BABEL OF TONGUES
HEARD IF! DUNKIRK
French Channel Port, Once in
Fear of Annihilation, Re
assured by Fleet.
ANXIETY IS OVERCOME
Tragedy of Belgium Appears in
races of Soldiers Who' Have
Been Making Stand for Xast
Corner of Country.
DUNKIRK. France, Nov. 11. (Corre
spondence of the Associated -Press.)
The people of Dunkirk heard the other
morning that the German general staff
had either annihilation or a . siege In
tore for them as a part of the cam
paign against Calais. However, the
people were reassured by the sight of
the British fleet, whicB. in plain view
from the heights around the town, was
weeping the German positions in the
dunes behind Nleuport.
On the street, by a freak of destiny,
the statue of a great French sailor,
Jean Bart, a merciless enemy to Eng
land, holds in his bronze arms the
standard of Albion. Belgian refugees
going south salute with a melancholy
air the almost steady file of ambulances
from the front.
Many Languages Heard,
In such crowds the Flemish language
predominated, but In the file of soldiers
with which the exodus of refugees is
confused at times one hears English,
French, Flemish, Arab, the Moroccan
patois of the Goumiers and Hlndostanee.
The station, under military guard, is
full, of soldiers of all arms and of all
races that are fighting for the allies.
The others watch curiously while the
Knglish rush to the locomotive of an
Incoming train and beg hot water from
the engineer In order to prepare their
6 o'clock tea.
As the danger of an attack by the
Germans seems to become more re
mote curiosity has triumphed over
anxiety and great crowds rush to the
streets and around the station to see
the conglomeration of races.
Belsrlan Onus on Scrap Heap,
All the tragedy of Belgium the
maximum of moral suffering, the ljmlt
of physical endurance seems to be
visible in the grave expressions of the
soldiers who have been making a stand
lor the last little free corner of their
country. The depressed feeling that
these faces Inspire was increased when
the other day a file of nearly 400 field
jtuns was dragged through by horses
that looked as weary and melancholy
as their riders. These were the guns
that had defended Antwerp as well as
they could.
For lack of ammunition bought from
the Krupps for delivery in June, but
delivery of which was deferred, they
were obliged to use French shells that
were not fitted to them, and which
consequently tore the rifling out. The
guns were going to the scrap heap, and
the horses, after being rested, will
draw back French three-inch, field
guns in their places.
Surprise Experienced at Fnrneav-
After the procession of wornout
guns came more refugees, who were
perhaps the most disheartened of those
who have passed through. Some of
them were left in Fumes the other
day when a brief lull in the fighting
gave the tired troops a needed repose,
when the report came that the Ger-
mans were retiring from Dixmude. The
soldiers were lolling In the warm sun
shine in the streets and the officers
calmly taking their afternoon tea
when the bursting of a shell In a
three-story building on the historic
square opposite the City Hall brought
them back to the realization that they
were 8111 near the front.
The stone front of the building fell
In a pile in the street. A crowd gath
ered to look for the German flying
machine which was supposed to have
done the damage, but other shells fell
Jn the outskirts of the town. The
steady fire of artillery was heard all
along the front.
Kin a- Albert Inspires Men.
The British fleet Joined In sending
its projectiles over the town lno the
German lines. The refugees, waiting
for their passes at the station, were
obliged to turn farther south, accom
panied by- some of the inhabitants of
Furnes, though most of the latter
stuck to their homes.
The Belgian soldiers, who after the
retreat from Antwerp were to have
had a long rest, were once again drawn
into the thick of the fighting. King
Albert, in spite of the efforts of his
'""sninieters to keep him out of danger,
was with his men on the firing line.
They found renewed energy in his ex
ample and fought with the same fury
as before Liege for the few square
miles of Belgian territory that re
mained unoccupied by the enemy.

SANTIAGO. Chile. Nov. 21. The
American steamship Sacramento, which
until a few months ago was the Gor
man steamship Alexandria, has put
into Valparaiso and the story related
by her captain has resulted in the
Chilean authorities starting an Investi
gation to determine who is responsible
for the apparent violation of neutral

Jacobson declares his steamer was
seized on the high seas by a German
warship and taken to Juan Fernandez
Island, belonging to Chile. Here he
was obliged by the Germans to turn
over his provisions and 6000 tons of
coal. '
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 21. The
steamer Sacramento, detained at pres
ent In Valparaiso, met so much trouble
in obtaining a change of registry from
the German to the American flag that
ouring the debate she was nicknamed
the "ship without a country."
Her new owners are the Northern &
Southern Steamship Company, newly
organized, and thus far the Sacramento
is their only vessel. After a transfer
finally had been allowed irregularities
were discovered In the signing of the
crew and she was held np as she was
leaving port until the formalities had
been fulfilled.
The cargo of the Sacramento, which
included coal, provisions and engine-
room supplies, excited much comment
at the time, but the authorities were
unable to pick any flaws in the ex
planations' offered and the vessel at
last received clearances.

sumers as to the medicinal qualities
of the king of fruits, the result has
been that the deluge of apples in bar
rels, boxes and loose in cars and
wagons, which sent the price to bed
rock during October did not last long,
as they were eaten quickly by the
7.000.000 who live in, and in the im
medinate vicinity of New York City.
Prices have shown a steady improve
ment during the last ten days. Mean
while, the movement developed by the
low prices continues, as the people are
not to be deterred from having their
"apple a day" by the rise in price.
The shipment of several thousand
boxes of apples on each of the steam
ers of the Lamp & Holt line that go to
South America, and the revived de

England Heavy Burn.
Measured in barrels, 75.941 or what
corresponds to nearly 150 carloads of
apples, were shipped from North
America to England during the first
week In November.
Of the total amount of apples
shipped from. North America to Eng
land 81,195 barrels wero from Cana
dian ports and 44,746 barrels from the
United States. The gross Is 14,391 bar
rels less than the amount shipped dur

The New York market, however, still
feels the loss of German buying. The
Kalaer's people were the largest for
eign consumers of the Northwest boxed
apple. About 300 carloads were shipped
to that country last season.
The careful management of II. F.
Davidson, president of the North Pa
cific Fruit Distributors, during the last
two weeks has been another factor in
the rise of prices. He has sold 125 cars.
"When I arrived in New York," said
Mr. Davidson, "the apple market was
in bad condition. In fact, according to
statements made by men who have

"There were two principal reasons.
First, there were, apparently, a large
number of shippers who lost control of
their product at shipping point and yet
continued to own the fruit until It was
sold In the Eastern markets
"The second cause of the trouble was
that a Kood many of our shippers, fol
lowing- a 'penny wise and pound
foolish' policy, tried to save the cost
of refrigeration and accordingly re
duced the price from 25 cents to BO
cents a box. The bad condition of the
fruit upon arrival had a panicky effect
upon the salesmen, and with the real

Sims did not answer a telegraphic

Besides the 11 designated for death
December 19, three other men have
been condemned to hang, and the

GRAY
THIN FOR YEARS "GAINS 22
POUNDS IN 23 DAYS"
Remarkable Experience ef F. Gas.
Don. Bntlda Up Weight
Wonderfully,
. "I was all run down to the very
bottom," writes F. Gagnon. "I had
to quit work, I was so weak. Npw,
thanks to tsargol, I look like a new
man. I gained 22 pounds in 23 days."
"Sargol has put 10 pounds on me
in 14 days," states W. D. Roberts.
"It has made roe sleep well, enjoy
what I ate and enabled me to work
with interest and pleasure."
'I weighed 132 pounds when I
commenced taking Sargol. After
taking 20 days I weighed ' 144
pounds. Sargol Is the most won
derful preparation for flesh build
ing I have ever seen." declares D.
Martin, and J. Meier adds: "For the
past twenty years I have taken
medicine every day for Indigestion
and got thinner every year. I took
Sargol for forty days and feel bet
ter than I have felt In twenty years.
My weight has Increased from 150
to 170 pounds."
When hundreds of men and wom-en-
and there are hundreds, with
more coming every day living In
every nook and corner of this
broad land, voluntarily testify to
weight increases ranging all the
way from 10 to So pounds, given
them by Sargol, you must admit.
Mr. and Mrs. and Miss Thin Reader,
that there must be something in
this Sargol method of flesh building
after alL
Hadn't you better look Into It,
just as thousands of others nave
done? Many thin folks Bay: "I'd
give most anything to put on a lit
tle extra weight, but when some
one suggests a way they exclaim.
"Not a chance. Nothing will make
me plump. I'm built to stay thin."
Until you have tried Sargol, you do
not and cannot know that this is
true.
Sargol has put pounds of healthy
"stay there" flesh on hundreds who
doubted and in spite of their doubts.
You don't have to believe in Sargol
to grow plump from its use. You
Just take it and watch weight pile
up, hollows vanish and your figure
round out to pleasing and normal
proportions. You weigh yourself
when you begin and again when
you finish and you let the scales
tell the story.
, Sargol is Just a tiny concentrated
taDieu xou take one with every
meal. It mixes with the food you
eat for the purpose of separating
all of Its flesh-producing ingredi
ents. It prepares these fat-making
elements in an easily assimilateu
form, which the blood can readhy
absorb and carry all over your
body. Plump, well-developed per
sons don't need Sargol to produce
this result. Their assimilative ma
chinery performs its functions with
out aid. But thin folks' assimila
tive organs do not. This fatty por
tion of their food now goes to
waste through their bodies Tike un
burned coal through an open grate.
A - few day 8 test of Sargol In your
case will surely prove whether or
not this Is true of you. Isn't It
worth trying?
