THROUGH LA GRIM OF CEMETERIES
It Generally Leaves the Patient
Debilitated Wad an Ey Vic-
tim to Other Diseases.
One or the foremost medical writds
says: "It is astonishing the lumber of
people who have been crippled in
health for years after an attack of
la grippe or influenza." The real dan-
ger from this' diseoe, which sweeps
over Canada every winter, is dining
convalescence, when the characteristic
symptoms, the fever; the catarrh, the
headaches and the depression of spi-
rits pass away. Grin leaves behind it
weakened vital powers, thin blood, im-
paired digestion and over -sensitive
nerves—a condition that makes the
system an easy prey to pneumonia,
bronchitis, rheumatism, nervous pros-
tration and even eonsumption. It is a
condition that calls mot emphatically
for a tonic for the blood. Dr. Wil -
Hanle' Pink Pills are a tonic especially
adapted to meet •this need as they
purify and enrich the blood. They
tone up the nerves and give vigor,
strength and healthto the debilitated
system. Mrs. Howard D. Chaffey,
Indian Island, N,B., says: "For sev-
eral winters in succession I was at-
tacked by la grippe, which left me
weak and badly run down. In each
ease I used Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
with the most beneficial results. Last
winter when the trouble was again'
prevalent I took the precaution of for-
tifying my System with Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills and- escaped the trouble,
while many of my neighbors were
down with it. In fact I enjoyed the
best of health all spring and feel sure
this medicine will so fortify the sys-
tem as to prevent the trouble."
These Pills are sold by all medicine
dealers or may be had by mail at 50
cents a box or six boxes for $2.50

THOUSANDS OF GRAVES IN
FRENCH LORRAINE.
Shifting of Battles May Be Traced
By Following Lines of ,
e'Wooden Crosses.
` French Lorraine is the greatest
'cemetery in the world. Colonies of
dead,'marked by lines of crude wood -
crosses, lies everywhere under
newly -formed sod at the edges of
woods and thickets andin ravines—
German and French. The -shifting of
battle scenes , may be traced' by fol-
lowing them. They are thickest there
where was fought the great battle
for Nancy that began with the re-
treat of the Freach from Moritange
and reached its climax during the
battle of the Marne. The number has
been continually swelled since in the
14 -months' struggle in .the Woevre
and the Vosges.
Saint Genevieve, Essey, the
Amances, the Heights of Cuittes,
Veaine, Gerbevillers of the Grand
Couronne cieNancy, Etain, the
Eparges, the Boia Brule, the .Bois
Apremont, the Bois Saint Mansuys and
the Bois Le Pretre in the Woevre are
so many cemeteries, nearly all of
them with crosses bearing names ah,
ready illustrious. Lionel Rieux, the
poet, lies •at Essey; Paul Arial, who
received a bullet in his heart, in the
Saint Mansuy Woods. Among the
French buried at Gerberviller is Jean
Martin, one of the most promising pu-
pils of the Freneh Art School at
Rome. He fell with the heroic hand-
ful of Chasseurs that held the Mor-
tagne there against 40,000 Germans
during the 11 hours. 1VIercell Drouet

of the Samagneux hill.

Peace treaties are not written
straight across the page, orpages,
like ordinary documents. They de
written in parallel columns, one in
English, the next in French, the next
in Italian, German, Russian, and so
on, according to the number of lan-
guages spoken by the peoples of the
signatory' powers. The text of each
of these columns is an exact transla-
tion of the text of all the other col-
umns, and the utmost pains is taken
in the selection of words that will
convey identical shades of meaning.
The monarchs of the signatory pow-
ers don't affix their signatures or
seals to the peace treaties entered
into by them. This important formal-
ity is carried out by specially accredit-
ed peace commissioners, each of
whom uses his own personal private
seal, the impression being in red

KAISER'S MATCH-MAKING.1
How He Gains Power Through His
Family Connections.
The great German kingly and
princely and grand -ducal houses, the
Hohenzollerns, the Cobourgs, and the
rest, have this one thing in .common;
their_ women all breed and- rear line
babies, and many of them.
A certain fixed proportion of these
sturdy, clean -limbed, beautiful infants
are girls, and they presently grow up
—or some of them do, at any rate—
into 'sturdy, clean -limbed, beautiful
women.
Now, beautiful women, if they hap-
pen to be princesses, and rich, as
most of these are, are valuable assets
to st.sovereign who, like the Kaiser,
is bent on dominating Europe. He
bestows the pick of them on other
minor sovereigns, thereby gaining
power and prestige through his family
connections. All men are influenced
more or less, consciously or uncon-
sciously, by their wives, and Kings
are no exception to the rule.
And the Kaiser is an Al marriage
broker. Make no mistake about that.
He has bestowed his favorite sister,
the Princess .Sophie, on King Con-
stantine of, Greece, -with what result
we all know.
He it was, too, who "arranged"
the marriage of the young Queen of
mans, forced by the resistance of the Holland with his kinsman, Prince
company- of infantry at Loisy to ;try Henry of Mecklenburg -Schwerin; and
a flank movement around the heights
of Sainte Genevieve, obtained a suc-
cess before the heights of Cuittes,
where French crossas predominate. It
was then, thinking he saw the route
opening up for his troops, the Em-
peror of Germany issued his famous
order of the day: "To -morrow in
Nancy." Sainte Genevieve' was still
between His Majesty's troops and the
Lorraine capital; it is to -day the ceme-
tery of most of them, The French,
too, fell in such numbers there as to
disquiet the officers, who called the
attention of Commandant M— to
the losses.
"No matter," replied the command-
ant, "we won't give an inch." It re-
quired an • order from the general to
induce him to take up a stronger posi-
tion a little in the rear.
"In the Name of His Majesty."
FIGHTING WOMEN.
Some in Russian Arnty Have Been
Decorated for Bravery.
.It has been known for months that
many Russian women have been fight-
ing shoulder to shoulder with their
fathers, husbands and brothers in
the army of the Czar.
A number of them have been pro-
moted and have become full-fledged
officers, and. others have been decor-
ated for gallantry, with the military
Cross of St. Gorge.
The youngest, Perhaps, is an 18 -
year -old Vilna schoolgirl, Kira Bash-
kiron, who enlisted under the name
of Nicholas Popin. She had her feet
frozen, but continued fighting until
she was wounded and taken to the
field hoepital, where it was discovered
that she was a woman.
Alexandra Kokovtseva also enlist-
ed under an assumed name in the
Ural Cossack regiiiient,to which.her
husband 'belonged, and in which he
had fought in the Russo-Japanese
• After having been wounded twice
in the East. Prussian canipitign she
showed such extraordinary courage
that she was recommended to be pro-
moted to become a colonel, although
her sex had been found out, and as
colonel she has served ever since.
Her soldiers are devoted to her,
and none of them can sit a horse with
more ease than she or can endure
• longer hours in the saddle. She was
born in the Ural Mountains, and
spent most of her life in the open.

no one can truthfully say that Hol-
land is precisely and enthusiastically
on our side.
Bulgaria Was been ruled over by a
German ever since it became an in-
dependent country, the present King
being, of course, a Coburger; while
bis wife is also a German, being form-
erly known as Princess Eleanore of
Reuss.
The Gerritan Princess Alexandrine
of Mecklenburg, nobbled the present
Ring of Denmark, Christian X.; and
his father, by the way, was also a
German originally—Prince Schleswig-
Holstein-Sonderburb-Glucksburg.
The same thing confronts us in
which ever direction we torn. Europe
is simply dotted thick allover with
German Royalties set upon "strategic"
thrones. Thus the Queen of 'Sweden
is a German, and first cousin to the
Kaiser, being formerly known as
Princess Victoria of Baden. King
Ferdinand Of Rumania is a Hohenzol-
lern, and his German born -and -bred
wife .was formerly the Princess Marie
of Saxe -Coburg and Gotha.
Fortunately, though, it doesn't al-
ways work, this giving in Marriage in
order to further the great game of
"Deutseldand ober Allies." The pre-
sent Queen of Belgium, as we all
know, is a German. Yet she detests
the Runs who have ravaged her hus-
band's kingdom as heartily as we do,
and has publicly avowed her intention
of having nothing more whatever to
do with them.
Also, the Albanians last year turn-
ed on the Kaiser's kinsman, Prince
Wilhelm Of NVied, and kicked him off
the throne of which the German Em-
peror had, as he thought, securely
seated him, after a turbulent reign of
barely eleven months.
During the attacks upon the plateau
of Amance, captured on the 7th and
retaken by General Dubial on the
8th, Emperor William is said to have
observed the action from the edge of
the Moral Woods, behind which were
concealed the 10;000 horsemen of the
Prussian Guard—his escort into
Nancy. Velaine fell and Uhlans and
Bavarian infantry surged,' into the
passage between the two heights of
Amance. "If we can hold out the day
it will be a miracle," said the French
General in command. The three.
inchers increased their fire to the
maximum speed just then and mowed
those Uhlans and Bavarians down be-
ide they could debauch from the de-
file; they lie there to -day in serried
ranks over which a weedy sod has
formed. The 10,000 cavalry of the
guard galloped off toward Metz, and
a parliamentarian with a white flag
asked, "In the name of: His Majesty,"
for an armistice of 24 hours to bury
the dead. "
"In 24 hours," replied the French
General, "when- the Emperor shall
have given sepulchre to his thousands
of dead, we shall be ready for him
again."

CAUSES TROUBLE
People Slowly Learn the Facts.
"All my life I have been a slave to
coffee. I kept gradually losing my
health, but I used to say 'nonsense, it
don't hart me: ,
"Slowly I was forced to admit the
truth and the final result was that my
nervous force was shattered. (Tea
produces about the same effect as cof-
fee, because they both contain the
drugs, caffeine and tannin).
"lVfy heart became weak and uneer-
tain in its action and that frightened
me. Then my physician told inc that I
must stop drinking coffee or I could
never expect to be well again.
"I thought of Postum but • could
hardly bring myself to give up the
coffee.
"Finally I concluded that I owed it
to myself to give Postum a trial. I
got a package and carefully followed
the directions and what a delicious,
nourishing, rich drink it wasi Do you
know, I found it very easy to shift
from coffee to Postum.
"Almost immediately atter I made
• the Change I found myself better, and
as the days went by I kept on improv-
ing. My nerves grew steady, I slept
well and felt strong and well-balanced.
Now the old nervousness is gone and 1
am well once move."
It pays to give up the drink that
acts on some like a poison, for health
is the greatest fortune one can have.

Distant Postinn—a soluble powder—
dissolves quickly in a cup of hot wa-

Both kinds are equally delicious and
cost about the same per cup.

Beatrice Harraden.
If we are in too great a hurry to

Jan. 31st (Special). — Mrs. Violet
Marchbank, wife of a well-known far-
mer living near here, is telling her
neighbors of the splendid results she
has got through using Dodd's Kidney
Pills.
"My trouble started from a cold,"
Mrs. Marchbenk states. "I had back-
ache, my joints were stiff and my
musdes tramped. I was irritable and
always thirsty. My appetite was fit-
ful and I felt heavy and sleepy sifter
meals. Rheumatism was added to my
troubles as well as headaches, and
heart fluttering's made me very anx-
imis at times.
."I suffered for about two years and
was far from being a well woman
when my. brother told me what great
things Dodd's Kidney Pills had done
Lor him, and I made up my mind to
try them.
"I sent and got three boxes and
they helped me right from the start.
I can recommend DEidd's Kidney- Pills
to all women who suffer as I did."
Every one 'of Mrs. 1Vlarchbank's
symptoms •was a symptom of kidney
trouble. That is why she found such
quick relief ie Dodd's Kidney Pills.

LONDON AND BERLIN.
Awakening of the Former and False
Security of the Latter.
A neutral who just visited London
and Berlin cities describes them
thus:
No one who has seen both Londort
and Berlin can fail to be impressed
by the fact that England is beginning
the fight, while Berlin confidently be-
lieves that the end of the war is at
hand. Berlin is lulled by the incense
of victory to a sense of false security.
London is for the first time fully
awake to the real perils of the situ-
ation. 'England seems on the eve of
a great effort. Germany is convinced
that she has crushed her enemies. In
a word, Berlin talks peace, London
war!.
A Russian Mother Was Avenged by
Her 12 -Year -Old Soit.
Writing in the Russkoye Slovi,
Gregori Petroff says:
In a certain place a Cossack patrol,
which had penetrated for into the
enemy's flanks, came across a peas-
ant boy, about 12 years old. The
Child was lying bidden between some
tussocks of grass, and when found he
was unconscious. His breathing wa8.
almost imperceptible. One of the
Cossacks threw him over his saddle
and brought him. to camp. On re-
covering consciousness he narrated
what had taken place.
"I was with the Germans an Sat-
urclay,h he said.
"How is that?" the soldiers inquir-
ed. They thought he was wandering.
"I was in the marshes. I have
drowned them," the boy said. "It is
the fifth party I have drowned."
"Row did you drown them?"
"I led them astray. They came to
our village. I was the .only one re-
maining there—all the others had
gone. I remained on pOrpose. But,
you see, .they have shot me. I have
been wounded."
"Why?"
"I led them here. When they came
to the village I went to meet them.
They began to name the places around
the village and asked me to slut*
them where these places were. You
need to know every pathway in the
marshes, otherwise, if youshould de-
viate a little, you get into the bogs,
and the more you struggle the deeper
you sink. I led them quite wrong.
I am small and light. I have a pole
and I can skip across the tufts of
grass. Then I know a place where
the ground is harder; near some
trees. The Germans were stout and
heavy, and they sank deeper and
deeper into the mud and screamed at
inc. Then I laughed and they fired
on me in their rage; but they sank
deeper, mid as I hid behind the trees
I watched them disappear."
"See the young woff cub who saw
People drowning under his eyes!" a
Cossack said.
"If I am a wolf cub,' what are
they?" the_boy said. "What olid they
do to ray mother?" And he Wel a ter-
rible story of the Germans. He had
promised to evenge her. "I aid not
want to. wait until I grew up," he
said. "I wanted to take my revenge
now. She died at the hands of the
Germans, let them olie, too. When I
get well I shall continue to drown
them."

Cover Up Their Tartan .
During the South African War an
order was issued to the men of the
Highland regiments to cover up their
tartan kilts, as they made good tar-
gets for the enemy. The order prov-
ed very 'unpopular, and caused a
great deal of dissatisfaction among
the soldiers concerned. When Sir
George White heard this he said, "Let
them cover up only the front of their
kilts; the enemy will never see the
other side!" .

After 2 Years' Useless Treatment.
•
The healing power or Zant-Duk is so
much greater than that or other taint•
ments, that it has cured in 'tally cases
when all other ointments have failed.
One such instance is that of Mr. Earle
E. Gardiner, of Marquis, Sask., who
writes: "For two years I suffered
with a bad attack of salt -rheum on my
feet. During those two years I tried
every known remedy, but could find
nothing that would cure the disease.
Then 1 heard of Zatn-Btik, and com-
menced using it. After the first few
applications I noticed an improve-
ment, and this encouraged me to con-
tinue, Although I had suffered for
•two years, after only two months'
treatment with Zam-Duk I am com-
pletely cured."
Zam-Bilk is equally good for eczema,
ulcers, abscesses, blood -poisoning, piles,
cold sores, chapped hands, chilblains,
eruptions, etc. At all drug stores, 500.
