BUGLER WILLIAMS COURAGE O} THI O' ” BRIGADI I PRESENTATIVE AT THE FRONT. ‘The members of the Toronto Bat talion of the Boys’ Brigade are greatly | elated over the news that it was their comrade ‘Dug’ Williams who sounded the charge preceding the surrender of | General Cronje. In a modest but in

tensely interesting letter to his parents describes his feeling when called upon to sot the charge. A re collection of his iather’s admonitions to be true to his duty came to him, and inspired him to mount an ant hill in the face of the Boer bullets so that the sound would be more widely and clearly heard. He sends a special message to his mother, to assure her that he is ‘all right,’ and his comrades of the Queen’s Own Bugle Band, and of the Boys’ Brigade, echo the declara- tion. ‘The intrepid lad was the winner of the bugle prize at the Boys’ Brigade camp, at Oshawa, an account of which interesting assemblage was published in the Witness at the time. The officers of the Boys’ Brigade are not a little proud that their bugler should

A PRETTY STORY.

The Argus, Cape Town, Cape Col- ony, has the following:

A delightful story (says the Fort Beaufort Advocate) comes to us from Seymour. Mr. Smit, of that place, has two sons serving with ous forces as One is in the fighting ranks at Modder River, the other is on the lines of communication. A third son had been domiciled in Bloemfon- tein, and when last heard of was still there. And now comesthe story! A sixth and youngest son, whose name (let it be recorded in full) is Douglas Laing Smit, has reached the martial age of fourteen years, and three weeks ago besought his father and mother to let him go to the front and help to ex- pel the lawless invaders ot his country. The parents, not unaturally, were un- able to comply, and a further appeal had no better success. The incident became a thing of the past, until a few days ago, when Mr. Smit received among his letters one which he thought was meant for one of his absent boys, and he opened it to see. To his surprise it was a letter signed by Lord Roberts and addressed to our friend Douglas. On his father inqu'r- ing whether he and Lord Roberts were regular correspondents, the boy nervously admitted that after the par- ental wet blanket had been put on his warrior instincts, he wrote to the Field

Marshal, and said, “I want to go and fight; 1 am fourteen years of age. My

father won’i let me. Please write and use your influence with them to let me go.” The sublime artlessness of this appeal is just perfect, and the answer is a fitting sequel, for Lord Roberts did not delegate the duty of replying to any subordinate, but he himself sent the response, which is as follows:

The Danger of

Too frequently overlooked, Dr. Chase’s Ointment a

The suffering caused by the intense itching and burning sensations of piles is only one ot the horrors of this disease, for there is always great danger cf piles developing into fistula, one of the most disgusting diseases iniaginable. Even the great danger and expense cf an operation are preferable to running the risk of contracting this most loathsome of diseases.

But there is no necessity for a surgical opera- tion for piles. Dr, Chase's Ointinent is guaranteed to cure any case of piles, no matter of how long standing, or how aggravated the case may be, so jong as piles have not become fistula,

It is only by rare chance that internal treat- ment will cure piles. But it matters not from what cause they arise, Dr. Chase’s Ointment will at once stop the itching and burning, and soun effect a perfect cure,

You can use Dr. Chase’s Ointment with fullest assurance that what has cured scores of thousands of cases of piles will cure you. For sale by all dealers, or Rdmanson, Baws & Co Toroata.
