They are guaranteed by a government ana- lyst to be absolutely safe and never tail to cure constipation, colic, folds and simple fevers by regulat- ing the bowels. Concerning them Sirs. S.

Some factories are working short time, bat very few have closed down. There is a good deal of unemployment, but not a larger percentage of it than has been known, ere now, in time of peace so far, at any rate, it is well within control, particularly in view of the very remarkable expedition with which relief arrangements have been made. Those who make and sell luxuries have, perhaps, most reason to fear a slack time. But, on the -other hand, the war itself ac- tually stimulates production in many directions. And dockyards, arsenals, and armament factories will all be responsible for a vastly increased demand for labor.

Among many admirable qualities that the British people are exhibit- ing just now, not the least admira ble is the cool way in which they are adapting themselves to abnor- mal commercial conditions. Cour- age and swiftness of action on the part of those in authority, combined with common-sense and coolness on j the part of the main body of the | general public, are enabling them j to make the best of wholly unprece- 1 dented economic conditions. -And. (as so often happens) they are find- ing the reality of every-day com- mercial life in war-time far less ter- rible than they would have expect- ed before they tasted it. In days not long gone by, whenever the mere possibility of a vast European war, with Great Britain for a par- ticipant in it, was contemplated, there were not wanting prophets and many of them not ill-informed people, either who forecasted that, if Great Britain were not brought within a few weeks to the brink of starvation, her currency system would collapse, her sea-borne trade would do ditto, and her Industrie* would stop almost of themselves. In the result, wich forebodings have been proved unjustified. The reality may turn out to be strin- gent and stern enough, but it is not nor does it seem likely to be a hundredth part as appalling as the state of terror which the imagina- tion conjured up. The nation know* that it has to fight economic dim oulties of substance. But, at least, it has shaken itself free from the fear of shadows. First of all. Great Britain know? that she need no longer dread any grave shortage in her food supply. Secondly, she need fear no currency crisis. Thirdly, she has her trade routes open. The Atlantic and the Mediterranean alike are, for practi cal purposes, safe for her shipping. With the great water-ways of t!u- world clear for their transport, she can both get her raw material from every country, save those with whom she is at war. or those so actually affected by the war that they can provide none, and she can send her manufactures into every country save those in which the war has wiped out her market. Her European market has, of course, been seriously diminished. But even that diminution is a matter of far less concern to her to-day than it would have been a score of years ago . For to-day her markets in the United States, in the East, and in the Britih Dominions overseas, have attained an increased and ever-increasing importance. And in such markets s>he finds herself, in this time of war. practically without any European competitor at all. At home.

Puts Fini-^hiii;: Tuueh to Cavalry and Artillery Action. SENSATIONS OF SOLDIEH. Fear is Strongest on tbe Eve of a Buttle. Some psychological studies as to the sensations of the soldier who faces a shower of 'bullets, which were written by Col. Margiarotti of the Italian army, are published as timely ia Bohemia, a newspaper in Prague. The question as to how a soldier feels at the height of battle was put to about 2.000 men who had seen service in Tripoli. Almost to a man they agreed that the sensa- tion experienced in battle itself was not as strung as the fear befor the battle. The most excitable mo- ment was that in which the first shots were fired. The worst experience of most of the soldiers was having to stand still in line of battle ; it was the greatest relief imagiua.b'.e to be ordered to run forward. Some said their sensations in battle included trembling, tears, hair standing ...;i end, hoarseness, and even yawn- ing. All of the replies indicated that the soldiers were largely influenced by the conduct of their immediat^ superiors. Asked whether it was patriotism, oath of fidelity, or the thoughts of penalties to which they were liable that led men forward to their duty, almost all of the men replied: "I went forward because my lieutenant went forward.'' The officers above lieutenants were rarely mentioned, for the men did not come much in contact with them. It has been claimed by many his- torians that such valiant soldiers as Henry IV. and Frederick the Great were trembling during battles. Delicately flavoured Highly concen- trated. WHY WORRY !
