It appears that General Joffre fore- saw the German flanking movement teward Calais during the last days of the battle of the Marne, and began sending troops to parry it as early as September 8. Between that date and the beginning of October 800 trains carried seventeen army corps and three divisions of cavalry northwards. A review of the military operations beginning with the mobilization show that the railroads of France have ac i complished everything that was ex- pected of them, contrary to the ex- rerience of 1870. Military Train Operation. The first consideration in developing the efficiency of the military railroad is the maximum number of frains that can be Tun one after another within a given time. Consequently all mili- tary trains are obliged to run at the same reduced speed, following each cther at very close intervals under the block system; without risk of acci- dent the continuous movement accom- vlishes more than would be done b: bigh speed which would necessarily involve increased space between trains. In preparation for this intens movement necessitated by the mobil zation, the officers of the railw: vice of the French army met ever year under the direction of the gen- eral staff to study the problems in- volved, each officer being placed on the spot where in time of war he would be called upon to exer his functions.

Manchester’s resolution sent in' before its board of directors had been over- thrown because they adhered to Free Trade, voiced their view thus: “It is highly undesirable at the present time to be committed to any such far- reaching decision as the modification of our present fiscal system.” But this resolution—the only expression for adhering to the old policy—was withdrawn, as Manchester itself had | reversed this policy and was choos- ing commercial directors favoring a tarift.

Three army corps, five divisions of infantry, and three divisions of cavalry were brought by rail from Lorraine, part to the region of Chalons sur Marne and part to the region of Paris. The battle of the Marne won, the railroads began pouring troops to the north in the race to the sea. The relative calm along the itself at certain periods brings no r to the railroads. From February to August, 1915, 3,430 troop trains were 1un while the average of supply trains was 131 a day; at the same time there were 222 ambulance trains in service. Besides assuring the transportation of troops, the railroads have since the war added 200 miles of regular guage and forty miles of narrow guage trac tc their strategic lines and largely transformed 153 military stations. front st ew laid Conn $1.00.

Rheumatism is caused by poisonous toxin, called uric acid, which is ge erated in the bowels and absorbed in- to the blood. Tt is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine, The pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impur- ity. In damp and chilly, cold weath- er the skin pores are closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this uric acid which keeps accumulating and cir- culating through the system, eventual- ly settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon- ful in a glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acia by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impurities.
