ROOSEVELT Three Times a Week Old Lady Hobbles Quarter of Mile With Fresh Supply of Flowers. TWO OF OWN SONS KILLED j - Wooden Sign Points Way to Roosevelt Plot, at Edge of War-beaten French Village. Charnbray. France, Nov. ,11. (I. N. 8.) A wrinkle-faced, toothless old Frenchwoman, Madame Marchand, has taken it upon herself tc tend the grave of Lieutenant Quentln Roose velt, which 'lies Just at the edge of the war-battered village. It Is nearly a quarter of a mile from Madame Marehand's tumbledown home NEURALGIA MEANS THAT NERVES ARE UNDERNOURISHED The Blood Carries' Food to the Nerves, but Fails When It Is Thin and Weak. The only way that aie nerves receive nourishment is through the blood. When a person becomes anemtc and the blotfd Is thin and pale the nerves are starved and the only way In which 'they can de mand more nourishment Is by the sen sation of pain. ' Neuralgia has been properly described as "the cry ,of starved nerves." The logical and reasonable way to correct neuralgia is to build up the blood so that It can carry nourishment to the nerves, as was done in the case of this Oregon school teacher "Nerves overtaxed by arduous school work revolted several years ago and caused me many days and nights of suf fering," says Miss Birdie N. McCarty of No. 685 Ainsworth avenue, Portland. Ore. "There was an almost continuous pain In the pit of my stomach and jt seemed as though there was a big lump there. T ate very little for I didn't have any appetite to speak of. I had neu ralgia in my face and darting pains across my temples. These pains gener ally resulted in severe headaches. "A friend one day urged me to try Dr. Williams'- Pink Pills and I took four boxes with such excellent results that I shall never be without the remedy in the future. The pain disappeared from my stomach In & few weeks, my appetite Improved and I no longer have neu ralgla'or headaches. A fhort time aeo I had an attack of rheumatism and tried the remedy a second time and the re sults were again favorable, for the rheu matism left me. I have great confidence In Dr. Williams' IMnk Pills and can strongly recommend the remedy." Dr. Williams- Pink Pills are sold by all druggists or direct from the Pr. Williams Medicine Co.. Schenectady. X. Y on receipt of price, 60 cents per box. Write for the free booklet. "Diseases of the Nervous System." Adv. the rim of ground where young Roosevelt fell In aerial combat with the Germans in July of 118. But two or three times a week the old ladv hobbles down the road with a handful of fresh flowers, throws away the old ones, brushes away the dirt that may have blown against the wooden cross at the head of the grave, bows her head In prayer and turns back, to her home. TWO SOS." WAS VICTIMS Two of her own sons vre killed in the war, she said. The grave of one, who died near Chateau-Thierry, is near by, and once every few week she makes Ta. pilgrimage to It. The other fell in the Somme fighting, she believes, as he was reported missing. "I like to think that wherever he lies Home tender hands are caring for my little boy's grave." she said. For that reason, In memory of my son. I am going to care for the grave of this American boy who died to far from home as long as I live." The French have set ' up a wooden sign pointing the way to the Roosevelt plot, which is just off a slightly used road outside the village. When the ;r mans found the young aviator's body, they buried -it and set up a wooden cross of identification. The first American to reach Charr.ery supplanted this with an ather cross, and later a wooden fence was built around the grave. SPOT WHERE ROOSEVELT FELL The stone marker planted by the 352d engineers lies a few yards northeast of the grave on the exact spot where Roosevelt fell. It was badly damaged by the wheel of a heavy wheat wagon which ran across its face, in the dark ness, afrd, being of very soft stone, can certainly not withstand the erosion of the elements but a few years. Unless something is done in the meanwhile to erect a permanent memorial, nothing will remain to mark the spot where Colonel Koosevelt's youngest son died.
