Duffy's a Lifetime Benefit

gray column. To this no reply was made
by our side.
Shortly afterwards there was a quick
succession of reports from a point some
distance up the valley on the side OPP
posite our trenches and therefore rather
on their flank. 1t was not possible
either by ear or eye to locate the guns
from which the sound proceeded. Almost
simultaneously, as II seemed, there was
a corresponding succession of flashes and
sharp detonations in the line which APP
peared to be our trenches. There was
then pause and several clouds of smoke
rose slowly and remained stationary,
spaced as regularly as poplars.
Succession of Reports.
Again there was a succession of re
ports from German quick firers on the
far aside of the misty valley, like echoes
of detonations of high explosives; then
the row of expanding smoke clouds was
prolonged by several new ones. Another
pause and silence, except for the noise
in the distance.
After a few minutes there was a roar
from one side of the main valley as our
field guns opened one after another on y
more deliberate fire on the positions Of
the German guns After some reports
there was again silence. save for tho
whirr of shell as they sang up the small
valley. Then followed flashes and balls
of smoke-one, two, three, four, five. six
as the shrapnel burst over what in the
haze looked like some ruined buildings at
the edge of the Wood
Again, after short interval the
enemy's guns opened with a burst, still
further prolonging the smoke, which was
by now merged into one solid screen above
a considerable length of the trenches, and
again did our guns reply and so the duel
went on for some time.
Ignore Hostile Guns.
ignoring our guns the German artillery
men, probably relying on concealment for
immunity. were concentrating all their
efforts in a particularly forceful effort to
enfilade our trenches. For them 1t must
have appeared to be the chance of a life
time and with their customary prodigality
of ammunition they continued to throw
high explosives or common shells into
our works.
Occasionally, with a roar high angle
projectile would sail over the hill and
| blast a gap in the village. One could only
| pray that our men holding the trenches
had dug themselves in deep and well, and
that those in the village were in cellars.
In the hazy valleys, bathed in sunlight
not a man, not a horse, not gun. nor
even a trench, was to be seen.
There were only flashes and smoke

Many Millions Left
By King Leopold.

Brussels, March 29.-The private
fortune left by King Leopold amounts
to $21, 900, 900, according to a govern
ment memoranda attached to the bill
for settlement of the estate. The
figures support the reputation which
Leopold had of being one of the
shrewdest business men in Europe,
and as large as they are, they do not
include about $6,000,000 given to the
Baroness Vaughn, second wife of the
King, nor various other millions he
gave away. In the long termination of
his personal property it appears that
he held shares in companies all over
the world to the present total value of
$12,000,000.
AS previously announced, the Bel
gian government proposes to pay the
three daughters $1,000,000 each in con-
sideration of their giving up further
claims, and to pay the Empress Char
lotte of Mexico 100000 for the royal
properties CT Ciergnon and Ardenne.
The state will also renounce claim
for about 100000 of shares in the
Congo. which King Leopold had given
to his unfortunate sister, Charlotte.
and pay $1,200.000 for that part of the
millions invested in the Foundation of

Right to Hiss Play
Upheld by Court.

London, March 29.-The Briton has
common law right to hiss a play,
provided he does so within bounds.
This right, first affirmed in a case re-
ported in 1910. has been reaffirmed by
a Dublin magistrate, who discharged
man charged with kissing a play re-
Gently imported from the continent.
The defendant said the play was for
eign filth" and he considered it his
duty to protest. His protest was so
violent that the play was interrupted
for some minutes.
The leading case of 1910 appears to
have been the first instance of prose-
cution for this offense. Counsel in
that case said it bad been difficult to
find precedents, for although ''cat calls
are as old as the English drama, Mr.
Garrick and the first men who have
undertaken the management of our
theatrical concerns have hitherto
eheerfully yielded to the jurisdiction
of the pit without a thought of APP
pealing to the courts"
In the case of Gregory VS.. the Duke
of Brunswick, reported in lS43, the
defendants We're sued for conspiracy
to hiss eff the stage an actor who was
appearing as Hamlet. They set up
that they considered the mans private
character and career 50 bad as to dis
qualify him from playing. They adj
mitted that they did "a little boot, hiss
groan and yell at the plaintiff, and
make a little noise, cutlery and uproar
at and against the plaintiff, but they
made only such a disturbance "as for
the causes aforesaid" (the plaintiffs
eharacter) they lawfully might"
1t is said, however, that Macklin,
the famous comedian, obtained a YER
dict of guilty in a prosecution against
diverse persons for a conspiracy to
hiss him off the stage whenever he
might appear, and it is probable that
the wanton hisser today would find
himself without the law. If, however,
the Kissing be the spontaneous out
come of the spectators feelings, he
can safely "hoot hiss, groan and yell.'

4 Woman's Health

Every woman's health is peculiarly
dependent upon the condition of her
blood. How many women suffer with
headache, pain in the back, poor appe-
tite, weak digestion, constant feeling
of WEAKNESS, palpitation of the heart,
shortness of breath, pallor and ner-
vousness? If you have any of these
symptoms, do not despair of getting
better but begin now, today, to build
up your blood with DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. See how the nervous energy of
the body is restored as the blood be-
comes pure and red and the entire sys-
TEN is strengthened to meet every de-
mand upon it.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are useful
for all women but they are particular
ly valuable to girls of school age who
show symptoms Of going into a decline,
who become pale, nervous and languid.
These Pills aid in securing perfect de-
velopment and health by strengthen
ing the system and purifying and
building up the blood. Thin blood dur
ing the growing years of a girls life
usually means a fat-chested and hol-
low-cheeked womanhood. There car
be neither health nor beauty without
red blood which gives brightness to the
eyes and color to cheeks and lips.

State of Maine
Corn Situation

A number of reports have been
published in commercial and trade
journals relative to the corn pack in
Maine the coming season. The ma
jority of them were to the effect that
little or no corn would be packed in
Maine and that the packers as a
whole had withdrawn quotations. 9th
er reports were to the effect that the
packers were unable to secure acre
age from the farmers. That the true
state of affairs might be learned, an
officer of one of the largest packing
concerns was interviewed today as to
the outlook and possibilities of the
season coming. He said, speaking Of
the Maine corn situation: THE acre
age at our various plants is coming
along very well; at most of our can
neries the acreage is already sub
scribed.
Owing to the conservative policy
adopted by the trade orders are not
as large as they were last year and
it is not the disposition among the
packers to force sales nor to take on
as large an acreage this year as they
have booked in former years.
1t seems to be the disposition
among all packers not to increase their
business this year. but to go slowly
and wait until business improves.
While the yield of Maine corn last
year was not up to the average and
the pack was consequently small, the
pack of Western corn was very large
and more than made up for the short
age from this State.
A few years ago Western packers
paid little attention to quality, their
main idea being to pack quantity, but
a great many of the leading packers
throughout the West, particularly in
New York state, realizing the folly of
this course, have given more atten-
ton the past few years to packing just
as fine quality corn as they can pack,
consequently. they are much more
dangerous competitors today than
they were few years ago.
From reports we receive from all
parts of the country, there is going to
be no difficulty whatever in the pack
ers' securing all the acreage they will
require, but they are not going to
need as large an acreage this year as
they had last
