We paused In a roomy dugout, where
a surgeon was examining by the light
of a carefully shaded lantern one

splint was applied to Bill s broken arm
and some sort of temporary dressing'
to the torn abdomen.

The nurse rolled up his sleeve and tied
a thong tightly around his upper arm;
the veins swelled In Its crook, she

Pala Mercifully Relieved.
"Careful not to go clear through the
vein." warned the surgeon. "Now then!"
The orderly plunged the curved nee

The nurse loosened the thong. Until
the well of the syringe was empty the
orderly's Index finger shoved forward
the piston. Then the nurse applied the
Iodine again. In five minutes a sleeping

A dim lantern, suspended from the

the walls, the rear was open. Suspend

For a while occasional shells burst
n the mined fields beside us, or howled
overhead like leaping leopards, and
once we drew up, not an Instant too
soon, before a freshly made crater in

It waa almost aa cold here as It had
bean In the trench. Tha motion of the
ambulance waa the nauseating motion
of a channel steamer. Bill lay still, but
one of hi companions babbled of home
nd tore at hla bandages, and the other
one was sick, r-ucning rrom aide to
tde of the vehicle, I cleaned away the
mess and did my best to replace the
disordered lint and linen.
I crouched again at the rear. A puff
of cold air extinguished the lamp. Grop-

something wet and atfeky the facs of
tha man who had been delirious, but
that was now silent and still. By the
flicker of the relighted lamp, I w

of that Institution. Up on a hill stood
the handsome old chateau with Its
carven doorway, with Its armorial bear
ings and the motto. "Del gratia eum
quod sum"; gardens stretched, acre

But a close glance showed that the
war had converted It to a more useful
purpose. Fifty new buildings had
sprung up around the old ones, and
buildings ptfU newer enough. I waa
afterward, told, for 1000 more beds
were In procese of construction Just
beyond the farthest wall.
We passed a house labeled "Bacterio
logical Laboratory," another the sign
on hlch proclaimed It the "Fumigation
Plant." We passed esrbarns and rest
rooms. There waa Just a glimpse of
the little autopsy house And, beyond It,
a tiny field with heaps of freshly
turned earth and headstones.
There was one hut. sent down here by
the American Red Cross and devoted,

age of the hospital's linens: there were
the surgical wards, the medical, vene
real, casual and isolation wards, each
housed under Its own roof, and finally,
here we were drawn up at the receiving
ward, a group of orderlies rady to un
load our ambulance.
i paused to make, to a waiting young
Interne, my report of our Journey. Then
I followed BUI to the room where they
had carried him.': -
He was In a frightful condition. For
a week he had lived with death; rats
had been his most freauent companions.
He was mated to mud and familiar with
filth. Caked with blood and clay.
crawling with vermin, he was taken to
a rude bunk.
Nurses In speckles white removed
hi clothes. He was shaved: he Was
given the luxury of a warm bath: he
was wheeled Into another room for the
diagnosis.
Patients la Steady Btreaza.
"The number of patients 1 changing

known It to Jump from 400 to 700 In
two day without warning. And you
can't count on orders. One night a week'

While he was talking w were fol

We went through a room where, out
of powdered plaster of parts, hot water

were manufacturing casts for Injured

"The Red Cross ha put up a plant

He opened a door.
Bill lay on the operating tabl

refinement of face which loss of blood
invariably produces. The nurses were
already grouped about him, surgeons
and assistants already at work.
"They're after that abdominal
wound," the Interne told me. "They're
working witn the Iluoroscope."
X-ray Points Out Way.
Above Bill's upturned feet and about
a yard away stood an X-ray appara
tus; its flesh-piercing light fell on
disk of metal that an orderly held over
Bills based waist. The violet rays
passed through the disk and into the
patient a abdominal cavity; the Bur
geon's eyes followed them through the
metal and into the flesh, hi knife-plying
fingers worked under the disk and
deep in the wounded man's belly. He
cut with that solid plate for a window,
"He can see what he' after before
he gets started," my guide exulted,
"and if he overlooks- any shell frag
ments there Is a magnetic contrivance
that sounds a buxser when he get near
them. . . .
It would be all right, they told me.
The broken arm was nothing, nor the
superficial wound on It; as to the ab
dominal Injury, thanks to the fluoro-
scope and the nitrous oxide, a stay
here under treatment and then a rest
at one of the Red Cross convalescents'
camp by the seaside would fit Bill for
a return to the trenches long before
our army should enter in force.
So I watched them clothe my friend
In the doleful pajamallke suit of black

knives were still in hi flesh, nurses
had taken from shelves bearing the

Bill was in safer hand than mine.
I felt free to look over the hospital.

It Is a fact no observer can deny
the cheer which the presence of a
woman brings into one of these mil
itary hospitals; she Is a tonlo to the
spirit and her regarding eyes make
for military neatnes more effectually
than any general order.
Don't, however, get It into your head
that the nurses' lot Is easy. The wom

fessional nurses and the qualifications
for nursing at this Institution obtain
throughout tho American xone. The
"Luclle" ideal of 1870 la, luckily, dead
and burled; the only nurses that the
Army will admit are trained nurses,
and they have a life about as hard
as the Teddies.
"My girls," the head nurse told me,
"sleep with their gas masks beside
thle beds when they get time tol
sleep at all; they are on duty for Just

They're often In the wet. they're gen

great deal to learn about modern war.
Thi Is the hospital to which were
brought the American soldiers wound
in the first trench raid. I tamed io
some of them as they lay in their bed
In the urglcaJ ward, and got from
them many stories, the better half of
which may not here be told.
It was a pltch-blacK night when
the Boches came over, one soldier told
me. He was lying flat on his back
with hi left leg elevated by a com
plicated apparatus, at right anglaa to
his body. JI course we were new w
the Job and dldn t Know just wnat to
expect. At first, because the shell fell
all around us ana not on us, we ion
rather safe.
"Then, all of a eudden, we realised
what that meant thate it meant the
Dutchmen were cutting us off from
any chance of relief. The raiding party
came on at that minute, iney were
heaving hand-grenades down into our
trenches before we Knew wnai iney
were about. One exploded near me.
I didn't think. I waa nurt, so
a-rabbed my gun. I started to get up
and then found my leg was busted,

HI neighbor had a broKen writ.
