When the advance of our troops was held up by an enemy machine gun, which was inflicting severe casu- alties, Private Pattison, with utter disregard of his own safety, sprang forward, and, jumping from shell hole to shell hole, reached cover within 30 yards of the enemy gun. From this point, in face of heavy fire, he hurled bombs, killing and wounding some of the crew, then rushed forward, overcoming and bay- onetting the surviving five gunners. His valor and Initiative undoubt- edly saved the situation and made. possible the farther advance to the objective,--Official Record. By CAROLYN CORNELL. The Canadians gained the summit of Vimy Ridge on scheduled time in the brilliant attack of April. 9th, 1917. By 3.30 o'clock every objec- tive except one had been attained, AA A A fo PTE. J. G. PATTISON, V.C, A A AAAS and for the first time since the fall of 1914 when the ridge was seized by the Germans, allied troops looked down on the green plains of Douai. This view filled the men from the land of long visions with a joy that they had not felt for many months. They talked about it in their trenches and officers brought back stories of the new country beyond the hill top to the headquarters staff, The day had been one of cloud and sunshine, wind and sleet, but the night settled clear, and the stretcher bearers and patrols went about their work under the light of a full moon, y.« HiIl 145 was the one point which had withstood the pounding of the artillery and the dash of the infantry on the afternoon of April 9th. it was to be taken the gext day The place was the northern end of the ridge and had been fortified with im- niense care and labor. It was sur- rounded by an intricate system of craters and trenches laced together with webs of wire. Near the foot of the hill redoubts were estwilisheu in the village of Givenchy, and machine guns were placed in the Bois de la Folie to the east. Here the fourth division ,on-the left of the attacking line, had been held up by the fierce-f ness of the opposition. The 50th Battalion did not take an active part in the first day's at- tack. It had been held in support behind the other attacking battalions of the 10th Brigade. Its scheduled part in the attack had been to ad- vance the second day beyond = Hill 145 and 'take the Pimple, and abrupt alevation at the extreme left of the ridge, but the failure to gain posses- '}#lon of Hill 145 on Monday, the 9th, had. altered the programme, and the 50th Battalion went inet action Tues- day afternoon with orders to capture the eastern slope of that hill' and consolidate tie position. The ground over which the troops had to pass was exceedingly diffi- cult, Heavy rain had made the slopes of the hill slippery and uncer- tain. The men had to climb this stope, laden with full kit, in the face of a tervific fire from the ma- chine guns studded along, the hill side.

After Effects Of Influenza Often as Serious as the Disease Itself---How to Get New Health. There are few homes in Canada that were not touched by the sorrow that trailed in the wake of the Span ish Influénza epidemic. Estimates of the loss of life caused by this epi- demic show that it was almost as great as the losses caused by the war, and these take no account of the baneful after-effects which aré some- times as fatal as the disease itself. Victims of the disease are general- ly left with impoverished blood. and a weakened system. In this condi- tion they are exposed to many dang- ers unless precantions are taken to enrich the blood and strengthen the nerves, The debility that invariably follows influenza is not a disease ot any organ, It is a general condition of unfitness. It must be met by a remedy whose good results will be quickly felt throughout the entire system, In this condition Dr. Wil Hams' Pink Pills will be found in- valuable. The mission of this medi cine is to emrich the blood, and this new, rich. blood carries health ang strength to every part of the body.' The case of Mrs. George Louder, Hamilton, Ont., proves the value of Dr. Williams" Pink Pills in cages of this kind. Mrs. Louder says: "I had a very severe attack of Spanish influenza which left me pale and very weak. My appetite com- pletely failed me and the least noise would startle me and make me ery. I was under a doctor's care, and final- ly he advised me to take Dr. Wilk Hams' Pink Pills, and I had not been taking them long before I could tell they were helping me. I used alto- gether nine or ten boxes and am now feeling as' well as ever I did in my life. T believe if it had not been for these pills I would have been a ahronic invalid." Sueh proof as this must be inter- esting to everyone who suffered from an attack of influenza, and who still feel in any way weakened as the re- sult of the trouble, : It points the way to pew health and strength, and if you are one of the sufferers you should avail yourself of this medicine at once. You ean: get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills through any dealer in medicine, or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Willams' Medicine Co., Brock- ville, Ont.

There are always people in a block who are annoyed by their neighbors' canines, and trust to them to see that the dog levy is made!' "Well, jo change the subject," chimed in the printer, "can you tell me if servants in men's clothing who hang out the wishing and do chores at officers' homes are classed as males oe Jotmles on the assessor's rolls? It emales, then they are exempt from statute labor fees." "Oh, that wouldn't matter," said the Man with the Stick; 'they are soldiers and, therefore, exempt from etatute labor fees." "They may be called soldiers," put in the retired contractor, "but I al- ways pletured a soldier as a fighting man and not one who fills the role of a slavey and pulls the corks." "But you must remember those are lucrative jobs," said the presl- dent as he relit his pipe. "Those fellows earn more than the fighting men." "Say boys," exclaimed the doctor, "It takes a wedding to get the women- folk out early in the orning. A nuptial event is as glorlpus in the eyes of the ladies as .ohe of Davy Laidlaw's silk stocking sales. They're all on the job and tumbling over eac other to get a good view." "Ha! Ha! Ha!" laughed the Man with the Stick, who expressed the opinion that the conversation of the women-folk who the spectators at any big wedding would make as fine read- ing as the Whig's neglected wife story on the woman's page. The customs official introduced a discussion on strikes, and remarked that the present labor troubles were nothing to what might be. Suppose everybody went on strike. The doc tors and murses would refusé to at- tend 'the sick; the hospitals would have to close; the undertakers woulda not bury the dead; farmers would not sell their produce; ministers would not. preach the gospel; the theatres would not be open to amuse the peo- renewed | would 'close down; NESS CARDS t extend their connections, or | ple; waterworks and lighting plants wives would re- fuse to get the family meals--that wonld be a real strike, amd those above mentioned would have just as much right to strike as any other class, for the right to strike is gen- erally conceded. "Well, I hope I'l not he alive when that comes 'to pass," eaid the Man with the Stick, heaving a sigh. "They do say that men who make their fortunes out of liquor never have any luck," remarked the alder man, who spoke of the jump of*Na~ tional Brewery stock, some of which had been purchased in Kingston. "Well, I'm not s0 sure about that, for I know thet some prominent Kingston families are to-day enjoy- ing the fruits of livings built upon big profits made out of Hquer. The Governments themselves have made money out of liquor and why not the individual?" was the argument pre- semted by the doctor, and that ended the discussion on the sabject. The frolic of the 21st Battalion in breaking into a camp canteen in Eng- land was referred to. "Well, what of 1?" granted the president, asking for a match to get his smoke again. "The canteen was likely in commission on money subscribed in Canada, so let the hoys have their lark. Why a little rumpus like that was nothing more than Queen's stu- street stores when they went.off haif- cock not so long ago, when they would smash, and steal too, and then wind up. by trying to beat up the police. "Hooray for the 21st!" shouted the former hotel clerk, who still has a voice lke a foghorn. "Well it would be better if we did a little less cheering and gave the boys a 'helping hand," said the presi- dent, as he arose and intimated that he was going home to bed. MASS BEQUESTS LEGAL.
