4 4 â- a V -3' 1 A DOCTOR'S PRAISE A Noted Doctor Strongly En- dorses Dr. wmiams' Pink Pins. The test of any remedy Ues In lt« acceptance and employment by the qualified medical practitioner. No leal an authority than Dr. Andrea Amlci, physician to the Papal house- hold, writing on the subject of anae- mia, impoverishment of the nerrous system and disorders attributable thereto, strongly endorses Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills, recommending them as superior to other tonics. Dr. Amlci's testimony reads as fol- lows: â€" "For several years I have made use of I?r. Williams' Pink Pills in my work and I have always found them efficacious in the treatment of disorders due to Inmovcrishment of the nervous system, anaemia and neurasthenia, stomach weaKhess, re- tarded development In young women, and Irregularities. There is Is no lack of tonic remedies, but in my experi- ence no one of Uieni manifests a su- perior etScacy to that of Dr. Williams* Pink Pills. " No more conclusive evidence of the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills could be asked for or given, than is found In the above endorsement of this noted European physician. Besides this, however, this medicina has en- Joyed a world-wide public confidence for mere than a third of a century and has brought relief to thousands and thousands of weak and suffering people. Ti-y Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for anaemia, rheumatism, neuralgia, ner- Tousnei-'s and stomach trouble. Take them as a tonic if you are not in the best physical condition and cultivate a resistance Uiat will keep you well and strong. You can get these pills through any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. FRANCE BU BLDS NEW DEFENSES Army Engineers Strengthen Forts.

BY FERDINAND TUOHY. For the nest three years General Guillaamat. who may on« day Im elasoified beside Vauban and Brial- nwnt OS the military- architect of a new form of fortifications, will super- intend the construction and or^niza- tion in France and Belg^iom of the most revolutionary national defences to be evolved since the Napoleonic Wars. Not only vrill all the teachings of the World War be incorporated in the new fortifications, but a radically different central idea will be pursued as well. It is no secret that the Fortifica- tions Oomnussion of the French army was not in any hurry to go to work, even thoagfa more than eight years had elapsed since the Armistice. Feeling that a fresh war was unlikely to occur before 1935 at the earliest (Marshal Foch has just given it as his opinion that the next upheaval may not develop for "fifteen or twenty years"), the commission wished to leave matters in suspense until the last possible moment, principally in view of the ever-changing equation ot air power, but also with an eye to fairly certain modifications in so- called "mechanized warfare." France would continue to have the Rhine as a frontier till 1935, it was arg^ued, so the di>jiger of invasion would be correspondingly small. Meanwhile, more and more lessons would be assimilated, so that when the new defences were eventually built they might represent the last word in military effectiveness. ISSUE DEEMED PRESSING. However, in the early summer of this year it was felt that an expidited trader all conditions â€" a matter to which Marshal Foch attributes the highest importance. In the former Generalissimo's view, concentrations in the next war will not be so great aa they were in the last (such as his 400,000 men hidden in Compiegne Forest) , but will be executed with far greater rapidity (like Manoury's taxi- cab rash to the Ourcq). In the same way a big hole is beim? torn in the fortifications budget by the harnessing of water power and by Uying down many new telesfraphic and telephonic circuits deep in the soil from pivotal point to pivotal point. Underground roads are even being tunneled in places so that a given vital region may be held with * minimum of casualties, while a fur- ther feature has to do with the crea- tion of subterranean aircraft depots, gun parks -and tank dromes, all well «*n»wiflaged. One section of the plan involves the establishment of little short of mammoth hidden arsenals and war material dumps, in which will be found everything necessary to defend the surrounding country in an emergency â€" from wire cutters to machine guns and land mines. STRATEGIC POINTS. To revert to the wider plan, the more vital railroad jtmctions, such as Charleville and Chalons, are being specially protected and duplicated, while great care is being bestowed upon the entrenched camp of Paris, particularly with regard to protection from chemical gases. Also, the time- honored channels of invasion down the Meuse and through Lorraine are be- ig intricately attended to â€" in the lat- ter case by the "turning" of the ira- ; mense former German defence* around Shaw Writing CromweO Drama' Will Not "Speak Badly of.

The greatest secrecy is being main- tained regarding the nature of the new fortifications and many spies have already been arrested; but in broad outline it may be explained that thev are a mixture of the old forts, immensely strengthened, and of natural bulwarks of the region, organized in a manner similar to that in which celebrated battle ridges and hills were fitted out, painfully and tragically during the war. To name three as an illustration: Souchez, opposite Lens; Moron villers, in Champagne; and the Hartraanns- weilerkopf, in Alsace. The idea is to turn to account every ounce of the natural bastions which came into be- ing, naturally, during the conflict. If or when fortresses are captured, these tried and trusty militarized zones will be there to fall back upon. But there is far more in the plan than that A large part of the seven niillards of francs, which the complete proposition will cost, is to bo devoted to the construction of a positive net- work of railroads, light and heavy, and of strategic roads, criss-crossing from zone to zone and linking up the whole sy&tera in order that rapid con- centrations of troops may be effected ^44€€g9a9u£Bakmff^ It depends largely on the flour yon use.

This redistribution is speci- fically designed to coincide with the new national defenctr. Heretofore the standing and conscript army cf peace, numbering some 800,000 men. has been divided into cunibersome army corps areas, with a drafted service of eighteen months. Under the new law reducing conscript service to one year France is redistributed into twenty territorial divisions, each highly mobile and self-contair.ed for all arm3 and aircraft, and whose cadres have been entirely recast This is the Metropolitan Army (actually the corps appellations will be retained for it) and it will be re- enforced upon mobilization by a fur- ther twenty di\-isions of first-line troops, instantly raised. These forty "supermechanized" and mobile di\i- sions, armed to the teeth, will with- stand the first shock of invasion, se- curely reposing on their newly con- structed war-zone arsenals and forti- fied regions, while the rest of the na- tion will be drafted under the Paul Boncour Service-for-All act. â€" New York Times. â- igt trai part of British Columbia by way | of Kicking Horse pass.
