Mr. Macrum, the American consul at Pretoria, reports to Mr. Stowe, the American consul general at Cape Town, that the British prisoners are well and that they are excellently fed, The descriptions of the battle of Glencoe, which are now arriving by: mail from the war correspondents, show .that it was indeed like Majuba reversed, with the attack and victory on the side of the British. Glencoe and Elandslaagte were dearly bought victories, but they will show the Boers and the world that British in fantry has abated not a whit of its fight- ing zeal, The London Telegraph’s Cape Town correspondent says that refugees state that the Boer losses at Elandslaagte were mainly Germans, Hollanders and Irish, whom the Boers despise. They were posted prominently in front. The correspondent adds that he hears that Cecil Rhodes, who is in Kimberley, keeps a big balloon ready in which he can escape in the event of an extrem- ty ; it ye The Standard and Diggers’ News states that some cases of scurvy have broken out among the prisoners at Pretoria. ‘They are being moved to the Waterfall farm. They have asked the government notto give them the tinned food taken from Dundee, which is only fit for cattle. The same news- paper says the troops at Ladysmith are SuicrstTar ill with typhoid, The stench from the city is awful Germany is undoubtedly sympathe- tic with Britain in this war. It seems to have been assumed that racial con- siderations ought to incline the Ger- mans to sympathise with the Boers. 3ut the Boers have nothing in common with the Germans, and they are ab- solutely distinct from and different to the Dutch in Europe and the Dutch in America. They are a mixed race, with none of the broad instincts of the Ger- mans and the Dutch. From three cen- turies of life in Africa they are as for— eign to the Germans and the Dutch as any foreign race can be. When the United States army beef scandals were exposed, the British papers pointed the finger of scorn and Contempt at the disgrace. So when lately it transpired that food suprlies for the British troops had been discard- ed as bad, the United States journals rose up and crowed with great joy, making apt quotations about kettles calling pots black and the pharisee jollying the publican. In the midst of this rejoicing the information that the discarded supplies were sent by United States contractors comes with the wet sponge effect. The United States papers, to square themselves, must now say they were laughing at something else.

PUNY CHILDREN Become Strong and Healthy by using Dr. A. W. Chase’s Nerve Food. Children are frequently left weak and sickly as an after result of measles, scarlet fever, etc., and in this state are easy prey to nervous. disorders, rickets, spinal disease, or consump- tion, diseases which do not affect robust, healthy children. The blood is weak and watery and the nerves tmproperly nourished. Feed the blood and nerves with Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Food, and the pale, pinched faces will g00n beconié@ rosy and plump, and tiredness and weakness will give way to strength and animation. Mr. E. W. Day, 62 Close Avenue, Toronto, writes: ‘‘My eldest daughter, aged eight, be- came very much run down. Her fretful,. ner- vous, sleepless condition greatly alarmed her parents. She was taken from school, and in spite of the best nursing, the thin, weakened, bloodless face grew painfully worse. Fortun- ately we used Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. An improvement became apparent ina few days, it continued, and in a few weeks she returned tq school built up anew, ard greatly to our joy fully restored to health.” Dr. A. W.
