They are inferior race physically to the @lish or the Germans. Although they live in practically the same climate and under the same condi- s, they have not been able to "attain the size of their neighbors, gavs the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Anoiiher striking fact is the dif- nee in size of Frenchmen them- Ives. The American-Frenchmen, whose ancestors came here prior to French revolution, is much su- or in physique to the French- mal to-day in France. While the Frenchman with a long Ameri- can ancestry is every whit the equal in size to the Englishman and _ the ; German, his European cousin seems to be of.a smaller species. _ The answer is found in the loss of life of the Napoleonic wars. Na- poleon was a small man himself. He was known men as the Little prior to Napoleon's time the French as a rule, were big people. The ex plorers, who marched through the wilderness of America and explor- -ed the wilds of Canada and the Mis- -sissippi Valley, were men of massive build for the most part. the pick of the earth as far as physique is concerned. The trap- pers and early French settlers who succeeded them, 'were i Men of Good Physique. Tihneiy descendants are the present -French-Americans. While Napoleon occupies more pages of history than any other man, he put his name: there at the expense of his own people... War takes the bravest and biggest men. _ Every war is a sacrifice of the best. With all the world against. him, Na- poleon had to go to unusual ex- tremes to win his ends. He raised himself to the imperial throne, but he did it by lopping off the heads of his own people and by taking their flesh. When Napoleon finally .was im- prisoned at Saint Helena, the aver- age Frenchman was two inches smaller than he was at the time of the storming of the Bastile. When Napoleon's guard fell in the sunk- en road at Waterloo he had com- pleted his career in cutting twenty pounds of flesh from his own peo- ple. While the world has marveled for a century at the great genius of Na- poleon it has had to admit that his genius had no good effect on the physique of the French people. Napoleon eared little for his sick and wounded. That probably heightened the list of casualties on his campaigns. The following fig- ures show how dearly Napoleon's wars cost the French people : In the Peninsular campaign the casualty list was 460,000 men. In the Mos- eow campaign his loss was 480,000 men. The Leipzig campaign cost 100,000 men. Those three cam- paigns followed one after cach other and were at the close of Na- poleon's career. The Present War in Europe will hve a similar effect on the size of the future Europeans. The na- tion which will be likely to suffer most is the most efficient fighting nation. The indications now are that nation is Germany. She is fisting on all sides. She has many more men who can fight than any other nation. England has only a few hundred thousand fighting men on the continent. than Germany. Russia probably has a good many more fighting men than Germany, but she has. not so many so fiercely engaged. Should the Germans win, their victory will be won at the price of their own bravest and best men. WN GREAT DISTRESS FROM ECZEMA Suffered Over Two Years. Grew Thin and Lost Appetite.

Dy affectionately by his Corporal; but They were France has Jess Napoleon was considered victori- ous up to the time of the Russian | campaign. He there lost so many men that he never was able to fight as he did before. Had he been de- feated before crossing Germany he might have won in the end, because he would not have left his army im Russia to be eaten by the wolves or buried by the Cossacks. : Napoleon, in speaking of the dis- acter at Saint Helena afterward, admitted it was a big mistake. Re- ports have it that his divorced wife, Josephine, advised him not to go on the campaign. Speaking to Gen- eral Gourgaud of the disaster, he said: en Be "T did not want to make war on Russia, but M. de Kourakine sent a mendcing note,on the subject of the conduct of Davout troops in Ham- burg. Bassano,and Champagny, then my foreign ministers, were in- ferior men. They did not under- stand the real motives that had dic- tated the note and I could not. pos- sibly in my position exchange ex- planations with Kourakine. They persuaded me that the note was meant for a declaration of war and that Russia, which had withdrawn her troonvs from Moldavia, was go- ing to take the initiative and was about to enter Warsaw. Then Kourakine grew menacing and ask- ed for his passports. I really thought that Russia wanted war. I Set Gut for the Army. I sent Lauriston to Alexander. He was not received. I had already sent Narbonne and everything con- firmed me in the opinion that Rus- sia was ready for war. So I cross- ed the Nieman near Wilna. Alex- ander sent a general to me to as- sure me that he did not wish for war. I thought his mission was a ruse to prevent General Bagration from being intercepted. I went on with my military preparations.' Las Cases said: "If your majesty had made peacer with Spain and withdrawn your army from the pen- insula.you might have had from 150,000 to 200,000 more men." "But,"? replied the emperor, "that would have been 200,000 more - men lost. It seems that when I was at Moscow Alexander -wished.to. treat with me,ubut that he did not dare because he was surrounded by par- tisans of sEngland. He was afraid of being -strangled. I would not have declared war upon Russia but that 1 was persuaded that she was about to declare war upon me. [| well knew the difficulties to be en- eountered in such a campaign."' (In Russia the war was popular, as the people chafed against the restraint of the continental block- age Napoleon established. Gour- gaud thought that Napoleon might from the nature of his tents and preparations, have been preparing for a campaign on India if his Rus- rian campaign were successful.) - DOMINION ATLANTIC R. R. Great Improvements Have Made on It by the C.P.R. The record of improvements ef- fected on the Dominion Atlantic Railway, which the Canadian Paci- fic Railway leased in 1911 for 99 years shows that new wharves have been built; 45 miles of new track have been ballastéd; 30 miles of new 85-pound rails have been laid down; 120 cattle-guards have been filled and replaced by surface guards, while dozens of bridges have been either improved or re- built. In round figures, 6,000 feet of wooden bridges have been re- placed, or will be replaced very shortly, by steel bridges, concrete arches, and rail top. culverts. New brick stations have been built; a general renovation has taken place, costing many thousands of dollars. The new stations include those at Wolfville and Annapolis Royal, Mo- sherville, Patterson and Iberville. During the past two years 35 sta- tiong haye been repaired and paint- ed, and platforms have been erect- ed. A new line from Centreville to Weston, 14 miles in extent, has been built in the most substantial man- ner. Both permanent work and the lighter things which needed atten- tion have been carried out; and to- day the old Dominion Atlantic looks spick and span--looks as if it had taken on a new lease of life, Sa et eee With a Grain of Salt. The war has given rise to. all sorts of sensational statements and predictions. _ One writer, whose book has had a large sale in Eng- land and America, has said, for ex- ample, that the German general staff plans to launch Zeppelin air- ships filled with a gas fifteen times lighter than 'hydrogen, and made of a metal that, although as rigid as steel, is three 'times lighter than aluminum. In a letter to the Times, Sir William Rameay péints out the absurdity of this statement. Filling an airship wilh a gas of no weight at all, if such a gas existed, would not help much. A ballcon owes its buoyancy to hydrogen, a gas 144% times as light as aiv. If the gas had no weight at all, the buoyant power would be inereased very little. As for a metal only one-third as heavy as aluminum, chemists would agree that the existing of any such metal is in the highest degree improbable. There are excellent reascns for be- lieving that no light metal remains to be discovered. Again, whea Tur- key declared war cn Russia and England, the writer referred to pre- dicted in the New York press that the first move of Turkey would be to blow up the locks in the Suez Canal, Ag a matter of fact, the Suez Canal hag no locks, we Ready For Him Both Ways.

PALE AND SOKLT Need All the Strength That -- Good Red Bloed Can Give "Youth is the time to lay the foua- dation for health. Every boy and girl should have plenty of pure, red blood and strong nerves. With thin, impure blood 'they start life with a handicap too great to win success and happiness. Pure, red blood means healthful growth, strong nerves, a clear brain and a good digestion. In a word, pure blood is the foundation of health... The signs of thin, impure blood are many and unmistakable. The pale, irritable boy or girl, who has no appetite or ambition, is always tired out, melanchely, short of breath, and who does not grow strong, is the victim of anaemia, or bloodlessness--the greatest enemy of youth. There is just one thing to do for these boys and girls--build up the blood with Dr, Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. You can't afford to experiment with other remedies for there must be no guesswork in the treatment of anaemia. Through neglect or wrong treatment anae- mia gradually develops into the per- nicious form which is practically in- curable. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills work directly on the blood, giving it just the elements which it lacks. In this way these Pills build up every organ and nerve in the body, thus developing strong, rugged boys and girls. Miss Anna Loseke, Grand Forks, B.C., says: 'I think that before taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills I was one of the most miserable girls alive. I was hardly ever free from awful headaches, was as pale as a ghost, and could not go upstairs without stopping to rest.

The so-called Battle of the Aisne was a siege rather than a_ battle. For weeks the soldiers of both armies lived in the cleverly con- structed trenches they had dug among the hills and stone quarries. Here is a graphic picture of the life they led there, taken from an Eng- lish officer's letter in the London Times: Ten days ago we had arrived within sound of the firing, and were about to take our places in the trenches. That night we marched seven miles through the mud over roads that had been soaked by four days' rain and torn lby ceaseless traffic. The sound of guns and rifles grew louder as we approach- ed the front, and dead horses mark- ed the passage of the armies. We crossed the river Aisne, and hailt- ed near the village beneath 'the heights. . . . The brigade split into regiments, and ours went off up the hill, slippery with mud, to the trenches. We relieved a company of Irishman almost incoherent in their speech from their long ordeal, who had begun with the retreat from Mons, and had been fighting without ceasing ever since. Many had been killed, but with their weakened numbers they had taken these heights, and clung to them un- til our arrival. We posted sentries, and the com- pany took up its allotted line, find- ing cover behind the embankment of a quarry. The next day food ar- rived; we cooked-our tinned beef and boiled tea, cleaned our rifles, and began to feel more at home. Then we started to dig. No one knew how long we should stay, but the cover was bad, and gave no protection from the enemy's guns. And this we learned to our cost, for soon we had our first lesson about shrapnel. Our own artillery open- ed fire, and the shells passed over our heads into the enemy's lines. Then they replied, first at our guns and then at our trenches. Bang! Smash ! and a shower of pellets and earth, that was all. A horrid, un- pleasant sound, typical of destruc- tion. Yet, if men will remain under cover, no harm can befall. But they won't. Nothing-on earth will pre~ vent 'the British soldier from light- ing a fire toscook his tea, or from going round to borrow a light for his cigarette. Then the shrapnel catches him. It is not bravery or any other virtue. It is just his cheerful habit. Some men must go out, of course, on duty, and so there have been the casualties that you see in the papers. But with care, these losses should 'be slight while we remain in the trenches, And we begin to think we shall be there forever. Ten days! Aeroplanes watching us, and shells flying overhead by day, alarms and rifle fire by night. We live the life of 9 rabbit--digging ourselves deeper and deeper iuto the earth, until we are completely sheltered from above, coming out now and then{/ when things are quiet, to eook and eat, making any moves thait may be necessary under cover of darkness. Ammunition, food and drinking water are brought in by night; the wounded are sent away to the hospital. We Tdo not wash, we do not change our clothes; we sleep at odd intervals whenever we can get the chance, and daily we get more accustomed to our lot. Little holes are dug be- neath. the parapet just big enough to sit in are our homes, with straw and pottlebs a sack or two for warmth.- The cold.is 'intense at |night, and those good ladies who have made us woollen caps and com. ke < * ' Ss 7 sg forters have earned our thanks.

In the earlier half. of last century, whea there was no regular system of re- tirement in the British navy, many captains welll over that age 'were still anxiously waiting for promo- tion. In 1840 every captain on the list had held*post rank since Trafal- gar. Admiral Bowles took up his Deyonport command in his eightieth year. Lord Dundonald--who just a century ago was stripped of his hon- ors and put in the pillory on a false charge--was seventy-nine when he became "Admiral of the United Kingdom." In those days naval commanders were often accused of | being too feeble to walk vo their quarter-decks. Dundonald wad a brilliant exception. In 1856, in his eightieth year, this "last of the old sea kings" offered to blow up the walls of Sebastopol. -- London Chronicle, "k Death Nearly Claimed New Brunswick Lady Was Restored to Her Anxious Family When Hope Had Gone.

'My first attacks of back- ache and kidney trouble began years ago. For six years that dull, gnawing pain has been present. When I exert- ed myself it was terribly intensified.

In- stead of. being. bowed down with. pain, to-day I am strong, enjoy splendid ap- petite, sleep soundly.

A capital story which Lord Minto used to delight in telling was of an experience he had while he was Viceroy of India. One morning 10 Simla he wanted to speak to the Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army before the latter started work for the day, so he set off unattend- ed to pay an early call. When he arrived at the Commander-in- 'Chief's official residence he found his way 'barred by a sentry, who apparently did not recognize the visitor. Lord Minto explained that he wanted to see the Commander- in-Chief, but the sentry declined to allow him to pass. "But I am the Viceroy," protested his Lordship. 'The sentry looked at him with a pitying smile. "Ah,'"' he said, thoughtfully, '"we gets all sorts ere. Last week we 'ad a cove what kidded 'isself 'e was Queen Vic- toria's grandfather. We 'ad to put 'im in a strait-waistcoat, so you'd better push on." eis aici Pi graee as oe 25 German Shells to Kill a Man. One of the things frequently noted by soldiers at the front in writing to relatives and friends is the extraordinary expenditure of bullets required to kill a man. A German report states that many German soldiers fired 4,000 eart- ridges apiece during the first month of the war. An English observer estimated that 25 German shells are wasted for every man killed by them. In 1870 it was calculated that the Germans fired 150 bullets and six shrapnel shells for every wound- ed Frenchman. In the Russo-Japa- nese War it is said 3,000 bullets were fired for every life lost. Reckless Waste. say that that young Spenditt thas committed "They rounder suicide." "Yes. The doctor says he swal- lowed enough poison to kill fifty men."' "Just like him! Extravagant to the last."' Gentleman, to his rustic servant --Well, Jean, did you give the Gov- ernor my note?

An officer in the Corps writes :-- You know, reading the home pa- pers--I could almost wish that a horde of these gentry could descend on old England's shores. I don't think anything but that will ever arouse them to the awfulness of the thing that the thin (very, very thin in some places) khaki line in the trenches out here is fighting hard to keep from them; and that very thin line is doing each day something that has never been equalled even by the thin réd line of bygone days. IJ am not patting myself on the back, for my work lies behind the trenches, and I take off my shat to every mother's son thatis there. I should have thought that the recruits to the new Army would have exceeded the second milhon by now, and yet they don't seem to have got the first com- pleted yet. If they could only take the youth of England on a person- ally-conducted tour along our lines here so that they could realize what we are up against, I think they'd join in a body; but, failing that, the best. way to buck them up would be a hundred thousand Germans landing in England, I don't sup- pose they'd get'very far, still they would bring home to the smug arm- chair brigade as nothing else ever will something 'at least of the awful way in which Belgium and part of France has suffered. Those who are out here are doing miracles. : In the meantime, how- ever confident one may be of the result, we are still a long way off that salvation, and the present bat- tle is still raging backwards and forwards as fiercely as ever. As you said in your other letter, the old Scottish have done splendidly, and I am afraid, have lost rather heavily, but there isn't one regi- ment in the firing line that is doing better than one another; they are Army Service best, too. pst Mainisiiea "rabies aR Manslaughter in Second Degree Cutting corns with a razor is danger- ous and useless.
