Curiosity in regard to\nthem usually expresses itself in the\nquestion: \"What animal are they\nreally like?\" Candor compels on to\nreply that they are not like any animal, except so Cur as they are even\nless like anything else on earth, it\nyou must have sonic particular animal\nto compare them with, they perhaps\nresemble In general contour ji toad\nrather elongated towards Its hinder\nend.\nIn size the thing Is\u2014well,-large, Not\nto be too exact, It Is bigger than an\nordinary motor-car and smaller than\na laborer's cottage. In these circumstances II can hardly he expected to\nmove fast, and the dellborateness of\nits advance, coupled with the fact\nthat it Iiuh no visible wheels or legs,\ngives it a perfectly ridiculous solemnity.\nColor and Armament\n\"Tanks\" are painted In what natur-\nr\nStamped Linens\nTOWEL^, .APRONS, UNDERWEAR, D-OYLIES, CENTRES;\nRUNNERS, TABLE CLOTHS,\nETC., ETC.\nTHE LINEN IS OF A PINE\nQUALITY\nAND THE PATTERNS ARE\nOP A DAINTY ASSORTMENT\nTHE TIME TO BUY IS NOW\nAS THE TIME BEFORE\nCHRISTMAS IS LIMITED\nFurs\nTHE COLD WEATHER CALLS FOR FURS\nOUR STOCK OF MUFFS AND STOLES INCLUDE MINK, LYNX,\nWOLF, MINK MARMOT, nTCH, CIVET CAT,\nBELGIAN HARE, THIBET, ETC. *~\nThoy Are All Guaranteed and Most Attractively Priced\nHats\nDO .NOT OVERLOOK THE CLEARING SALE OF VELVET HATS\nALU AT rlALF PRICE\t\nWE MUST .MAKE ROOM FOR THE DISPLAY OF CHRISTMAS\nGOODS\u2014YOUR OPPORTUNITY '\nSmillie & Weir\nLADIES' WEAR SPECIALISTS '\nallsls call protective colors, the colors\nof snakes or lizards\u2014that Is, browns\nand greens and yellows, which harmonize admirably with the desolated\nenvironment In which the creatures\nmove. Perhaps this Coloration Increases the suggestion of a toad in\nthe thing's appearance; till one almost\nthinks that some huge und awful\nbatracbian may havo lived, if not In\nthe childhood of this earth, then in\nsome other world, a thing related to\nall other toads as Dlplodocus Is related to a small sand lizard. When\none sees ihe unspeakable things moving, with their great blunt noses\nthrust in tbe air before them, limbless and whcelless, going with a\nmovement as smooth us that of a\nsnake, but majestic and deliberate as\na giant tortoise, It is such a mixture\nof pantomime and pure horror as no\nnightmare ever equalled.\nThey are, as you know, armor-clad,\nhut the thickness of their armor I\nmust not tell, although tho Germuns\ndoubtless know it. l-'or their armament, it may vary as you please, but\nIs of the machine-gun typo; and tho\nguns, It is needless to say can fire in\nall directions. Bach carries its commanding officer and a crew of drivers\nand gunners; ami they have at least\nroom enough in their Interior to have\nbeen able on at least ono occasion,\nas you have been told, to bring home\nn Oerman battalion commander ns u\nprisoner inside. To thrust oneself,\ncooped up In the beast's steel interior\nInto the maze of the enemy's trenches\nand strong positions must be an exceedingly unpleasant job, but not a\nman, 1 believe, on any machine has\nyet behaved otherwise than splendidly.\nOffioial and Army Titles\nOfficially the new craft call themselves bis majesty's land ships t\"ll.\nAt.

No person overbearing an unguarded conversation about \"tankH\"\ncould possibly imagine that It. had reference to such a portentously Incredible thing as are these land-ships. And\nbesides \"tanks,\" the army call them\nby many names, uh \"Rhino\" and\n\"Willie\" and \"Crocodile\" and \"Humming Bird,\" and other names less\nprintable, while in certain select\ncircles the brute is known as the\n\"Hush-hush.\"\nEven atr a slow rate of speed a\ncreature of this size travels with considerable momentum; and neither the\nbrick wall of an* ordinary house nor a\ntree of moderate size, if Behemoth\ngels a fair push at It, is much of \u00bb\u00bb\nobstacle in his path. Lesser obstructions are only pleasing incidents in his\njouuney, which he climbs over, as a\nslug climbs over a pebble, or squashes\nby his weight and passes on.\nThe Vague Horror\nThe Germans, as It has been said,\nhave now had fair opportunities of\nseeing something of the animals.\nMore than one, as you know, has lain\ncrippled out between the lines, where\nthe enemy has been able on the one\nyide as we wero able on thc other to\ncreep up und examine it, always subject 'to the possibility of being shot,\nor bombed, in tho operation. No\n\"tank,\" however, has fallen into the\nenemy's hands. The Germans have\nbccn*V'able to reach tho beast and\nlondlo It, but they have not been able\nto persuade one to follow them home.\nMany thousands of German soldlors\nalso have seen the things coming into\nbattle, and they must have been a\nterrifying sight to those who saw\nthem first dimly outlined In the grey\nlight of dawn, spitting fire and death\nas they came. <>nc can pity oven\nGermans who only saw the vngue\nhorror moving against them and wero\nKilled by il before they knew What It\nwas that killed them.\nThe lime is doubtless not far away\nwhen pictures of \"tanks\" will bc familiar features of the illustrated papers\nand we shall have their portraits on\npost cards. Children will havo miniature \"tanks\" for toys, and street-sellers will make them waddle about the\nkerb. As yet, however, they aro half-\nmysteries.\nOf the value of the services which\nthey have rendered there can be nn\nquestion, or of lhe gallantry with\nWhich they have been handled.\nCHARLES BOOTH DIES.\n(By Dally News Leased Wire.)\nLONDON, Nov. 23.\u2014Charles Booth,\nchairman of the Booth Steamship company, died today.

C.\nOpinion Now Being Held Generally\nThat Prioes Do Not Depend on\nthe War.\nA French inquiry for 226,000,000\npounds of copper for delivery In the\nsecond half of next year, tho selling\nof spot electrolytic at a new high rec-\nord price, a tremendous demand for\ndomestic consumers, a serious shortage of copper for this delivery, a preB\nsure on producers to open their books\nfor last half business, have been the\ndevelopments in the copper market\nsince our last market report. Last\nweek it was stated that there wero\n\"rumors that anothor tremendous foreign purchase is Impending.\" Tho for.\neign inquiry was announced on Thursday. It was stated that \"domestic consumers are willing to place their second half requirements under contract.'\nDefinite acknowledgement of such Inquiries has since been made by leading producers, says the Mining World.\nBusiness Excited,\nBusiness in copper recently hns been\nexcited. Consumers who were In need\nof first quarter copper shopped around\nall the leading producers without filling their wants. Dealers who aro holding large blocks of metal available for\nnearby delivery are selling sparingly,\nwaiting for higher prices. Copper was\nsold at 32H cents for spot, 31 to Sl-j&c\nfor first quarter delivery and 30 to 30%\nfor second quarter delivery. Predictions that tho red metal will sell at\n40 cents a pound before the end of\nthe year are being heard. Tho extent\nof copper requirements of domestic\nconsumers for delivery in thc first\nquarter that must still ihe purchased\nappears to have been greatly underestimated. One important wire maker\nis now seeking 600,000 pounds per\nmonth for the first quarter. Several\nbrass makers are negotiating for 2,-\n000,000 to 3,000,000 pounds a month for\nthat delivery. There are even some\nmillion pound lots being sought for\nDecember delivery. Thc amount of\ncopper Inquired for In carload lots is\nnlso tremendous.\nDealers in Control.\nWith dealers controlling the entire\nsituation over the first quarter the\nfact that a premium market for copper has arrived cannot be disputed.\nThe inability to Increase production of\ncopper Is primarily the cause of the\ntight situation now prevailing. Consumers who felt secure in the belief\nthat tho output would run above 200,-\n000,000 pounds a month by the first of\nthe new year have since come to n\nrealization of the fact that consumption will bo greatly In excess of tho\noutput. Producers warned these consumers of their peril but they failed\nto heed the injunction. Price considerations are no longer the determining\nfactor as to whether a consumer will\nbuy copper.\nCourage of Sentiment.\nMelters, who are protected ovor the\nfirst half are clamoring for coverage\nover tho second half. There hns been\na remarkable change In sentiment\namong copper consumers. The opinion\nIs now more general that the future of\ncopper does not depend wholly on the\ncontinuance of tho wnr. With Europe\nbuying copper a year ahead oa orders\nthat cannot bo cancelled and willing to\npay the prevailing high prices, domestic consumers have found that the\nfears of a reaction lf the war should\nend, are baseless.\nProducers Conservative.\nProducers are today limiting even\ntransactions for the second half of\nnext year to regular customers. Buyers who havo mado a practise of shopping around are finding that their\n\"penny saved Is a penny earned\" policy is of no earthly advantage to them\nwhon the market turns from a buyers'\nto a producers' market. It has come\ndown to apportioning copper production. Output cannot bc increased sufficiently to take care of tho greatly\nenlarged world demand. Facilities\nmay bo created but labor cannot and\nthere Is theVub. Plants cannot be run\nforever without reairs and when parts\nfor renlrfs cannot be obtained plants\nclose. Thus notwithstanding tlio desires of producers to bring the output\nup to 225,000,000 pounds a month there\nare factors which prevent them from\nso doing.\nSTERLING EXCHANGE.\n(By Dally News Leased Wire.)\nNEW YORK, Nov. 23.\u2014Sterling exchange, 4.76 11-16 for demand.\nThe Consolidated Mining & Smelting Co.\nof Canada, Limited\nOffloes, Smelting ana Refining Department\nTRAIL, BR^ISH COLUMBIA\nSMELTERS AND REFINERS\nPurchasers of Gold, Silver, Copper and Lead Ores\nTRAIL BRAND Pit} LEAD, BLUBSTONB AND SPELTER\nSullivan Drills Are Better\nthan other drills beeau.e they drill falter and oo.t I... ta operate\nend keep up\nWRITS FOR BULLETINS M-H AND M-L\nAOENTSi\nTHE NELSON IRON WORKS, Limited\nKusa Spelter Company\nPurohwere of All Clanei of Zino Orel and Concentrate!\nNewton W.

Eric Townsend wrote to his\nparents ln London a letter which for\nIts pure .patriotism and literary and\nhuman qualities deserves to bo given a\npermanent place in the literature of this\nwar. The letter is printed In the London Dally Mnll ahd Is reproduced below: ,\nSept. S, 1916.\nDearest Mother and Father:\nYou are reading this letter because I have gone under.\nOf course I know you will be\nterribly cut up, and that it will be\na long time before you get over it,\nbut' get over it you must. You\nmust be' imbued with the spirit of\nthe navy and thc army to \"carry\non.\" - You will still have dear little\nDonald, who Is safo at any rate for -\nsome while. If he should over-\nhave to go on active service I\nsomehow feel that his invariable\ngood luck will bring him through.\nYou must console yourselves\nwith the thought that I am happy,\nwhorfiaB If I bad lived \u2014 who\nknows?\nRemember the saying attributed\nto Solon, \"Call no man happy till\nhe Is dead.\" Thanks to your self-\nsacrificing love and devotion I\nhave had a happy time all my life.\nDeath will have delivered me from\nexperiencing unhapplness.\nIt has always seemed to me a\nvery pitiful thing what little difference the disappearance of a\nman makes to any institution,\neven though he may have played\na very Important role. A moment's\nregret, a moment's pause for readjustment, and another man steps\nforward to enfry on, and the machine clanks onward wilh scarce a\ncheck. The death of a leader of\ntho nation is less even than a\nseven days' wonder. To a very\nsmall number It Is given to live in\nhistory; their number is scarcely\none in ten millions. To the rest\nit is only granted to live in their\nunited achievements. But for this\nwar I and all the others would\nhave passed Into oblivion like the\ncountless myriads before us. We\nshould have gone about our trifling\nbusiness, eating, drinking, sleeping,\nhoping, marrying, giving in marriage, and finally dying with no\nmore achieved than when wo were\nborfi, with the world no different\nfor our lives, Even the cattle in\nthe field fare no worse than this.\nThey, too, -eat, drink, sleep, bring\nforth young, and die leaving the\nworld no different from what they\nfound it.\nBut we shall live for ever in the\nresults of our efforts.\nWe shall live %s those who by\ntheir sacrifice won the Great War.\nOur spirits and our memories shall\nendure in the proud position Britain shall hdld in the future. Tho\nmeasure of life is not its span but\ntbe use made of It. I did not make\nmuch use of my life before the\nwar, but I think I have done so\nnow. v *\nOne sometimes hears people say,\nwhen a young man is killed, \"Poor\nfellow, cut off so early, without\never having had a chance of knowing and enjoying life.\" But for\nmyself, thanks to all that both of\nyou have done, I have crowded\ninto twenty years enough pleasure,\nsensations, and experiences for an\nordinnry lifetime. Never brilliant;\nsometimes almost a failure in anything I undertook; my sympathies\nand my Interests somehow or other\u2014why I cannot tell\u2014wero so\nwide that there was scarcely an\namusement; an occupation, a feeling which I could not appreciate.\nAnd as I have said, of most of\nthese T hnve tasted. T don't suppose I ever met anybody who was\nnot my superior in knowledge or\nachievement In one particular subject; but there his knowledge and\nhis interest ended, whereas my\ninterests comprised nearly the\nwhole field of human affairs and\nactivities. And that is why it is no\nhardship for me to leave the world\nso young.\nWell, I have talked a lot of rot\nwhich must have given you great\npain to read and which will not\nbring you much comfort. I had intended to try and say words of\ncomfort, but that scnicely being\npossible, It has drifted Into a sort\nof confession of faith.\nTo me has been given tho easier\ntask; to you Is given the more, difficult\u2014that of living in sorrow\/Be\nof good courngo that at the end\nyou may give a good account.\nKiss Donnld for me.\nAdieu, best of parents.\u2014Your\nloving son, ERIC.\nI THE WHINE OF THE BEAST I\nHumanity!

His alert mind\nquickly grasped the situation, and on\nhis return to l^ondon he initiated the\nprogram of manufacturing big guns of\nthe highest calibre. They have taken\na considerable time to turn out, although no time lias been lost; for In\nthe first place machinery for their\nmanufacture In this country did not\nexist.

J\n*>\u25a0\t\nFREYCINET.\nCharles Louis de Saulses de Freyoi-\nnet, who entered the French cabinet\nlast year as vice-president of the ministry and secretary of state, was born\nSS years ago, on Nov. 14, 1828, at Folx,\nin southern France. When the statesman of a future republic made his\nmundane debut France was under the\nHourbon heel, with Charles X. trying\nwith might and main to wipe out the\nmemories and results of that greatest\nof upheavals, the French revolution,\nand its aftermath, the omplre of the\nCorslcan, He failed, and when Freycl-\nnet was in his second year King\nCharles was deposed and Louis Philippe of the House of Orleans began\nhis reign. Freyclnet was 18, and a student at the Ecole Poly technique, when\nEgallte was forced to' abdicato his\nthrone, nnd tho second republic was\ninstituted, soon to be replaced by the\nsecond empire of Napoleon 111, During\nthat period Freyclnet was for a time a\nmining engineer in the government\nemploy, and later a builder of railways\nand the manager of the Southern railway of France, He was prominent in\nscientific circles and as early as 18R8\npublished a two-volume work on \"Rational Mathematics,\" and a littlo later\n\"A Study of Infinitesimal Analysis.\"\nIn tho latter years of the second omplre ho was employed principally ln\nstudying ways and means of safeguarding the lives and health of workmen in the principal industries, In the\ntroubled period of the Franco-Prussian\nwar he was the associate and aid of\nGamhotta, and he holped in tho establishment of tho third republic. Asmin-\nistor of public works in tho late \"70s he\ninitiated the French system of government-owned railways, and in 1879 he\nbecame premier of France. This was\nthe first of several times he held that\nhigh post, and at other times he was\nminister of foreign affairs and of war,\nhelping to effect the alliance between\nFrance and Russia.\nAlthough more than a century has\nelapsed since shrapnel was first used\nin warfare, this year marks tho\nseml-cent.iiry of its flrut use on a\ngreat scale as one of the most destructive and terrible of missiles.\nHenry Shrapnel, an officer of the\nBritish army, Invented shrapnel and\nIt has since boon given his name. It\nwas first used in war during the\nbombnrdment of tho Dutch settlement of Suflnan In lSf-4. Shnimiel\nwere effective in winning several victories for the Knglish in Spain during\nthe Napoleonic war, and shrapnel\nfire helped to rout the French at\nWaterloo. In the Crimean war shrapnel was used not nt all by the Knglish, and very little hy the French.\nThe civil war in America did not\ncreate any great demand for shrapnel shells, although the missile was\nused by both the Novlh nnd South\nto some extent. Up to this period\nshrapnel, while offeiitiv-J on several\noccasions, was not valued highly iiy\nmilitary experts. Tt was tho war between Prussia and Austria half a\ncentury ago that brought shrapnel\nInto Its own, The Prussians used\nlarge quantities of shrapnel In\nachieving their speedy victory over\nthe armies of Francis Joseph, and the\nordnance experts of Prussia thought\nso highly of It that immense quantities wero made and used during the\nFranco-Prussian war. Sedan was\nlargely a shrapnel victory, and everywhere the French were decimated\nby these terrlblo shells. Since then\nshrapnel has been one of the main\nreliances of the artillery of all armies.\nIts terrible destructlveness was\nmarked hy all the military observers\nat tho front during the Russo-Japanese war. French field pieces firing\nshrapnel were largely responsible for\nthe victories gained by the Balkan allies over tho Turks. In the present\nwar shrapnel shells have worked terrible execution, and tho missile invented by Henry Shrapnel, which was so\nlittle appreciated ln his lifetime, now\nperpetuates his name by piles of\ncorpses,\n:i\nSERVIA, UNCONQUERABLE,\nSorvia's army in its approach to\nMonastlr will carry tho hattlo to tho\ngates or the Bulgarian enemy.

Mr.\nHills asks, adding lf it did, we would\ngive It cheerfully. The evidence In\nfavor of the sacrifice Is formidable,\nbut Is It true? Tho ships we build\nhave been sold again at prices 50o to\n1000 per cent more than their cost of\nconstruction in 1914. It ls therefore\nquite clear that the shipowners are\nnot making any sacrifices. What next\nabout shipbuilding employers? They\nare crying out in the press about the\nhardships which are pressing on the\nshareholders. I would give them all\nthe ,\u00a3 GO pianos which they say we\nbuy if that would make them hdppy\nand content od in those hard times. I\nwould do all this on one condition,\nnamely, that they sive us the \"pittance\" which they now receive out of\nthe industry, and which causes them\nto feel so keenly tlie effects of the\nwnr.\nTako one shipbuilding company\u2014\nnot the most profitable ono. On a capital of \u00a3300.000 this company made a\nprofit in ono year of wnr of over\n\u00a3240,000. This is just about 70 per\ncent. It has been well said that \"Truth\nlies at tho bottom of a well,\" -and nil\naround that well we havo politicians,\nexploiters and shareholders warning\nus not to go near it or we shall surely\nhe drowned. I am sorry I cannot believe, as some people profess to do,\nthat we are all brothers now, duke's\nson and cook's sou, all suffering and\nworking together in industry as In\nwar. We gave up our right to strike,\nand in return we have boon maligned\nhy faked figures supplied to the press\nand to the government until even\nsome honest men look upon many of\nus as a lazy mob, reveling In high\nwages which we waste In useless\nluxuries.\nTho governmont committee on fool\nprices havo Issued their first report,\nthe committee has been true to the\ntraditions of royal commissions. They\nhavo sat a long while. Their duty was\n.to find us bread, and they offer us a\nstone. Their report is a confession of\nfear and failure to get to the root of\nthe problem, and the cheerful exploiter\nwill put another halfpenny on the loaf\nat once. On the milk question a candid farmer tells us that he could sell\nhis milk at Is. por gallon, and after\nmeeting all extra eosts for feeding\nstuffs, etc., ho would have a handsome\nprofit, but he says his trade union\nwill not allow him to sell it at less\nthan ls. 3d. por gallon wholesale.\nUNITED STATES SHIP\nBUILDING SHOWS ACTIVITY\nUnltod States shipping Interests\nwere unusually active in the construction of wood and metal vessels ln tho\nfirst ten months of 1910, according to\na report from the federal bureau of\nnavigation, department of commerce,\nshowing 90S sailing, steam, gas and\nunrigged vessels of 405.S9-1 gross tons\nbuilt in that country and officially\nnumbered by tho **;ovornment this\nyenr.

It bas, therefore, been ordered\nthat unskimmed milk is to bo distributed only to children under six years\nof nge, and to such people as can\nproduce a medical certificate showing their need of It. Among those\neligible for stub certificates are to oe\nthe poorer classes of tho population,\nwho nro to be supplied free of charge\nas far as possible. In distributing\nany quantities of unskimmed milk that\nmay still remain preference Is to bo\ngiven to children between tho ages\nof 7 and 14, but In their cnse thc\ncommunal authorities may reduce\ntheir fat ration to some extent ln\nexchange. The latter authorities are\nalso empowered to use any superfluous\nquantities of unskimmed milk for the\nmenls provided for school children.\nTheso regulations will henceforth\napply to town and will be carried\nout as fnr as possible In rurnl districts nlso, but the difficulty of regit\nlatlng consumption on the part of Ihe\nproducer Is obvious, and It Is recognized that tho matter will require\ntime and patience. The work will ho\nmainly Intrusted to the communal authorities, who are to endeavor to secure tho maximum delivery of milk\nfrom the farmers, who, on their pnrt.\naro hampered by tho shortage of\nhands, and the necessity of employing women unaccustomed to tho work.\nThoy are to bo encouraged, however,\nby means of a kind of premium sys\ntern, nccordlng to which producers\nWith a good record will be ablo to ob\nlain larger quantities of clover than\nthoso whose deliveries of milk fall\nbelow tho average.\nMeanwhile Btops have also been\ntaken to regulate the salo of cheese,\nwhich has latterly disappeared from\ntho open market altogether, a\nconsequence of the practise adopted\nby producers of sending cheeso\nto individual customers by post,\nand thus obtaining the retail price.\nThis proceeding is to bo prohibited for tho future, and at the\nsame time the price of various milk\ncheeses is to be raised to correspond\nwith the higher price of milk, so that\nfarmers will bo encouraged to man-\nufneturo such goods.\nTheso regulations, It Is stated, wore\nabsolutely necessary In order to secure\nat least a minimum of unnklmmcd\nmilk for Industrial districts during tho\nwinter.

According to the information\ngathered the shipments for last\nmonth as reported by the bureau are\n5,870,204 tons. In October 1915 the\nshipments were 6,663,007 tons. In\nSeptember 1916 the shipments are re\nported ns 5,544,706 tons.\nAttention is caltcd to the fact that\nshipments in Ootober 1916, were the\nmaximum for the region, tho nearest\napproach to that record having been\nmado in October, 1912, when 6,655,321\ntons were shipped.\nThe total shipments for tho ten\nmonths of 1916 ending with Nov. 1,\nwero 58,800,620 tons, a gain as compared with tho same period 1915 of\n560,373 tons. Part of the bureau's re\nport follows: \"ln comparing the total\nshipments from January to October in\n1916 with thoso for tho same period\nin 1915, consideration must be given\nto tho fact that, iu addition to thc Increase of 560,673 tons, tbe markets\nhave absorbed a large amount of coal\nthat was In storage at the beginning\nof the season. The shipments from\nstorage yards in October amounted to\napproximately 500,000 tons, which are\nnot Included In the railroad shipments\nreported for the month and reduce by\nthat amount the apparent shortage as\ncompared with October, 1915.\n\"The net decrease of 300,000 tons\ncould undoubtedly have been up if It\nwere not for the Interference with op\norations due to hutton strikes, nonleg\nal holidays, etc.\"\nBert Nnnceuiveii, farmer of Dere\nham township, lost his barn by fire\nwhich followed a mysterious explosion; loss $4000.\nTbe above represents the number of years spent in fruitless efforts to cure a bad case of eczema\nwith ordinnry ointments, compared with the time It took Zam-\nBuk to effect a complete and permanent cure.\nThis was thc experience of Mr.\nH. C. Buckley of 461 East Broadway. Portland, Ore. Writing to\nthe Zam-Buk Co., he says: \"For\nfifteen years 1 suffered with a bad\ncase of eczema.and used all kinds\nof so-called \"cures\" and treatments, but nothing was capable\nof curing me until 1 tried Zam-\nBuk. This wonderful balm, however, completely cured me In less\nthan a year, and not only so, but\nI have had no return of thc disease. I strongly recommend Zam-\nBuk. to anyone afflicted as I was.\"\nThis is but one of thc hundreds\nof cases where Zam-Buk has effected a cure when everything\nelse failed. The reason Is easily\nexplained. Zam-Buk being unusually refined\u2014containing absolutely so animal fats or mineral\ndrugs such as are contained in\nordinary ointments\u2014is capable of\npenetrating to the underlying\ntissues where skin diseases have\ntheir roots. Ordinary ointments,\non the contrary, never get beyond\nthe surface skin and so arc incap.\nable of effecting permanent cures.\nZam-Buk is just as good for\nsalt rheum, ringworm, boils, ulcers, abscesses, blood-poisoning,\npiles, cuts, burns, scalds and ill\nskin Injuries.

And nowhere more\nso than In titled families where the\n\"little stranger\" may be the eventual'\nbearer of an historic name and even\nsave the line from extinction.\nThe latest society woman to present\nher husband with a son and heir is'\nMrs. Charles Gerard, whose luiBband\nIs the eldest son of Hon. Robert J.\nGernrd-Dicconson, who, Jn turn, is\nheir-presumptive to Baron Gerard.\nPrevious to her marriage, Mrs. Gerard,\nwho is exceedingly pretty, was Miss\nAimee Clarke. She is the youngest\ndaughter of Sir Rupert Clarke and\nLady Philip Grey Egerton, her father\nbeing the second baronet of Ruperts\nwood, Victoria, Australia, anil her\nmother the daughter of a Tasmanlan\nmagnate. The present Lady Grey\nEgerton obtained a divorce and eventually married Sir Philip Grey Egerton, whose first marriage, meanwhile,\nhad also beea dissolved. This latter\nbaronet Is tbe twelfth of his line.\nAncestor Was a Martyr\nLord Gerard, to whose title and estates his pretty cousin's infant son has\nquite a fair chance of succeeding, Is\nexceedingly rich, and is head of one\nof the oldest nnd most Important of\nEnglish Roman Catholic families. At\n32, he is without a son, but has-two\ndaughters. Ills family history is one\nof the most picturesque ones tn British annals. The family line goes back\nbeyond the conquest to the time of\nEdward the Confessor, when Domlnus\nOtherus possessed several lordships In\nMiddlesex, Hunts, and Berks. Rather\nthan relinquish his Roman Catholic\nfaith, a member of the family suffered\nmartyrdom. This was Father Edmund\nArrowsmlth, whose mother was a\nGerard. Ho was charged'at the Lan\ncaster assizes in 1628, first with being a priest nnd a Jesuit, and secondly\nwith being a \"persuader\" in religion\u2014\ni. c, prevailing upon persons to abjure the Protestant and to espouse the\nRomnn Catholic faith. He was convicted and condemned to be drawn on\na hurdle to thc place of execution,\nthen to be hanged, drawn and quartered. A \"Rev. Mr. Leigh,\" who was\nto follow him on the scaffold, asked\nhtm to save his life by conforming to\ntho Protestant religion, but tho martyr replied, \"I will do It In no such\ncase and on no such conditions.\"\nleather Arrowsmlth desired his spiritual attendant to cut off his right hand,\nwhich should then have the power to\nwork miraculous cure on those who\nbad faith to believe in its efflcucy,\nTho hand of the martyr was cut off\nafter his death and transferred to\nAsh ton, and hundreds of people up to,\ncomparatively recent years visited thc\nplace to have it applied as a remedy\nfor their diseases. The Emperor\nNapoleon II, was once a guest at one\nof Lord Gerard's residences, Garswood,\nLancashire, and the rooms he occupied nre furnished in mahogany and\nupholstered in crimson. The King and\nQueen hnve also been to Garswood\nHail.

When the young viscount,\nwho is a. second lieutenant in the\nHampshire regiment, telegraphed his\nfather that ho had quietly married\nMiss George, of whose existence the\noar], had previously been unaware,\nLord Craven at once invited them to\nHome and stay at his town residence.\nLord Craven then wired the news in\na very laconic telegram to the bride's\nfather, who replied expressing his sur-\nprise, and nlso conveying his forgiveness, together with the usual wishes\ntor the future happiness of the young\ncouple. Lady Ufflngton hns now relumed to her parents, while her lord\nnnd master is back agnln \"somewhere\nin Prance.\"\nThe young couple had first met a\nfew weeks before at a ball at Strath-\nDefter, Lord Ufflngton Is heir not\nonly to the earldom of Craven, but also\nto the Bradley-Martin millions, estimated at at least 10 in dollars.

In pre-war days a member\nof tho Scots Guards, he was a lieutenant in t'he general reserve at the beginning of tho fighting, and is now in\nthe Welsh Guards. On coming Into\nthe title when he was only seven, he\ninherited a Welsh estate of something\nJlke 42,801) acres. The manor and seat\nof Crosswood, Aberystwyth, have heen\nln the possession of bis family since\n1200 which is, according to Burke, almost an unparalleled length of undisturbed possession. Never have tho\nseat and estate been alienated or, It\nis believed, ceased to be occupied by\nthe possessors. The family stands In\nthe front rank of ancient Cymric\nhouses, Its pedigree coming down by\nwell ascertained steps of descent from\n,the famous founder of tbe fifth noble\ntribe of Wales. He was Collwyn ap\nTangno, but whether, as ont! might\n\u25a0'fancy, he wns a devotee of the dance,\nIs not on record.

Marcosson\nwarns the readers of thc Saturday\nEvening Post that it ls a war in\nwhich the United States cannot remain\nneutral. It will be a war lor the trado\nof tho world, the great reconstruction\neffort of the belligerent nations to retrieve some of their glguntle. losses.\nAlready commercial treaties and arrangements have been made among\nthe entente allies which provide for thc\n\"most favored nation\" treatment\namong them; and thc central powers\narc supposed lo have a similar understanding among themselves. After tho\nwar is over tho trade war will begin.\nit will not be necessary for one group\nof former belligerents lo specltically\nmake tariffs against thc other ur Impose restrictions. Hy giving themselves favorable treatment they automatically discriminate against thoso\nnot on this footing. Nobody, will suppose for instance, that when this war\nis over the Uniled States will enjoy\nthe same standing in thc British and\nFrench markets as Canada and Australia, Therefore the United States\nbecomes involved In thc war after tho\nwar.\nThe American Position.\nSimilarly it is unlikely that thc\nmanufacturer of American goods will\nbe permitted lo compete on oven\nterms with the German manufacturer\nIn Austria, for example, unless lhe\npresent war should bc followed by a\nrevolution that will disrupt tho present\nrelations between the Central powers.\nThe United States therefore, Is likely\nto find Itself discriminated against by\nboth groups of belligerents, uf course,\nthe United States cun retaliate by\ntariffs that will keep non-American\ngoods out of the country, but this will\nnot solve the problem of her foreign\ntrade, which is absolutely necessary if\nshe Is to malntuln her present position\namong the great commercial nations\nof the world. She Is likely to find, too,\nthat the war has unfitted her to become tho keen competitor of Europe.\nTho war demands for American commodities, suys Mr. Marcosson, paid for\nwith gold, have raised the cost of\nproduction and it will stay up.\nBritain in Training.\nOn the other hand, the experience\nof thc war has put Britain In training\nfor the ( war after the war. Tho\n\"speeding up\" method has been accepted) The unions have abandoned\ntheir restriction upon output and they\nare likely to find that this is an advantage to them and not tbe peril\nthey supposed it. Women havo become skilled workers to the number\nof hundreds of thousands. They are\nnol going to be turned put of their\nJobs after the war.
