Prisoners of Germans Got Very
Bad Treatment:
Some of Those Exchanged Tell
Awful Tales.
Nora J Mir
London Cable: --In describing the
arrival at Rotterdam tsf 100 British
who had been incaptuatated, and are
on their way home from German
camps, the correspondent of the Daily
Mail says:
-The soldiers were wee:anted be the
leach caficials and the Dutch civillaus
cheered them and leaded them wtth
OM et pipes, tobacco, eigarc, cheers -
late and othee luxuries, all of which
wet' wrapped in the Dutch colors.
Many ef the soldiers wept at the kind-
nesses ehown them. All were severe-
ly wounded, und the injuries of many
were terrible. eleny of the men were
o» crutches.
"All of the prisoners.were most an:c-
lew to tenow hcw the Many tlerinall
prisoners were treated in England, as
their guards had told them that the
prisoners had been .abominably treat-
ed. The Britieh prisonera thought
this was the reason for their rough ;

treatment in the German camps. Oa° I
"We were treated all right at -the -
hospital, especially by the nurses, bet
the felleWs in. the concentration camp
had an awfnl time, for on the slighteet
complaint they were kicked, while for
a serious breach ef discipline they !
were tied to a post for hours. The
food, which was chiefly beans, was of 1.
poor quality and small in quantity. I
The clothes were rags. When th e
men protested that they were stare- !
ing they were told: "Your friends in
England have ent off our food sup-
ply." 7
"This Man confirmed the previous
reports that the 'French prisoners were
treated in the most friendly' manner.
in etriking contrast to the treatment

After ibis there came 4 hill in the
Wer -storm. The allied armies were be-
fore Sebastopol, And the siege threa-
tened to be a long ,one.
Meaawhile, in February, Parliament
met •
The Duke and Duchess of Cheviot,
with all the rest of che great world,
came up to Lontioa for the SWUM.
Lord Wellrose resumed the labors
of humanity to which he had devoted
his time niad, talents, • -
Lady Hinclo Moray was again the
belle 'of Belgravla, and generally pro-
nounced more beautiful than ever.
And „this was certainly true. She
was more beautiful than ever, because
she was lumpier than ever. The light
of a pure: and peaceful love beamed
in her face, for she loved the noble
young Bari ot Wellrose, and she knew
that he loved.her in return.
Ite had never told her so, but all
his self-control had failed to conceal
tee bliesful truth from her eyes.
How he etruggled with his passion'.
How he told himself, day and night,
that he should be Wse to every prin-
ciple of honor and manhood should he
suffer his affections to stray frornshis
betrothed. • •
He avoided Made as much its pos-
sible, though, as she was his mother's
guest at Ctfirefot House that season,
common courtsy required him to be
frequently in her society.
He would have left London to escape
tenmtation, Dad not his parliamentary
duties kept lam in town.
He wrote to Suzy by every mail, and
told her all the news of the day, and
sent her papers, magazines, -new honks
and mew music.
But his letters were no louger the
ardent outpourings of passionate lave
they had once been. They were as
coolly friendly and matter-of-fact as
her own had always been.
And, meanwhile, the months slipped
away, and bronat near the time•when
the allied armies should achieve their
great triumph.
CHAPTER XXXT.
In September came the most im-
portant news. The allied armies had
taken Sebastopol, and the Crimean
war was virtually at an end.
This news found the Duke and
Duchess of Cheviot, with the Earl or
Wellrose and the Ladies Hester and
Eva Douglas, at Cheviot Castle, where
they were spending the early autumn.
White they were still discussing the
great victory, a private letter arrived
from Dr. Kinlock to the Earl of Well -
rose.
After describing the taking of the
city, he went on to write:
"Your brave kinsman, Lieutenant
Douglas, has kept -his -word. With his
own hand, he planted the colors on
tbe walls of Sebastopol, _ But, all! in
doing this, in the face of a muvderous
fire, he has been severely wounded
by a bullet through the left lobe of the
lungs. He has been recommended for
promotion, but it Is doubtful whether
he will live to Kota, by it. Certainly
he will not, if he stays here, I have
advised him to be sent home with the
invalid troops, who are to sail for
England in a few days."
• Lord Wellrose groaned as he Iaid
this letter aside; and half las joy in
the great victory was turned to grief.
And even thus, throughout the land,
the public rejoicing at the national
triumph was tempered by the private
mourning of those who beloved ones
had bought the victory with their
blood.
- In a few days came another letter
from Dr, Kinlock, in which he wrote:
"Young. Douglas has received bis
promotion. He is now a captain, but
not yet assigagd to any company. .1
fear he never will be. He is sinking
slowly, but surely. Ali his desire,
now that the war may be said to
be over, is to get back to England,
Lo press your band once more and
die. If I were not hoping from day
to day that his desire may be granted
and that he may be sent home, I
should even entreat your lordship to
come out here and ccimfort the dying
boy, whose ,wish Itis to see your face.
"I will go," said Lord, Wellrose to
himself: then, suddenly recollecting
all the circumstances, he pelded: "But
I might mesa aim. Ahl he might be
on his way Mime while I should be
on my way out. I raust wait for an-
other letter from Kinlock, I suppose.
And Douglas is so ill1 be may _dee 131
As these troubled thoughts passed
through his mind, .he turned over it
leaf of his letter and read a para-
graph dated a day later, and which
was as follows:
* * I had written so far when
I received a message summoning Inc
to headquarters. I immediately re -
Ported there, and instantly received
orders to go to Euglaud, by the Re-
lief, in charge of a party of in-selid
troops, Captain Douglas goes with
us. 1 am extremely glad of this, as
I shalt be able to attend personally
en him during the voyage. We sail
for Southampton the day after to-
morrow. Ro• you may expect' us very
soon after the receipt of this letter,
lf you do not see us before.
"And so he.is coming home, and I
shall see him again, poor, brave, gen-
tle boy! I thank the Lord tor this.
And who shalt say that home air
and kind friends and good nursing
may not save his life and restore hia
health'," said the earl to himself, as
, folded this letter and laklit aside.
Then Ile thug for bis valet, who
immediatele_ Appeared.
"Perkins, pack any portmanteau,
and order the trap for four o'clotk,
to tette us to the railway station. We
leave for London by the five -fort -
trate," said the earl, as he passed out
of las room to notify his mother of his
sudden journey.
He reached Southatepton itz time
kf s .
He took apartments at the Lord
Adzeiral. And utter a refreshing bath
and change of dress, and a good
breakfast, he set out to 'walk clown
to the docks, to inquire for the ex -
Ducted ship.
Ile WaS. Inere fortunate 'than he
could have hoped to be. The ship had
just arrived, and was at anchor about
• half g tulle front the land.
• A steam tehder was already leav-
ing the *bore to bring her passengers
to land.
By precenee of mind and prompti-
tude in passing a few shillings to the
inert who were withdraviing the gang-
, Plank, Lord Wellrote micceeded hi

ment, and was soon attaining eat to -

Lord Wellrose, Caen his Youth alh
had been accustomed to sights of
misery, fi his frequent personal min-
istrations to the wretched. But , he
bad never seen anything like this.
And he grew sick and dizzy as be
gazed,
Soon the bustle of transferring
these poor wrecks of manhood from
the ship to the tender attracted his
attention.
At length the form for which he tso
ertgerly watched appeared. Teat, oh,
how cbanged!
Was this man in the fiesb, or' a
dtsembodied spirit, that approached,
leaning on the arnt of the Middle-
aged surgeon, Dr, Kinlock?
Benuy was clothed iii his old war -
worn, battle -Stained uniforru tbat
hung loosely upon his emaciated -fig-
ure. His face was so thin that it
had taken an almoet triangular shape
from the broad foreheaddown the
hollow cheeks to the sharp chin. Tits
complexion was so bloodless that pale
would not describe it; it was a clear,
fair, transpareut bluish-wbite. His
large blue eves, sunk in their
deep, shadowy hollows, seethed larger,
bluer and brighter than before, His
Olden hair had faded to a silvery
fairnees. And in a word, If Benny
was dying, he Wasa beautiful In
death as is a setting star.
So thought the Earl of Wellrose, as
he epee' gently forward and took the
wan hand, and said, with suppressed
emotion'
"Oh, my dear Benjamin! I thank
Clod that you have lived to get home:
And liow e will bone that geod air
and good nursing will restore your
health."
The lime of the young soldier grew
ra.dient with joy, as he grasped the
hand of the earl between both hIi
own, exelaiming:
"Yee, thank God! I thank God that
I live to see you once more: Now I
am willing to die,
"We will not talk of death, We will
not have you die. You have every -
tiling te live for now, Benjamin," said
tbe earl. •
But a violent fit of entighing seized
tho invalid, and he turned and crept
away to the aide of the ship, and
sank down upon a seat to recover
himself.
"And now, Dr. Kinlock, yelcorne
home. And much thanks for your de-
votion to my—cousin, here," said the
young earl, cordially shaking bands
with the surge.on, whom, however, in
the Mat moments of meeting Benny,
he bad forgotten.
"Thanks, my lord. f am very ham
rnyeelf in the thotight that I have
brought Captain•Donglas safe to.Eng-
land. And for more reasons tban
one," addea the surgeon, so emphati-
cally that the young earl 'looked in-
quiringly at him, as though he would
have °hiked: .
"Whet do you Mean?" ' •
"He is your cough', you say, MY
lord," remarked the surgeon, in an-
swer to the unuttered question.
"All the Douglases are cousins, you
know,' ! replied the earl, -with a smile.
'Like the Stuarts and the Canm-
belle, and the other Scottish clans.
Bet that is all, my Lord?' inquired
the doctor, in a low voice.
• "That is all, so far as 1 anow," re-
plied the earl, in a grave and some-
what surprised and questioning- man-
ner.
"Then, my lord," said Dr. Kinleek,
solemnly, "I have something to tell
you that, I fear, will startle your
lordship considerably. But not now;
not now! See, my patient is recover -
Mg himself, Ah, poor fellow! He is
so sensitive! When he gets hit° those
violent fits of coughing he sbrinks
from observation like a wounded ani-
ma . l3ut here he comes," added
surgeon, as he arose and gave Benny
his arm to support him to the side of
the ship.
Lord Wellrose also lent his aid, and
thus the d the surgeon got the
invalid on board the tender, and plac,
ed him on some cushions in the stern
of the deck.
Benny sank down wtth a sigh of re-
lief, and wearily closed his eyes and
fell into the sleep of prostration. .
Thr young earl, standing over hint,
gazed mournfully down upon tee tette

oyes ineuiringly to the surgeon.

und sighed.

The sick and wounded men were 411
corning on board.
''Where are all these poor creatures
to be taken, doctor?" intillired the
young earl, regarding the suffering
crowd compassionately.

"Yes, My lord; I Shall be most bee-

"Right, You will also be near your

And wbila he spoke, as the last of

The noise awoke Pettily, who open-

until his glance met the face of the
earl, When to raniantly,
Dr. Kittle* was very much enacts- ,
ed in superintending the landing of
the invalid's under las clutege,
But Lord Wellrose hiraself went on

It drawn up as near as permissible to
the Steamer. And then he raised 13en-
uniy, and eupported him tenderly to
the carriage, and placed him comfort-

And Lord Wellrose, taking Benny's
fair head upon his breast, gave the
order to the coachman to, drive slow-
ly to the Lord Admiral.
On reaching that hotel, his lord-
ship's groom and valet were found to
be in attendance.
And, with their assistance, Captain
Douglas was taken up to the rooms
that had been engaged for bis accent-
moclation, and laid upon a comfort-
able lounge.
Lord Wellrose ordered a dainty lun-
cheon, such as he hoped might tempt
the invalid's delicate appetite, And
then he came and sat by. Benny's

"It is rest and peade-71t is meat and

and glance of sneh pure love and per-
fect content that reached the young
earl's heart.
• By the earl's direction the waiter
drew a table up by the side of the in-
: valid's lounge, laid the cloth and ar-
ranged the lunchen upon it There

ed pheasant, some light, delietous

In +mite of the strenuousness of mod-
ern living and the tendency of men and
women to gather In cities the statistics
of mortality conclusively show tliat the
average length or life is constantly in-
creasing, A child at birth to -day may
• expect to live 10 years longer than if he
or she, had been born in 1880, If the
present rate of improvement should con-
tinue for the next 200 years the average
of life 'would be extended 00 years be-

reason for 'atter-day longer living is
the astenIshing reduction in infant mor-

He promises the roses to ray cheeks

Weird the dreams that come to

And the heart of me is lightened of a

There is courage in the twinkle of his

And before his merry laughter fly a
thousand fears and elg,hs;.
And the thoughts- .that have been

When the good old kindly doctor

THE FARMER'S PROBLEM,
• (Toronto News)
The Canadian farmer has a difficult
decision to make tlais year. For ‘the
first time In many years, from the stand-
point of inunediate profits, it wilt pay him
to sell his coarse grains instead of feed-
ing them to his live stock. The temp-
tation is a dangerous on, but should not
overcome the wise agriculturist, who is
able to take the longer view. Consider-
atiOn of ultimate profit' demaod that live
stock should not be etteriticed. Were
the short-sighted •alternative generally
to be taken the Canadian live stock in-
dustry would suffer a: set -back from
which it would not recover itt 10 or even

PAINT THE SCREW HOLES.
,Then You Can Use Thera Over and
Over Again Without Trouble.
Many persons experience consider-
able difficulty in getting.screws o hola
in screen doors and other movable con-
veniences which are put up and taken
down- frequently and which are tient
in place by screws. The holes occu-
pied by the screws become worn, and
the screws are often quite loose, caus-
ing doors to sag and be otherwise out
of proper order,
Bits of paper, string • and small
pieces of good are used to partially
WI up the holes so as to cause the
screws to be tight, but these work out
and cause groat annoyance, and a
better 'nettled is greatly desired.
• A coat of paint on the inside of the
screw holes is the most satisfactory
remedy for such an annoyaace.
When screws are removed paint the
holes with a small pen.ell brush or a
bit of cloth twisted and dipped in the
paint. When the paint fills the creases
made by the thread of the screw and
thoroughly dries the screw will fit
tightly the next time 11 18 thrust into
tho cavity. The painting should be
done each time the screws are re-
moved, and it will protect the wood as
well as mike the holes ready for the
readjustment of the door or Other ob-
ject which had to the changed quite
