Here is One of the Most Exciting of the Stories Told of Charge by Canadian Cavalry. Canadian cavalry participated in the British advance againstCambrai during the latter part of last 'year, when the Hindenburg line was smash- ed and the enemy driven back on Cambrai.

East of Rumily, how- ever, they came upon several British tanks, which had run almost into a German battery position and were being fired at pointblank by great guns, The monitors were in a tight place and needed assistance badly. They got it. The cavalry came ,pound - s1 of four, and their chine guns. Cavalry scouts discovered this trap and, dashing hack, gave word ,to the commander. The latter snapped out a command and a squad, most of whom were still unaware of the presence' of the sunken road, di- vided into two bodies, one of which deployed to the right toward a break in the wall of the road, while the' other drew their sabers and charged straight ahead. Took Flying Leap. The Germans, not knowing that British cavalry was in operation, still remained in the ditch, and the Cana- dians reached the edge of the minia- ture precipice without seeing the enemy. They saw them then in num- bers and realized for the first . time that they were headed for a drop of several feet to the road level. Not a horseman hesitated.

Price, 15 cents, Fighting every inch of ground, tak- ing tremendous toll from the attack- ing Huns, sometimes with French al- lies, acting often as infantry, as well as horsemen, the Canadian cavalry has, since the beginning of the great. German offensive covered itself with such glory as will live for ever in Bri- tish military history. Their capture of the big wood north of Morelli and the charge of a squadron into a battle of German machine guns is, according to their comrades in the cavalry corps, in a class with Balaclava. The whole operation s regarded as the most famous action of the war. Canada must be prepgred to find many of her sons gone, but the price paid was not excessive. In addition to turning the tide of battle at various places in the forward areas, they practically saved Amiens. General Sir Henry Rawlinson, visit- ing the `Canadian cavalry on April 3, addressed each unit in turn and told them that the two woods they had recaptured from the enemy, the Bois de Moreil and Rifle wood, were the do- minating features, the possession of which might at that time have been fatal to the defense of Amiens. No other troops, he said, were avail- able to retake these vital positions, and their courage and determination had turned the fortunes of the day. This is an excellent design for the separate skirt.

How the United States Prepares Molten Mass Moved at Allies Slew Whole Division, Says U. S. Soldier Returned From Front. German frightfulness in the form of a fiery,furnace of liquid fire which moves in front of the advancing troops, a great lake of flame seventy- five feet wide, has been used against the Allied troops in the recent offen- sive, So powerful and terrible has been the heat that entire platoons have withered away in the blast. That is a part of the story which William B. Levis, of New York, brought home from France. In addi- tion, he told of the unbelievable cruel- ties and torture which had been in- flicted on Allied captives to create terror in the breasts of their fellows behind the English and French lines. "These tales are only too true,`' said Levis, who returns to aid in raising $100,000 to help feed and clothe French children orphaned by the war. "Canadians and Scotch Highlanders," he said, "have been taken prisoners and crucified before the eyes of their comrades in the trenches. They have been hanged head downward, with their throats It became apparent that the men slit, and left in this manner to die and the rest of .the horses must suf- fer the same fate if they remained where they were.

An article in the World's Work gives a particularly interesting ac- count of the use of a miniature range in the training of United States avia- tion students. It is this range, says the writer, Mr. Burton J. Hendrick, that gives the student that prelimin- ary instruction in artillery spotting that is perhaps the most useful ser- vice rendered by the aeroplane. On a huge table in a science hall at Ohio State University, where one of the ground schools is located, is an immense Picture map of a section of Belgium. It shows the city of Ypres and all the surrounding country, in- cluding every farmhouse, barn, coun- try road, open field, river and pond. In a gallery about' ten feet above this map sit several future aviators. They are supposed to be in aeroplanes, six thousand feet in the air. The scale of the map is so graduated that, as they gaze down upon it, the terrain appears precisely as it would look if these men were actually flying in the air at that height. Their business is to locate exploding shells, and notify their own batteries by wireless of the accuracy or inaccuracy of the aim. Shells are exploding all the time on this miniature sketch of Belgian ter- ritory below them—not real shells, of course, but representations that con- vey a complete illusion, Under the map, which is of paper and therefore transparent to light, are hundreds of little electric -light bulbs. By touching the appropriate button, the instructor can light his selected bulb and cause a little flash to appear on the map, which gives an accurate representation of an exploding shell. The apprentice airman in the gallery selects the German battery that his men are attempting to destroy, and the instructor touches off his finite - don shells. As soon as each shell explodes, a tapping is heard up in the little gal- lery; the student is sending a wireless message to his friends, telling them how far they have come from hitting the object. His report may take such cryptic form as "Ten o'clock and three hundred yards." That would puzzle the uninitiated,: but it locates precisely the spot where the shell has fallen. For purposes of signalling, the Ger- man battery is taken as the centre of a clock, with twelve o'clock pointed due north. When the airman signals "ten o'clock" he moans ,that the shell o—o—°—o--°—o 0 0 —0-0—O e PAIN? NOT A BIT! LIFT YOUR CORNS o OR CALLUSES OFF 0 O No humbug!

This new drug is an ether com- pound discovered by a Cincinnati chemist. It is called != t freezone, and can now be obtained in tiny bot- tles as here shown at very little tie cos t from r any drug store. Just ask for freezone. Ap- ply a drop or two di- rectly upon a tender corn or callus and in- stantly the soreness disappears. Shortly you will find the corn or callus so loose that you can lift it off, root and all, with the fin- gers. Not a twinge of pain, soreness or irritation; not even the slightest smarting, either when applying freezone or afterwards. This drug doesn't eat up the corn or cal- lus, but shrivels them so they loosen and come right out. It is no humbug! It works like a charm. For a few cents you can get rid of every hard corn, soft corn or corn between the toes, as well as painful calluses on bottom of your feet. It never dis- appoints and never burnsbites or inflames. If your druggist hasn't any freezone yet, tell him to get a little bottle for you from his whole- sale house. Where garden space is limited and it is desired to get the greatest pos- sible returns from a small area, two crops may be grown on the same piece of ground at the same time. The crops may be planted in the same row, with the plants of one between the plants of another; or, better, in alter- nate rows.
