tion was put one and "through the at-

less had the effect of leading the
enemy to believe that we were con-
templating a further attack, and con-
sequently he began to withdraw.
The period between now and Oc-

pletion of plans for the crossing of the
Canal de L'Eseaut and the capture of
Cambrai. On October 7th the First
Canadian Division went to the XXITud

On. October 22nd the Third Cana- I

First Canadian Division and the ad-
-Vance was continued, until next' day
we had reached a line along the
Canal de l' Hscaut to the Faubourg
de -Paris, thence along the canal to
Fresnes, thence to Oromez. From
here until the end of the month' the
time was spent endeavoring to make

tivee and other material and rolling
stock. ,
On November 1st the Fourth Can-
adian Division ,supported on its right
by the 22nd Collie, attacked With the
object of securing the , high grained
south of Valenciennes, and for thie
purpeee the area of the Canadian
Corps was temporarily extended south
of the canal through alaign and
Famars. The attack by the Tenth Can-
adian Brigade was entirely successful
and resulted by 7 a.m. in the capture
of Houy and Aulnoy, whose possession
hitherto by the enemy had halted our
advance on Valenciennes. In epite of
stiff fighting the attack continued
with success until at twenty
miautes past sever. on the following
morning the city of Valenciennee -was
captured by the Twelfth' Brigade of
the Fourth Canadian Division.
An interesting feature of these oper-
ations was the release after four
years of servitude of nearly a hundred
thoueand civilians, Their joy knew no
bounds, and they overwhelmed our
brave. men with kindnesses. The
Four .Canadian Division eels here re-

captured Ville Pommoroueul, while
along the rot of the front Frameries

That night we held the line Nour-
chain, Ciply, Gueenies; west of Mone -
Ville, Pommeroeul. Next day a greet
battle ensued for poeaession •of Mons.
Out infantry and cavalry fought with,
conspicuous determination, while the
enemy with his machine-gune put up
•a-edOperate resistance. First Mesvin
was cleared, then Ghlin, and finally
the 42nd Canadian Infantry 13attalio3:i,
of the Seventh Brigade, Third Divi-

Some of the Germaa papers are
quite tearful over the'probability that
German kultur will haere to take a
bac kseat 1 the world for a while, and
because people in Germany are be-
ginning to think that Frederick the
Great, their national hero, may have
led them' a little astray.
Road "The Story of Hohenzollerns,"
by C. Sheridan Jones, and you'll be
inclined to think -that perhaps ho did
ells "Memoirs" aro like a key to
German psychology of to -day. Very'
many -Germans--especially at the top
and near the top -have regarded his
utterly unprincipled acctrines al a
sort of Gospel. If Frederick the Great
said a thing it must be all right.
• The Kaiser, ono may be sure, learnt
this particular Frederick -the -Great
maxim by heart- long ago: "Realm
ber, once for all, that in the matter
of AtIngcloms, he catches them that
can, and there is no wrong except in
being forced to give them up."
All Germany is familiar with these
and many others:
"Would- you like to be thougbt vir-
tuous? •Then leara artftilly to appear
what you are not."
• "Have you a neind to pass •for a
hero? Then do not be afraid oli
crimes."
"By cheating others we gain the ad-
vantage, for they would cheat us if
they could. So never be ashamed of
making alliances and abandoning
them as soon as it is to your interest
to do so."
Once you start digging down, to the
roots 6f the Hohenzollern tree you
find in every direction eccentricity
that borders on insanity, if it doesn't
go over the line. Tbere was the first
of them: Frederick William, father of
Frederick the Great, aick-named Fat
William. If you were looking for
seniebody like him to -clay you would
bin your search by looking in the
lunatic asylums.
M e.anwhil o wa3 he pred emir Rut
characteristic. Ile allowed his fam-
ily to food, and gave them only tile
roughest of that. If his sons and
daughters didn't like. sour breed and
stale cabbage for dinner there was
nothin gelse for them. When the
cook dared to make 'a trifling addi-
tion to the meal Frederick raved- at
him, hit him, and warned him thaz he
would be shot if he offened again.
Then he complained that the ellen-
tity of food served up was less than
he fiad given out. Tile cook explain-
ed that there wa3 acessarilY somo
waste In cooking, but that excuse was
ileot accepted. Fat William issued an
order that no ceok cr kitchen helper '
should under any circumstances taste
any dish he was preparing, .
It was a joSrful elay for the family
when a generous friend sent a barrel
of oysters to the king. • But Freder-
ick sold the oysters and pocketed the
money.
elacatilay's judgment of Fat Wil-
liam is not flattering. "He was hard
• and bad, and the habit of exercising
arbitrary power had hira fright-
fully savage, His rags constantiy
vented itself right ani left in eurAo.
and blows."
Sometimes it happened that gout
chained this dear old gentleman to his
chair, and at first the family and
household looked forward to this as
to a sort of holiday, But Fat
liana was not going to lot tb.e fact
that ho eoulda't leave his chair pre-
vent him from keeping, up discipline
as usual.
He kept relays of servants near,
with orders to chase and bring to him
for correction anyone -prince or prin-
cess or peasant -whom he desired to
correct (with his crutch) fin' whatever
he chose to consider a creme.
"His palace was a hell," says Macau-
lay, "and he the most execrable of
fiends."
The one hiing whom Fat William
most dearly loved to humiliate was his
eldest sou, afterwards Frederick the
Great. TIo hated him, hated him most
bitterly, and made him feel the weight
of hs terrible hatred in small things
as well as e,-,reat.
Frederick loved music, and dared to
amuse himself by playing the flute.
Fat William smashed the flute and
dared him to get another.
Frederick loved reading, so Pat Wile
Ham burnt his books or threw them
out of the window.
When there was -something to
thrash the boy for he thrashed him.
When there was nothing to thrash him
for he thrashed him just the same,
When event thrashing had for the mo-
ment lost its charmhe tried to hang
him with a belt rope.
Then there was young Frederick's
love affair. The girl was quite a
poor girl, daughter of a schoolmaster
at Potsdam; fond of music, delighting
in making raueic with a clarion. So
young Frederick summoned -up cour-
age to get another flute, and in the
evehings, when he could get off, they
plaeed to each other, the girl's father
beaLing time.
Fat William found it out, and th.e
next evening he was there. •Ile
raved and stormed. He had the girl
beaten right through the streets of
Potsdam and then put in prison for
three years.
He shut his son up in a fortress -
wanted to kill him -but the lelinistors
repretented to him that that really
wouldn't do. Anybody else any or-
dinary Prussian, could, be despatched,
of course, without any difficulty if the
King of Prussia wished it. But the
king's own son! Well, perhaps it
would be better, -the king agreed, not
to go quite so 'far as that.
And this Fat William is -or was
until lately -spoken of with bated
breath in Germahy as the inspired Ho-
henzollern who first scientifically im-
planted and tended and cultivated, in
Germany "the seeendid . Prussian
spirit."
He would haye gicried in the wa,y
that spirit has shown itself during
these four years of war. The Huns
have eurely left -nothing -at all undone
that could have pleased him.
In out-and-out atrocities they have
golie far beyond the atrocities of the
Vandals and the Huns, but they have
found plenty of time, during their
occupation of towns and districts of
France and Belgium, to ateend to "lit-
tle" atrocities, too.
Captain Muller, Who *commanded at
Zeebrugge, habitually carried a whip
when he walked in the town and
struck at littleechildren with it.
They chipped bits off the finest
monument in Crugcs' to take away as
souvenirs; if a door was not opened

out the bit of m9ther-of-pearl.
The poor lace workers had to watch
the little machines they had bought
with such self-denial, smashed to bits
before their eyes, and German officers
would go all round the district where
they happened to be quartered buying
up eggs and butter at prices by them-
selves -and selling them in the towns
at prices also fixed by themselves,
but very widely different.
All these things Fat William would
have approved most cordially. But
he wculcr have gone into one of his
very mad rages when the tido turned
and the process of disgorging his
kingdomand having to eat humble -
pie began.

Too many children nowadays undergo
the small but essential operatton for the
reinoval of adenoid growths that a slight
account of their after-care and treatment
may be lielful. The operation itself is
almost always slight and allnust always
successful in the removal of the growther
After operation the child should be
kept in bed, for two or three clays. Until
food .is afhed for none snould be given
by the mouth, but when the child is
tt ell enough to ask for food a little
beef -tea or jelly may os given. Milk Is
Inadvisable uuring tile first twenty-four
hours, as there is a likelihood that blood
has been swallow•ed clueing the operation,
and, if this is so, the addition of rnilk
will probably make the child sick. And
not only is this bad for the throat, but
may seriously frighten a nerVouschlid
Usually, 'however, any blood swallowed
ia vomited ,as soon OA the childis re-.
moved from the operating table. Where
this has not been so, and the child still
teeis sick, he should be given a pint of
hot water to drink. which will have the
effect of making him sick and emptying

throat and nasal space, when pain and
