It Is a peculiar fact that warfare in the dir Is replete with humorous incidents, sometimes very funny 'to all concerned, but 'often funny 'those only who are in safety, Several of the French "aces" also Major Bal have machines actually fly into each other, owlng to the pilots losing their heads during the course of what are called "dog fights" in France. Looking at and is certainly nothing funny. about the matter, but to the man who has been 'risking his own life to put them out of business and then to see them- selves the cause of their own down- fall has certainly its ludicrous view- point, A somewhat similiar incident hap- Lbened to an English airman during my training at the famous Brook- lands aerodrome near London, The officer who had only a few hours solo flying to his name, made a very poor attempt to land and as a re- sult left his undercarriage on his ground and quite unconscious of its absence flew off to have another try. When he looked over the side of the fuselage and saw that he was minus any wheels he got in a state of abject funk and flew around for a consider- able time before he got the nerve to make a "pancake" landing, which was his only salvation. However, he did not damage himself, which was more than could be said about the machine. Another funny circumstance is that whilst flying for several hours the observer, having nothing to do in the absence of any attention from the enemy, generally gets very sleepy, due in part to the rarified atmos- phere. One friend of mine in France used to show his contempt for Fritz by taking a certain magazine, not generally read in religious circles, up with him. Whilst very imipressive to all his colleagues, it can hardly be recommended to others who want to come back to Canada, because the Hun is'a very wily customer and likes to get "on your tail" unobserv- The same gentleman and his little book caused much mirth to a hand- ful of Anzacs whean his pilot's engine "kinked" and he had to land in a small field with a ditch by the road- gide, in which the plan stuck its head. The tail was high in the air and our friend appeared to be as if im a pulpit; so he picked up his book and with ministerial mien sald: "We will all join in hymn sixty-seven." nm 'Making of Aviators to|V seen German | it from the German standpoint, there | [scubborn, commit the end of and the w ISD ame crimes again, The that Tam at freedom s dead and buried, By E.

He made his way to- wards it, and ound that the pilot had gone to telephone his squadron as to his whereabouts. An old French | gendarme was in charge and he took no notice of our friend when he| took off the very latest in telescopic sights and said it must be in his| safe keeping. , He made off with all speed and the next day saw his own| rather antiquated plane with the beautiful telescopic sight mounted alongside his fixed gun. All went well until his squadron | commander noticed the addition, and | the mervy pilot had a warm five minutes explaining its presence. His{ time would have been considerably | otter, If it had not been for the good use he had made of the new sights, and the fact that the reputa- tion of the particular squadron had been much enhanced thereby. Aa A well-known citizen, who passed through the justice mill last week after his return from celebrating the 12th of July at Cape Vincent, has handed to the Whig the following description of his experiences: At last after months of lying, scheming and watching; I have be- come one of Butch MeCammon's pets In trying to do all I could for a dying woman; to supply her with stimulation, when my own country would not, I resorted to Uncle Sam's domain and endeavored to bring over 'the required medicine to help that poor soul to live a few days longer. But, no, owing to 4 sleuth tenacity equal tp that of a Nick Carter, I was, after 'months of endeavor, caught with the goods on, although 1 thought and still think I was within the law. : I was taken to the lockup, placed in a cell along with another, and la- ter one blanket was passed -in for the two of us. This, my cell mate cab- baged, also the only seat, a: board along the wall, so I hope he rested comfortable, He being frailer than I, I did not object. I spent the night on the cement floor with my hat for a pillow. But being used to get- ting some rough knocks>in my life time, I did not mind it, and slept well. The police at the station were kindness itself, doing or getting any- hing. they could for us, he only ugly feature of it was, we were not allowed to use the tele- phone to notify any friend of our 'sleeping quarters, or get word home. The next morning we were parade before the Cadi. My cell mate got $10 and costs for being drunk: I got $200 and costs or three months for having liquor in any other place than than my own home. .Lucky guy! You do not know what charges are up against you; nor can you phone to get a lawyer. You can tell the po- lice to phone for you, but that is poor satisfaction. My cell mate paid his fine, but I had to wait for some one to help me out, A You may have friends in prosper- ity, who will fawn on you and give "Barbers Itch" Annoying, isn't it? But you ean soon gel rid of this form of eczema by applyin Dr. Chase's Oint- ment after shaving. _ \'This soothing ointment heals - the irritated skin and keeps il soft and pli- able.

It _ acts as a food for the skin, it smooth and vel- vely. A met hi PA you the right hand of fellowship; but when adversity knocks at your door, where are they? Gone, gone, like a fleeting fog before a morning sun. No wonder it is said "a man's best friend is his dog and next to that his horse." : I' was kept in durance vile, but funny, up to 4 p.m. that day then | was transferred to what is now Top- ping's Castle. There I was greeted {1s as slow as in the present battle, the {supports come into action rapidly as the leaders are checked, and if still they fail 45 break through their los- ses are proportionately heavy, The extent to which this had been the case may be judged from the fact that a certain division was in action by noon yesterday, whereas, accord- ing to schedule, it ought net to have been engaged until to-morrow. Almost all divisions identified are of the highest quality, including sev- eral of the Prussian Guard.' Some never before engaged this year be- long to the special first class re- serves which Hindenburg was jeal- ously keeping for a supreme effort. The tlower uf the German army is once agaly being sacrificed on the historic banks of the Marne. Osteopathy and Returned Soldiers Toronto Daily Star The president'of the American Na- tional Association ' of Osteopathists says that a medical boycott is threat- ened if osteopathists are admitted to the Army Medical Corps. The New York Tribune, while it do®s not favor putting osteopathists on the same footing as other physicians in the army, says: { "For thie medical profession to con- tinue its quasi-boycott on the prac- titioners of osteopathy is equally 111- advised at the present time. BEspe- clally in the war and in the treatment of eonvalescents we are sure that os- teopathy could do a wide and valu- able service. If is precisely the sort of thing that is needed, especially in the later stages of recovery, and with the crying need for physicians it by real friends, men who had stood the hardships of this war and 1 am | proud of them." There you saw dis-| cipline and - order, hats off, empty your pockets, count your money; sign this sheet, come on, Iw placed in a corridor along with a three-year college medico and started to talk of many things, pass- ed a pleasant evening. Supper at 6 p.m. (the first in over 36 hours), of a pint of corn meal porridge eaten with a 'pinch of salt, eight ounces of bread," all washed down with a mug of pea coffee; 6 p.m., locked in cells; 9.30 p.m., visit from keeper, lights out and to bed. A bed consisting of a straw tick, over it a cotton sheet a straw pillow and over you a blanket. Feeling conscious that I was convicted for trying to do the right, I slept the sleep of a just.-man. The next morn- Ing up at 6, breakfast at 7, the same as supper, then wash your mug, tin spoon and tin box which serves as a porridge tin, potato can, soup holder and meat dish, then walk the cor- ridor or read. ie One very ugly feature of it was that you had to give up your hand- kerchief and use the cuff of your coat. Dinner at noon, of one pint of soup, with very fat beef cut up in half inch cubes and a potato the size of a large marble, eight ounces of bread and no ted or coffee to wash it down with. On the whole it was a funny experience to me. . The inmates appeared to enjoy themselves, talking, laughing, read- ing or telling yarns.

Temperance law! temperance law! How miserable the degregda- seems an extremely short-sighted policy to reject this proffered aid. Osteopathy has a definite and not to be 'mis-prized part in modern thera- peutics. "And it is an ill-timed pre- judice which now refuses its meed of recognition." A similar prejudice seems to exist in Canada. The Ontario Osteopathie Association offered to equip a free sanitarium, for the treatment of re- turned soldiers, but the offer was ig- nored. At the same time it is said that at Hart House osteopathic meth- ods. are freely used. Apparently the idea 1s to borrow them without giv- ing the recogrized /practitioners of the system any share of control or credit, We should think that some regard should be paid in this matter to the wishes and preferences of the return- 6d soldier where the results are not matepially affected. This could be dong it the offer. of the Ontario Os- teopathic Association were accepted. ences MASONIC FINANCES SOUND, Grand Treasurer M.W. Bro. E.
