'the Boer has never shown a
(Julian Ralph (American), in London |
Daily Mail.)
I have not known precisely how to rate British valor.
I have seen that it is the first of its
kind. I have many opportunities to judge it. It has shown itself in ever) engagement we have had with the
Boers, sometimes too brilliantly to be entrusted to English for description, often successfully, always tellingly.
But what does it make or how does it count in war? Remember that that quality, and yet he has made many a good battle, and we account him a good fighting man.
If we analyze the fighiing qualities of the Briton and we find that the Briton is always ready to rush upon death, while the Boer as religious- ly avoids risking his life more than the greatest caution leaves necessary. Shall we then, say that valor is accom- panied by the unnecessary slaughter of those who possess it? It has eften seemed Grant this, admit that many an Englishman now lying under the surface of the veldt would have ivea to fight another day’had he been less brave, what isthere left to say for valor—pure, unreasoning, dash- ing valor?
ONE OF THE ELEMENTS,
I know that the men who possess it will read this with impatience. They do notadmit that the value of this quality is discussable. They belong to a race which has always enjoyed and valued it, and they despise those who boast of it—for they are so certain of it among themselves that they never allude to it except in praise of an en- emy. But we must speak of it in dis- cussing this war because it has been one of the two most important ele- ments, in the earlier part of the conflict on the British side. Those two were the bad generalship of incompetent commanders and the extraordinary courage by which their men have either veiled or glossed their generals’ mis- takes.
We must discuss it as we discuss the consequences of equipping an army with long-range magazine rifles, or with lyddite shells; or with smoke- less powder. The proper rating of valor in battle is surely as well. worth looking into as the worth of these other equipments. I have suggested that the Briton regards valor as a regulation accompaniment, like his body or his weapons. I think I cansay how the Boer, who has never knowr the feel- ing of it, found himself regarding the quality after five months ot fighting.
THE BOER IS A HUNTER.
He is a hunter rather than a warrior. His game is to lie in hiding and kill whatever comes in front of him—and torun the moment his own skin is threatened.
At Belmont and Grasjanhe dis- covered that whereas deer either die or run away the British ran at him. Therefore te ceased to hide behind rocks and took to a campaign of sur- prises, traps and ambushes, He dug trenches below the surface and hid in the grass, concentrating such numbers that either the first volley or his con- tinuous volleys would hold back even the extabrdinary valor which disre- garded the death of many so long as life maintained itself in a few. At Belmont and Graspan he was surpris- ed aud jolted out of his lairs by this valor, but, with his accustomed fox, like cunning, he thereafter counted upon this quality in his foes, and made it serve his deadly purpose by leading his victims into his pitfalls.
I saw this long ago, and it was when I first saw it that I began to ask my- self in cold blood, what is its value in war? We are not speaking of plain courage—but of this extraordinary kind or degree that our troops dis- play. Of course, one cannot do with- out courage—at least, only the Boer can, and he can do so only because he inhabits a country made to suit him —or which has made him to suit it; a country in which there is a natural fortress for every square mile. The German has a reliable, staying, dogged courage. The Frenchman has a brilliaut courage at the call of a leader he trusts. The Turk was my idea of a soldier up to last year because he unites with the German sort of courage a belief that to be killed in battle is to earn a harem in heaven and a seat in a first-class carriage on the way. Com- pare any of these fashions in courage with the utter absence of it in the Greek, and we see by the record of the Turko-Greek contzst that courage is an essentia] in war.
SPLENDID, BUT COSTLY,
But British valor is a different thing. It often means a rushing inte,and a defiance ef, certain death. It recks nothing, avoids nothing, considers nothing! It imbues an entire regi-

Ecezmain Its Worst Form.
Back Covered With Blisters — Terrible itching — No Sieep Possible — Dr. Chase's Ointment Simply Marvellous in Its Curative Powers.
Mr. John Kelly, 79 Trinity street, To- ronto, in an interview, made the fol- lowing verbatim statement:—
“TI have been troubled with eczema in almost its worst form fer the past three years. At times my back and shoulder blades were literally covered with patches like water blisters, and these, accompanied with terrible itch- ing on my legs, put sleep out of the question. I tried various well-known ointments (names mentioned), and did everything possible to obtain relief, but
with litle success. I had frequently heard of Dr. Chase’s Ointment, but meeting with so many disappointments, I had not tried it. Seeing the advertise- ment one day I concluded to get a box, Since using Dr. Chase’s Ointment, I am like a new being. Its soothing and healing properties are simply marvel- lous, and I am honestly grateful te Dr. Chase’s Ointment for the release from long suffering.’
