'HIS INTENTION Saving Guns by Hand. Amsterdam, Dec. 10 ----A Cologne Gespatch in Friday's Rhenish West- phalian Gazette of Essen says that Cologne has been presenting a strange Bpectacie. Recently large numbers of discharged soldiers, youths and even school children, stimulated by offers of rewards for saving guils from the Entente troops of occupation by getting the artillery pieces to the right bank of the Rhine, were harnessing themselves to gum carriages bearing guns and dragging them to safety. When Chief of Police . Phillips, Smith's Falls, examined the body of John Stratford, formerly of Harlem, found dead 1% his pockets of the dead man. Spread It Thicker, a.

She was no different from most jealous wives, took the greater pains to hide her feelings ipstead of doing as most young wives are prone to do, and "spilling over" as Brian expressed it one day when talking of a wonsan he knew. It would perhaps have made for her peace of mind had she "spill- ad" a kittle in Heu of holding back all her emotion, and her thoughts. time. After her Washington trip, more so than ever..

That he did all this without in any way approaching Ruth, or with- out letting her feel his thoughtfulness obtrusive, proved the strength of his love for her. Dimily, Ruth sensed he was trying to make her comfortable. "He Is trying to make me forget wihiat he said to me, that day his wealthy to me," she said to herself. Then: "He didn't mean, he said.

She felt piqued---just a lit- tle, that Mandel should so soon have found out his mistake. And she re- sented his ability to dismiss her from this thoughits--as she judged by his actions he had. That night the rent was due. Ruth stopped on the way home to pay it, and found Brian waiting for her when she reached the apartment, "1 stopped to pay the rent, dear.

You are so sorry for the soldiers, all the time talking of how hard it is for them, and all, that T should think you would be ghad you had the money to pay instead of being in those horrid trenches with them, fighting for your life. "" Ruth had purposely said: "glad you had the money to pay." "A man doesn't have to pay rent in the trenches, neither does his wife 'have to throw it in his face if she does pay dt for him---he's too far away from her." Ruth stood still, very still. It had not been Brian's words, as much as his manner, which caused her heart to almost stop beating, and that suf- focating feeling to make her put her hand to her 'throat. It was as if Brian were seeking an excuse. More than once their clash on the eternal- ly sickenig subject of money had led {to a hot quarrel. This quiet, caustic | Brian was a new species to her.
