May 23.- An intimation that German Zeppelin airships pro- hably will use bombs charged with poisonous gases, if they make raids on London, is contained in a notice is- sued by Scotland Yard tonight. To the caution previously given that the public should take refuge in house in order to be put out of the way of the fragments of shells which might be fired at enemy aircraft, is the following injunction: "lt would be well for persons thus taking refuge to keep all windows and doors on lower floors closed, so as to prevent the admission of these gases." What Thin Folks Should Do To Gain Weight Physlclan'| Advles For Thin, Unde- veloped Men and Women. Thousands of people suffer from ex- cessive thinness, weak nerves and feeble stomachs who, having tried ad- vertised ilesh-makers, food-fads, phy- sical culture stunts and rub-on creams, resign themselves to life-long skinni- ness and think nothing will make them fat. Yet their case-is not hope- less. A recently discovered regenera- tive force makes fat grow after years of thinness, and is also unequalied for repairing the waste of sickness or faulty digestion and for strengthen- ing the nerves. This remarkable dis- covery is called Sargol. Six strength- giving, fat-producing elements of ac- knowledged merit have been combiii- ed in this peerless preparation, which is endorsed" "`hy element physicians and used by prominent people every- where. It is absolutely harmless, in- expensive and eflicient. A month’s systematic use of Sargol should produce flesh and strength by correcting faults of digestion and by supplying highly concentrated fats to the blood. Increased nourishment is obtained from the food eaten, and the additional fats that thin people need are provided. Leading druggists sup- ply Bargol and say that is a large de- mand for it. While this new preparation has giv- cn splendid results as a nerve-tonic and vitallzer, is should not be used by nervous people unless they wish to gain at least ten pounds of flesh. ‘save susMAnINE " Fines A ronpsno AT 'rnANsvi.vANIA.

TORONTO, May 23.- Delegates from all sections of Ontario attended the annual meeting of the Liberal club federation of the province, at the Ontario club Friday afternoon. At the banquet last night Sir Wilfrid Laurier delivered a patriotic address. “I do not care to open the portals of office with that bloody key," he says, referring to a. mid-war election. In such a. crisis political expediency should be lost sight of, in view of the menace to the Empire. He showed how opposing parties among other sunk political differences to face the universal perii. :1 coalition govern- ment in Great Britain, the Irish Pro- testant and Catholic home rulers and Orangemen standing shoulder to political differences for the common good. As leader of the liberal party, lie was ready to co-operate with i.he government oi’ the war. Line Transylvania, carrying 876 pas- DAUGHTER DYING FATHER SEES IN DREAM. ST.

A (Daily ll/iail, London.) The French riiic, known as the Lebel, was the first magazine-rifle ad- opted by a European nrmy, and the first rifle to fire .smokeless powder. It is also the oldest rifle in use by any i’ir_st-line army. its peculiarity is its magazine, which is not, as in the Lee-Metford or Mauser, placed at the breech. but lies in the tube undernea- th tlie whole length oi’ the barrel. The eight cartridges which it contains are nserted one by one, the bullet of each pressing on the base of the next, and it spring drives them forward towards the breech, where the cartridge is caught by the belt and thrust into the breech. The Lebel is heavy, weighing 9 lb. 3% oz., its bullet is a large one, 315 in. in diameter, of the usual point- ed type. coated with copper-nickel or copper. As no charger is employed the magazine is somewhat slow to charge. ln the present war it has pro-- ved a very serviceable weapon, and the strength of the breech has enabl- ed very powerful charges to be used. The Belgian and Serbian Armies both use Mauser rifles, but of smaller bore than the pattern adopted by the German Army. The Belgian rifle is 301 iii. in callbar; the Serbian is 276 in. Both take five rounds in the mag- PETROGRAD, via London, May 18 -Efforts of the Germans to force a crossing of the River San, in Central Galicia, are being concentrated north of Przemysl, where a battle for the fortifications along the river slopes is now developing.

This is not in accord- ance with facts. Khaki has been in the British army on active service for more than forty years. lt was iii usc iii the Jowaki Expedition in 1877. A- gain all troops (British and native) cn- gaged in the Afghanistan war, 1878-79- 80, wore khaki.

(The Austrian official report of May 15 said that the Germans had occu- pied Jsroslau.) Farther south along the San in the neighborhood of Lsisko and Sanuk, Gerinan activity is also reported, but the operations there evidently are less important, being more in the nature of cavalry reconnaissances. Retirement of the Russian forces from positions in the Carpathians re- sulted in a compact and effective mussiiig of their troops from the ‘Ban to ilukowina. Russian successes in the latter region, giving them entire control of the Rivers Pruth and Dnies- ter, are regarded here as offsetting the Austro-German forces in West Galicia.
