STARVATION 0R MERCILESS TORTURE A choice between sta‘rthion 01‘ merciless bouture is the dismal pros- pect before all victims of indigesâ€" tion, for although they are in need ‘of food to nourish the body, they are afraid to eat because of the dong periods of pain and discomâ€" fort that, follow even the lightest of meals. . The urgent, need of all who suffer from indigestion is to gain strength so that the stomach Oil-f: way the stomach signifies its protest that it is Mo weak to do nature's work. To take purgatives is only to aggravate the trouble. Dr. Wilâ€" iiams' Pink Pills giro new strength to weak stomachs because they en- rich and purrin the blood supply, thus enabling the stomach to di- gest food naturally. Almost from the finst the appetite revives: tlhen 'food can be taken without pain and the burden of indigestion disapâ€" pzmrs. The following case proves the truth of those statements. Mr. _‘W. H. Silver, a. well-known farmer Jiving in the vicinity of Hemfond. lN.S., says: “For upwards of seven beans I was tortured with indiges- tion ; sometimes I was so bad that I would not taste a, bit of hearty food. .but would have to content myself with a, bit of «stale bnead. At times I suffered excruciating aims in my stomach, and could ardly sheep at night. I tried variâ€" ous prescriptions, but got no beneâ€" t from them and naturally I was '11 a. very r-eIdIu-ced state of heallth.

This token of valor is the highest mark of distinction a French soldier can re- ceive. As in the case of the Victoria Cross, only intrepid souls may aspire to the Medaille Militaire. The wearer is among the bravest of the brave, and he finds himself in a select com- pany. He is honored with that gener- ous envy characteristic of the rank and file of the French army. One of the youngest soldiers upon whose breast the decoration has been pinned in the great war is Jacques Goujon, a boy of 17. Jacques volunteered at the -begin- ning of the war. He knew nothing of the school of the soldier. He was simply the raw material of which heroes are made, and he soon proved himself one” The opportunity came when, with some of his comrades, he was ordered to locate machine guns of the enemy that had been v'ery troublesome. The little party dis- covered the hiding place of the guns, but only after two German sentries were shot down. Before the quick- firers could be seized the French were attacked by a superior force and all but Goujon were killed. The lad dis- appeared into a hollow made by a shell, and remained there for 3 hours until the coast seemed to be clear. Emerging from his hole in the earth Jacques did not immediately return to his own lines, but decided to ex- ecute the orders given him. Being an inexperienced soldier, Jacques spent no time in speculating about the reason why the machine guns, of which there were three, had not been removed by the Germans. Two of the guns he at once destroyed with bombs, and in the very act the boy was taken prisoner. But Private Goujon was not done yet. With ready wit and a pair of.nimble legs he made his escape while being con‘ ducted to the rear. Later Jacques, pulling the remaining quick-firer, ap- peared in the French camp. No de- tails are given in the meagre dispatch of how the boy achieved this coup. Probably darkness favored him. We know only that the Medaille Militaire was bestowed upon him, that he was mentioned in an order of the day by the adjutant of his regiment, and that he was promoted to corporal. We have an idea that there is a marshal’s baton in the knapsack of Jacques Goujon, although since he was honored in the presence of his comrades a shell has blown off one of his arms. However, it is only an incident in his career as a soldierâ€"â€" that splendid veteran General Pan has but one arm.
