columns formed on the Frankfort and
Botha's Pass block house line and ad-
vanced south, holding the entire coun-
try between the Wilge and Natal from
tier. On the first night very severe
attempt to break through was made
at point between Rimington's and
ByngS columns and the New Zealand
ers behaved with great gallantry. The
fighting was at close quarters and the
Beers, as usual, drove large herd of
cattle in front of them. Mamie Botha,,
the boy leader, was killed, and 35 dead
Beers were found on the ground. Over
100 horses were killed and 5000 head of
cattle were left in our hands Other
small attempts to break out were made
and in two cases succeeded. On the
last day 450 Beers with rifles and
horses were captured. All the columns
have not yet reported and the opera

How many meS-think it smart to say
ill-mannered things?
How forcibIe a man can become in dis
cussing a trifiing affair?
How effectually woman can be crush
ed by dignified silence?
How many women increase in import
ance after their marriage?
How many women take even friendly
criticism as a personal insultF
How easily a man can fish up an ex-
cuse for making a blNnder?
How hard a man will struggle TO secure
something for which he has no need?
How women like to make 1t appear they
contract big bills for wearing apparel!
