CATARRH CANNOT BE CURED
with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the dis
ease. Catarrh is a local disease,
greatly influenced by constitutional
conditions, and in order to cure it you
must take an internal remedy. Hall’s
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally
and acts through the mood on the mu
cous surfaces of the system. Hall's
Catarrh Medicine was prescribed by
one of the best physicians in this
country for years. It is composed of
some of the best tonics known, com
bined with some of the best blood pur
ifiers. The perfect combination of
the ingredients in Hall’s Catarrh Med
icine is what produces such wonder
ful results in catarrhal conditions.

Paris, Dec.—Miss Margaret Wil
son, eldest daughter of the man ac
claimed as “the one international fig
ure to the Peace conference,” stood in
th citadel of Verdun against which
the kaiser’s eldest son, the Crown
Prince, shattered his legions of auto
cracy, and there she signed her name
in the livre d or—the Gold Book. It
was a fitting finale to the great dra
ma of Verdun, this daughter of dem
onacracy’s champion, standing in the
stronghold which militarism’s basest
exponent had vainly sought. Later
she invaded what had been the Ger
man headquarters.
Miss Wilson arrived at Verdun af
ter days of motoring through war
wrecked France, where she, as a Y.
M. C. A. entertainer, sang as often
as four concerts a day in “Y” huts, in
hospitals, in the open and to thous
ands of American fighters. Com
mander Sarot, oi .he French garrison,
personally escorted the president’s
daughter to all places of interest in
Verdun.
These included the cathedral, the
ruins and finally the citadel which
had stood like a rock through all the
terrible siege. Here Miss Wilson
signed her name in the livre d’or, her
signature following that of Sir James
M. Barrie, the playwright, the last
preceding famous person to inspect
the city.
The predominating feature of the
week at the front came at the close
of the day spent at Verdun. The par
ty left there and traveled over the
road that skirts the right bank of
the House to Convensoye. From a
height that commanded a wide sweep
n-f rmiTitru thpv vipwed flip nicked di
visions of the American army on the
first lap of their journey to occupy
the frontier towns of Germany. Ev
ery road for miles around was filled
with marching men, guns, caissons
and all the impediments of war. The
plain was lighted up by numerous
bonfires and the glow from hundreds
of field kitchens where r giments had
stopped for their evening mess. On
one side the sun was dipping behind
an embankment of clouds while on the
other the moon rose in pale splendor.
Thrilled over the beauty of the
scene Miss Wilson asked that she be
allowed to mess with men of an artil
lery regiment. Her request was
quickly met and the members of her
party with mess time in their hands
waited their turn in line. The menu
that night consisted of “slum” made
of “com willy” and bread pudding,
Uo ^oundtion of which was army
hard-tack. Hot coffee was a part of
the meal not overlooked by the pres
ident’s daughter.
After supper, the folding organ
was set up by the side of a camp fire.
A rustic gasoline can was turned on
end and served as Mrs. David’s stool
and: the flames from the flickering
logs lighted up the music and spread
a warm glow over the front row of
men of the regiment who gathered in
a circle around the singer.
On the road from Souilly to Dun
sur-meuse next day, Miss Wilson con
versed with released French, Italian
and Russian prisoners returning
from German prison camps, their
faces haggard, their clothees tattered.
She was affected visibly by their ap
pearance and words.
At the extreme point of the Amer- i
ican advance Miss Wilson was met by
Gens. Hines and Allen, whom she
knew. Gen. Allen introduced the
president’s daughter to the Alsatian
civilian crowd, who burst forth into
prolonged cheering. A little girl j
stepped forth and kissed Miss Wilson, i
At Stenay, Miss Wilson visited the j
Chateau where the German Crown j
Prince made his headquarters when
at the front. That night Miss Wil- |
son’s party dined with Lieut.-Gen.
Liggett at Sottilly. Concerts were
given in the wards of the hospitals
there, as well as in the school house.
Colonel Milling and officers of the
aviation camp entertained with a din
ner and dance, at which Miss Wilson
was presented with trophies, including i
a German anti-tank gun, a magneta '
from a German airplane and an avia- j
tor’s leather coat with colonel’s insig-1
nia on its shoulder straps.
From there the party drove to the ‘
Argonne forrest, w'here the Anreri- j
cans did such valient fighting; thence |
to the Champagne battlefield, through i
Suippes to Rheimes where a pleasant.
surprise awaited Miss Wilson. She
met, quite by chance, her father’s;
closest adviser, Col. E. M. House.
Through the concierge’s courtesy, j
they were enabled to inspect the in
terior of the shell-battered cathedral, j
that greatest monument to kultur.
-Miss Wilson carried away a 'small
piece of broken glass of a cathedral
window which she picked from the
wreckage to keep as a souvenir.
Returning to Paris, Miss Wilson
reported to the Y. M. C. A. for fur
ther concert tours under Red Triangle
auspices, after a w'eek’s wonderful
motor-swing around the most historic^
parts of France.
