(United Proas staff correspondent.) Salonicn, Oct. 31. (By mail.) The four jumps from Paris to tho Salonika front take three weeks; they are full of waits, interest and excitement, of submarine dodging, sightseeing. Per haps you'd like to take the trip. John McOutcheon, the American cartoonist, and James H. Hare, veteran wnr pho-togrttiher,-aro in the party. Very well! It's 10 at 'night in the P. L. M. station in Paris and you're climbing into the sleeping car. You've been worrying, Four days ago you re served berths and paid a bonus to your hotel for securing them. As tho train pulls out you discover that the car is practically our private car. Few folks are traveling toward Italy in war time. You ask the porter for a detachable lamp for your berth. "Haven't you got any extra ones!" . 'Whyt" "This is war time." "That's silly," you say angrily. "Say! I used to run ou the Orient al express from Vienna to Constanti nople," says tho French porter, who is also conductor. "Didn't I use to see you hanging around Vienna!" "Never been, in Vienna," you lie. But what he has said cools you down; he's practically telling you that if you don't shut up about the berth lamp he'll charge you with being an Aus trian spy. Hii's got the drop on you; you're nothing but a poor, helpless' for eigner in France in war timo. So you go to bed without tho lamp; no chance of reading yourself to sleep this night. There's a dining car hitched on for breakfast. But there' o nothing but coffee und bread; no eggs, no bacon "it's the war!" There's no diner for lunch. Same reason. For Buprter you jump off at a station, buy a cold chicken, pickles and bottled wutor and get the crumbs all over the carpet of your compartment. The second morning you're in Rome. Your trunk doesn't show up. It's back in Paris. Same reason as no eggs. Preparedness The Vital Factor not alone in affairs of the Nation, but with the health of every citizen. One seldom knows when the common enemy, sickness, in one form or another, is about to strike; and the best form of preparedness is to keep body and brain healthy. Active brains and vigorous bodies Vre the result of right living food plays a big part. FOOD made of whole wheat and malted barley,supplies all the bone- and brain-building, nerve- and muscle-making elements of the grains, including the vital salts- phos phate of potash, etc, often lacking in the diet of many, but imperative for bound ing good health. Grape-Nuts is easily digested comes ready for table directly the germ-proof, moisture-and dust-proof packet is opened. With good milk or cream Grape-Nuts supplies complete nourishment. A ration of Grape-Nuts each day is a safe play for health, and There's a Reason sold by Grocers everywhere.

KAFOURY BROS. At the American embassy you find Ambassador Thomas Nelson Page greatly worried as to tho welfnro of his son-in-law, a major in tho British army. A British transport has been sunk near Salonica; the chances are his .son-in-law was on it, but there is no way to learn. Will you carry letters to Salonica for the mujor and try to learn something as to Ins welfare? It's an errand you gladly assume. You're going right into tho fog of war and you may meet the major there if the ambassador's fears are not well found ed. There's a day lay- ever in 'Rome and ; you go to see the ruins of the torum.
