Trobiihly. when they got home, they would atrlke off a niednl for themsnlveii In honor of the visit. Then, ton. there were nlwny Hun anldler on lenve or off duty, w ho mnde It a point to pay u a visit, and though 1 do not think they wero a bud a the civ vie, especially the women, they were hnd enough. Wo hnd one bucket In ench barrnoka, and aa theae bucket were ued for both wanning nnd drinking, they were alwaya dirty. We boiled the water when we wnnhed the clothe, to get rid of the cootie, and thnt left a aettllng In It thnt looked jut like red 1nM4 X7t hnrl fit tha tvnrjiH -f intn . h'.n n.ui,ia nf tha hnrM,.v. nnA for a while we drnnk It.

In Hie trenches, hut they wore regular iiiiillyrolilli' compared to the pet we IiihI In the prison cump. After we bolted our clothe we would he free from them for tint more limn two liourn, mid then they would come buck, with re-enforcements, thirsting for vengeance. Thn enmp nt NeustroUts was sur rounded by hlg thn,'. which were kept Just outside the barbed win. We had them going all the time. Every once In a while, some fellow would imikc an awful racket, and the next thing i wo knew, there whs Frlti coining like a ihot, with musket nt hie hip, Just nn they enrry them In n charge, und Mowing whistles nt each other until they wero blue In the face.

' ' - ' i ever anw litem run, except when tha Foreign I.eglon waa on their hreli nt Iuiuiuilc. When they got up to the dog, they would first tnlk In them nnd then kick them, nnd nfter thnt, they would rest their r I tics on tho wire mid jfcll "Zitruck I nt ua., We all enjoyed thU Innocent pntlmo very much, and wc were glnd they hnd the 4log. There were mime thing the Hunt (lid thnt you Just could not explain. Fur Instance, one of the Rumtluns walked out of the kuche, aa we were paxlng, nnd we heard a bang! and the Ruaainn keeled over and went west. Now, we had not done anything and the other Rualnna nuld he hnd behaved himself, worked hard and had never had npy trouble. They Just killed him, and that la all there was to It. But not one of ua could figure out why. After we had been at Neuatrellti for three weeka, they drilled na out of the cninp to a railway nation, and atoo.d ua In the anow for four hours waiting for the train. We were ex hausted and began falling, one by one, and ench time one of ua fell, the entries would yell, "Nlcht krankl" and give ua the rifle butt. We had our choice of standing up and dying or fnlllng down nnd being killed, and tt wai a fine choice to have to make. The cars finally pulled In, and as usual, the windows were smashed, the doora open, nnd the compartments Just packed with snow. When we saw this, we knew we were going to get worse treatment, even, than we hnd benn getting, and many of us wanted to die. It hnd not been unusual for some of the men to tell the Germans to shoot thorn too, and It seems aa though It wns nlwnys a man who wanted to live ho 8t " and went went, JIwwr. nl of m i nearly got killed hfin we renc,led Wittenberg. When th train atopped there, we aaw big B"nlond of allced bread on the eta- '"B ""J B"d we bU ,,w Jat tnnA aa we culd, and tnen ' ut wnen ot ner- w that there were 'our entrl" Brdlng It and four women u""'n ,ut to the German ,"1(,leri- Tn wouI t 8l "y. M course' . So we ttood around and watched the Bona Mt It while they and tha laughed at us, and pretended that they were starving and would groan and rub their stomachs and say. "Nlrhts in essen," to each other, and then gnb a big hunk of bread and at It What w did not aay to tbem was very little Indeed. We were cer tainly wild If any men ever wera. Then some of us said we met go ing to get some of that bread If wo went wrat for It. 8o we started a ilght, and while they were attending to some of ua, the others grabbed and bid all the bread they could. They rousted ua back Into the cars and we were Jut starting to divide up the brsad when they caught us with It and took It away. Wa were wilder than ever then, but we could not do anything. It got colder after we left Witten berg, and the snow blew Into the cars through the wlndowa and doors until we were afraid to sleep for fear of f recti ng. It waa the worst night I have ever seen, and the coal bunkers on the Tarrowdule seemed like a pal ace compared to the compartments, because we could at least move around In the ship, while In the train we could not move at all, and were packed no close that wa could not even stretch our legs and arms. Some of the men did die. but not In my compitrtment, though most of us were frost-bitten about the face. We thought that night would never end, but day come finally, and though It seemed to get colder and colder, we did not mind It so much. At about eleven that morning, we arrived at a place culled Mlnden and anw a prison camp there Just a stockade near the tracks with the hoys out In the open. We waved to them, and they waved back and gave a cheer-oh or two. We felt sorry for them, because we knew wc were not going to that enmp, and from what little we aaw, we knew we could not lie going to a worse place thnn they were In. I shHll never for get Mlnden, because It was here thnt I received ihe only cigarette I had while I was In Gentiuny. Mltulen la quite n railway center, I guess, n ml when we pulled Into the depot, we saw many troops going to the front or coming buck. A nt nil Important German rullwuy stations, there wus a Bed Cross booth on the platform, with German girls handing out hurley coffee und other thlnga to the German soldiers. I saw a Inrgc shanty on tho platform, with a Bed Cross painted over tho door. I snw thn girl giving hurley coffee to the soldiers, ami 1 thought I would novo a try nt It und nt leant be polite enough to give the girls a chance of refusing me. I wn refuxed oil right, but they were so nasty about It that 1 put down my lieml nml let something slip. 1 do not rcincmlicr Just whut It wna, hut It wn not very compliment ary, I guess. Anyhow, I did not think nnyone near there understood Eng lish, hut evidently some one heard me. who did, fur I got tin awful hoot that ttindcd me ten or twelve feet nwny. I fell mi my hiimls nnd knees, nud nhout o .viird nwny I saw a liurette el uli. I dived for It like n limn fulling on a foothnll, nnd when I came up tht stub wna sufely In my pocket. And It ftiiyed there until I rein-lied liiihnen nml had a chance to Us;ht It behind the harrnekk. If any of the other men hnd smelled real tobacco, they would prohnhty have murdered me. nnd I could not have blutned them for It. That was the flrt nml last clgnretti I got In Germany, nml you can be lieve mo when I sny thnt I enjoyed tt. There wns not much to it, hut I smoked It until there wtis not enmip'i left to hold In my month, and then I used whnt wns left nnd mixed It with the hnrk thnt we mnde cigarettes nut of. Incidentally, this hurl; was gre:t stuff. I do not know what kind m tree It wn from, but It erv'd the purpose. Whenever a fellow wanted to smoke and lit one of loesr hi'.rk (ignreties, , few puffs were enough. Tha Flrat and Last Cigarette. He did not want to smoke again for some time afterward, and like as not, he did not want to eat either. They were therefore very valuable. i o oe co'.ii.niii-ti To Keep Awaka In Church.

Plunge them Into a cold bath, then pack. Cover with a sirup made of 14 ouncea of sugar to one gallon of water and process quart Jars 12 minutes. Other sirups can be used in place of a part of the sugar usually required. This method of canning apples la not economical, because the apple la Juicy and needs no water added. A better method, perhaps, Is to make a sauce out of the apples. This may be done by steaming them until tender and passing thera through the sieve. Allow one cupful of sugar to each gal lon of pulp. Reheat .until the sugar la dissolved, pack hot, In sterilised Jars and process quart Jnrs 12 minutes. United States Department of Agricul ture.
