"THE GREAT WAR AS I SAW IT By Canon F, G, Scott™C. M.G., of the First Canadian Division. D.8.0., of Quebec, Senior Chaplain 2 Second Battle of Ypres was aking of what grew to be the Canadian Crops. Up to that time, Canadians were looked upon; and looked upon themselves, merely as troops {that might be expected to hold the line and do useful spake work, but from then onward the men felt that they could rise to any em- ergency, and the army knew they could be depended upon, The pace | they set was followed by" the other divisions and, at the end, the Corps did not disappoint the expectations of General Foch. What higher praise could be desired? ~My billet in Viamertinghe was in a neat cottage owned by an old maid, who 'took great pride in making everything shine. The. paymaster of one of our battalions and I had a | cheerful home there when the poor {ol lady fled. Her home, however, did not long survive her absence, for, some days after she left, it was level- {led by a shells The church too was struck and ruined. Beside it is the military cemetery within which lie the mortal remains of many gallant men, amongst them the two Gren- fells, one of whom got the V.C. There I buried poor Duffy and many more. | The other chaplains laid to rest men { under their care, . One picture always comes to' my | ming when I think of Vlamertingne. In the road near the church was a Crucifix. The figure was life size and | hung on a cross planted upon a rocky mound, One night when the sun had | set and a great red glow burst along the horizon, I saw the large black | cross sithouetted against the crimson | man with grey hair Iie on be- | neath the kerchief that whs tied | about her head. It was dangerous | at all times to stay at that place, yet | she knelt there silently in prayer. | She seemed to be the embodiment of | the old life and quiet contented re- ligious hope which must have been | the spirit of Vlamertinghe in the | past' The village was an absolute ruin a few days later, and even the Sisters had to flee from their con- vent. The Crucifix, however, stood for a long time after the place was destroyed, but I never passed by without thinking of the poor old wo- man who knelt at its foot in the evening light and laid her burden of | cares upon the heart of Eternal Pity.

I would advise all weak and | nervous women to give this medicine {a trial." { You can get Dr. Williams' Pink | Pills through any dealer in medicine, or by mail, post paid, at 50 cents af | box or six boxes for $2.50 from The | | Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock- | ville, Ont. -- | | MARGOT A FIBBER. | | Lord Lee Defends the Women of fhe United States, 1 London, March 9.--Lord Lee, of Fareham, First Lord of the Admir- alty, addressing the English-s_ocak- | ing Union at its luncheon welcoming him home from the Washington Con- ference, said he had not planned to | mention pr ibition in the United States or the.
