GERMAN CRUELTY Interesting Story Told by a Belgian Mother and Her Children. NOW LIVE IN ROANOKE For Two Days the Family Dodged German Bullets —Escaped at Night. In a small but neat home near the Wabaa.i tation in Roanoke ri sl'ie.i Mr. and Mrs. Colpanert and their two children Martha and Kelsey, a Belgium family whose heme in their native land was destroyed when the Get man soldiers swept the Belgian territory in which they resided. The husband had served his bit in the Belgian army leaving that country just a few days before the war broke out. In the few words of broken English that she has ] icked np since coming to the little town of Roanoke from the stricken country of Belgium, Mrs. Emma Colpanert tells with tears in her eyes of the cruelties heaped upon the citizens of her native land by the kaiser’s soldiers. She saw one little Belgian boy, just the age of her own, his hands severed at the wrists by a sword in the hands of a German <fficer. She saw the body of one of her neighbor women after death came from wounds inflicted by a bayonet carried by a savage Hun. and just a short distance from her home ten little lads were buried under a pile ot straw in which they were playing, coal oil poured over them and the match touched that caused terrible deaths. These are just a few of the acts as related by one who was there and is now glad she is in a land of peace, although hoping and praying that the war will end that she may return to see the remains of what was once the happiest home on earth to her. For two days, Mrs. Colpanert and her children, Martha, six. and Kelsey, four, dodged the German bullets and they stole away in the night time while the flames frem burning houses and barns were lighting up the sky. Little Martha now' able to speak excellent English for one of her years In spite of her short stay in the states, doesn’t want anything to do with the Germans and she expresses herself in no mild terms. Even though a. child, she realizes how close she came to be a. victim of one of the savages. Stealing away from her mother’s watchful eye for a minute she ran in front o$ a Hun rifleman. She looked into the barrel of his gun and crying, "Don’t shoot me.” fled to her mother’s arms and out of sight of the trooper. The Colpanert family lived in the rural district of Belgium, just a short distance from Ypres, where some of the fiercest fighting of the world struggle has been w-aged. Living with Mrs. Colpanert and her chilreti were her father and mother and broth?rs and sisters, the father conducting a country saloon. The German army swept into the territory on Saturday evening, taking possession of everything. In the Colpanert residence they carried away all cf the potatoes, other eatables in sight and some of the furniture. In other places they looted the homes and then set fire to them. Belgian soldiers resisted the invasion but I were not equal to the task. Just outside the door of her home, Mrs. ColI panert saw five of the kaiser's men killed by the Belgians. Until Sunday [evening the Germans held full sway. 1 Shooting the inhabitants, including litItle children. One sister of Mrs. Col--1 anert's happened outside the door and in an instant a rifleman pressed

his gun ugainst her body. Without words she dared him to shoot, not moving a muscle. For seme reason, he turned and walked away, allowing her to go free. On Sunday evening the French soldiers arrived on the scene and bullets filled the air. The Germans wi re forced back slightly, allowing Mrs. Colpanert, her children and other members of the family to ' gather up a few belongings and start for saftey tiehind the French lines. It was 1 o’clock in the morning when they started to walk and as they went they could see burning buildings in every direction. Their own barn was in flames a few minutes later. In , straw stacks they hid from German , pickets, not tarrying long, however, 1 At 4 o’clock in the afternoon they reached safety among French people, having had practically nothing to eat from the time they had started. One ; of the first acts was an effort to buy bread, but this was refused them, the storekeeper telling them all he had was for the soldiers. The family, like many others, had no friends or belongings that would fit them up in a

» home, but ihcy wore taken cure ol by the French living at Baupaume tor five m tnths and then moving Into the ini 'rim' of France, where Mr.'. Col panert received the Joyous word to * join her husband in the states. They railed from Bordeaux lun ling in New York after a nine days’ trip. - Huntington Herald. PROPRIETOR PLEASED ?

»>_ THE DEADLY "BEST” SUGAR A substitute for ordinary sugar is dealt with in an article published by the Berliner Tageblatt, which states that negotiations are at present going en between the war food bureau and the imperial sugar office, on the issue cf which depends whether the chemically pure white lump and castor sugar are to be replaced by raw sugtr, to which the name of “best” sugar (cdelzucker) is to be given. The motive for this innovation is to economize in coal. Sugar factories are to be amalgamated. This raw sugar contains 4% per cent of molasses. 1 per cent organic and % per cent inorganic foreign substances and it is t onsidered by experts as a breeding ground tor bacteria of every kind. The sticky, viscous nature of this sugar also adds to its objectionable qualities. It is not suitable for jam making, and gives a peculiar flavor to coffee, tea, etc. The Tageblatt says that this economy in coal will threaten the health of thousands, and hopes the nation will be spared the infliction. DANGERS OF A COLD Decatur People Will Do Well To Heed Them. Many bad cases of kidney trouble re suit frem a cold or chill. Congested kidneys fall behind in filtering the poison laden blood and backache, headache, dizziness and disordered kidney action follow. Don’t neglect a cold. Use Doan's Kidney Pills at the first sign of kindney trouble. Follow this Decatur resident's example: Mrs. Frank Bogner, 1104 West Memroe street, says: "Whenever 1 caught cold, my kidneys became disordered. My back then got sore and stiff and sharp pains shot through me whenever I bent over or got up from a . chair. A box of Doan's Kidney Pills has never failed to drive away the ■ trouble and put me in good health." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't ■ simply ask for a kidney remedy—get . Doan’s Kidney Pills— the same that ■ Mrs. Bogner had. Foster-Milburn Co., • Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y. advt o
