WE HANDLE NOTHING TO

The plain reason are not offering our goods at half price is that
every article you purchase at our store is guaranteed to be
100 per cent value. We can sell only cheap articles
at a cheap price. Houses that advertise goods
at half their real value must, in the
nature of things, make up the short

. the article sold. They "rob Peter to
pay Paul" and you are as apt to be "

NOT A SACRIFICE
It is well to get a correct line
on the various calls that are be
ing made and will be made on
our purses before the war ends
and in the first place we must
get the distinction between giv

ment has not asked and proba
bly will net ask for one cent of
gift money. The extent of its
call is for loan3 and for loans
on which it will pay fair rates of
interest The man or woman

which we usually employ the
word. At the most this action
entails but a temporary inconven

different channels from those in
which We are accustomed to use
them. . In the end we'have the
full worth of our money in the
soundest securities on earth the
promise of the U. S. government
to pay. 'Now our government
wants to know before June 28,

CHAPTER XXVI.
All Quirt (D en the Western Front
At brigade headquarters I happened
to overhear a conversation between our
O. O. C. (general officer commanding)
and the divisional commander. From
this conversation I learned that we
were to bombard the German lines for
eight days, and on the first of July the
"big push" was to commence.
In a few days orders were Issued to
that effect,, and It was common prop
erty all along the line.
On the afternoon of the eighth day ot
oar "strafelng," Atwell and I were sit
ting In the front-line trench smoking
fags and making out our reports of the
previous night's tour of the trenches,
which we had to tarn In to headquar
ters the following day, when an order
was passed down tho trench that Old
Pepper requested twenty volunteers to
go over on a trench raid that night to
try and get a few German prisoners foi
Information purposes. I Immediately
volunteered for this Job, and shook
bands with Atwell, and went to the
rear to give my name to the officers In
charge of the raiding party.
I was accepted, worse luck.
At 0:45 that night we reported to the
brigade headquarters dugout to receive
Instructions from Old Pepper.
After reaching this dugout we lined
up In a semicircle around him, and he
addressed ns as follows :
"All I want yon boys to do Is to go
over to the German lines tonight, sur
prise them, secure a couple of prison
ers, and return immediately. Our ar
tillery has bombarded that section of
the line for two days and personally I
believe that that part of the German
trench Is nnoccupled, so Just get a cou
ple of prisoners and return as quickly
as possible."
The sergeant on my right, In an un
dertone, whispered to me:
"Say, Tank, how are we going to get
a couple of prisoners ir the old rooi
thinks 'personally that that part of the
trench la unoccupied.' sounds kind of
Oshy, doesn't It mster
I had a funny sluktng sensation In
my stomach, and my tin bat felt as If
It weighed about a ton and my enthusi
asm was tneltlng away. Old Pepper
must have beard the sergeant speak
because be turned In his direction and
in a thundering voice asked s
What did yotj sayr
The sergeant with a scarlet look on
his face and his knees trembling,
smartly saluted and answered :
"Nothing, air."
Old Pepper eald :
Well, don't say It so loudly the nest
time."
Then Old Pepper contlnned :
"In this section of the German
trenches there are two or three ma
chine guns which our artillery, In the
last two or three days, has been un
able to tape. These guns command tho
sector where two ot our communica
tion trenches Join the front line, and
us the brigade Is to go over the top to
morrow morning I want to capture two
nr three men from these guns' crews,
and from tbein I may be able to obtnln
valuable Information as to the exnrt
location of the guns, and our artillery
will therefore be able to demnllxh them
la-fore the attack, and thus prevent
oar losing a lot of men while using
these communication trenches to bring
up re-enforcements."
These were the Instructions be gave
us:
Take off your Identification disks.
strip your uniforms of all numcrnls,
Insignia, etc., leave your papers with
your captains, because I don't want the
Roches to know what regiments are
against them as this would be valimhh'
Information to them In our attack to
morrow and I don't wont any of you
to be taken alive. What I want Is twd
prisoners and If I get them I have a
way which will make them divulge
all necessary Information ns to their
guns. Ton have your choice of two
weapons you may enfry your'per-
suaders' or your knuckle knives,, and
each man will arm himself with four
Mills bombs, these to be used only In
case of emergency."
A perminder Is Tommy's nickname
for a club carried by the bombers. It
is about two feet long, thin at one end.
and very thick at the other. The thick!
end Is Studded with sharp steel spike;
while through the center of the club
there Is a nine-Inch lead bar, to give
It weight and balance. When you get
a prisoner all you have to do Is Just
stick this club up In front of him, and
believe me, the prisoner's patriotism
for "Deutschland ueber Alios" fadis
away and he very willingly obeys the
orders of his captor. If, however, tho
prisoner gets hgh-toned and refuses to
follow you, simply "persuade" him by
first removing his tin hat, and then
well, the use of the lead weight In the
persuader Is demonstrated, and Tom
my looks for another prisoner.
The knuckle knife is a dagger affair,
the blade of which is about eluht
Inches long with a heuvy steel guurd
over the grip. This guard U studded
with steel projections. At night In a
trench, which Is only ubout three to
four feet wide. It makes a very handy
weapon. One punch In the face gen
erally shatters a man's Jaw and you
can get him with the knife us he goes
down.
Then we had what we called our
"come-alongs." These are strands of
barbed wire about three feet long,
made Into a noose at one end; at the
other end, the barbs are cut off and
Tommy slips bis wrist through a loop
to get a good grip on the wire, If the
