo
tive Engineer Mutual Insurance and
Accident association, a branch of j
the Brotherhood of Locomotive En
gineers.
Engineer Fallin, it was set out, became
color blind while engaged in his
line of duty and was discharged from
his position. He then applied to the
engineers' association for his insurance?$1,500?for
the loss of his eyesieht
as stipulated in the policy. The
association, however, declined to pay
the amount on the ground that color
blindness did not come within the
terms of the policy concerning blindness.
Fallin then brought suit in the
courts through his counsel, City Attor*
j ney James L. Mayson.
, Chinaman and His Queue.
On AprH 16, at what was once the
village of Fanpoux, I met a Chinese
who was trying to grow a queue. It
was only about a foot long and did
not improve his appearance any. That
day while out in the fields salvaging
ammunition, his nose told him he was
in the vicinity of some unsuccessfully !
buried foreigners. He was hardened ;
by this time to all sorts of disagree- j
able things, but the incident went to ;
the back of his head and only served ;
to strengthen his belief that he should :
grow a queue. Foreigners wear their
hair cut short. He had been in France
going on two years and had long since
concluded that he did not want to imitate
them. Hence the queue.?World's
Work.
Dantzig Rich in Memories.
The old fortress of Dantzig is rich !
In Napoleonic lore. It was here that j
the man of destiny failed to heed the
intimations of a grand council of his I
marshals?Murat, Ney and the rest? I
that his star had pawed perihelion;
it was here that he upbraided them for
having grown soft in prosperity, and
for opposing the invasion of Russia;
and it was from Dantzig that his legions
"jumped off" for the ill-fated
Moscow campaign.
In a later day uantzig was tne Dacxgronnd
and base for the northern
shear of Mackensen'e gray-green pincers
that took Warsaw.
The Gridiron.
"But you have no field of honor In
zis countree," said the French visitor.
"Oh, yes, we have," replied the
American citizen.
"Oui?"
"Oui, oui. We have a field of honor
with two go?! posts at each end, and
our husky young Americans take a delight
in plowing it with their noses."?

Terrible Suffering From Headache,
Sideache, Backache, and Weakness,
Relieved by Cardui,
Says This Texas Lady.
Gonzales, Tex.? Mrs. Minnie Philpot,
of this place, writes: "Five years
ago I was taken with a pain in my
left side. It was right under my
left rib. It would commence with an
aching and extend up Into my left
shoulder and on down Into my back.
By that time the pain would be so
severe I would have to take to bed,
and suffered usually about three days
... I suffered this way for three years,
and got to be a mere skeleton and was
so weak I could hardly stand alona
Was not able to go anywhere and had
to let my house work go...I suffered
awful with a pain in my back and I
had the headache all the time. I just
was unable to do a thing. My life
was a misery, my stomach got in an
awful condition, caused from taking
so much medicine. I suffered so much
pain. I had just about given up all
hopes of our getting anything to help
me.
One day a Birthday Almanac was
thrown In my yard. After reading
its testimonials I decided to try Cardui,
and am so thankful that I did,
for I began to improve when on the
second bottle...I am now a well
woman and feeling fine and the cure
has been permanent for it has been
two years since my awful bad health.
1 will always praise and recommend
Cardui." Try Cardui today. E 78
