WARFARE'S ACTIVITIES
RAILROAD MIM WORKING ON
THE BELGIAN FRONT.
A Correspondent Tells of How co.
Soldiers Who Put Down, 1Juee of
Track Contribute to the chances
of Victory—A Vlslt to the Mor-
aines Area.
THE Canadians played a
worthy part In the groat
events occurring on the
Belgian frost, where in the
early stages of the war the men
from the Dominion made history
that will never be forgotten. The
ground that is now in process of re-
demption represents for them the un-
attainable. They contested every
foot of the St. Elol area at the
northern end of the battlefield with
the utmost tenacity and valor, but
by the superior German artillery on
Meastnes-Wytecbwle Ridge all their
efforts were made fruitless, and
thousands of Canadians died in op-
posing a further German advance.
Their sacrifice was not made in
vain. The ridge and a daily increas-
ing part of the plain of Flanders be-
yond it are again in the possession
of the Belgian people. while the
enemy. brutal and sullen, as always
in defeat, shells with long-range
guns the village* In the area from
which he .iaa been driven, In the
hope of preventing the reoceupatloc
of what. in most cases, are mounds
of shapeleu ruin. like those of the
Somme and Arras regions.
In driving ort the Invader, the
Canadians have done notable work,
not on the fighting front, but in tee
engtneering, road -building, and rail-
way construction department. Some
of the mines •'bleb bare so utterly
changed the outline of the ridge
were completed before the Canadians
left for the Somme last fall. For
months thousands of Canadians.
manned and officered by former;rail-
way contractors and engaueers, have
been adding to the mileage of the
light railways in the Ypres salient.
Recently, during a brief visit to the
Belgian front. a correspondent
watched a railway construction bat-
talion, whith was recruited In North -
eta Ontario. pushing forward a llgbt
railway to a town on the new Brit-
ish front. The work of grading and
hack -laying was proceeding under
fire from the enemy's heavy artillery.
Casualties, were inevitable, but the
men worked with a will, knowing
that by their labors the feeding of
the guns is made possible.
There are now over one hundred
rniles of light railway in the second
army area, some of it double -tracked.
The Colonel to charge of the work of
extending the line to the new treat
was formerly a contractor for the
construrtion of pare of the National
Transcontinental, and is accustom-
ed to handling men in thousands, es
be has to do on the rush job now in
hand. With little military trainht,g,
his men work like veterans. Until
lately, building railways in a salient
was most perilous. Now the track,
when put down, has a fair chance of
staying where it is put.
The Canadian surgeons and nurses
In the Canadian casualties clearing
station In the salient were as effec-
tive In caring for the wounded from
lbs battlefield of Meselnes as the rail-
way builders were to providing facil-
ities for feeding the guns. Over
one-fourth of all the wounded were
cleared from the Canadian stations.
That meant great eseetion for a long
stretchtif. broths on the part of the
_)ttatf, bur this wits borne gladly. By
far 'the greater number of the
wounded had been hit by shell
splinters. Tber' were few bullet
wounds from machine guns or rifles,
and scarcely any inflicted by bay-
onets, save In the case of Germans
treated. This proves that the last-
minute plana for the defence of the
ridge failed to work.
On another visit to the salient,
during a period of preparatory bom-
bardment, it was learned that the
enemy trench system on the western
slope had been practically abandon-
ed and that the Germans were im-
provising a new system of defence
on the crest. in this wire entangle-
ment, stretching from tree to tree
Across a road which ran along the
top of the ridge, were machine guns
and rifle pita behind the wire, which
bad chief plane. 1f ever they corn -
Dieted their defence it was blown to
fragments by the tremendous mine
explosions which preceded our as-
sault.
The hospital records indicate that
artillery was the only real obstacle
to the conquest of the ridge. In the
Belgian operations the Canadian
clearing stations are so situated as to
be of great value. They are finely
appointed, with excellent facilities
for performing necessary operations
before the transfer of the wounded
to the base hospitals. O0e of,tbem
is fortunate in tbe possession of
ample grounds, gay with bloseorna
and foliage. Seeing it, a visitor can
appreciate the spirit in whleh the
manager of a British house fn a
neighboring village, which is also
fortunately in poaseaalon of • green
spot, has hung out a big sign to

den and forget about the blinking
All those weary, wounded soldiers
who are awaiting the hospital trains
will have their thoughts brightened
by looking out on the flowers, garden
plots and lawns of this Canadian
clearing station.
Of the battle -scarred area much
has already been written. Amid a
countryside dotted with hop gardens
and rapidly -growing cereals, the
ridge rises gaunt and hare, Its brown
shell -pitted flanks and serrated crest
suggesting some gigantic beast of
prey dominating the low country
round about, The verdure In future

ness, but large portions will never

will remain as memorials more Im-

WHY WOMEN
WRITE LETTERS
To Lydia E. Pinkham Medi-
cine Co.
Worms who are well often ask "Are
the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" "Are they truthful?"
' Why do women write such letters?"
In answer we .ay that never have we
published a fictitious letter or name.
Never, knowingly, have we published
an untruthful letter, or one without the
full and written consent of the woman
who wrote it.
The reason that thousands of women
from all parts of the country write sueb
grateful letters to the Lydia E. Pink -
ham Medicine Co. is that Lydia E. Pink.
ham's Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,.
once burdened with pain and suffering.
It has relieved women from some of
the wont forms of female ilk, from dis-
placements, inflammation, ulceration.
irregularities, nervousness, weakness.
stomach troubles and from the blues.
It is impossible for any woman who
is well and who
has never suffered
to realize how these
poor, suffering wo-
men feel when re-
stored to health;
their keen desire to
help other women
who are suffering as
they did.
POWER OF THE PRESS.
Must Help tie Rind the British Em-
pire More Closely Together.
The views expressed by the Min-
isters from the various Uritish Do-
tpinions on the duties and responsi-
bilities of the press, at a luncheon
given In their honor in London, by
the Empire Press Union. during the
War Conference may not have con-
tained any new or striking state-
ments. They were, however, note-
wortby for the importance the
speakers manifestly attached to the_
part which the prem is capable of
playing in bringing about the real-
isation of those Ideast which the
Empire is aiming. Thie was parti-
cularly noticeable in the speech
made by one of the Indian delegates,
Sir James Reston, Lieutenant -Gov-
ernor of the United Provinces of
Agra and Oudil. He earnestly hoped,
he said, that. when peace had been
re-established, measures would be
adopted to enlighten the other parts
of the Empire as to what. India was
really like, and what she was cap-
able of in the future. He wouli like
to see a joint delegation consisting of
Biltish statesmen, rapresentativse
of all the Dominions, and delegates
from the Empire Press ienion, visit-
ing ladle for this purpose.
The same desire to co-operate with
the press, as fyI ly as possible, was
noticeable in the other speeches, as
was also a welcome degree of oder-
standing of just what was needed.
Thus, Sir Robert Borden declared
that, speaking for Canada, he coqld
say that she was ready to do her
utmost, by means of Improved trans-
port and intercommunication, to
draw closer together the bonds of
union between the Mother Country
and the Dominions, and between the
Dominions themselves; whilst Mr.
Massey, speaking for New Zealand,
dwelt upon the need for better com-
munication between the Mother
Country and the Dominions In the.
transportation, mall, and cabie Mr -
vice.
Perhaps the most important points
brought out were those which dealt
with the need for a fuller intercom-
munion between the DomiMons
themselves, and for a greater' effort
on the part of the Dominions to un-
derstand and apprectate India. India
has deserved well of the Empire. She
has given freely of all she hod In
the present struggle, aid that with-
out even a hint at terms. Indians
have fought aide by aide with men
from Australia, Canada, and South
Africa, and It Is impossible that this
comradeship bas not done something
to lessen the prejudices which these
Dominions entertained for the In-
dian before the war. 1t may not be
possible for such improved views to
take the form of an Immediate
change In policy In regard to such
matters as Immigration; but it prob-
ably will secure, at once, that more
considerate treatment for Indians to
which India, not unnaturally, at-
taches great Importance. As Sir
James Heston fully recognised, In
bringing about this very desirable
change of heart, the press can do
much by being at pains. as he put
1t. "to enlighten the other parts of
the Empire as to wbat India is really
like."

Had the times been less merlons,
the jubilee of Canadian Confedera-
tion would have been marked by the
great celebrations in London, Eng-
land. The Dominion Day dinner
used to be one of the most interest-
ing functions of the early London
seaaon. It was flat held In 1888.
when there was a rotary of Canedlan
legal talent In England In coonee-
tion with the famous appeal of the
Privy Council over the extent of the
radius of Ontario Provence. The
idea occurred to Donald MacMaster,
tbat Canada's coming of age should
be observed with a dinner. Those
present included McLeod. Stewart,
Mayor of Ottawa, In the chair; Lord
Knutsford, Lord Lansdowne, Sir
Charles Tupper, Hon. Oliver Mowat,
Sir Adam Willson, ;don. W. E. Sand-
ford, A. Staveiey 11111, Dalton Mc-

speech, Dalton McCarthy said be

which he rime' was no longer to be
classed merely as s colony, but de-
clared that It was growing into a
great nation. They desired to be ad-
mitted to a fair share of the re-

replied that with 'reference to Imper-

MIGHT HAVE BEEN A RAJAH•
Canadian Refused to Leave Country
to Secure Honor.
A romance as remarkable as was
ever Invented by a novelist w111 be
recalled to many readers by the re-
cent announoement of the death of
Sir Charles Brooke, Rajah of Sara-
wak. Those who know Kipling's
story, "The Man Who Would be
Kin.," have a general outline of
what happened in Sarawak before
the first English rajah was recog-
nised. It Is true that disaster did
not deemed upon the rajah through
a native woman; and that whatever
disasters he encountered be surviv-
ed, but the task of the character In
KIpitng was no mon dimcult than
the task of 15e first rajah, Brooke,
and his secoeaaor, who has just
passed away. He found one of the
h velleat countries In, the world un- (
known to white men, and Inhabtted
by one of the most nesse races
aeon the floe of the earth. Wttb a •
mere handful of whites he captured
the country and made himself ib
rater. Incidentally be anppremted
lawlessness, and by treaties increas-
ed the extent of his domain from
7,000 square neDes to 65.000 square
mils. When be died he was able
to nominate hie successor, the late
Sir Charles Brooke, who in turn h 1
as
handed over the realm to his son.
There was a further romance of
1111 Brooke family which centres 1n
Oanada. The nese Rajah was a
bachelor. He ha a brother and
!?seer. Tile sister married a Mr.
Johnston, an lenglbhlnan. The bro-
ther was an *Meer in the English
army. He warned a Portuguese lady
and had two sons. At his death the
faintly came to Canada and setUed
in the Eastern Townships, Quebec.
The eldest sort, Wm. Brooke, studied
law and pract)sed in-tichmond, Cele-
bee.
es
bee. He was the favorite nephew of
the first Rajah, and they were in
dose correspondence with each
ether during Me. When the first
Rajah was established In power at
Sarawak, he asked his nephew, Wm.
Brooke, to go out and join him 1n
Borneo, odertng to make him his
heir and .uccessur. William
Brooke's wife would not oonaent to
his leaving Canada, so he declined.
The Rajah tier made tbe same offer
to hie sister's son. Charles Johnston,
on coodition that be change his name
to Brooke, which be did, joining his
uncle in Borneo. He became the
seemed Rajah, and is the man who
died lately.
Wm. Brooke, of Richmond, Que.,
lett two was. Charing and George,
both lawyers. Cbarles, the eldest,
was County Grown -Attorney at Hall,
Que., for a number of years, dying
there about four years ago, ani leav-
ing a family. His son enlisted In
the first Canadian Expeditionary
Force and was 5111ed b France last
year. If his grandfather had ac-
cepted the ?rat Rajah's offer, this lad
might now have been Rajah of Bur
neo. instead of a dead hero ht
France.
