years from neuralgia, and •a general
debility of the nerves and system.
I had tried several doctors and
many medicines, but to no avail un-
til I began Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
At the time I began the Pills I had
grown so bad that I could hardly
be on niy fee+t, and was forced to
wear elastic •bandages about the
ankles. The pain I suffered at
times from the neuralgia was ter-
rible. I had almost given up hope
when I began the use of Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills.. In the course of
a few weeks I felt an improvement,

the Pills until I was once more
quite well and able to attend to all

A ZOUAVE • HERO.
•
He Sacrificed His L- ifeo for Beloved
France.
A rare and stirring incident of per-
sonal heroism is that recorded in
a semiofficial notice given out in Paris
on the 'afternoon of November 23rd.
""The other day in Belgium,,a Ger-
man column was advancirig:'to attack
a position in the forest of Brie, de-
fended by a detachment of Zouaves.
Our men noticed that before thein the
Germans forced k Zouave prisoner,
and at the same time they heard cries
of 'Stop tiring!' For an instant our
riflemen and the men in charge of our
machine guns hesitated. Then from
the German ranks they heard the.
voice of the Zouave prisoner, who cal-
led to them 'shoot comrades!'
"There then flashed out from the
ranks of the Zouaves a general dis-
charge of rifles ant. machine guns.
The fire Laid low the assailants. of the
Zouaves, and with them fell the heroic
soldier whose devotion made it possi-
ble for his countrymen to checkmate
the ruse of the enemy.
"If the name of the brave man is
unknown to the world, at least his
regiment will retain forayer the re-
membrance of his sacrifice, which is
equal to any of the most famous in-
stances of personal heroism recorded
in our glorious history."
His Report.
"What did they say to you ?"
asked little Henry's mother after
his first vieit to the new Sunday
School.
"The teacher said she was glad to
see me there."
"Yes?"
"And she said she hoped I ii oulcl
come every Sunday."
"And was that all she said ?"
"No; she asked ane if our family
belonged to that abomination."

ink; Metz.
Ever since Marshal Bazaine sur-
rendered the capital of Lorraine
certain keys of the gates of Metz,
says the Boston 3era1d haveb
been
held in Paris awaiting the time
when France should • reclaim " the
city, which up to that disastrous
day in 1870 had never been conquer -
eel as a fortress by nn enemy.: '
One of. the centres of conflict to-
day is the region between Metz and
Verdun, and Ie'i'ench aviators are
scenting over the city and dropping
bombs upoti its great'•cirele of.forts.
La Pucelle, as the city has .' been
called because of its impregnability,
is far stronger to -day than half. a
century ago; vet the forts were in-
tact wherl the capitulation yielded
175,00'0. prisoners of war to the Ger-
mans and, left the road . to Paris
open without obstacle to their
troops. A new chain of forts has
been built since 1899, and Metz and"
Strassburg are now the chief fort-
resses of the western frontier of the
German empire.
The man who succeeds in taking
Metz will insure for himself an im-
mortality of fame measurable only
by the depths of chagrin and the
furious auger into which its loss
plunged the people of France. Gam-
betta had escaped from Paris in a
balloon anti was earning the ad-
miration of the World by his super-
human exertions at Tours, Bazaine
had fought well in Algeria, Spain
and the Crimea,, and had been the
leader of the French in Mexico in
the time of Maximilian. Opinions
will ahvays differ as to the degree
of his culpability for the surrender.
of October 27, 1870.
Three years after he was tried by
caurtmantial and sentenced to de-
gradation and death. The sentence
was commuted to imprisonment for
twenty years. Blit the condemna-
tion was doubtless due in part to
the necessity of making some con-
cession to the popular cry for ven-
geance and a victim. Through all
these intervening years the French
people have cherished the memory
of that fallen capital, and, charac-
teristically, they have draped monu-
ments for its fall and treasured the
keys that were brought safely away
when the army of the Rhine n'iareh-
ed out of the gates. No -event would
cause 'such a frenzy of rejoicing
throughout France as the capture
of Metz.' '

A YEAR'S SUFFERER CURED BY
"NERVILINE."
No person reading this need ever
again suffer long from Neuralgia,
Nerviline will cptickly cure the
worst Neuralgia, and Mrs. G. Evans,
in her strong letter written from Rus-
sel post office, says:—"One long year,
the longest of my life,was almost en-
tirely given up to treating dreadful
attacks of Neuralgia. The agony I
experienced during some of the bad
attacks was simply ullnlentionable. To
use remedies by the score without
permanent relief was mighty discour-
aging, At last I put my faith in Ner-
viline; I read of the wonderful pain -
subduing power it possessed and made
up my mind to prove it ,valuable .or
useless. Nerviline at once eased the
pain and cured the headache. Con-
tinuous treatment with this magic -
working remedy cured me entirely
and I have Lver since stayed well."
Mrs. Evan's case is but one of hun-
dreds that might be quoted. Nervi -
line is a specific for all nerve, muscu-
lar or joint pain. It quickly cures
neuralgia, sciatica, lumbago, lame
back, neuritis and rheumatism. Forty

Military Orden at Liege Were
Dated "Liege 1900."
At the University of Liege, which
was all knocked to pieces, I ran
into something that eonvinoed me
beyond doubt of the responsibility
for this war, writes A. E. Cantrell,
an American who recently escaped
from Belgium.
Yellow German military orders
were pasted up in a good many
places. They had the Germane arms
at the top, and were dated from
the city of Liege ; "1906," printed
on the orders, had been crossed out
and "1914" written in with pencil.
The posters were all the same
color, a kind of dark yellow, and of
different shapes and sizes. I saw
them principally around the Place
de l'Opera. They were on regular
bulletin boards and in some eases
pasted to the walls of buildings.
Some were long and narrow, some
broader than they were long, and
some were about the size of a sheet
of paper for typewriting. The post-
ers included orders, such as that no
drinks other and stronger than. beer
and wine should be sold. I remem-
ber one that said persons having
horses for sale might bring them to
a certain place. Every one of the
posters was headed, in German,
"City of Liege." And every one
had the printed •date "1906" crossed
out in blue pencil and "1914" writ-
ten with the same pencil.
The Kaiser was eight years late
getting to Liege.

"When- I was working around the

of Port Richmond. "I was weak for a
long time, but well enough to work
until Lpring. But something went
wrong with my bowels for I had to use
salts or physic all the time. My
stomach kept sour, and always after
eating there was :pain and fulness, and
all the symptoms of intestinal indi-
gestion. Nothing helped me until I
used Dr. Hamilton's Pills. Instead of
hurting, like other pills, they acted
very. mildly, and seemed to heal the
bowels. I did not require large doses
to get results with Dr. Hamilton's Pills,
and feel so glad that I have found a
mild yet certain remedy. To -day I am
well—no pain, no sour stomach, a {
good appetite, able to digest anything.
This is a whole lot of good for one
medicine to do, and I can say Dr.
