have more adventures than any other
family in the peerage. W'hen the Mah-
dists overrun the Soudan the present
Lord Dundonald (then called Lord Coch-
rane, his futher being alive) was serving
in Egypt. He was in the square at
Abouklea when t-he Fuzzy Vv'uzzies broke
it, and was within a few yards of Fred
Burnaby when that gallant officer and
Wu-» gorrespondent was killed. »Soon
after this the commanding officer called
for fi volunteer to carry a message to Sir
Redvers Buller, who commanded the
new-gs; British forces. Some one was
needed who could steer by the stars
across long miles of desert to guide the
Pa,-gy which was taking the wounded to
the wells, and then to ride on and take
the news to General Buller. The only
mm who had the requisite astronomical
knowledge tmned out to be LordCo¢hrane
in the Life Guards, al:out22 years old.
His offer was excepted. He guided the
wounded safely to the wells, and then,
leaving them there. rode on alone through
the desert, in danger every moment of le-
ing cut off by" prowling detaclrments ofthe
mem,-, It was day-break when he reach-
ed Sir Redvers Bullet, whom he found
camped under a palm tree with no tent
and only a single blanket. He was so ex-
hausted with fatigue and cold that it was
not until he had a pull at Sir Redver`s
whisky flask that he was ab‘e to deliver
his message. His message was that Khar-
umm had fa‘len and General Gordon was ,
dead.

concerned inthe plot toblow up Charles II.

‘ Heart DiS¢3S€.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid In-
crease of Heart Trouble.
Hart trouble, at least among the Ameri-
cana, ‘B certainly increasing and while this
iq he largely due to the excitement and
wary of American business life, it is more
dmthe result of weak stomachs, of poor
dkestion. `
Bealorganic disease is incurable; but not
one casein a hundred of heart trouble is
organic.
The close relation between heart trouble
and poor digestion is because both organs
areeontrolled by the same great nerves, the
Sympathetic and the Pneumogastric.
In another way also the heart is affected
bythe form of poor digestion, which causes
gzsand fermentation from half digested
food. There is a feeling of oppression and
heaviness in the chest caused by pressure
of the distended stomach on the heart and
lungs, interfering with their action; hence
arises palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
making it thin and watery, which irritates
and weakens the heart. `
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble is to improve the digestion and to
insure the prompt assimilation of food.
This can be done by the regular use after
meals of some safe, pleasant and effective
digestive preparation, like Stuart’s
Dyspepsis Tablets, which may be found at
drug stores, and which contain valuable,
harmless digestive elements in a. pleasant,
convenient form.
Itis safe to say that the regular, persist-
ent use of Stuart`s Dyspepsia Tablets at
meal time will cure any form of stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.

de-camp to Lord Cornwallis, and was
killed at Yorktown. This uncle‘s wife
was a daughter ef that Major Pattairn
who rode into the village green at Lox-
ington and commanded. “Lay down your
arms, you rebels; lay down your arms
and disperse !" He then fired his pistol
and began to Revolutionary War.
The present Lord‘s grandfather, who
did most of his fighting under the name
of Cochrane, had the most varied
and adventurous career of the lot. He
was a born soldier of fortune and in Peru
and Chili are statuts erected to “El
Almirante Cochrane," while Chile always
hasaman-of-war bearing his name. He
was a sea terror and all the South
Atlantic sides, remembers his name and
daring deeds. As a. young man and an
oflicer in the British navy he ,began his
career by fighting against the French and
armed vessel carrying a crew of only
fifty-four men, he tackled the Spanish
frigate El Gamo, carrying a. crew of 319
men, and captured her. Later, with a
larger command, he sailed into t-heBasque
Roads, where the French Beet was at an-
c'ior, and destroyed four of the enemy’s
sfiips. He was a member of the House §of
Commons and a national hero. Then one
day he was accused of having spread a.
f .lse report of Napolcon’s death for stock-
_iobbing purposes, was tried, convicted,
expelled from the House and the navy
and fined and imprisoned for a. year.
\Vhen he got out ofjail he went to South
America and entered the service of Chili,
ized the Chilian navy, and with only one
frigate and a few old vessels managed to
neutralise a powerful Spanish squadron.
He stormed and took Vladivia in 1820 and
transported an insurgent army to Peru to
fight the Spanish there. He blockaded
Callao, t-hen held by the Spanish, and cut
out the Spanish frigate Esmeralda from
under the guns of the forts.

, London is to have so new khaki-clad mil-
itary corps, a purely volunteer organiza-
tion the rank and file of which is to be
drawn from the best young blood in the
city. The corps is to consist of a battal-
ion of eight companies, each company to
be 73fstrong, including all ranks, and it
will be known as ‘London’s Own.” The
father of the idea is Sergt-Major Munro, t
of No I Co., R. C. R. I.,at Wolseley Bar- .
racks, who ls, by the way, one of the
imost capable drill instructors and one of
the best all round soldiers '_ in Her Ma-
jesty’s Canadian service. _When _ the en-
thusiasm was kindled by the conspicuous
_ gallantry of London boys in South Africa,
' the idea of forming a battalion of youths
under the military age,as laid down in the
Militia Act,of Canada,occurred to Sgt-Ma»_
jor Munro; He has now all but completed
arrangements to put the idea into
execution.
The battalion is to consist, as before
said, of eight companies, of 73 men each,
including one captain, two subalterns,-one
color-sergeant, three sérgeants, four cor-
porals, two buglers, and 60 men. The
battalion staff will, of course, be over and
above his strength.
Candidates for enlistment must be 14
years of age or over, and under 18 years;
they must be at least five feet __ in height
and must have a chest measurement of
not less than 30§inches; and no candidate
who is not physically sound and well-
,formed will be accepted. The utmost
boys who will form thetbattalion. Every
candidate must bring to the recruiting
officer at Wolseley Barracks a signed re-
commendation asto' character from some
reputable citizen and also the consent of
two classes-A. and B-each member of
the classes being numbered. The words
selected were those in common use. They
were spelled out by the umpire and mem-
bers of the class in turn attempted their
pronounciation. A record was "kept
by the captains, of the number who pro-
nounced them correctly, as well as of
those who did not. At the close there
was a summing up and a prize awarded
to the one who pronounced the most
words correctly and another to the one
that-had the fewest words rightly pro-
nounced. It was a surprise to many in
the classes to Rnd that of the words used
in common conversation so many were
not pronounced according to the stand-
ards. It was a useful exercise, an even-
ing well and profitably spent',» and--we
have no doubt that many of the members
_ of the society will make an effortin future
_to be more correct in their pronunciation.
r It was pleasing to note the 
_with which the elderly members and the
school children alike engaged in the con-
test but it caused comment that the two
school teachers present did not enter the
lists when invited to take their chances
with old farmers and school children,
choosingrathertotake a back seat and
criticise what they could not better. They
evidently' thought prudence the better
lments in Africa. The uniform will con-
The battalion will be uniformed as near-
. ly as possible like Ca.nada.'s fighting regi-
§ sist of khaki jacket and trousers, service
1 pattcrnfkhaki service cap, spots and put-
) tees, and canvas bandolier, waist and
t cross belt. The regimental cap and waist
belt badge or ornament will be the c_ity’s
coatcf arms. _
The battalion will be armed with either-
the short Snider rifle, with modified bay-
onet, or the Martini Metford.
t Sergt.-Major Munro has evolved a new
and modified drill for the new regiment
which will prove far superior to the pre-
sent complicated drill of the British ser-
_ vice. _
i ‘l,ond0n’s Own’ will be made the smart-
est  the kind in Canada.; indeed
thereis no other organization like it in
the country, and the benent to be derived
by the youth of the city from the training
and discipline will be inestlmahle. The
corps will be entirely independent of the
Militia Act, and discipline will be en-
forced lmpartially under the following
__ rules:
` 1. Signers of the Service Roll of - the
corps entitled‘Loudon’s0wn’agreeto serve
in the said corps fora term of three years
