Wynne, of 102 Marqueretta street, Toronto the other day. Mr. Wynne is an old army man, having served with the British forces in India, Egypt, Africa and other forelgn countries, and has lived in Toronto for the past ten years. "Up to two years ago," tinued, "I had always enjoyed good health, then my stomach went back on me and I had trouble ever since till I began taking Tanlac. I lost my appetite and got £0 that I wak actu- ally afraid to eat, for I knew it meant hours of misery afterwards. Al- though I confined myself to the light- ost diet and would take only a bite or two.at the table, the little { did man- agd to force down 'would ferment and fill me up with gas till I felt as tight as a drum of lead in me and 1 would suffer agonies all through my stomach and side. Gas would press up around my heart and rise up in my chest till I felt like I would choke, 1 was so weak and rundown that it was all I could do;to drag myself off to my work and many a time after start- ing off I felt like turning round and going back home. I was in this aw- ful condition for two long years, suf- fering untold misery all the time. 1 wouldn't take anything, for I had no over to Jacobson, who in turn gave them to von Papen. After von Pa- pen's departure another agent is said| to have called for the plans and speci- fications at.

Hogan His Pastorate on Sunday--- Preached Fine Discourses, Rev. J. 8. La Flair commenced his pastorate at the First Baptist church on Sunday, preaching at the union services of the First Baptist and First Congregational churches. The morning service was held in the First Baptist church, and the evening ser- in the First Congregational church, Rev, Mr. La Flair is a most im- pressive speaker, and delivered two strong discourses. At the morning service he spoke on the subject, "Our Greatest Ally," and chose as his text, John xv., 5: "I am the vine, ye are the branches. He that abideth in me and I in him, the.same bringeth forth much fruit; for without me, ye can do nothing." The speaker referred to the fourth anniversary of the war, and asked the question, "What will the outcbme of the war be?" It will be this, that the nation that abides in Christ, and the people who honor Him, shall bear fruit. Out of the war would come better-fruit, if we would but abide in Him. If we did not abide in Him, we did not deserve a victory, "Our greatest Ally is not Belgium, France or the United States," said the speaker, 'but our greatest ally in these days of war- fare, and our greatest ally in the ef- forts to spread good tidings is Jesus Christ," If Germany and Britain were both Christian, hew could there be a con- flict between them? Very often the cause of the war was asked for. The cause rested in Germany's religion, or lack of religion, in her interpreta- tion of the word of God. Might did not make right, and not until this was understood would peace come. The question was often raised ag to how Christians could engage in such a conflict, We were not on the of- fensive, but taking up the defence, for freedom and justice. And right at honie we had a lesson to learn, and that was that we should not be looking for the weakness and mistakes in people. On the other hand we should 'be emphasizing the good that we ean find in them. In every person there was good, if we brave | but looked for it. BYE-ELECTIONS COMING SOON.

'With the American Army, Aug. 5. --Prisoners state they are being told they are fighting a rear-guard action but must hold the lines. Many of them say they have come down from Flanders, particularly Kemmel Hill, and others fought in Rumania.
