Strong criticism etas been voiced against J!'ather Bernard Vaughan, the. famous preacher, for having advise the Britisle soldiers from the pulpit t eerie the Germans instead of being kill ed bar ,.them, Several letters of pro test having; been peinteel in the Lon don -Daily Graphic the following re ply was sent to thee paper by Fatten Vaughan from Manchester: "A clipping from your ente pl is ing and 'clear sighted paper contains let tern from the Rev. F. B. Meyer and the Rev. J. IL Newsham -Taylor blaming me for advising our troops to kill the enemy instead of being killed by him. Truth to tell, till I read Dr. Meyer's letter I had no no- tion that! 'r e considered it a `miefcir- tune' to kill Germans. "In my stupidity I had always felt it was a misfortune to miss them; I had no idea that soldiers in war were to be regarded as police on their beat; in me simplicity I was umiei the im- pression that our troops had gone to the front, not to taken') and handcar the aggressor, but, on the contrary, to wipe him out and do for hien. In- deed, in my reading of the situation I had never regarded the enemy in the light of z. beu'i lar bent on ',a g' only, but ra.thee as an assassin under or- ders to murder, massacre and man- gle widows and children, leaving them nothing but their eyes to weep with. "Of course if Dr, Meyer's conten- tion is right I must confess to being quite wrong. In other words, if our artillery i5 not out primarily to find the range for killing our foe, but only to shoot or frighten blaek beetles, rabbits and mosquitoes, my advice to kill Germns is altogether out of place. "As for our friend the rector of St. Peter's,. Hatton Garden, the Rev. New- sham -Taylor, and his rooted conviction Haat it ill beseems ecclesiastical lips. to advise killing Germans, I must Make bold to say to him in reply that the only reason that I can discover for the unseemliness of such advice is that it is unbecoming a minister of religion to speak the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. "Sir, with Joffre and Kitchener, French and Haig, I beg once more bo raise my voice reminding my country- men that victory can be ours in one way only, by artillery attrition. And I •find that the chief reason why our war lords to -day are so sanguine about peace rooted in triumph over the foe is that our artillery is now better than leis. As a plain English- man, I understand this to mean we can kill off the enemy quicker than he Woman .es Message t1. TELLS SUFFERING WOMEN TO ° USE DOI)I)'S KIDNEY PILLS. -I Mrs. F. J. Garlis, Who Suffered With ae k I;aehe, Says That the Results r She Got From Dodd's Kid}fey Pills IWere Wonderful. - t Stewart Valley, Sask., April 3rd. (Special.)—Mrs. F. J, Garlis, wife of I an estimable resident of this place, ' is enthusiastic in her praises of Dodd's Kidney Pills. 1 "Dodd's Kidney Pills have helped me wonderfully," Mrs. Garlis says in an interview. "A year ago I was so bad with my back I could hardly move. I took four boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and they helped me more than I can tell you." Mrs. Garbs is now able to attend to her household duties as well as nurse her fine big baby bay and she feels; that she cannot recommend Dodal- Kidney Pills too highly. Backache is the bane of the average woman's life. It is accompanied by al weakness and lassitude that• makes :life a burden. But thousands of wo- men all ever Canada are telling their suffering sisters that relief and cure is to be found in Dodd's Kidney Pilie. They cure the kidneys and nine -tenths 1 of women's ills come from diseased or rdored ki1neys. us. it our tvonconxol'mists ministers had only exhorted their followers to join the colors in the language of Jof- fre and Roberts instead of in the hesitating terms of Meyer and New- sham -Taylor I venture to think we should now still be under the volun- tary system instead of saddled with a compulsion bill. "Sir, unless our troops are out • at the front to kill Germans let them come home and get killed with us. They won't have to wait long." FRENCH SERVICE STRIPES. May Be for Number of Battles or Years With Army. Private soldiers wearing upon the sleeve narrow stripes of gilt or color- ed braid similiar to the "chevron" of the noncommissioned officers have be- come common on the streets of Paris of late, arousing considerable curio- sity. urio-s ity. These stripes are what are call-, ed "brisques," They were won be- fore the revolution by private soldierei who had to their credit eight years or more of service in the army. These men were called "briscards," and when they wore three of these stripes on the same sleeve they were accepted as the distinguishing characteristic of a man extremely touchy on points of - honor. The "bisques" were instituted by the monarchy of the 17th century; ef- faced by the revolution, they were re- instated by the First Consul as re- sponding to a psychological need of the First Empire, the Restoration, .the Second Republic and the Second Em- pire; the Third Republic having 'aboi- i hed re -enlistments of privates in the army excepting with the rank of a subordinate officer, the object of the ::tripes disappeared. They have now been authorized by some general of- ficers at the front to be worn as a badge of continuous service for a considerable period, or as indicating the number of battles in which the wearer was engaged, or the number of wounds received, Some officers have prohibited then; but the question has reached the War Office, where uni form stripes in some form will he authorised to be worn by privates who .have served a sufficient time in the trenches.

No profession in Great Britain has 'responded more patriotically to the call to arms than that of journalism,, says the New York Times.

So far 55 newspapermen -soldiers have been killed in battle, 71 have been wounded, and 11 are reported miss ing.

Young Germans Threatened Who Squander 'Their Earnings, Compulsory saving has been intro- duced on a small scale in at least One district of Germany. This is revealed in an order issued by the military commander of the district of Cassel, famed as an early schooling place of Emperor 'William. The order is aimed at tete extrava- gance of young men and boys who are earning high wages in war industries The order recites that young men in receipt of swollen war earnings 'have in many cases been leading profligate lives and sometimes neglecting to support dependent relatives. In some places, it is observed, boys have been seen lighting their cigarettes with paper money, which is issued in de- nominations as small as 25 and 50 cents, As this class of yoeibh has not de- sisted from its practices after repeat- ed warnings, the commanding general decrees that persons under 21 years of age must henceforth "make Such economical use of their wages as ac- cords with the gravity of the time, must adequately support their de- pendents and must deposit in the sav- ings bank their surplus earnings," or they will not be allowed further be collect their wages. Instead, their money wilt be handed over to a duly appointed trustee, who will withhold such amount as he sees fit for deposit in a savings bank until after the war or until his charge has attained his 21st year.

When Buddha died near Kusinara,. about the year 488 'i3,C,, fragments of his bones were distributed as relics to a large number of the more important religious centres. A quarter of a cen- tury ago knowledge of them entree was meagre, and no authentic discov- ery of them had been made, Since that time, however, several certain relics have been found. Taxiia, long before Alexander the Great made it a military centre, was one of the holiest and most important Buddhist sites. The relics of Buddha that have ben found there were pro- tected in various ways, generally be- ing placed within a covered or cleft bowl upon which tete nature of the treasure is described. The workman- ship on these cases is very flare. There is a vast field of search still untouchd in India, but the skilful and energetic work of the British Archae- logical Society has already cleared up many uncertainties and identified many of the holy places of Buddhism, such as Kusivara, the scene of Bud- dha's death, and Rummin-del, his birthplace, REMEMBER!
