He is doing convoy and stretcher work in connection with the American Red Cross Hospital No. 5 in Paris, probably the largest military hospital in France, as it contains over 2,500 beds for patients. Fosler writes: "A friend and I went down into city yesterday, Sunday, to see the parade, and we saw some o ty,a rnx- Wo. ivont to the Ritz hotel to meet a "Y" man that my friend was i acquainted with, and saw a 101 oi guns and air planes that had been captured from the Huns, and a lot of German helmets with the points on top of them. There were twenty-six 'air planes circling over the city at one time, and two of them marked with the numbers 13 and 23 were American machines with Liberty motors.

The crowd thought he was falling and you ought to have seen them scatter. One plane went down the Seine river, hurdling the bridges. It was some sight; it appeared he was going under the bridges, but instead he would go over them. We ate supper at the Palais de Glace, and there was a mob down there. For four francs we had coffee, sandwiches, doughnuts and potato salad; after that we went to the Tuilleries, and when we came out of the park gate the crowd was packed like sardines, one crowd pushing end shoving one way, and another crowd doing the same going another way. Our Red Cross friends come out about five times a week and bring us doughnuts, ice cream and sometimes chocolate cake with icing one-half inch thick.

Never worry about me as long as they are with us. "I sure would have loved to have been in dear old Richmond the day you had the celebration for peace. It was great news to every one there.

THE THUNDERBOLT j Ned scanned his sister's face for the least sign of distrust In him. But she seemed hardly to hear his protestation. Instead, she was in a fever of
action. "What to do, Ned? What is there to do?" she repeated. "Nothing but to wait till the investigators have looked over our books." "Nothing!" Edith chided, staring. Then suddenly she left him as abruptly as Fay had done. She remembered that John's train had Just come in. Quickly putting on her street clothes, she went to meet her husband. There are times when a false note not only makes discord for the time, but lasts lone in the memory, and thereafter spoils all harmony. Edith felt that John might, with a word or even a look, so hurt her when she tola of her brother's predicament that she could never wholly love her husband again. If he showed the least dis trust of Ned. the sliKhtest inclination to say. "I told you so!" instead of coming . at once to his help, Edith would never forgive him. In such crises women are impatient with Jfhe causes; they only want effects. As she waited for John to speak Edith was as much afraid for John's sake as for her brother. She did not want to despise her husband. He listened gravely to her brief re cital of Ned's plight. 'You must first ask Ned whether he would want me to do anything in this matter," he said finally. Edith breathed more freely. Her husband had struck the right note. She kissed him and ran to iind her brother. A few minutes later Ned Flowerton strode up to John Ferrol and grasped his hand. "I haven't the slightest idea of let ting you get mixed up in my trouble, John," he said, his voice vibrant with sincerity. "But I sure do appreciate your wanting to do it after the mess I've made of things! It's worth a lot to me, the way you and Ede have put up with me! Some day I'll be able " He turned away suddenly. The chasm between his hope and the prospect of its realization opened before him and took the heart out of him. The sight of Edith, looking with pathetic hopefulness at her husband, prompted John to say: "Of course you'll do anything you want to do, old man! This thing will work out all right and there'll be no stopping you!" "I certainly hope so!" came from a shrewdish voice in the doorway. Fay had come in unnoticed. "But what's to become of me meanwhile?" she demanded, evidently bent on getting an answer that would satisfy her. Before any of them could reply there was a ring at the door bell. The whole group listened spellbound to the reverberation as though it had sound Thrive on "Flu" Germs (By Associated Press! BOSTON, Mass., Dec. 14. Influenza germs, placed in nostrils and threats and eaten in their food by 100 volunteers in government experiments, have resulted in an increase of appetites and more vigorous health, according to physicians. The experiments were undertaken by the Navy Department at the Navy Public Health Service Hospital, on Gallups Island, to ascertain the cause and spread of influenza. They have had merely negative results, according to a report given out today. Some volunteers have been inoculated with serums, but no cases of the disease have developed thus far. The tests will be continued.

ed the doom of one of them. They heard small Jack scamper to the front
door and open it. A man s voice asked a curt question and heavy steps came along the hall toward the room. The door opened. A tall, firmly built man entered without ceremony. He loked sharply at them, then approached Ned. "Is this Edgar Flowerton?" he demanded. Ned nodded. , Something in the group before him caused a change in the man's manner. "I'm 6orry, Mr. Flowerton," he said, with a touch of regret in his voice, "but you will have to accompany me to the city. I'm a United States marshal." He showed his badge. "It's in connection with the Superpertect Heater Corporation. Your Mr. Larney is already in custody." Edith throttled a cry with both hands over her lips. Ned turned away from her in pain, but straightening up reached for his hat. John turned to accompany him. Fay Summers was the only one unmoved by the scene. Taking a ring off her finger she approached Ned slowly and put it into his hand. "I think you had better take this back," she said coldly. "I didn't know the man you were when I promised to marry you. I know now. Goodby!" No one moved till they beard the front door slam shut behind her. (To be continued.)
