Is reported as being hard pressed
by the Arabs.
The Arab e who attacked the
Italians' rear on Monday had en-
tered Tripoli in disguise, and their
outbreak caused a terrible panic.
Firing in the streets was general.
Non-combatant men, women and
children were mixed up with the
combatants. Crowds flocked to the
shore and embarked in small boats.

is described as lei and the
Italiau outpost re nervous. The
military arrangements are bad. The
whole force occupies a semi-el:role,
whose ends rest On the seashore.
There are no reserves in the town
and only two warships remain off
the city. The left wing is AIR hard
pressed, and if it be broken the
situation will be as grave as pos-
sible. The Consuls are realizing
the possibility of the breaking of
the left wing and fear that a mas-
sacre will follow. They are arrang-
ing for Europeans to board efr,
if it becomes necessary.
Fresh troops to the nuinber of 1,-
100 with thirty guns arrived on
Wednesday and landed near Sher-
zet to strengthen the left. It is re-
ported that 5,000 Tuareg tribesmen
are advancing on Tripoli and an-
other battle is expected.
The Arabs on Thursday made a
violent attack against the Italian
positions between El Mesri and
Boumeliana. They were repulsed
with heavy loss. The Italian casu-
alties were only a few wounded.

pale instead of being scarlet;
you are easily tired and freqeent,

More weak, anaemic people have
been made strong, energetic and

Pink Pills than by any other means.
They actually make new blood,
which reaches every part of the
body, bracesthe nerves and bringS
new health and new strength. The
case of Miss Nellie Welch, Essex,
Ont., is proof of the great curative
powers of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
Miss Welch says: "A few years ago
I was going into what ray friends
believed to be a hopeless decline.
I was subject to, severe headaches,
had no appetite, was pale, and grew
distressingly weak. I tried several
doctors, some of whom we counted
the best in this part of the oona-
try, but they failed to help me. At
last my heart grew so weak and I
was so nervous and thin that I had
to take to my bed and the doctor
held out but little hope for my re-
covery. Like others, I had often
read of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,
and though the doctor opposed my
taking them I determined to give
them a trial, as I felt I might as
well be dead as to be living in the
misery I was in. In a month aftet
beginning to take the tills I was
up and around again, and steadily
growing stronger until I was again
enjoying the blessing of perfect
health. Several years have since
elapsed and my health has been the
very best. It is therefore with
great gratitude that I write you in
the hope that my experience may
be of benefit to some other suf-
ferer."
