Em oi uouoine‘s 16 POWDER COTLAN FROM HEB READ LABEL hiands re €1 ul 10 The other and no less important element in their psychology is, of course, their absolute and mechanical disciplineâ€"a discipline which puts the herd into the hands of the leader, like a several hundred, thousand or million horseâ€"power, or rather " manâ€" power" engine, to be hurled at his pleasure in this or that direction. This discipline is not, as with us, a mere necessity of war. It is founded firstly on the idea of caste (we are very much struck in France by the fact that, in spite of their enormous losses in officers, they still avoid makâ€" ing lieutenants of their sergeants and Feldwebels), an idea very different as much as possible to the judgment and enterprise of each man. The strength of the German is in the orâ€" ganized herd. Their attacks remind one of the charge of the buffaloes which have closed together to stamp the tiger under foot. A friend who saw some of the battlefields of the Marne before the dead were buried told me that even in death this difâ€" ference between the temper of the two races is to be seen. The French dead, he said, were scattered here and there like poppies in a cornfield (this was at the beginning of the war, when the French army still wore the tradiâ€" tional red trousers) : the Germans lay in grey heaps like inanimate swarms. This gregarious feature of the enemy struck our men in the very first battles of the campaign. " We got sick with killing them," a woundâ€" ed zouave who was just back from Charleroi told me. " But the more of‘ them you killed the thicker they came. Ants . . . they were like ants, a‘ continuous tide of ants. . . . ." _ We have now entered upon the fourth month of the battle of Verdun, with new frantic efforts on the part of the Germans to break our defence. But they have made no important progrtss since the end of February, when the suddenness and secretly acâ€" cumulated power of the blow gained them a few miles. They have even here and there lost ground, and the initiative of the fight has repeatedly passed on our side. A neutral gentâ€" leman who has just come back from the invaded departments, where he had been engaged for a year on reâ€" lief work, told me a month ago that he had seen the whole slow and enorâ€" mous preparation of the attack. In January and February the German officers with whom his work brought him in daily contact were constantly speaking of the coming coup as if no doubt of success could be entertained, writes Andre Chevrilton, in Country Life. Nothing, said my friend, who had learned to know them well, was more significant than their reticence as to Verdun during the last weeks of his stay with them. The subject had become taboo. And yet they still launch their masâ€" sive attacks, in which their men come shoulder to shoulder, to fall in long, rapidly increasing heaps under the fire of our machineâ€"guns. If one had not heard from the Russian side as well as from our front of German prisoners who were taken still smellâ€" ing of ether, and who confessed to having been under a special diet beâ€" fore being thus hurled in serried ranksâ€"twelve deep to the yardâ€"to butchery, one would not know which‘ to admire most ; the blind, absolute devotedness of those men, or the in-l domitable temper of those French soldiers who were supposed to have more elan than staying power, and who manage to find shelter in the craters that have been dug by a terâ€" rific Trommel Feuer , and there, in little packs of survivors or isolated, with what is left of machineâ€"guns, most of the protective wire being wiped out, succeed in stopping the thick waves of the advancing enemy. Strength of the German. All the essential difference between the two peoples is to be seen in theI two sides of such a picture. _ The French are individualists ; the value of the nation is that of the individ-l uals. Hence their achievement in air | craft and their rapid success in the | noble art ; hence also the g'eneral| tendency of our school of tactics,‘ which, leaning on national psychology, | favours the ordre disperse and leaves , Canadian Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., â€"a food that benefits users remarkably.

Flavourâ€"=â€"â€" GERMAN PSYCHOLOGY FOOD | The second instance is, perhaps, ‘\more significant. An officer who had | come on leave from his post in the 'Ineighborhood of La Ferme Navarin | was telling us the peculiar method |which the Hun used to retake, two months ago, a certain length of that ‘iposition. On both sides the usual rule for an attack is to cover for some hours with " Trommel Feuer" the line which you want to conquer, and when the moment for the rush 'icomes to increase the range, in order ‘to avoid killing your own people as ithey approach the enemy, thus creatâ€" ing at the same time a curtain fire | which cuts off the position from posâ€" sible reinforcements. As long as the "Trommel Feuer" is over them the assailed party remain buried in their |holes, but as soon as the range is (changed and they hear the shells bursting in their rear they know that 'the onslaught is coming, and, leaping | out of their dugâ€"outs, begin to take aim with rifles and machineâ€"guns. Well, what the Germans did in this particular attack was simply not to increase their range. They kept their ltroopsâ€"a very dense formationâ€"unâ€" | der their own fire, so that our men ! did not know the rush was coming till |the enemy was dropping hand grenâ€" ; ades into their trench. For this sucâ€" cess about a thousand Germans were killed by German guns. France Will Not Fail Such methods may give an insight into the reasons of the continued treâ€" | mendous attacks at Verdun. Probabâ€" 'ly the leaders have their doubt as to their ever entering that city, and sureâ€" ly they know that, should they take | it, they would have gained no decisive ladvantage, that the French would fall ;back on prepared stronger lines. But they know that their men are mere matter in their hands ; they do not shrink from hurling them into the fire for the sake of keeping up the furâ€" nace, a furnace where both armies are meltingâ€"though not at the same rate. They know that time is against Gerâ€" many. that she cannot afford to wait and â€"simply defend the territories which she won at the first blow by the methods we know. Their last aim must be slaughter for the sake of slaughterâ€"continuous and wholesale slaughter in which it does not matter to them if their men fall by hundreds of thousands, as long as the French fall by fifties of thousands. . They reckon that they will feed and inâ€" crease the furnace till the neutrals raise a ery of horror and try to in« tervene, or till French sensibility and humanity at the back cannot stand any more the sight of French manâ€" hood gradually withering in that fln:o. ‘ But France knows that if her will failed her she would be doomed. She knows from her previous experiences , In Champagne some of our aviators noticed behind the German line and at a safe distance from our guns strange activities of the enemy. They "seemed to be fighting between themâ€" selves over a netwOrk of lines which in no way connected with the rest of the defence. Photographs were taken and revealed two distinct and elaborâ€" ate systems of trenches. The puzzle was solved when an officer suddenly perceived one of the two systems to be an exact copy of a particularly strong French labyrinth, the other reâ€" producing the German defence in front of it. In a war which puts a terrific strain on human energy, at a time when men are generally sent to the back only for a spell of rest, German soldiers had been set by their leaders to the stupendous extra task of digâ€" ging two complete networks of trenchâ€" es for the object of methodically reâ€" hearsing a possible attack. To those who know what such work means and the awful drudgery of it, the fact is amazing. | What Germans Call Heroism " Body and soul" they belong to their Kaiser. He knows what he can exact from them. _ At Dinant and Aerschot it was to open fire with machineâ€"guns in the market place, beâ€" fore the shrieking women, on a crowd of men, after wiring them in. At Verdun it is to march in continuous rows, line behind line, over the dead heaps of those that went before them against the fire that mows them down. On the part of the soldiers this may be called heroism. Our own men go more quietly to what they know is certain death ; they are not carried on by the impetus of a solid human mass in which those who are behind push those who are in front without feeling the immediate risk. 1 will give two recent instances of the curious passivity, of the sheer spirit of obedience that often goes with Gerâ€" man heroism, and by which men are changed into toolsâ€"wonderful tools to be used for good or badâ€"and to be thrown wholesale into the furnace, if waste, as sometimes happens, pays â€"however so little. * from the distinction between classes which prevails in other countries. In England, for instance, the old rural social principle that " one should know one‘s betters " is tempered by the reâ€" ligious principle that ©a man is perâ€" sonally responsible to God for all his acts, that his inner self cannot be surrendered. No liberty with it, no attempt to compel his conscience, no slight to his honor, whether from his equals or his betters, should be toleraâ€" ted. Kipling‘s story, " His Private Honour," gives the precise shade of the feeling. You can also see it in " Richard Feverel," when the old Engâ€" lish farmer resolutely demands as his right an apology from the squire‘s son. _ How far removed from this proud and individualistic idea is the Hun conception of heirarchy the inâ€" cidents of Zabern have taught us. Was it not in connection with these incidents that a member of the British Cabinet said : "In this country the honour of the lord is exactly on the same footing as that of a costermonâ€" ger" ? Allow Themselves to Be The Curtain Fire. At one camp in Surrey digging operations began last week, and the seed potatoes are to be planted in a few days in rows between the huts. A number of men are being told off each day for digging, and others are being asked to help in spare time. At a camp in Yorkshire potato growâ€" ing began some weeks ago. It is unâ€" derstood that instructions will soon be issued for the growing of vegetables. Military requirements are very large and little more than half the usual supplies of potatoes are coming into the markets, with the result that preâ€" war prices to the public are nearly doubled. British Soldiers Planting Between Camp Huts. The army has started to grow its own potatoes. Instructions have been sent, or are being sent, from the War Office to every command, indiâ€" cating the lines which should be folâ€" lowed, says a story from British army headquarters. _ Bordered east and west by arid schub?covered steppes, north by open country, and south by dense jungle, the highlands form an oasis in the wilderness. Extending southeast and northwest for 75 miles, they vary in breadth from 1 to 45 miles. The hills rise tbruptly 1,500 feet to 1,700 feet from the surrounding plain, and the most lofty peaks are over 7,500 feet above the sea. The valleys, deep and narrow, through which rush picâ€" turesque torrents, and the hillsides, are under cultivation ; the native population is dense, and long before the comir(z of the white man they had flourishing and extensive shambas. Soon after the proclamation of the German protectorate a site in one of the southâ€"western valleys was chosen as a Government post. Named Wilâ€" hemstal, in honor of the Kaiser, it has grown into a considerable town, with fine public and private buildings, Its healthy climate, picturesque valleys and mountains, and luxuriant vegetation attracted attention to Usâ€" ambara from the first establishment of German rule, and its nearness to the coast rendered it easily accessâ€" ible. Toâ€"day it possesses scores of thriving plantations, pleasant and wellâ€"built towns, and excellent roads. Its European population is about 3,000 Usambara Described as the Gem of German East Africa. Wilhemstal, the capital of the Usâ€" ambara Highlands, was occupied a short time ago by General Smuts, and as the enemy have abandoned its seaport, Tanga, it would appear that the whole of this region, the most setâ€" tled and most prosperous part of German East Africa, will shortly be in undisputed possession of the Briâ€" tish. _ You can get Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills from any dealer in medicine or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams‘ Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. ' Thin blooded people usually have stomach trouble. They seldom recogâ€" nize the fact that thin blood is the cause of the trouble, but it is. In fact thin, impure blood is the most common cause of stomach trouble : it affects the digestion very quickly. The glands that furnish the digestive fluid are diminished in their activity ; the stomach muscles are weakened, and there is a loss of nerve force. In this state of health nothing will more q_uickly restore the appetite, the digesâ€" tl_on and normal nutrition than good rich, red blood. Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills act directly on the blood, making it rich and red, and this enriched blood strengthens weak nerves, stimulates tired muscles and awakens the normal activity of the glands that supply the digestive fluids. The first sitgn of imâ€" proving health is an improved appeâ€" tite, and soon the effect of these blood making pills is evident throughout the system. You find that what you eat does not distress you, and that you are strong and vigorous instead of irritâ€" able and listless. This is proved by the case of Mrs. J. Harris, Gerrard St., Toronto, who says : " About three years ago I was seized with a severe attack of indigestion and vomiting.‘ My food seemed to turn sour as soon‘ as I ate it, and I would turn so deadly | sick that sometimes I would fall on the floor after vomiting. I tried a lot of | home remedies, but they did not helpl me. Then I went to a doctor who gave | me some powders, but they seemed acâ€" ‘ tually to mzake me worse instead of better. This went on for nearly twol months, and by that time my stomach | was in such a weak state that I could | not keep down a drink of water, and | I was wasted to a skeleton and felt | that life was not worth living. I was | not married at this time, and one Sunâ€" ! day evenir(g¢ on the way to church with my intended husband I was taken with | a bad spell on the street. He took me [ to a drug store where the clerk fixed | up something to take, and my intended | got me a box of Dr. Williams‘ Pink | Pills. By the end of the first week I could feel some improvement from the | use of the Pills, and I gladly continued | taking them until every symptom of | the trouble was gone, and I was again enjoying the best of health. These Pills are now my standby and I tell all my friends what they did for me." _ | Ask for Minard‘s and tako no other of her enemy that peace would be for him but breathing time till he felt strong enough for a new and proâ€" bably stronger aggressionâ€"that if she stopped before the monster‘s teeth are broken, sooner or later it would mean death for her. She also knows that the odds are now against him, that at the game he is playing he cannot outlast the Allies. That knowledge steels the mother heart to the horror. A CAUSE OF INDIGESTION People Who Complain of This Trouble Usually Are Thin ARMY GROWS POTATOES. GEN. SMUTS‘ CONQUEST. Mess Different. Reddâ€"An automobile is so differâ€" ent from a horse. Greeneâ€"Why, of course. "You see, a horse goes faster when he‘s going home than . when going away from home." "Well, doesn‘t an automobile?" "Oh, no; you see, an automobile ofâ€" ten has to be towed home." "It ain‘t that, sir," explained the barber. _ "You see, sometimes I make a mistake and snip off a little bit of a customer‘s ear;" The man getting his hair cut noâ€" ticed that the barber‘s dog, which w lying on the floor beside the chair, had his eyes fixed on his master at work. "Nice dog, that," said the customer. "He is, sir." "He seems very fond of watching you cut hair." " Of the £5,000,000 daily war exâ€" penditures of England about 40% is coming back to the country in wages and expenditures for war supplies ; about 40% is money loaned to the Allies, the colonies, India, and other dependencies, so that of the total aâ€" mount only about 20% is an actual charge against the Government." "It is calculated that 70% of the war revenue is contributed by payers of income tax and other direct taxaâ€" tion, that is by persons whose inâ€" come is above $800 per annum, and only 30% by those with smaller inâ€" comes. _ The entire taxation, direct and indirect, last year amounted to about £350,000,000. " Strange as it may sound, an enormous portion of the money raised by the British Government has been due to advertising. For the first time in history the British Government has made use of the gratuitous service of some of the leading advertising men, which service has been immensely profitable to the Government. _ The British Treasury has used the same methods adopted by highâ€"class merâ€" cantile houses to sell their goods and they have succeeded beyond expectaâ€" tion. _A very large amount of the fiveâ€"year Treasury bonds has been sold to the working classes. The lowest denomination of these bonds is £1, which is sold as advertised for 15s. 6d, for which amount the investor obtains the face value of the bond at maturity; or, in other words, he makes a profit of 4s. 6d., or a little over 29% in the five years, which represents nearly 6% annually. The financial condition of Great Briâ€" tain at this advanced period of the war is most remarkable. The marâ€" kets are all buoyant, the minimum reâ€" striction on sales of stocks is being removed, and as they reach a proper level as regards the value of money toâ€"day (due to war conditions), there is a tremendous amount of money for investment. _A large part of the money whereby England is financing herself and other nations is the proâ€" ceeds of the sale of American securiâ€" ties, made by private holders to the British Government, which is being used as it is collected. Another large part is derived from the enormous amount of profit being made by manuâ€" facturers of war supplies. Then aâ€" gain, the restriction imposed by the Government on the investment of Briâ€" tish capital outside of the country is responsible for a tremendous amount of money being kept at home which would otherwise find investment aâ€" broad. Keep Minard‘s Liniment | _" Notwithstanding the heavy exâ€" penditure of Great Britain since the outbreak of the war, and the heavy drafts upon the public, the debt of Great Britain toâ€"day is only about oneâ€"half of what it was per capita at the end of the Napoleonic War. In 1816, just after the Battle of Waterâ€" loo, the public debt per capita was £43. ‘That amount in proportion to the inâ€" come of the country at that time, comâ€" pared with the income of the present day, represented a debt of £120 per head. In August, 1914, the public debt was £14 per capita, and every one thousand millions of pound sterlâ€" ing issued since represents £20 per capita ; so that the present day debt of Britain is not much more than 50% of the equivalent debt at the end of the Napoleonic War. f A Creditor Nation. ‘ "It should be borne in mind that‘ England is financing France, Italy,} Russia and Serbia in the present war, and is carrying the entire charge of ‘ Belgium.

Jones and his wife were seated at the dining room table perusing the evening papers when the doorbell rang. _ Jones arose to answer it, when his wife said: "Why, do you think someborly wil steal them ?" asked Jones. "No," replied his wife. "Some on might recognize them." As a matter of fact, says the " Kolâ€" nische," they do not know what they have written. After they have writâ€" ten and sealed their letters they forâ€" get all about them, and they wonder when they hear from home, why their friends are all so anxious about them. That is the explanation. It is only homeâ€"sickness. "Let me hide those umbrellas beâ€" fore you let them in." And yet, after exact investigation, says the " Kolnische," it has been proved that the writers of these letâ€" ters are in excellent spirits. . What, then, is the explanation ? The writâ€" ers are simply afflicted with homeâ€" sickness. They are thinking of their homes. They do not wish to make those at home sad or cheerless, but so long as they have a pen in their hands they see their home life swim before their eyes, and hear the chilâ€" dren‘s talk, they see the friendly faces of wives, parents, friends, they see the sunshine round their homes, and a longing for the old life and peace comes over them. It is this that casts a shadow over their surroundings, and this shadow finds its expression in their letters. Write Their Letters From the Front in Melancholy Tones. The " Kolnische Zeitung" remarks that it has been generally observed that numerous letters from German soldiers at the front are couched in melancholic tones, giving to friends and relatives the impression that the writer is sad, and filling the hearts of those at home with uneasiness.
