Washington he suffered greatly from
pains in his neck.
SIGHT RESTORED

SIGHT RESTORED
A Washington specialist found that
the vertebrae at the base of Skeyhilrs
neck had been dislocated in three
places, presumably by the shock that
had blinded him. A simple Osteopath-
ic operation was undertaken, and as
the vertebrae were snapped back in
to position the sight returned to the
soldiers eyes. II was explained by
the physician that the displaced bone
had impaired blood circulation and
nerve connections with the eye cen.
ters of the brain.
As the realization came to Skeyhill
that the darkness that had hung over
him for more than two years had been
dispelled, he became seized with an
ecstatic Joy that nearly nnhinged his
mind. His mind became a blank con
cerning the years that had elapsed
since his injury, and he imagined him
self back in the bayOnet charge In
which he had been wounded. His con
dition became so acute that he was
removed to a hospital, but after a
nights sleep he regained his mental
pOise.
Skeyhill Immediately after the Oper
alton was able to see objects with per
feet clarity, but for several days was
afflicted with color blindness. This
rapidly is disappearing. and his sight
is expected to be as good as ever In
a short time. His case is believed tC
be the first in which complete cure
of shell-shOck has been effected.
The soldier-poet will complete his
work in the Red Cross drive. and ther
will try to rejOin his Amaze comrades
in the trenches overseas.

Proper Food for Weak stomachs

The proper food for one man may
be all wrong for another. Everyone
should be adopt diet suited to his
age and occupation. Those who have
weak stomachs need to be especial
ly careful and should eat slowly and
masticate their food thoroughly. 1t
is also important that they keep their
bowels regular. When they become
constipated or when they feel dull
and stupid after eating, they should
take Chamberlain's Tablets Ia
strengthen the stomach and move the
bowels. They are easy to take and
pleasant in effect.

story of the Light that Failed" But

to the trenches.
It was in the fierce fighting before
Gallipoli in 1916 that Thomas Skeyhill.
signaller in the Amaze forces, was
instantly blinded by the blast of an
exploding shell. Following a terrific
bOmbardment from the FrancO-B British
fleets that succeeded in silencing the
Turkish forts at the entrance to the
Dardenelles, thousands of Irish, Aus
tralians and New Zealanders with
British and French troops landed in an
effort to sweep past the defenses of
the Peninsula and take COnstantin.
