The Somme Battle
Thus Far.
A despatch from New York says:
Fredrick Palmer, the War correspond-
ent designated by the British War Of-
fice to represent the entire press of
the United States, returned on Friday
on the Holland -America Line steam-
ship Nieuw Amsterdam, for a rest be-
fore going back to the front,
It is MT. Palmer's opinion that the
allied offensive against the Germans
on the French front will end only
when the war itself ends, that it will
be continued for two, perhaps three
years. He was told by the staff of
the allies that they had no expectation
of breaking the German line thie year.
"There is only one historical com-
parison for the Somme battle -Ver-
dun," said Mr. Palmer. "It has long
since passed Verdun in the intensity
of the fighting, in numbers engaged,
in losses in killed and wounded, and
in volume of artillery fire.
"In the Somme. sector 6,000 British,
French and German guns have been
in action on the same day. Within one
period of 24 hours there have been at
least 150,000 casualties, counting
those of both sides. So far in this
engagement at least 1,500,000 men
have been hit. Next Summer the
British are prepared to lose 1,000,000
men if necessary, and they will have
twice their present gun -power.
"When will the war be over? I only
know that next year will be bloodier
than this. The week before I left
France I talked with General Joffre
and Sim Douglas Haig, and with such
army and corps leaders as Sir Henry
Rawlinson on the Somme, and Gen-
erals Nivelle and Mangin, who plan-
ned and executed the brilliant at-
tacks which recovered Forts Donau,
snout and Vaux at Verdun. Their idea
was the same that I have found every-
where -a fight to a finish." .
DESERTERS GIVEN
ANOTHER CHANCE
-- '-
A despatch from Ottawa says -An
order -in -Council passed under the War
Measures Act, allows a military de-
serter to return to the service on pro-
mising to stay. The regulation pro-
vides that a deserter, who is sentenc-
ed to imprisonment may be turned
over by the court to the military au-
thorities if the offender agrees to re-
turn and not to desert again.
No Use.
"When that bad boy threw stones
at you why didn't you come and tell
me instead of throwing back at him?"
said the good little boy's pious moth-
er.
"Tell you?" said the good little boy.
"Why, you couldn't hit a barn door."

CAPT. GUINNESS
A VERY RICH MAN
RECRUITING IN' CANADA FOR
THE riimmisit NAVY.
-me
He Is a Famous Oarsman and Mem-
ber of British House of
Commons.
Captain Rupert Guinness, M.P., who
is in Canada for the purpose of rais-
ing six thousand men for the British
navy, is an Irishman who was born in
London some forty-two years ago.
Moreover, as the eldest sow and heir
of Viscount Iveagh, the richest man
in Ireland, he will himself, in due
course, become Ireland's richest man.
Of illimitable • prospectine wealth,
Captain Guinness has been blessed in speakers near Marble Arch inaLondon

many othemrespects beyond the or-
dieary lot of men. He is very good
to look at -a fine specimen of man-
hood, with a frank clear-cut face and
a sensible head set on sturdy shoul-
ders. As an oarsman his name is a
household' word, and he is, besides,
a good ghat and a skilled yachtsman,
He ie a member of Parliament for
South-east Essex, and was formerly
member for the Haggerston division,
one of the poorest parts of London.
He has also served on the London
County Council and on the London
Education Committee. He served in
South Africa during the war. Thus
it will be seen that he is dowered
with the gift of public service, as
well as with many more of fortune's
best gifts. As a politician he is a
strong Unionist -an Irishman, if a,
Unionist, is usually a strong one -but
his frank, cheery, breezy personality is the "Government," subject only
makes him popular with men of all to the All -Highest will of the Em -
parties. He is certainly an excellent peror, whose bidding the Chancellor
ONE-MAN RULE IN ,GERMANY.
Reichstag is Alcrely a Debating
So-
ciety' anti Safety Valve.
D. Thornaa- Curtin, who spent ten
months in Germany for the London
Daily Mail, writes as follows in a re-
cent article:
Although Bismarck gave the Ger-
mares a constitution and a Parliament
after the Franeo-Prussian war as a
pop for their sacrifices in that cam-
paign, he never intended the Reich-
stag to be a Parliament in the sense
in which the institution is understood
in Great )3ritain.
What 13ismarcn 'gave the Germane
was a debating society and a safety
valve. They needed a place to air
their theories and ventilate their
grievances.But the Chancellor of
Iron was very careful in drawing up
the plans for the "debating society"
to see that it conferred no more real
power on the nation's "representa-
tives" than is enjoyed by the stump.
Many people In England and the
United States of America, I find, do
not ut all understand the meaning-
lessness of German parliamentary
proceedings. Governments do not
fall in Germany in consequence of ad-
verse Reichstag votes, as they do
with you. They are not the people's
Governments, but merely the Kaiser's
creatures. They rise and fall by his
grace alone.
The German Government is a one-
man affair. It consists of the Imperial
Chancellor. All his Secretaries of
State -dor War, for the Admiralty,
for the Treasury, for the Post Office,
and what not ---are responsible directly
to him, and to him alone. They have
no initiative of their own and no
authority except that derived from
the Chancellor. He, and nobody else,
,candidate on a platform, his person- is required to do, and, in the case of
ality being worth a lot of votes • to a weak statesman like Bethinann,..

him. In Lady Gwendolen Guinness,
daughter of Lord Onslow, who was
president of the Board of Agricul-
ture in Mr. Balfour's Administra-
tion, he has a wife of great charm
and popularity.
Modest and Manly.
Captain Guinness is as modest as
he is manly. The name of Guinness
is a name that is known all over the
world. But, personally, none of the
family are in the habit of advertising
themselves. Lord Iveagh himself is
a very reticent man. He stands very
high, it is known, in the personal con-
fidence of the King. And not without
reason. For his character is a re-
markably fine one. He is a thorough
man of business, but his kind-hearted-
ness and munificence are proverbial.
He is a man of wide culture, and is
Chancellor of Dublin University. His
mind is both keen and discriminating.
Among his interests art and art col-
lecting are pre-eminent, and his fam-
ily shares these 'interests. His Lon-
don house 5 Grosvenor place, is liter-
ally packed with art treasures. So is
Elveden Hall, his place in Suffolk.
In Ireland the Guinness family is
Very popular. The Dublin business
gives employment to vast numbers,
and that the Guinness, employes are
treated'well is a fact that:is appre-
ciated throughout the country:,
Lord Iveagh was_made a Peen in
1801, his oldest brother, Loyd Arch-
• loun, haying been raised to the Peer-
age eight years previously. It was
their fatherand the grandfather of
Capt. Rupert Guinness -the late Sir
Benjamin Lee Guinness, himself both
a brewer and the son of it brew', •
who started the 'development on its
present vast scale of a cancan
which, in the early mart of the last
century, was only allocal one. For he
started exporting the storit which he
brewed. And he exported to consider-
able purpose.
This is evidenced by -the fact that
when he died, in 1868, his personal
estate alone was valued at over $5,-
000,000. That was Half a century ago,
before the days of multi -millionaires.
Since then, fortunes in general have
increased, and so has the Guinness
fortune in particular.

brother of Capt. Rupert Guinness, and
also a great rowing celebrity, is

KEUPP'S NEW SCHEME.
,
Plan to Make Germany the First
Shipping Power. .
Mr. C. VT. Brett, managing director
of Barimar, Ltd., scientific welding
engineers writes as follows in the
London Chronicle:
• Germany's intention to obtain an
initial advantage in the fight for the
world's trade is plainly seen in the so-
cial and economic reconstruction that
has been proceeding throughout the
Fatherland side by side with the coun-
try's gigantic efforts on all the war
fronts. In nothing is this idea of
Germany more plainly' seen than in
the latest scheme announced, by which
the great armoring firm of Krupp,
with its scores of thousands of mech-
anics, is to be linked up with the
North German Lloyd Steaniship lines.
The Essen firm has now purchased an
interest in the steamship company,
and one of its directors is to have a
seat on the board.
This adroit move is not a mere pri-
vate commercial transaction. It has
a much wider significance of which
we, in this country, should take- due
note. While Teuton submarines have
been busily engaged sending to the
bottom as many British ships as pos-
sible, existing German craft have been
safely intereed in home or neutral
ports. Meanwhile German shipbuild-
ers have been steadily building new
vessels for thq, mercantile marine,
some of them of 20,000 tonnage.
It is Germany's ambition to emerge
from the war, even if beaten, as the
first shipping power in the world, and
the new link forged between Essen
works arid Bremen shine is another
move in a well -matured plan to real-
ize this aim.
OXYGEN ODDLY APPLIED.
Replaces Bandages in London Mili-
tary Hospital.
Many wonderful examples of new
and approved appliances and methods
of treatment are to be seen at the
military hospitals. In an interesting
article a London correspondent thus
describes some of them:
At Queen Alextuidrit's Military Hos-
pisal I saw several patients under-
going a new healing treatment, Two
of these men were most severely
wounded in September of last year,
and for ten months had :been treated
in the customary way without any
sign of healing. On August 2 they
were brought to Millwall, the band-
ages were flung away, the wounds
were subjected to repeated applica-
tions of a etream of ozone, being
lightly covered with is loose layer of
lint in the intervals, and in four
days healing was in rapid progress.
ThiS treatment is SiMplicity itself.
Oxygen passes frons It reservoir into
an electrical machine which converts
it into ozone; the ozone flows out
through a tine metal tube, The Man
chine is wheeled close to the patient's
bed, the wound uncovered, and a
stream of the microbe -killing ozone,
flows into the deepest recesses. No
painful dragging eff of bendages, no
rebandaging of the Itaib to hurt and
exhaust the patient.. I SaWe here a
soldier who had lost Ins right foot,
with a stump covered with skin so
healthy and .nard that he could walk
upon it, a surgical marvel.

OLD BRITISH
• ARMY SOLDIERS
MANY. OF THEM STILL IN THE
SERVICE.
They Did Not Disappear, Worn Out,
As It 'Was Generally
Supposed.
What has happened to the old Brit-
ish army which fought at Mons? The
general public thinks eft as a fusee
now greatly multiplied but still fight-
,ing out battles on the line from the
Yser to the Somme. As a matter of
fact the old army, as an army, dis-
appeared long ago: They did not dig -
appear, a worn-out, decimated rem-
nant utterly exhausted by the retreat
and the subsequent thrust of the
Marne, and Aisne, as tbote at home
seem to think. Instead, they have
.gradually been swallowed up by death
and the new armies.
Because of the individuals making
up the heroic little band of French's
command have slipped out of the
newspapers and the public eye it does
not mean that they arc all used or
out of the service. The casualties
suffered by the original 'British ex-
peditionary force was singularly light
as one counts casualties to -day.
When trench warfare began a large
number of men from Mons were_still
in line. The greater part of those
veterans who have laid their arms
aside because of death, sickness, or
mounds have done so since the dead-
lock came.
What They Are Doing.
Taken on the whole a surprisingly
large percentage of old army officers
and men are still in harness. Where
are they? Some are drilling recruits
in England. The majority of the rest
have finished fighting and are
working at the base and in railway
stations, supply centres, ammunition
depots, repair shops, offices, canteens,
and similar places.
The officers, with the exception of,
a few who still lead men into battle,
have left the trenches and, rising to
big things, occupy the high positions
to which their superior experience,
knowledge, and training entitle them.
Those who have remained with the
combatant troops have been promot-
ed to ranks of which they never
dreamed in days of peace.
The men do odd jobs around the
base. They help the railway trans-
port officers -veterans these -in their
work. They superintend the handling
of ammunition guns, rifles, wagons,
clothing, and all the countless equip-
ment of an army in the field. They
do orderly -room merle And a few of
them act as servants to the officers
with whom they did duty before the
war.
Leading New Armies.
Sometimes the masters ann the
servants speak of old times together,
but veiny seldom. As the officer
dresses a regiment goes by the win-
dow of his billet. With his servant
he watches them until the last man
has passed and the wail of the fife
has died in the distance.
"Well, what do you think of them,
Jones?" the officet asks.
"Them ?".Jones says. "Oh, they're
all right, sir. But," impressively,
"they're not the boys as we used to
meet on Salisbury Plain!"
"No, they are not."
And then they change the subject,
lest it should conjure up sad thoughts.
Those who led the old armn are
leading the new. armies to -day. They
have Seen their battalions swell to
brigades and their brigades to divi-
sions. They have taken the raw
youth of the British Islands and
watched them gradually change from
ignorant civilians to hard, rough
troops very nearly the equal of the
men they used to command.

Catarrh is as much -a blood disease

be relieved, but it cannot be removed
by Simply local trentment. It causes

BRITISH WIN
IN MACEDONIA
Village Which the Greeks Sue' -
rendered to Bulgars
Captured.
A despatch from London says: -
The Entente 'unities operating in
Macedonia have made 'additional pro-
gress. The capture by the British of
the Town of Barakii, on the eastern
end of the Macedonian front, is an-
nounced officially. Barakli is 1St
miles southeast of Baralcli-Juma,
which the British captured recently
in renewing the offensive along the
Struma front. This part of the Mace-
donian campaign is being fought in
north-eastern Greece, over the ground
which the Bulgarians occupied several
months ago, taking over Greek forts
and establishing themselves well to
the east of the allies' right flank.
After eeveral abortive attempts, the
British forced a pasage of the Struma
and have now occupied a number of
towns, pushing eastward about foss*
miles beyond the river at some points.
The Franco -Serbian offensive also
continues with full success.

A despatch from Alliston sayst
Hon. James S. Duff, Minister of Agri-
culture for Ontario, dropped dead on
Friday in the home of an old friend,
'Miss Sarah Irwin, of this town. Hems,
had returned in the morning from To..r
route to his home in Cookstown, and.
in the afternoon drove over in hist
carriage by himself to take Miss Ir-
win back with him. As he was about
to sit in front of a fire in Miss IrwiMS
home to warm himself he dropped to
his knees and lapsed into unconscious-
ness. A doctor was summoned, but
the heart condition from which the
Hon. Mr. Duff had long suffered had
apparently- caused instant death. The
news of the death of his son, Pte, G.
Clark Duff, who went overseas with
the 76th Battalion, came a fortnight
ago on the day following his return
to his duties as Minister of Agricul-
ture after a lengthy vacation made
necessary through ill -health.
ANGRY FOE GENERAL
FINES TOURNAI TOWN.
200,000 Marks Imposed Because a List
of Males is Not. Furnished.
A despatch from London says:
Thirty thousand Belgians already
have been deported to Germany, ac-
cording to information received here
through official channels. Reports
from the same sources say that the
German plan was to take some 800,-
000, judged from the order issued in
a number of cities for all males over
seventeen to report for inspection.
The Municipal Council of Tournai has
formally declined to accede to the
German demand, the reports say, pro-
testing that hitherto it had ac-
quiesced to all the German orders.
General Hopffer thereupon imposed a
fine of 200,000 marks, it is added, Art
the refusal of the Council to furnish
a list of male inhabitants, with a fur-
ther fine of 20,000 marks daily as long
as the Council refused to give the list.
A man who trusts no one doesn't
know what real disappointment is.
No man ever got a pain in his back
from carrying his neighbor's burd-
ens.
