tatoes, cabbage, beans and corn all

Papa's letter came today. Clad to
hear that Iron Duff, as well as the
county at large, is waking up a"d rs
alixing the responsibility that is upon
them: the longer the war lasts the
more the people will realirc the ;m-
portance of their sacrificing.
For many months before I enlisted
I thought of my duty and for several
months knew what I was going to do.
I would hate very much to think 1
would not get to come back home,
but I would rather stay in "No-Man's-Land"
than for Germany to get one
single thing in the peace treaty they
want.
The people at home should make it
so hard for the slacker that he will
hare to "get out or get under."
Tell the others I will write them
soon. Your brother,
R, M. DAVIS.

town to the Y. M. C. A. Can't talk
to anyone in town; just go by signs.
Did you get the letter I mailed at Hal
ifax? We had a little scare-up com
ing over, but it didn't amount to any
thing. The hardest thing of all is to
count the money, when I buy any
thing; just have to lay down a pile
and let them take out what they
want for I can't count it.
We ought to do some fighting over
here for there is about 18 hours day
light each day.
About all they are short of over
here is sugar. We have nothing very
sweet not even the girls.

"I have actually gained sixteen
pounds on two bottles of Tanlac and
am now able to cook for a whole
house full of peopje," said Mrs. Lin

"For 23 long years I have strug

good until f started taking. Tanlac,""
she continued. "Everything I tried to.
eat hurt me, and I could eat no meat,
or vegetables at all. The pressure
from gas that arose on my stomach
almost smothered mc to death. I'd
gasp for breath, and my folks would
have to rub me and work, with me
until I could get back my speech. . I
suffered with pains' in my shoulders
and limbs and back, and would get w
weak that I'd have to. lay down four
or five times a day and could, do none
of my work at all
"After spending lots and lots of
money for other medicines without
getting any relief I decided to try
Tanlac and I began to pick up as soon
as I started taking it. I ant eating-'
just anything I want now and I have
not had a smothering spell sincf I
took my first bottle. I am not nor- '
vous any more, I sleep fins every
night and every sign ot my old trou
