GERMANS FIRE ON
RETIRING BROTHERS
London Press Bureau Issues Ac-
count Written by Colonel
Swintor
By 4ssociaicd Press

London, Nov. 7. 11.15 a. M.-The
press bureau to-day issued the follow
ing account of events at the battle
front as witnessed and written by
Colonel f. d. Swinton, of the intelli-
gence department of the general staff.
The recital is dated November 1 and
says:
THE German troops have won our
respect for the way in which they have
advanced. Whether it is due to pa
triotism or to the fear induced by iron
discipline the fact remains that they
steadily press forward to what in
many cases must obviously have been
certain death.
That they are forced sometimes to
go on is shown by the following answer
to an interrogation put to a wounded
German prisoner:
German Soldiers Story
"'I enlisted in October of 1913. On
mobilization the weakly and those
backward in training to the number of
about 60 per cent of the company
were withdrawn from the active regi-
ment to form the nucleus of reserve
regiment which was completed by men
from Baden and Wurttemberg belong
ing to the second section of the land
wehr. We received new gray uni
forms. After ten weeks of hard train
ing we travelled for three days and
two nights, from Thuringia up to AK
la-Chappelle, where we remained in
reserve. We were told that our near
est enemies were the English.
Ion the 18th and 18th of October
we performed such fatiguing forced
marches that many men fell out on
the road, on October 19 we each re-
ceived 2S5 rounds of ammunition and
had our first taste of war Although
we were told there were only sharp
shooters in front of us, l saw French
Cavalrymen and no other foe. From
this day onward the fighting was unin-
terrupted. on October 20 my section
received orders to go forward to at
tack and our officers warned us that if
we gave way fire would be opened
upon us from behind. This threat was
carried out when the losses we suf-
fered compelled us to retire. Indeed,
it was by German bullet that 1 was
wounded.

LAW MAKES ~DRUNkARDS.

Following is IN excerpt from a SER
mon on THE Man Slayer in Our
Midst" by Rev. DR.. Manley Benson of
Canada. The words apply equally
we'll in the United States as in the
Dominion.
Some tell us that the revenue will
suffer II we stop the sale of strong
drink There is no revenue from the
sale Of strong drink. For every dollar
received as a so-called revenue you
taxpayers pay 500 to get that dollar!
Smart CD business, that. for our
young and growing Dominion! Some
say. You cannot make folk sober by
act of parliament but we are making
drunkards by act of parliament. True,
you cannot make men sober by law,
but law can remove the temptation.
You cannot cure smallpox by law, but
you can keep the pest ridden off our
streets by law! You cannot make q
man honest by law, but you a pun
ish and make 1t hot for the thief! The
law can be made to dry up the sources
Of this a~bominable traffic. We use
precautionary measures against fire
and flood; why not against a business

Child Acts SURGEONS Role.

Sarah Shaffer, thirteen years old, of
Los Angeles, Cal, developed into a
little heroine when her f~ive-year-old
sister fell on the sidewalk while at
play and shattered her elbow. DR..
Edward G. Wiley, chief police sur
geon, explained patiently over the tele-
phone how the splint should be put
on. and Sarah made such a good job
of it as to win the admiration of all
who saw the tiny patient when she ar
rived at the receiving hospital with
her little amateur nurse. The chill
dren's father is at the county hospital
and their mother went to visit him,
Maybelle fell and broke her arm. Sa-
rah called up the receiving hospital,
but owing to the distance was advised
to call one of the district doctors. She
could raise none, and again called the
receiving hospital. Doctor Wiley told
Sarah what to do to relieve the baby's
pain, while the ambulance raced out
10 the Shaffer home, and Sarah obeyed
instructions to the letter.

Charles R. Knight, the artist, whose

On an Atlantic City pier, gazing
sadly out over the blue water, a vet
eran of the Civil war talked about
the late General Sickles.
"A good man. he said, "a brave
man, but a most theatrical one. In
the black tragedy of his youth, he was
kind to his wife, but something
marred, something vitiated his kind
ness-I think it was theatricalism-
and the poor young woman died two
years after he took her back.
Once, at an army reunion, | heard
Sickles rebuke q man who was run
ming down wives and marriages.

INTERESTING COMPARISON.

A commission appointed by the Ger.
man government to compare the de-
scendants of drunkards with those Of
moderate drinkers has just made its
report. 1t studied ten families of each
class, as a result of which it states
that AZ per cent of the children of
drunkards die within a few months Of
their birth, against only 5 per cent of
the children of moderate drinkers.
Among the children of drunkards
there are 10 per cent idiots, s per
cent epileptics, s per cent dwarfs, and
in only ! per cen of them does the
intelligence develop normally.

HOW TO BE gift"

Sir Frederick Treves, surgeon to
the late King Edward, recently said;
There is a great desire on the part
Of all young men to be fit. A young
man cannot possibly be fit IL he takes
alcohol. By no possibility can he
want 1t. That any one young or
healthy should want alcohol Is simply
preposterous. They might just as
well want %strychnine. Thus the argu-
ment for the young man is: You
want to be a man, and you want to
be fit. You cannot get fit on alcohol.
No man dreams of going into
training and taking alcohol. He must
reach the acme of physical perfec-
ton. and that must be without alco-
hol."

At the diamond jubilee of the United

that the fight against tuberculosis and

@ORTY YEARS AGO almost every mother thought her child must have

FROM WHICH THERE IS NO WAKING. Many are the children who
have been killed or whose health has been ruined for life by paregOrc, lauda-
num and morphine, each of which is a narcotic product Of opium. Druggists
ire prohibited from selling either of the narcotics named to children at all, II
to anybody without labelling them poison" The definition Of, narcotic"
is: "A medicine uhch reheres pain and produces sleep, but UhUh IN poison
