By KATHLEEN NORRIS your soldier boy WHEN home, remem' copardo is sulphur and sulphur Is Cacopardo. He turned on his heel, as militarily as he could, and marched out. Between the Palazzo In Adano and the headquarters of the Forty-Nint- h Division, in a villa beyond Vicinamare, old Cacopardo did not say a word to the jeep driver. He sat leaning forward against the wind, his goggles down over his eyes and his parasol straining over his head. The jeeps windshield was down on the hood, with the canvas cover over it, as all jeep windshields should be where there is possibility of enemy strafing attacks, and so the wind was very strong. After a while old Cacopardo decided that sun was preferable to wind, and he moved the parasol down and held it in front of him, to fend off the wind. The villa In which the Forty-Nint- h Division was dug in for the time being had beloftged to a friend of Cacopardos. Cacopardo and this friend had shared an Interest in Italian furniture, and the old man knew the value ot the things in this villa. The friend was dead now, but Cacopardo had a hard time remembering which of his friends had died and which were still living; he therefore thought of them all as living. It was easier that way. Because he was entering the villa of his friend, whom he considered to be living, Cacopardo approached the gate In the spirit of a cordial visit, and he expected to be received cordially. He was in for a surprise. Anyone who has never tried to see a general could not possibly know what Cacopardos reception was like. A sentry stopped him at the gate. "Good morning," said Cacopardo, as if addressing a butler at his friends door, is my friend Sala-tiell- o For Special Occasions. that time is the FASHION favorite for fall A cure for the problems that will come with him. Whatever the situation is, time will alleviate its hardest features; time will bring new interests, new turns of the wheel that will make living tolerable to him. Be infinitely patient; not too cheerful, not too sympathetic. Keep about him as pleasant an atmosphere as you can, and wait for time. Perhaps he may have to adjust himself to the loss of a hand, or a leg. Perhaps his sight is gone. Perhaps some facial injury will cause him pain and difficulty for the rest of his days. the two piece frock.

Captain Purvis didnt notice that A perspiring courier brought a note to Major Joppolos office. It said in English: I got to seen you in the immediate. And It was signed M. Cacopardo. Not five minutes behind the courier, Cacopardo himself showed up, all dressed for traveling. He hadjeath-e- r gauntlets on, and goggles up on his forehead, and he carried a green parasol In his right hand. The man trotted the length of Major Joppolos office, leaned forward over his desk, looked over his shoulder at Giuseppe and Zito, then looked at the Major and said In a loud whisper: I got to talk alone. Major Joppolo asked his interpreter and usher to step outside. "I have received a secret messages from the Mafia, the old man said, still whispering loudly. I have the military secrets of where are the German troops. You must send your soldiers, Mister Major. have no Major Joppolo said: soldiers, Im Just the administrator of Adano.

But when this flurry is over, the strain comes, and that is the moment when you have to have your strength and philosophy ready.

For one thing, we bought him a dozen chickens, and It is extraordinary how they amuse and interest him. For another, 1 let him help me with cooking and got him a little cook book. Now he asks me to get taragon vinegar or maraschino cherries for various dishes, and putters away with chopping bowls and while I am getting meals. Best of all, he carved me a little Scotty out of soap one day, and it was so good that I have kept it, under a glass bowl, and have encouraged him to carve other things. Now he is carving the most remarkable Jointed dolls of white wood; they tre so fine in their natural little childish faces and forms that he has not only found an immediate market for the few he has done, but may really hope for a fine livelihood from them. This still seems to my husband and me too good to be true, but It is surely coming. Lastly, two weeks ago, to celebrate the first little success of the dolls, we brought him a baby Scotty, a little mass of bouncing black wool, and a few hours later, when Brig was asleep In Roilys arm, I saw a look on Roilys face that I thought never would be there again.
