Celebrated Remark Made ' By General Casletnau Seen in the Light of Events WRILE attention has ,been fixed on the ethical as- pects of the invasion of Belgium in 1919,. . people forgot the political and military•as- pect.% of ,that question as they pre- sented themselves in theory in the days before the war. One of the sur- prising things in that episode has. always been the apparent anreadi- ness of the French Getreral 'Staff for such a move. Was the Frezeh com- mand relying on a Gentles; treaty to protect the Channel ports? It so, why this example of unsuspected naivete in European polities, which Ilan shown itself so expert in ninety- nine maxims of Machiavelli, only to prove wanting in observing the hun- dredth, the one, namely, that it you are protected on the right wing by a fortress and on the lett by a promise you may., the attack to come through the promise? As' a matter of fact, if we are to believe the exposition which M. Me.yeras.makes of the situation is Le Populaire, tbe French strategy of August, 1914, has a history which goes back to 1911. At that time Gen. Michel was forced out of the high command in France and the ascend- sney paascd to Gene. Pau, Castelttnu and Jolfre. The nonage in personnel. was rho reiault of differing views of the YnllltarY possibilities of the fu - tare. Gear. Michel belonged to the enitool which foresaw the attack throngh Belgium; which favored the torttacation of the Franco-Belgian GEN. CASTELNA.U. frontier, and a united front from the Channel to the Alps. This view of things also implied certain changes in the theory of French military organization. For a front so extend- ed many more troops would be re - ticked in the standing army than for the shorter froht, Meuse -Lorraine-' Aiwa, Renee a.Three-year Service law, but also, still from the military point of view, reliance on the vast citizen army to supplement the standing force, This view also im- plie,d a certain political attitude to - 'ward the war. Under it France would wage a war of national defence for the integrity of her territories. It was, the official Or protessional view of the war that triumphed in France in 1917.: uo additional ex- pense on the Bele-tat front, massed attack through Alsace and Lorraine with regular troops, holding the se- cond line soldiers in reserve and the publte spirit carried on by the 'war for revanche" and the recovery of the lost provinces, Gen. Lebas, just be. fora the war, supported by Gen. Perotn and M. Vandmme, Deputy from the Nord, presented a Meteor- andum to Gen. Joffre protesting against the disarmament of Lille, !'len, ,toffte avoided the interview and passed the deputation up to Gen, Case tefnau. In, waving aside the prophecy Of an invasion through Belgium, Gen. Caatelnau uttered a. celebrated sen- tence: "We cannot hope for such luck," 'Shia confidence rested on a sittipla calculation of German reµ potire$9: f;o;Weot the Rpssl9tu advalii e it"as1 tine 'Presicn iuraett tarn** At. arse (Which wane off in AsguBt, 1014, aeeerdlWr to ply), the (let'-, mans would have not more than twelve divisions lett tor the offensive ,through )3elgium! 'When Ute "hick', wi€ieh Gen. Gas- tetnau deepsired of came, It was backed not by twelve drvisioni, but by thirty-two. Fortunately the . French ei ldai error utas balanced by the German mistake of driving at Paris instead of at Boulogne, While the French professional campaign collapsed ` beyond. Mulhansen,, the Wrench citizen army was preparing fer the Marne; and the 'enthusiasm that France could never have arous- ed abroad with her armies on the Rhine site gained again from her magnificent resistance on the defea- spre,, Many morale could be drawn from thte narrative.

Tokio has an astronomical observ- atory that for size and completeness will equal anything in the world. .. .., Cleaning and Grading Gratin. These two farm operations may be accomplished at the same time and by the same means. The fanning mill Is the most successful medium in ob- taining this result and too much im- portance cannot be placed on the use of this machine. The successful oper- ation of the fanning mill depends on two factors, that of wind blast and the use of sieves. The removal of light or inferior grain and the small- er, and lighter weed seeds is almost wholly dependent on the wind blast. It also assists the sieves because it removes part of the grain which would otherwise have to pass through ;.bem and it prevents clogging in the sieves by light seed. The two most important sieves are those of the top and bottom; The top sieve sliould be Just large enough to let the grain passthrough and keep back the larg- et impurities. The bottom sieve sbbald• be Of just sufficient size to keep 'hack the good seed. The utility of many fanning mills is impaired by the owner not possess- ing a full assortment of sieves and by his using poorly -fitting sieves, which allow weed Seeds and grain to lodge in the mill. The efficiency of many fanning' mills too is • often lessened by the operator being in, too. much of a hurry,". To obtain the, best reaults, grain should pass slowly, over the lower sieve; When the fan -1 � ning mill is turned too rapidly or the lower sieve has too much slope, many of the smaller impurities will not be removed., Well cleaned and well graded S2a5n is not only free from weed seeds,I other seeds, dirt and . chaff but la' larger in size, has greater unif.rmitr, • weighs heavier, is of better quality and• is of stronger vitality than grans not so cleaned and graded.

DREADED INFLUENZA Medical Men Believe it Will Again Visit Canada This Autumn and Winter. There is a widespread belief antoug medical men' that the epidemic of la grippe, or influenza, which Swept over the world last year, will again appear in Canada during this autumn and conn- ing winter. This dangerous trouble spsres• neither • age nor sex, but it naturally finds its easiest victims among those who are run down in health, or those whose blood is weak and watery and it is among the latter class in which the greatest number of fatalities occur, The surest way to prevent an attack of 'this dreaded trouble is to keep the blood rich and pure, and the safest and best way to do this is through the use of Dr. Williams Pink Pills. No reasonable precaution to avert an attach of influenza or la grippe should be spared. The disease itself is deadly, but its after-effects, among those who are spared, make the life of the victim one of 'constant misery. Ask almost any of those have been attacked ,by influenza what their pre- sent condition of health is and most of them will answer; "Since l had the influenza, I have been fully well." This trouble leaves behind it a persistent weakness of the limbs, shortness of breath, bad digestion, palpitation of the heart, and a tired feeling after even slight exertion. This is due to the thin- blooded condition in which la grippe almost always leaves its victims after the fever and influenza have subsided. They are at the mercy, of relapses and complications, often vety serious, This condition will continue until the blood is built up again, and for the purpose ,of building tip the blood and strength- ening the 'nerves nothing can equal a fair treatment with Dr. Wittiness Pink Pills: From first to last dose tisese pills snake new, rich blood, wwhicit reaches every organ and nerve in the body, 'l'litts the lingering germs are 'driven out, and the weak, despondent victims of ilifhtenza are transformed into cheer- ful, healthy, happy sten and women. But better still, you can put your -self in a condition to resist an attack of influenza by enriching the blood through the use of Dr, Williams Pink Phis, and this, it seems, is the sensible tiling to do at ohce, Dr. Williams Pink tpilfs are said by all dealers in tnedicitte o• willesent' .y mai at 50 .t 1s, b by i netts a box of lx boxes for $2,50, by The Or, Wheals Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. 11 A ROMANCE OF. THE BAMEFIELD Deugi;tor• of Col, Alex, Wilson Former- ly of the 33rd, Battalion,' Witdi. New York, Sept. 23,---A romance which began on the battlefields • of France, where she was 'a nursing sister and he was a soldier, culmin- ated in New York, Saturday night in the marriage at the Chapel ' of the intercession, BroadWay and 455th street, of Miss Annie Webster Wilson daughter of 'Colonel Alexander Wil; son, of Seafortit , formerly of the 33rd Battalion of Canadians, and sister of Reginald Wilson of . the staff of the New York Sun, to Parkes Auself, Miss Wilson was gassed while on duty two years ago, and it is since that time that she met Mr, Ansell first in France and then in an army hospital in Montreal, where the en- gagement was. announced several months ago. 'rhe marriage was con- ducted by the Rev. Dr. Milo H. Gates, and the bride's family was in New York for the occasion. WHY YOU SHOULD BUY VICTORY BONDS You will get 5% per cent interest on your money.
