The name of this latest hero of the . war is Lieutenant-General. L„ . G. Korniloff, victor of Galicia, whose astonishing feat first proved-that the new advance is no mere flash in the pan. General Korniloff is. regarded as' of the most daring,, chivalrous and scholarly officers officers irvthe Russian Army. From log cabin to general is the literal' te^A of the chronicle of his career. Born forty-six years ago, son of a need- stricken Karalinsk Cossack in Western Western : Siberia, who later reared a large family on a pittance gained as the village village clerk, young Korniloff/ early began began rough forest work. At the age of nine he. received his first instruction. instruction. When barely thirteen he, by his own exertions and all-night-studies, qualified to enter the Siberian Cadet Corps, composed largely of sons of local magnates. Again, by his own efforts, this indomitable Siberian pion- iemitabi a trainii eer gained, free training at the Mich' ailovsk artillery school, where his amazing mathematical faculties brought approval from the authorities, even though he was suspected, with reason, of being a secret revolutionary. revolutionary. * * * * His rise was - very rapid, for we next find General Korniloff an -officer ijitttie Guards and, being -ffeni^ésB, Tgi* obliged to serve in the Turkestan, but 'he continued to advance , in: ; |>psi- Jibn-^nd influence, for in the^ap^nesg. War he received the rank of colonel and was entrusted with -a desperate naissi<mr t v=that-ofcxQverizijrr.th.e_r.etr§at from Moukden of one of .-General Ku- ropa'tkin's shattered armies. It was. executed with such, resolution, anâ-skül that he was given the St. George Gross. Later he travelled all through Turkestan, the Caucasus and Europe, studying; observing and writing pooka on Turkestan and the countries of Central Asia. His gift for languages •.is.amazing.. He speaks not only all European tongues, but also Persian, Chinese and several .dialects of Central* Asia. At the outîn?eak' of--ihe gregt, war he ; was. m command pf,the, 48th Division, once called Suvoroff's, now Korniloff's. In Galicia, in 1915, he was wounded and taken prisoner t$y the Austrians. ♦ * XI " ; * Even this did not discourage this valiant warrior. Soon we find him valiahtf- warrior. Soon we fiijfl' the^en- emy press relating that their generals were, so favorably impressed; with General Korniloff's accomplishments and noble bearing that the return of his sword showed greater honor -to Russia than to them. His restless spirit did not long , stand captivity. After a daring flight, from an . Austrian Austrian prison camp and astonishing adventures adventures he reached Russia. At the outbreak of the revolution he was invited invited to command the troops of Petro- grad, implying, full confidence in revolutionary revolutionary Russia. When the disorders disorders arose General Korniloff, fearing fearing the necessity of. repression, resigned, resigned, saying he would sooner shoot the foe than his own countrymen: He took command of the Eighth Army, whose brilliant exploit is due primarily primarily to him. *xr V ' -A T Its wheelbase ii l)2 inches--it seats fii?e Big pebble in perfect comfort.

Each, mark of sticky hands on doojrs, each tread of muddy feet on floors, all fade before the slightest touch of Gold Dust, ind the work is such that, when the woodwork has been done, I find said work was only fun." This line of reasoning must show that those who've .tried it OUGHT to know. If you, in one day's duties, find that there's a Grouch in ev'ry Grind, invite the^Gold Dust Twins - to share such tasks as tire and fret and wear. From kitchen floor to bedroom suite, these tireless little,chaps make neat, and best of all, the sum expense is measured up in meager cents. - They put both dust and dirt to rout and run the last old microbe out. By Chas. M. Bice, Denver. - Mr. Carl W._ Ackerman, a distinguished distinguished representative of the United Press, and a very trustworthy correspondent, correspondent, filling the important station of chief of staff, was stationed at Berlin Berlin from the beginning of the war and until diplomatic relations were. severed severed with Germany. He had unusual opportunities of observing how things shaped themselves in the Him capital and throughout Germany. In the introduction to his book "Germany the Next Republic," he says: "At the beginning of the war I was sympathetic with Germany, but my sympathy changed to disgust as I watched developments in Berlin change the German people from world citizens to narrow-minded, deceitful tools of a ruthless government. I saw Germany outlaw herself. I saw the effects of President Wilson's notes. I saw the anti-American propaganda begin. I saw the Germany of 1915 disappear, and the birth of a lawless Germany take its place." This is Mr. Ackerman's opinion of the Germany of to-day. The seeds of democratic thought which Wilson sowed in Germany are nevertheless taking root in her soil. If the imperial government had not frightened the people into a belief that too much thinking would be dangerous dangerous for the fatherland, the U.S. would not to-day be at war with the Kaiser's government. Only one thing now will make the people realize that they must think for themselves if they wish to v exist as a nation and as a race. 1 That is a military defeat, a defeat on the battlefields of the kaiser, von Hindenburg and the Rhine valley ammunition ammunition interests. Only this will shake the public confidence in the nation's nation's leaders. Only a destroyed German German army leadership will make the people rise up ' and overthrow the group of men who do Germany's political political thinking to-day. Mr. Ackerman's views confirm our estimate of the German German spirit and our conviction that there cap be no safety or security for the world, and no true'freedom for the German people until the criminal and futile folly of Prussian militarism has been crushed by a decisive victory for the allies and democracy. Thank Heaven, the prophetic role is becoming becoming a thankless, if not a perilous one, in Germany. The imperial government government insists on optimistic interpretation interpretation of all augurs and omens, but is notably inefficient in providing verification verification for prediction. It ; was prophesied prophesied that the U-boat war would' bring Great Britain to her knees by July 1, and that the retreat from the Somme would pave the wav for a brilliant brilliant and decisive coup By von Hindenburg.

These are a few' of the prophetic Ventures of the inspired, oracles **at Berlin, and every one of them has failed. failed. How long will it take the German German people t<t discover that they are being fed on lies ? Only the most rigorous rigorous censorship of all unfavorable news 'can be responsible for the state of ignorance of the German people as to the real situation of their empire. But there are signs that the truth is beginning to percolate through to the lower strata, and that the people are awakening, when they demand the overthrow of Hollweg and others of the war council, if not of the kaiser himself, which rumor persists in affirming. affirming. 843 TONGUES IN AFRICA Every Eighth Person in World Lives in Dark Continent. .'**< Nearly one-fourth of the earth's land surface is comprised within the continent of Africa, and it is as far around the coast of Africa as it is around the • world.

I see, far spread, the war-cloud's pall, I feel the war's alarms. From hamlet small and busy town Forth pour the nation's brave, The men of apron)* sack and gown-- For who would be a slave? For honor and for liberty Anil justice we will fight; For home and Christianity-- The triumph of the right; So, far away oh foreign soil Beside the gallant French, Our sons and brothers nobljt toil And fight from hill and trpneh. Our heroes heard thqjiomeland's call And answered on the run-; And now they fight, or win or fall, Against the criiel Hun; Then, honor, those who fight our fight And laud them to the skies;--- For they must suffer, day and night, To win for us the prize. T , The prize is glorious FREEDOM; won , At what an awful cost-- The mother mourns an only son, The wife a husband lost. Then, give a cheer for those who war Beyond the spreading sea, And spare a tear for those no more-- O, take them, Lord, to Thee. By Wilfrid W. Werry, Montreal, Que.
