The best of luck, which soldiers used often to wish one another in the Great War, has befallen one of them who helped another when his luck was out. The luckless one was a French poilu who had been severely wounded in the last great move of 1918. An American doughboy brought him out of danger, ■bandaged him, exchanged cards with him, and wished him the best of luck. The American boy never expected to hear from the French eoldier again. But he recently received a letter from Paris to say that the young Frenchman’s father had left him £12,000 in his will.
