WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES IN
THE FIELD, Oct. 5.-The most i'm
portant British victory OF the war
was how Field Marshal Haig's great
stroke OF yesterday appeared today.
Latest reports az headquarters as
this is being filed give every indica-
ton pointing to complete dlsorgan-
ization Of the enemy
Special praise was given all the
units engaged. They were repre-
sentative OF all sections Of the British
empire. The Anzacs, English. Scot
tish. Irish and New Foundlanders all
participated. The claim their share
OF achieving a victory, which, as its
magnitude appeared more clearly to-
day, seems destined to be one OF the
great marks of the whole great war
More than 5000 prisoners were
taken. II was the greatest drive yet
made by the British in Flanders.

WAS A MAGNANlMOUS PAGAN
SaIadin, Conquerer of Jerusalem, Did
Not Shed Drop of Christian Blood
When City Fell.

1t was in 1893 that Saladin died in
Damascus, leaving behind him a repu-
tation for magnanimity unique in that
age, and only exceeded by his fame as
d warrior
1t was only six years before his
death that Saladin defeated Guy de
Lusignan, the Christian king of Jeru-
salem, and obtained possession of the
sacred city, which had been captured
by the Crusaders SS years before. The
golden cross waf pulled down and
dragged through the streets of the
city, and the Mosque of Omar, which
had been consecrated to Christ, was re-
stored to the worship of Mohammed.
But not a drop of Christian blood was
shed after the capitulation. Instead OF
butchering thousands Of the inhabi-
tantS, as the Christians had done after
conquering the city, Saladin ordered
that none should be harmed. The
weeping queen was treated with great
consideration, and Saladin was so
moved by her misery that he is said to
have shed tears Of sympathy. Later,
during the third crusade, the Chris
tians under Richard Occur de Lion be-
headed in cold blood 5000 Saracen
hostages, and Saladin revenged himself
upon Christians in his power On the
whole, however, he was vastly better
than most of the rulers of his time.

FORD ATTACHMENT
DOES THE FLOWING

Times are sure changing Years
ago the merry farmer arose with the
dawn, and after spending a few hours
currying horses, milking COWS and
''choring" around in general, he ate
his breakfast, and then hitched up to
the plow and followed it for about fif-
teen miles for his daily recreation
Then, after spending a couple more
hours with the horses and other live
stock, be fell into the hay, and was
dead to the world until the rooster
crowed again.
If you had been at the farm of Frank
Gronert on last Saturday afternoon
you might have seen a couple of hun
dred very much interested farmers,
and heard some talk which would have
sounded strange to your ears-if you
had not listened to farmer talk for say
ten or fifteen years.
The croud of farmers had assembled
at the Gronert farm by invitation of
Klinger e Mayer Co., of the Ford gar
age of Watertown for the purpose of
witnessing a demonstration of the
ing any model T. Ford car into an eff
cient practical and economical light
tractor
With very little changes in the car,
pair of tractor wheels are fitted onto
the rear gear, a two gang pillow is at
tached, and instead Of a straining and
creaking of harness, and a pillow pro-
gress toward the other side of the
field, there is a popping Of cylinders,
and the former plowboy, instead of
staggering along in the furrow guild
ing the pillow and also three or four
horses, sits on a cushion manipula-
ting the steering wheel and inhaling
the fumes of gasoline which smells
just the same as those from a twelve
thousand dollar car on Michigan, av-
enue, Chicago.
But that is not all, the "Tracford"
does the work, scooting across the
fields, and dragging after it the two
gang pillow at double the speed of any
horses ever invented. What is more,
the Tracford does not get tired, and
can go night and day in an emergency
1t is simple, and delivers the goods,
and is but one of those marvellous in
ventions of the age in which we are
now living. Klinger & Mayer state
that they are hustling to fill orders,
but believe that from now on they can
make prompt deliveries.

Frozen Fish Live for Years,

A live fish gradually frozen in a cake
of ice does not die; it merely suspends
all life processes. When the ice melts
if it does so slowly, the fish takes up
Its vital activities again as if nothing
had happened. This phenomenon, says
the University Of Washington News
Letter, was described by Prof E. Vic
tor Smith of the department of 70
ology, in discussing a recent announce
ment that Swiss naturalist had re-
vived frozen fish. There is no reason
why a fish, if frozen in a cake Of ice,
should not be revived even at the end
Of ten years." said Professor Smith.
Gases of frozen cold-blooded animals
are not uncommon. Frogs are many
times frozen for long periods of time,
and turtles will live even under ordi-
nary circumstances for a year without
food" The process of freezing fish
must be accompanied with the great
est care, he said. The temperature of
the water must be reduced slowly in
the freezing process and must be grad
ually raised in the thawing part of the
experiment.

FIRST WEEK PROVES WONDER
Full SUCCESS FOR TONEAL
DAILY PROVES STOMACH TROUBLE EPIDEMIC HERE--THS MAN
is CREATING A SENSATION IN WATERFOWL
PEOPLE FLOCK TO HIS QUARTERS.

The. first week of the Toneal mans
visit to Watertown indicates that he
is enjoying the same remarkable sue
cess here as elsewhere. The crowds
that gather daily at the Gamm Drug
Store have been steadily increasing
since the day of his arrival.
When interviewed Mr.. Daily said ::
81 claim 80 per cent of all i'll health is
due to stomach trouble. 1t is the
curse of the 10th century Practical
iy all the chronic i'll health of this
generation is due to abnormal stOm-
ach conditions; therefore, I believe
the human stomach of the present
highly civilized race has become de-
generated in early days, when the hui
man race was close to nature, and
men and women worked all day out
of doors digging a. frugal existence
from the soil, the tired, droopy, half
sick people that are now so common
did not exist To be sure there was
sickness, but it was of a viruIent
character and only temporary There
was none Of the half sick all of the
time condition with which so many
are afflicted
I'm the horse, the COW, the dog,
when let alone and not turned into a
parlor pet, in the wild animals you
see no chronic debility, no nerve ex-
haustion. 1t is because their stom-
achs are in sound condition They
are not shut in all day with little ex-
ercise, and they do not stuff them
selves with food when their body has
not had enough work to justify it.
