Is 1t Rheumatism?
Aren't You Really on the Wrong
Track?

A good share of so-called rheuma-
tism is caused by weak kidneys.
When the kidneys fail to clear the
blood of uric acid,' the acid irritates
the delicate nerves. Torturing pains
dart through the affected part when
ever it is moved. By strengthening
the kidneys, Doan's Kidney Pills have
proven their worth in thousands of
so-called rheumatic cases, lumbago,
sciatica, gravel, and urinary disor-
ders. Doan's are well known in Bar
ton and warmly recommended by
Barton people. Read this Barton

Vermont War Hero Home.

A Green Mountain boy hero from
the battlefelds Of France, Corporal
Frank L. Robinson, is at his home in
Waterbury. He has given his two legs
and an eye for the cause of the allies.
His mother said on the night of his
return that it was the happiest night
she had known for two years.
The sight of the young hero as he
was lifted from the automobile caused
a clutch at the hearts of onlookers. 1t
brought the war home to them poign-
antly.
Three years ago he enlisted in the
Fifth Canadian Mounted Rifles. He
was first gassed and then wounded,
at Vimy Ridge, where in a sapper's
trench, shell hit him. One leg had
to be amputated. AS he was being
carried on the stretcher to a dressing
station, he received a minor injury to
the other leg. He was finally brought
to Canada and sent to the big army
hospital at Kingston, Ont. There two
operations were performed to save his
remaining leg, but without avail, and
it finally had to be taken off.
There are three stars in the family
service flag, Corp. Robinson's brother
and his brother-in-law, serving.

GALLANTRY OF CANADIANS
Numerous stories of PrOwess in Re-
cent Fighting East of Amiens.

Numerous stories are coming to
hand of Individual gallantry and mi
tiative on the field in the recent
fighting east of Amiens, says a des-
patch from correspondent with the
Canadian forces in France. A Mani
toba battalion was held up in an at
tack on Fouquescourt, which lies
within the old Somme defenses and
was strongly held up by an elaborate
trench system of machine guns and
wire.
Realizing that the capture of the
stronghold was essential to success of
the entire operation, the commanding
officer collected all the men available
and personally led a dashing assault
into the heart Of the enemy position.
A tank coming up, the officer led
this through the streets. His ex-
ample so inspired all ranks that their
advance was irresistible and after the
village had been mopped up the bat
talon consolidated a position to the
east and held it against all counter
attacks for two days.
A central Ontario battalion did
equally good work in front of Beau
court. The cavalry had been held up
here by converging machine-gun fire
from the south of the Roye road and
ILe WOOuS 10 IHe HOTCn ana east. l. he
battalion was similarly held up, but
it's commanding officer realized that
the key to the position was a small
wood to the northeast which was
alive with machine guns.
Taking advantage of the smoke
screen afforded by burning tank he
led in a hastily collected party and
rushed the wood, capturing 16 ma
chine guns. The battalion then took
the town with dash, the enemy re-
firing routed.
