City. and for ITH the spirit of this merry yuletide strong upon you while casting about for a Christmas present that will give the greatest amount of genuine pleasure for the least amount of money—a present that will please old or young, married or single, of either sex—just take a little hint and send a year’s subscription to the Sunday Call. THE RECIPIENT OF YOUR FAVOR WILL GET FIFTY TIMES THE VALUE OF YOUR MONEY. Perhaps you have read some such statement as that before, but—well—just read on. If you are already a subscriber and have been saving the Sunday Call for the past several months you now have in your library six of the best novels of the year by the cleverest writers in the world. They are: “NONE BUT THE BRAVE,” “LAZARRE,” “THE MYSTERY BOX,” “THE AUTOCRATS,” “ALICE OF OLD VIN- CENNES” and “THE OPUS.” “NONE BUT THE BRAVE” began August 10. The installment of “The Octopus” was pub- lished December 10. That makes six books in eighteen weeks, or in other words a complete novel every three weeks. If you bought any of those novels in the bookstores they would cost you $1 50 apiece. Just figure that out and see what it really means in a year. It’s very simple—so simple’that the remarkable possibilities of a year’s subscription can be seen at a glance. In four months and a helf the Sunday Call has given ycu $9 worth of the best modern literature obtainable anywhere, free—ABSOLUTELY FREE. That is the most striking thing about the Sunday Call’s new literary pol- icy—and one which no other paper in America can ever dream of imitating. It gives you the latest creations of authors with a world wide reputation without extra cost. IN TWELVE MONTHS YOU ‘WILL GET EIGHTEEN COMPLETE NOVELS and all the current features of the magazines as well. The very latest of these, “THE GOSPEL OF JUDAS ISCAR- IOT,” the religious and literary sensation of two continents, a book that is stronger than “Ben Hur,” more vividly realistic than “Quo Vadis,” is just begun in the Sunday Call. It shows the splendors, the vices and follies, the pleasures and sports of Rome as they have never been done before, and tells of the coming of Christ and his Jong and glorious struggle to estab- lish his kingdom of heaven on arth, and the remarkable part in his crucifixion played by Judas, he most bitterly despised man in either profane or biblical history. So send your subscription - resent right now, for nothing could be more timely. By getting the “unday Call .of December 14 (the gmtcnfl-tnn edition), December 21 and December 28, you get “The Gospel of Judas t” complete. And now read what is to follow: After the “Gospel of Judas Iscariot” come “Wh.n Enighthood ‘Was in Flower,” by Charles Major; “The Leopard’s Spots,” - by Thomas Dixon Jr.; “The Gentleman From Indiana,” by Booth Tark- ington; “Tainted Gold,” by Mrs. C. N. Williamson; “The '.l‘u:mpike House,” by Fergus Hume, etc., etc. Besides this you will get 2 complete short story every Bun- | tatoes, | would not have a command until it was well fed. A United States army officer, when asked by me what kind of a meal a soldier could make of his ration, re- plied: “Better than I can get at home.” An examination of the components of the ration shows this to be true. For troops in garrison the ration contains, as stand- ard articles, fresh beef, flour, beans, po- prunes, coffee, .sugar, vinegar, salt and pepper and these substitutive articles: Fresh mutton, bacon, canned meat, dried fish, pickled fish, soft bread, cornmeal, peas, rice, hominy, onions, canned tomatoes and fresl: vegetables, or, when it is impracticable to supply these fresh vegetables, desiccated vegetables. | In addition to the ration, company funds are drawn on to purchase delicacies for the subsistence stores. On the march to Peking the food of the | United States soldler exceeded in qual- ity, quantity and variety that of any of the allied forces. The Japanese had only rice, dried fish, and, occasionally, canned | meat; the Indian troops mainly rice. The British white troops had a ration similar to the American in quality and quantity, but not so varled or flexible. They used tea instead of coffee. The Russians had little besides a black bread and soup. They received one-fourth of a pound of a canned meat preparation at intervals. The German ration consisted of bread, fresh or smoked meat, bacon or sausage, canned meat, rice, barley or potatoes, salt, coffee or tea and sugar. The French ra- tion included bread, fresh meat or tinned meat or bacon, rice and beans, or desic- éated vegetables or potatoes, condensed soup, lard, salt, sugar, wine, rum and brandy. The United States army ration costs about 30 cents. The food of our army therefore necessitates a daily expenditure of nearly $25,000. European nations would adopt our ration were it not for the cost. Germany maintains .an army of 491,136 men. If it were supplied with the Amer- ican ration the Berlin Government would have to spend $53,779,000 for food alone. In time of war, with the entire army of 3,000,000 called into service, the cost of food would aggregate the immense total of $328,500,000. These figures simply stag- ger the German commissariat. To sup< ply the American ration to the Japanese army the Tokio Government would have to pay out $66,041,275 annually. Russia’s army under American conditions would eat food costing $120,540,000 a year. France would have to spend $57,560,000 on her com- missariat, while Great Britain's expendi- ture wouild be $47,063,000. —_——————— Don’t Forget ing pflc- prevail: Dress and $1.50, visir DR.
