London, Eng., Sept. 22.—The first and most obvious step is to introduce. a new spirit into the conduct of pub- lic affairs. In ordinary times the real ruler of the eountry is public opinion, slowly evolved under the ceaseless hammer of political controversy, and slowly passed into law through the ponderous machinery of Parliament. The Goverement of the day is coin - posed of party leaders primarily con- cerned to carry into effect a certain Programme of reform, and the people I obey them because they are part of I the eonstitutional machinery rather than because they command any au- thority in themselves. War intro- duces us to a new world. Speed and efficiency, secrecy and the withholding of information useful to the enein ere essential to success. Public op • lon is, therefore, dethroned, for it neither time nor material with wh forniulate sound judgments. T imposes upon both Government a people a totally new set of responsi- bilities. It requires of the Govern- ment a new quality of leadership, and of the People a new kind 'of loyalty and obedience. e people, at home or in the field 'carries out that fraction of service which falls to its lot ivith loyalty and determination to the mid. This raises at once the contentious subject Of military sereiee. In order to mobilise the whole available man- hood of the country for military pur- poses, shOuld WC reeort to compulsory methods of enlistment? To this ques- tion there can, only he one , answer. Whether or not it is required the Gov- ernment, which knows the facts and the need, alone can decide. But if it judges such a measure necessary, then we have no option but to give it the powers it asks. The function of the community in the matter is not to force the hand of the Government one way or, the other, but to make -it un- derstand that it is willing to accept any method of enlistment for military service which it considers necessary to win the war. There lute, in the past, been. muchin- piisunderstanding about national milie has tary service of this kind. On the one ich hand it hes been treated as though it his 1 involved the permanent introdection nd of Continental conscription. Theeneae sure which may be necessary in order to.complete the mobilization of a na- tional army, by far the greater part of which is already voluntarily en- listed, ought not, and indeed cannot, have anything 'to do with' military organization after the war. That is ! an entirely separate question, and it le one which Will be' determined not y any Acts we may pass now, but by our success or failure in the war itself. The one thing which would make conscription certain would be the triumph of the Prussian ideals of force and war. • On the other hand, compulsory ser- vice has been objected to on the ground that it is inconsistent with the free principles of the British Consti- tution won in long, centuries of strug- gle. This objection is based on a mis- apprehension. rt implies that what is proposed is that an arbitrary Govern- ment should begin to coerce an un- willing people by force. That is im- possible in a democratic country. No Government 'could survive, even in war, which proposed to undo in any way the constitutional work of the last two hundred years and put power back permanently - into autocratic hands. Nationtil military service in- volves an act of a totally different kind. It is one which only the peon hemselves can enact. It can b rought into force only if the people eclat.° by a deliberate Act of Parlia- ment that, as a nation, they authorize he Governmenteto take the necessary teps. Such a measure however, though oluntarily accepted by the nation, nd imposed by popular consent; does we've two things. It ends tempor- rily the voluntary system, to far as ilitary service is concereed, and with the fundamental merit of the sYs- m, that it places the responsibility r judging where his duty lies and r clbing it, squarely on the individual a responsibility usually only exer- sed in national affairs at the ballot' x. It also involves a temporary in- reerence with the normal liberty of tion of the citizen. But there are 'nos wlien it is necessary to sacrifice erty temporarily in order that it ay be preserved in the long run. ery soldier who has enlisted in this r has sacrificed his Personal liberty, and subjected himself to a most some discipline, in order that a g caese may be served thereby; an a national crisis it may be neces for a whole people to do the s The state itself is not organized the voluntary principle. People not given any option about obe the ordinary law. The -State, libe civilization itself, would cease to e unless the law, representing the c mon judgment about social relati and social rights and duties, w binding on all. And the State can fight a war in which its honor and very existence are at stake unless citizens are willing to make milit service of the State no longer a ni he Government for the time being is in the position of dictator. It alone has full keqwledge. It is freed from eriticisin of the Usual deetructiVe and • embarrassing kind. Unless it takes • upon itself to act on its own initiative, • unless it proposes, regardless of popu-, larity or outcry, any and every mea- sure which it may consider necessary eo win the war, unless it insists on , prompt and complete obedience to the national law, it is failing to discharge he functions of a national executive. In time of war the primary duty of the Government is to govern, and this ls, a reeponsibility which it can neither escape nor 'share. ' But if the Government is to pet as it should the people on their side must give it loyalty and obedience and that means that they must voluntarily put themselves under orders till the end of 1 the war. No body of men can co- • operate for a common purpose if each one is free to work or not as he . chooees, and to choose what work he' should do. They must elect an execu- tive committee and give it the power to allot the work between all accord- ing to a single plan of action and ac- t cording to their • several capacities. b Each must then do his appointed task d faithfully and punctually. Only so sin a machine be made to work, whe- t • thee it be human or of steel. Only so s can an army manoeuvre so as to de- feat its enemy. And Only so can a v • nation make War to the utmost of its a capaeity, If it means business in the it war it must freely and of its own a accord, submit itself to the irksome m restraints of national discipline. Mr. it Lloyd George, speaking on July 29th; te enunciated this principle with great fo clearness:— t fo "We have (he said] but one ques- — tion to ask ourselves—we of all ranks, ei of all grades, and all trades. Are we bo doing- enough to secure victory, be- te cause victory means life for our coun- ac try? It means the fate of freedom ti for ages to come. There is no price lib which is too great for us to pay that in is Within our power. There is too Ev much disposition to cling to the -amen- wet „ itis of peace. ,Business as usual, en- joyment as usual, fashions, lockouts, strikes, ca' canny, sprees — all as usual. Wages must go up, profits must also improve, but prices must at all costs be kept down. You will for- give me, I ars sure, for speaking quite _ plainly. No man must be called mien • to serve the State unless he wants to; even then he has only to be called upon to do exactly what he would like to do—not what he is fit for, not what he is chosen for, but what he himself would like to do. A man who could • render more. service by turning out • munitions must be allowed to go to the front if he prefers to, and the man who would be better at the front must be allowed to stay at home if he feels more comfortable there. Freedom, af- ter all, implies the right to shirk. Freedom implies the right for you to • enjoy and for others_ to defend. Is that freedom? - "War is like a fever, a deadly fe. tree in your veins, and the rules which are applicable in health are utterly •• unsuited to a fever. Restraints which would be irksome, stupid and unneces- sary when a man is healthy are essen- tial to save his life in a fever. What Is the use of the patient saying: '1 , must have meat as usual, drink ,as usual, in fact more than usual, be- cause I am thirstier than usual. X have a high temperature so I am more parched than usual; there is a Ins' o greater strain on my strength, so I I in Hi does really ought to have more than usual. IT I want to go out, why should I be I same confined to that little bed? Freedom jog -t above all.' 'But you will die.' 'Ale 1 , thee le says, it is more glorious to die a free man than to live in bondage.' • Let Britain be beaten and discredited and dishonored, but let no man say that any Briton during the war was ever forced to do anything for his . country except that which was pleas - hag in his own sight. Ah! Victory is e s not on that road." •filled If we age to exert our full national Me li I strength_ in the w,ar, we must decide (Silent] to act much more as if we were an conte Joints Quit Aching Soreness Goes Away NO MORE STIFFNESS, PAN OR MISERY IN YOUR BACK OR SIDE OR LIMBS!

British Negligent. Those who have seen them and who are qualified to judge, assume from the speed and entries of the machine that these engines are the ordinary 100 horsepower engines used in most of the German machines. In connection with this sudden ap- pearance of German aeroplanes with • multiple engines and of large size, it is worth while noting that fully two years ago Gen. Henderson, then and now commanding the Royal FlYidg Corps, stated on more than one occa- sion at the semi-public meetings of the Aeronautical Society that one type of aeroplane necessary for the full equipment of the Flying Cops was a big machine with more than one en- gine. He was particularly insistent on the need for more than one engine, so that if one engine broke down the other one, or °thee's, would be able to keep the machine in the air, Gen. Henderson's opinion was back- ed up by various other officers of the Flying Corps, yet in spite of this we have the extraordinary position that after the appearance of the first of these big German aeroplanes, Mr. Tennant, the 'Under Secretary for War, announces that we have multi- ple -engined aeroplanes in course of construction. 1 It seems fairly obvious that the German authorities paid more atten- tion to the opinions of those in Bris thin who svere best qualified to judge, of the development of military aero- planes than did the British authori- ties.

New One Built in England a Rolling Hospital and Hotel. y!• The latest thing in train arnbu- st lances, built by the London & North - ss Western Railway at a cost of some $35,000 for service in France, is quite the moseperfect of the kind ever seen. The train, whose carriages all con- nect so that on a straight line one can look Along 800 feet of corridor, is steam heated and electric lighted throughout, while every car is pro- vided with electric ventilating fans. The two kitchens, marvels of compact equipment, aroused much enthusiasm. They will supply the wounded men as soon as they are brought on board with hot drinks and soup, to be fol- lowed later with delicious stews and more substantial fare. The treatment room has medical stores, a long table, and all requisites for operations. There aro linen rooms, a pharmacy, and a kit room for the officers, who have a very comfortable .mess-roorn, matched by a second mess -room for the four army nurses assigned to each train. The staff consists of 42, in- cluding the cooks—who have their own quarters—end the orderlies, who lodge four in a compartment and have a long, cheerful dining car. • Tanks in the roof supply the wards and kitchen with htindreds of gallons of water. • The special feature of these trains is the separate ward for infectious cases fitted to the brake van, •Tlic- arrangement of the berths in the wards set aside for lying down cases is also new. The berths, which can be raised like those in an ordinary sleeping car, are arranged in tiers of three, with the advantage that 36 men can be conefortablY settled in each ward. As in all the specially -built trains, these cars are loaded through doore at the side instead of through the open windows, whech was the pld tyle. The two trains just finithed are part of a fleet of 24 w,hich carry British - wounded from the front to the base hospitals and the ports in France. •' But The British is born with an equable exper and composed temperament, writes W. some Douglas Newton in the Royal Magee sidiou zine.

If the national effort is to be successful as a whole, it will be because our leaders are resolute and strong arid because every section of state he contimies the habit.

Bosom Friend. As a boy Sir John Jellicoe, Admiral of the Grand Fleet, attended a school at Rottingclean; the little Sussex vil- lage, four miles from Brighton. Apart from the fact that he was a hard worker, Jellicoe was undistinguished from other sboys. • He was known, however, as a boy of exceptionally high character, and successfully pasee ed the very difficult examination evhich was necessary in those days to secure admission to the Britannia. Professor 1VfaaNaughton, who was at school with Jellicoe, says that the admiral possessed a large capacity for fun, "and he was certainly distin- guished beyond any of my contem- poraries at school with a fund of ori- ginality of which I remember one par- ticularly striking instance. Young Jellicoe had just entered the school, and being a new boy, he had to make his way in the world of schOol-life. Re proceeded in an eminently original Way. "There was a senior boy in the school," continues the professor, "whose name, 11 think, was Ingram. Now, those who know anything about school life will know that it is hedged about with all sorts of rules and points of etiquette, and that it is ex- tremely difficult for a new boy, espe- cially at his first corning, to gain the friendship or conedence of one who has already an established place in the school. But John Jellicoe had evidently determined that it was worth while to cultivate the friendship of this senior boy; and he set &mut it in the following very original way: "A game of football WaS being played in the afternoon on the small playing field which lay within the school precincts. On one occasion the bell went out of bounds, and eellithe went to fetch it. Instead of throwing it back in the ordinary manner, he ran back with the ball M his hand, and, on corning close to Ingram, made a neat drop-kick, so that the ball bounded against him with some force. There was a shout of laughter and applause, and away ran eellicoe, pur- sued by Ingram, to a corner of the field, where they indulged for some moments in a friendly tussle before. resuming the game. "From that day Jellicoe and Ingram became bosom friends, and though this trivial incident occurred more than forty years ago, it has always remained in my memory. T do not in- deed remember, either at this or at any other of the schools where I was educated, any instance of equally suc- easeful, awl original boyish diplo- macy." bt Evasive.

Though a Spendthrift Realized Advan- tages of Thrift. ' The poet Goldsmith, though his works prove him to have been a man of almost unprecedented politic'al in- sight, could not manage his own af- fairs. He was always in debt, and the more he received for his writings, whieh were even more popular in his life time than they are to -day, the more lie spent and the more debt he incurred. At his death he owed no lees than two thousand pounds, which, allowing fo r the greater purchasing power of money in that day, 'would be equal at least to twenty thousand dol- lars now. The great Samuel Johnson, Goldsmith's friend and benefactor, might well exclaim, as he did, "Was ever poet so trusted beforee" But, though Goldsmith wap a spendthrift, he realized. the advantages of that thrift which, could he have practised it, would have rnade hen his own mas- ter instead of the slave of publiehers and money-lendersWriting to a bro- ther about the training ofe his son, Poor Goldsmith said: "Teach, my dear sir, to your son thrift and economy. Let his poor wandering uncle's exam- ple be placed before his eyes. I hall contracted. the habits and notions of a Philosopher while I was exposing my- self to the insidious approaches oif conning; and often by being, even With my narrow finances, Charitable to excess I fingot the rules of justice, and placed myself in the•very situa- tion of the wretch who thanked me for my bounty." GREATLYDISCOURAGED OVER BABY'S ILLNESS Mrs. Jos. Gaudreau, Notre Dame des Bois, Que., writes: "Last autumn our baby was very sick and we were greatly discouraged. The doctor did not seem able to help hien, and we be- gan using Baby's. Own Tablets, which soon made him a fat, healthy child." Thousaeds of other mothers give Baby's Own Tablets the same praise. The Tablets regulate the stomach arid bowels, break up colds and simple fe- vers, expel worms, cure colic, and make teething easy, They are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co,, Brockville, Ont. LORD KITCHENER'S TASK. He Is Making Ready for the Knock- out Blow. It is puzzling many what we doing with the armies we have ra ed. Everyone expected certain aeti ties when we had reached' a certa strength, and in more than one infi ential quarter the feeling has be expressed that Lord Kitchener shou now' take his true position as Bri ein's foremost soldier, writes an En lish correspondent. I believe that the elation would almost unanimous in transferrir, Kitchener to the field, but we mu first of all be sure that his work home is finished. He set out tope form what seemed an impossible tasl namely, the raising of an army num bered not by thousands but by mi hens. There was only one man i Britain capable of even tackling tha job—Kitchenet. That task is not yet finished, fo Lord Kitchener will make one mot. appeal—and it will be the last. Marl that. The register will be his guid as to the number of men he will as for, and liwknows that the call will b answered. He is in no great hurry t make that call, for Tightly we ar now dealing with arms before th man, and certain events may eve happen that will enable the Allies t win victory at present strength; bo it is well known in military circles that Lord Kitchener will not considee his work at the War Office done until Britain has a reserve superior to any of the Great Powers, Lord Kitchener is tho silent man of war, and he is making ready, for the knock -out blow. We have not yet re- taliated upon the Germans with a weapon like the poison gas, but that does not mean that we cannot. Kitchener is not only building up armies, he is creating weapons and preparing surprises. The scientist and the inventor have leen called up by Britain's strong man. When the hour comes to employ the new weap- ons and the new armies Germany will do more than talk of peace, then Kitchener will take his true position as leader of the Britieh Army in the west. ,11anuative eentment nelleves Neuralgia, By rising' two hours earlier every morning than you are accestomed to you would, in forty years, add ten years of eight-hour days to your life. are '5- vi - in 0- en Id t- g - be st at r- 5, n o pAiates Pon, Farm. , , 1 P LOOXING POR A PARM, 00N.l .1. suit me.„.
