Realizing that the American
troops might be on the lookout for
him. the major decided to return to
France this time In the guise of an
enlisted man. The crossing, of
course, had to be made secretely.
Arrangements were made by the
leader for a friendly Spaniard to act
as guide. When a suitable night
came, with the guide's assistance, the
major started to cross over into
France.
It was a miserable night and so
dark that It was impossible for the
major to see the guide five feet In
front of him. The rain came down In
torrents and the mountain trail was
soon turned into a rarinr brook.
Slipping and sliding around in the
darkness most of the time with the
water up to their knees, and in im
minent danger of falling down the
side of the mountain, they finally
made the crossing.
When daylight came, the major
once more stood on French soil. Hid
ing by day and traveling on frelcht
trains by night, he succeeded in
reachmz Paris: and there, eacaninr
the notice of the military police, he
made his war to the hotel whtra th
other American officers in the en
terprise were awaiting him.
The major was greeted with great
acclaim for the others were begin

wrong with their Diana. He rave
them a detailed explanation of the
situation as it had shaped itself since
he had fled from the prison with the
German, and told them that to fur

Old Soldier Testifies to Won

Constipation, Stomach Trou

National Home, Wis., May 12. 19
"When I commenced taking Number
40 For The Blood, I was suffering
with chronic constipation of a good
many years standing, which finally
developed into stomach trouble
which got so bad I was unable to eat
anything that did not cause great
suffering. I tried a good many doc
tors as well as everything I colud
hear of that was recommended for
my complaint. I was also troubled
with catarrh of long standing and I
had dropsical swellings in my feet
and ankles which the doctors said
was caused by a weak heart. I had
about given up hope of being much
better when I saw an ad. of your No.
40, in a country paper and conclud
ed to try It. I felt so much better
after taking one bottle that I sent di
rect to you for three more bottles. I
have taken about two and a half bot
tles and while not feeling entirey
well. I feel by continuing the use of
40. I will get to feel as well as I
could reasonably expect for a man of
my age. 75 years. I hardly know
how to estimate the Yalue of the ben
efit I have already received from the
use of No. 40, and cheerfully recom
ment It to any one suffering as I
was." Morris Law. Witness to signa

The next move was for the cap

Germans Into believing that they
