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

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

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.
Men Get Employment

Marshfleld, Nov. 11., The heavy rains
