Lapa ~ CAVALRY COMES _ INTO ITS OWN ONCE MORE BROUGHT INTO); PLAY BY OPEN WARFARE. Splendid Sight as They Came Charg- ing Across the Field as in Days of Old. Despite the many efforts of army officials of the Allied nations to have cavalry regiments changed into light and' heavy artillery, because of their incompetence in trench warfare, the recent successes of cavalry commands attached to General Haig's army in checking the German offensive em- phasizes the further need of the mounted organizations in this and future wars. The cavalry had made history long before all Europe had arrayed to suppress the common foe of demo- | cracy. During the present German, offensive the cavalry got its long- de- | sired wish to distinguish and to prove to the world once again that mounted men still constitute a force to be reck- | oned with and that the service is not | a useless adjunct of the army. Valuable in Present Offensive. These mounted organizations have | at no other time since the beginning | of the great conflict been able to play | such an important part in this war; cs they have during the great bat-| tles which have taken place on the! western front recently. They have | been stretched along the battle line, | filling in gaps, strengthening the} line and covering the retirement of the infantry. During the first three days of the Teuton drive the mountec men accomplished valuable work,' fighting mostly on foot. Dismounted cavalrymen held the Ollezy-Ham | line, where the fighting was terrific, | while the infantrymen withdrew. -- party of dragoons was cut off 1! night, during which they were out o the open battling for their lives. Fin- es-at Jussy by main force. On the 28rd of March the cavalry came into its own, for the horses were brought forward and the troopers be- gan a series of spectacular feats. When Noyon was first threatened cavdlry was sent to hold the line of the 'Oise west of the town. The Brit- ish infantry was forced to fall back on the 26th, and the cavalry was pull- ed back also with the intention of occupying the ridge near the village | of Porquerticourt, in the vicinity of Noyon. Canadian Cavalry Assist. The Germans were also aiming to get a foothold on this hill. A race developed between the horsemen and the enemy infantry across the rollihg ground. Both reached the forest at about the same time, but the cavalry Jost no time and rushed through the forest against the Germans. An in- tense battle at close quarters ensued and the cavalry was doing great exe- cution when the order came for them to fall back in order to cover the re- tirement of the infantry, which had succumbed to pressure at other points. The mounted men withdrew from the wood and brought up the rear, pausing often to fight rearguard actions with the hostly pressing en- emy. When word came from the British command that the wood northwest of Moreuil was filled with enemy _ in- fantry, who had brought forward great numbers of machine guns, which were mounted in every s the able vantage point, even in trees, the gallant horsemen were called upon, to clear the wood out. They respond- | ed and came pounding up to the wood | in a picturesque manner. Here part | of them dismounted and went on foot, | | but the Canadian horse tore on into | the forest and hurled themselves on| the enemy. The Germans slowly gave way before the onslaught until the western part of the wood had been eleared. Like Knights of Old. The cavalry was again called upon on April 1 to attack the enemy. They did and no more splendid sight ,has been seen along the battle line than when they came charging across the field as in days of old and drove straight into the banks of machine ns scattered among the trees. The fr: st charge gave the horsemen a foot- hold in the wood. They reformed and surged forward again. This time they | got to the centre of the forest. Once more they drove their horses full- tilt against the German line. The lat- ter held for a little and then sagged and broke and the British stormed their way clear through the wood to the eastern side, the enemy fleeing be- fore them. Behind them the ground was 'strewn with German' dead and wounded. | ized for a counter-attack and here the horse gunners accomplished more gallant work. As the enemy massed in the open, the artillerymen poured large quantities of shell into their ranks, one battery alone firing 2,000 rounds at the target. For an hour the German infantry marched ex- posing themselves to the hail of death. They kept coming forward, but only a few reached the wood and the attack was smashed by the troopers. DISCLOSURE BY HUN PAPER. German Newspaper Reveals Vastness Of Spying System. The extraordinary number of Ger- man "agents" and spies who are still working for the Fatherland in Eng- land, France, Spain, the Scandinavian countries and America forms the sub- ject of an illuminating article in a re- cent issue of the Berlin Tageblatt. Herr Theodor Wolff has apparently The Germans immediately reorgan- . no intention of giving away any in- formation to the enemy in the matter. itself | He is merely concerned with the scan- dal of granting exemption from the new German taxation proposals to this army of shirkers who, "under the ' pretence of working for Germany, are living a life of luxury abroad and es- caping military service.' The Tageblatt's unconscious revela- / tions are as follows "The people who 'mow what is go- ing on are amazed to learn how enor- mous is the number of people who are working in Germany's interest in for- eign countries. It will be extraordin- arily interesting to hear something one day about their duties and their achievements. "When the war broke out we were told in Germany that we had not done enough to make sure of. the moral conquest of the world, that our re- sources in the matter of secret agents ; Were too small and our methods too old fashioned. Instantly there arose a number of persons quick to under- stand the magnitude of the opportun- ity that was presented, and all these offered to help the Fatherland in this dire necessity. "Every one who pretended that he had some relationship with foreigners was sent away with plenty of money.

Anything But a Pleasurable Experi- ence, Says a Correspondent. Joy-riding in a British tank means hanging on for dear life in a deafen- ing roar of machinery while the ma- chine lumbers up an@ down grades, alternately tossing its passengers first one way and then the other. A trial trip is thus described: "We accepted with some trepida- tion, an invitation to make a journey in the machine. About half a dozen of us entered by the narrow door and were cramped up on the little plat- form which runs on each side of the machinery. We held on death with our hands. ments everything went well. there was an upward movement of) the forepart of the tank and in a trice | we found ourselves without a foot- | ;hold and were suspended by our hands from the 'holdfasts.' "The vessel jerked violently as she started on her downward course. In the twinkling of an eye we were ; thrown into the same position as be- fore--only more so--with our legs dangling and our hands gripped in the effort to hold on and prevent be- ing thrown all of a heap. We event- ually emerged none the worse for the trip, but with a vivid impression of what must be the,life of the gallant crews to whom our experience was a trifle as compared with theirs in the midst of shot and shell and with their own guns blazing away. "The roar of the machinery in the confined space was terrific. The man with the strongest lungs, shouting in the ear of a man of the acutest hear- ing, could not make a syllable heard."

NOT A BITI LIFT YOUR CORNS , » OR CALLUSES OFF then just lift them away with fingers. | No humbug! Apply a few drops This new drug is an ether com- pound discovered by a Cincinnati chemist. It is called freezone, and can now be obtained in tiny bot- tles as here shown at very little cost from any drug store, Just ask for freezone. Ap- ply a drop or two di- rectly upon a tender corn or callus and in- stantly the soreriess disappears. Shortly you will find the corn or callus so loose that you can lift it off, root and all, with the fin- gers. Not a twinge of pain, soreness or irritation; not even the slightest smarting, either when afterwards. " This drug doesn't eat up the corn or cal- | lus, but shrivels them so they loosen and come right out. It is no humbug! It works like a charm. For a few cents you can get rid of every hard corn, soft corn or corn between the toes, as well as painful calluses on bottom of your feet. It never dis- appoints and never burns, bites or inflames. If your druggist hasn't any freezone yet, tell him to get a little bottle for you from his whele- sale house. What He Inferred. A lieutenant was instructing his platoon in visual training.
