From Harvey Blum. France, October 4. 191S. Mr. and Mr. J. F. Blum, Hammond. Ind. At the present time it is best that 1 spend most of my spare moments . :t.nR, as we have been on the move for over ten days now and may go .ward at eny moment agrain. Of ,:: you have read of the big bat- : 't h ihw in progress all along: the ' and our regiment is in the midst ere r them. i.asl month we were on a different !: r.t where we went through some ' v spirited fighting in which of oo'is-ye our boys came out on top. We li:en rame t-jit for a short rest and i r n in here. When we first came

("p to that time this had been; a eery quiet front, so 1 guess it was j ou.te a surprise to the Hun when oar' ba-i?se started. It was some barrage, pr.d when we went "over the top' in th morning , there wasn't very much j ft of the German trenches. You j

should have seen our boys go ror'j f hi, u n as wonderful. That night we stopped for a short breathinsj spell nd the next morning we went forward again, pushing the Boche for all r.- was worth. It was hard going as the country was very rojgh and hilly r;rd ruii of heavy brush. Th Germans must have planned to -0'-i;d a very pleasa,rtt winter here .hey put up nice cozy shades and all t'r dugouts had stoves and beds in them. One of them had a piano ino'.ailed. Most of my boys are quarter. .- i ;n a concrete building w hich the Roche had built and used for a telephone exi-hange generating plant, so ; o i can see. they thought this was a i'-ninnent place for them. .1 st now our guns are barking n-.vp? at the Germans and we are get--tirg ready for another push. Tli(ids are so thick here that our on-

Don't scold your fretful. peevish child. See jf tongue is coated; this isj a sure sign it si little stomach, liver and bowels are clogged with sour waste. When iittless, pale. vecnsh, full of cold, l ;alh bad, thront sore, doesn't out, sleep or act naturally, has stuirnchnche, iniliifes.l ion, diarrhoea, gi'e a tcaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs," and In a few hours all the foul waste, the. sour bil and fermenting food passes out of thf? bowels and you have, a well and playful child again. Children love this harmless "fruit laxative," and mothers can rest easy after giving it. because it never fijlls to make their little "lnsides" clean and sweet. Keep it handy. Mother! A little given today saves a siek child tomorrow, but get the genuine. Ask your druggist for a 60-cent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs." which has directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly on the bottle. Remember there are counterfeits sold here, so surely look and see that yours is made by the "California Fig Syrup Company." Hand back with contempt any other fig syrup.

Another thing 1 want to tell you is that the V- S- is taking good care of us and supplying us with everything that we need, hut ice cream and some of the boys were telling me they even got ice cream in the Y.

Dear Mother: Received your's and Edna's letter some time ago but had no chance to answer them, but have time now so will write a few lines. I sent you $30 today. Aa soon as you get it write and let me know. It will do me more good If I am lucky enough to get back than it will here. It haa been rough on me for the last few weeks. I went over the top twice in two days, the machine gun bullets and shrapnel whizzed by my ears so close that I could feel them sting but we certainly drove the Germans back, took prisoners and captured cannons and horses and everything they had. I am writing this letter with a German lead pencil and I ate some German rye bread and drank some of their beer and I shaved myself with a German raror which I got as a souvenir. "Was In No

EilSy TO DARKEN YDUHGRAY HI You can Bring Back Color and Lustre with Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Headache of any kind, is caused by

Tou become nervous. despondent, sick, feverish and miserable, your meals sour and almost nauseate you. Then you resort to acetanillde. aspirin or the bromides which temporarily relieve h it do not rid the blood of these Irrilatinx toxins. A Rla?s of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. drank before breakfast for awhile, will not only wash these poisons from your system and cure you of headache but will cleanse, purify and freshen the entire alimentary canal. Ask your pharmacist for a quarter r-cund of limestone rhosphate. It Is inexpensive, harmless as sugar, and almost tasteless, except for a sourish twinjre which is not unpleasant. If you aren't feeling your best, if tongue is coated or you wake up with bad taste, foul breath or have colds, indigestion, biliousness, constipation or sour, acid stomach, begin the phosphatod hot water cure to rid your system of toxins and poisons. Results are quick and It is- claimed that those who continue to flush out the stomach, liver and bowels every morning never have any headache or know a miserable moment. Adv.

. SIMPLICITY MARKS THE WINTER HAT

When you darken your hair with S?fre Tea and .Sulphur, no one can tell, because it's done so naturally, so evenly. Freparingr this mixture, though, at home is mussy and troublesome. At little cost you can buy at any drug- store the ready-to-use preparation, improved by the addition of other ingredients called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound." Tou just dampen a eponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small Mrarid at a time. By morning all gray hair disappears, and. after another application or two. your hair becomes beautifully darkened, glossy and luxuriant. Jray, faded hair, though no disgrace, is a sign of old age, and as we all desire a youthful and attractive appearance, get busy at once with Wyeth's ."age and Sulphur Compound and look

years younger. This ready-to-use preparation is a delightful toilet requisite and not a medicine. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease. Adv.

Man's Land for 4 days and nights. The second time we wejit over the top T had a close call, I got lost from my platoon and ran into ten Germans. They opened fire on me and one of the bullets ripped my raincoat and blouse all the way across my back but I got one of them, so they paid for It. I was lost for nearly two hours till I finally got back to my company. I certainly was glad to get back too. believe me. But am back at a rest camp now, resting up and getting plenty to cat and lots of tobacco at the T. M. C. A. and Red Cross. The rainy season has set In and it is very wet and muddy.
