The Exeter Advocate, 1915-11-25, Page 3110W TO CURE RHEUMATISM 'The Disease is in the Blood and Must Be Treated Through the Blood. There are almost as many ways of treating rheumatism as there are dee- tors. Most of these treatments are directed at the symptoms andare con- sidered sncces ful if they 'relieve the pain and the stiffness, But the pain and the stiffness return particularly if the patient has been exposed to dampness. This shows that the poi- son was not driven from the system by the treatment employed. Rheuma- tism can be relieved in a number of ways, but there is only one way to erre it. and that is through the blood, expelling the poisonous acid that causes the aches and pains and stiff- ness. To renew and enrich the blood there is no medicine can equal Dr, Williams' Pink Pills, which go right to the root of the trouble and cure rheumatism to stay cured. The fol- lowing is an example of what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills can do in cases of this kind. Mr. Henry Smith, St. Jerome, Qtle., says; ''For upwards of year I was a victim of rheumatism in a most painful form. The trouble was located in my legs, andfor a long o. time vcas se bad that I could not wa11i'. The suffering which I endured con only be imagined by those who have been similarly afi'lieted. Doctors' treatment did not help me, and then I began trying other remedies, but with no better results. Finally I was ad- vised to try Dr. Williams" Pink fills,` and although I had begun to lose faith in medicine, I finally decided to give the pills a trial. I am very grateful now that I did so, for after taking eight boxes of the pills the trouble completely disappeared, I Was free from pain and could walk as well as ever I did in my life. I have strict taTen the pills occasionally as a pre- .autionary measure, and I cannot speak too highly in their favor. You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills through, any medicine dealer or sy mail at 5Q cents .a box or air boxes 'or sus from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. SHORTAGE OF CLEVER IIUNS, Not Enough Autocrats to 'Rim the German Army. The Mitt Prussian and Pomeranian families have by no means a mono- poly of high posts in the German army. In that army there is a point in the advancement of an, officer known as "die Majors Eeke"—the ;iiajor's corner—the doubling of which is purely a matter of merit and efii- liency. The finest blood and most re- ined arrogance that ever came out of Prussia will not carry the ineompe- ;eut officer round it, and, perhaps, ;considering the size of time German staff, there are not enough clever Prussians to go round. So side by side with Von Falkenhayn, Von Stranitz, and Von der Mfrrwitz `ve find Alexander von Kiuck, son of von Mackensen, whose father was a coun- try squire; Friedrich von Scholtz, son of a minor official in Flensburg. Von Emmich began life as plain Otto Em- mich. As for the German navy, that ser- vice never was looked up to by the Prussians as worthy of the attention of a well-born man. All its principal officers are middle-class men. Grand Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz is the son of a lawyer; Admiral von Koester is the son of.Hans Koester, a well- known German dramatic poet; Von Pohl, chief of the Admiralty staff, was plain"Captain Pohl till he return- ed from the China expedition in 1899, and Von Mueller, head of the Marine Cabinet, was the. son of .a manufac- turer of agricultural implemefits as remote from the sea as Chemnitz in Saxony. But Germany is but a par- venu at sea, and has not yet acquired .the cult of "old naval families."

A Western physician has views about food. He says: "I have always`•believed that the duty of the physician does. not. cease with treating the sick, but that we. owe it to humanity to teach them how to protect their health especially by hygienic"tind dietetic laws. "With such 'a feeling as to my' duty I take great pleasure in saying, that, in my own experience and also from . personal observation, I • have found no food.to equal. Grape -Nuts and that I find 'there is almost no limit to the great ..benefit this food will bring when used in all cases of sickness and convalescence, " "It is' my experience that no physi- cal condition forbids the use of Grape Nuts. To persons in health there is nothing so nourishing ,and acceptable to the stomach especially at breakfast to start the machinery of the human system on the day's work. "In eases of indigestion 'I know that a complete breakfast „can be made of Grape -Nuts and cream. and I think it is necessary not to overload the stom- ach at the morning meal. I also know the great value of'Grape-Nuts ^'wlen the stomach is too weak to digest other food.

There is no limit to. the daring and effrontery of spies in France, and so necessary is it to take every precau- tion against them' 'that conversation between soldiers and civilians is view- ed with great disfavor 'by the authori- ties. 'The strictest orders have been issued to the troops that no informa- tion is to be given to anyone, either civil or military. The daring of spies is illustrated by an incident related by a sapper, Sig- nals Section, R.E., now in France. On one occasion two officers went into a certain signal office andperemptorily demanded certain information. They were both of • high _,rank, and at first the officer in charge . had -not the slightest suspicion. But the British "th" proved their undoing. They were cunning enough, to avoid words begin-,; .Hing thus, but the fatal "dis" for "this" slipped out, and soon they were looking down a couple of revol- ver barrels while a sharp- voice said, "Hands )up." ' That -was the end of their spying, tersely says the sapper.: On another occasion a dispatch - rider went tearing on -his motor cycle by a field, in which a , man was ploughing. ; Suddenly a bullet went through his cap, twisting it round his head. The rider increased his speed, rounded a bend' in the road, and met a motor -lorry. Soon three soldiers went out for a walk across the field. They stopped and spoke to the ploughman, and one of them held 'out his hand. The' ploughman took it, and -the next minute was on his back, with a knee pressing in his chest. .The other two soldiers searched the hedge, and found a rifle and cartridges concealed there. So the ploughman was 'marched' off, and as he was not in.uniform, he Was tried as a would-be murderer. It is an insult in France to call anyone "a melon." marls POE BALE. nAnMs — ALL, SIZES STOCK, X' Grain,Dairy }� or Fa'uit, When you want to DOntuy,. write IL W. Dawson.

Dr. Hellman Medical Private James Law, $cots Guards, Co., Limited, Coilingwcod, Ont. has returned to his home after 'spend -Le A tik an lWhite Ing eight months as a prisoner in "ii ,Wyandottes Germany. He was captured on Janu- ary 25th.. About 100 of the enemy entered the trench where he visas, and Law was wounded in three places— the left thigh, chest, and right shoul- der. He lost much blood and became unconscious. He was in a ,Segni-coma- tose condition for nearly four. days, and found himself in the hands of the Germans. One big soldier attempted to bayonet him, and was only re- strained by a humane comrade, who confided to Law in good English that war was a dreadful thing: lie re- mained in hospital for ten days, and was fed during that period entirely on hot milk. Life in. camp was very miserable. Those who were able to work were sent out in batches to pull ploughs, barrows, etc. Food was very bad and, according to Law, would not have been given even to pigs in Scotland. Black coffee was served without su- gar or milk and so strong that the men could not drink it, The "food" called bread appeared to be coiliposed of potatoes, oileake, and bran. It was soft and damp, and would, said Law, have made .a splendid substitute for putty. It was indigestible and made most of the men ill. Latterly Law subsisted almost entirely on food sent from home. Even worse than the . bread was the "potato soup." The prisoners were given plenty of a wa- teyy mixture containing an abundance of potato skins, but it is Law's belief that the sentries got the potatoes. Another dish was herring soup—with the herring in a raw state—skin, ilandeverything scales, entrails, eyes, e y g mixed together in a bucket. Postcards took a long time to reach home. If the writer praised the Ger- ' no mans the letter was passed. I f not, it was destroyed. On. one occasion a German corporal interrupted Law, who was engaged in playing a game of cards, and pulled him off his seat. Law learned afterwards that lie had been treated in that way because he did not salute the corporal! He re "None Better." Winners at biggest shows. Good cockerels $2, $3, $5 each.
