To-clay I am strong and hearty, without an ache or pain, and for my present physical condition I am indebted to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. and can most heartily recom- mend thcm to the afflicted.”~ One of the best known ministers in the Hamilton Conference is the Rev. Chas. E. Stafford, of Elora, Ont, who freely admits that he owes his present good health to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. Mr. Stafford writes as follows: “Some years ago I was severely af- flicted for a period of nearly four months. The leading physician in the town in which I was then stationed- diagnosed my case as one of complete nervous prostration, brought on by over-work and which superinduced intercostal neuralgia and muscular rheumatism, from which I suffered the most excruciating pain night and day for weeks. So weak and helpless did I become that my attendants had to handle me like an infant, raising me up and laying me down with the greatest care, so intense were my suf- ‘ ferings. Acting on the advice of myi doctor, and taking his medicine, I did] not seem to improve. One afternoon” while suffering great pain, the editor; of the paper published in the town,3 and who was a member of the church of which I was then pastor, urged me to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. I was sceptical as to the medicinal qualities of all proprietary medicines, but on the strong recommendation of the editor, who had great faith in the medicine, I decided to try them. To my great surprise and supreme de- light, I soon found that the Pills were giving me relief, and after I had :zzkcn seven boxes I was fully re- stored to health.

They are con- Pink 1 stantly watching the seas round' our coasts, and it is no exaggeration to .om- lsay that on their vigilance the safety of our shores in a large measure de- pends.

I hold a master’s cer- tificate, and I have a crew that will follow me anywhere. The lot is at your disposal, including the man you are talking to, if you want me.” Sentinels of the Sea. Half an hour later, the yacht be- longing to this weather-beaten, rough- ly-clad volunteer was entered on the register of boats on patrol service, and its owner, a millionaire yachts- man, left the Admiralty a captain (unpaid) of a patrol boat in‘Iâ€"Iis Ma- jesty’s Navy. Casual callers do not readily gain interviews with busy officials at Gov- ernment offices in war time, but there was something about this particular callerâ€"something that suggested his inflexible resolution to see the official he had asked for and discuss “real business”â€"that gained him admission with but little delay to the room of the ofi’icial he wanted to see. A few weeks after the outbreak of the war a middle-aged, weather-beat- en looking man, with a pair of very clear blue eyes, and clad in rather routh attire, presented himself at the Admiralty and asked to see the offi- cial who was in control of the patrol office, says London Answers.

I am not at all difficult to suit. The “commander” kept his word, and discharged his friend the next day. But the latter bore him no ill- will; he recognized the fact that he had committed a grave violation of discipline that on a battleship would have entailed severer punishment. The young fellow is now serving his coun- try, not at' sea, but as a sergeant in a regiment in which he enlisted directly after_his dismissal from the patrol service. Mr. Hardfaxâ€"There’s too much jowder on your face. to-morrow at , where we .vare bound for, and that I shall not have yogon board this boat again. “Mind,” said the owner to him, “we are not going on a pleasure trip. We shall be on war service, and there will be as strict a discipline on the boat as if she were a warship. I, shall be glad to take you on, but you,will have to obey orders.” And the young fellow promised to do so. The first night at sea the order was given that there must be no lightsâ€"an order that was forgotten by the young fellow in ques_ tion. When he went to turn in at one o’clock for his four hours’ sleep, he switched on the electric light in his cabin whilst he undressed. Dismissed! Two minutes later he was summon- ed to the presence of his friend, the commander of the boat. The young fellow stood between two of the crew at a table at which the commander was seated in his cabin. “You have disobeyed orders}? said the commander, “and I have sent for you to tell you that I shall land you A story,was told to the writer re- cently of a patrol boat which before the war was a private yacht. When it was registered-asa patrol boat its owner became its commander, and among the crew were four of his most intimate friends. One of them was a youhg fellow who had often sailed with him on pleasure trips, and who was specially keen about serving as one of the crew when the boat went into the patrol service. The discipline on board the patrol boats is as strict as it is on a battle- ship, though its officers and crew may possibly consist of a dozen friends or so who are working it themselves. I Speed is the essential qualification lof a boat employed on this service, and a high courage, great daring, and fine seamanship the qualifications of its commander. There may be, say, one hundred miles of ocean to tra- verse between the point from which the despatch boat starts and the ship it is to deliver its despatches to. Driving Ahead in Darkness. The time it may be given to cover that hundred milesâ€"the distance may be longer or shorter, of courseâ€"may be but four hours. From the start it is a case of driving ahead at full speed, possibly in pitch darkness, and with all lights out. Several of the fastest patrol boats have been employed as despatch boats, to carry despatches to and from our warships, and to different naval bases. This is work after the very heart of the men in the patrol service. There are patrol men who have been chased by enemy ships, who have en- countered imminent risk of destruc- tion from mines, who have defied at- tack from submarines and aircraft. Escaping from such dangers, these sentinels of the seas are daily per- forming work as useful and as impor- tant and as essential to our safety as is the work of the outposts at the Front to the safety of the British Army in France. themselves, and their crews at the dis- posal of the Admiralty. Other boats are captained by retired admirals, captains too old for service in the" Fleet, or by retired master mariners or mas_ters in the Merchant Service. All are splendid seamen, as ready to face danger and death in defence of king and country as any officer or man in' the Grand Fleet. Chased by Enemy Ships. There are now hundreds of boats in the patrol service, and ten months of constant work at sea have produced a fleet the efficiency and usefulness of which will probably never be properly known or understood except by those‘ who are in control of the naval de- fence of our island.
