He Has Had Many Narrow Escapes From Death, * The military correspondent of the London Times, describing, his recent tour of the Italian front, says: ' "Italy is fortunate in having at her head at this eritical hour of her destinies a King who is a Soldier born and bred. It is a common say- ing that the King of Italy is homesick when he is absent from the army, and it is certain his Majesty spends every hour he can spare from state affairs with his troops. He wears on his breast the medal and ribbon given only to those who have been at the front a year and though he deprecates | any allusion to' the fact, it is true that | ; he is constantly 'in the firing line. 'He has had many narrow escapes, and is personally known to the whole army, who love to see him in their midst. ohne "I have not found any officer of his army who has a better, more "iin< timate or more accurate knowledge "That's just the matter," said Dora, "T'am mor'n fall." * Soren to-Sun, Dustand Wind d kly relieved by Murine | ZY © Sten vos. just Eye Comfo i Your Druggist's 50c per Bottle. § | SalveinTubes25c, ForBaok ithe Druggists or Murine Eye Remedy Father's Good Rumor. | "Father went off in a good humor this morning," observed the daughter i.
