1 SOLDIER'S SPRINT TO SAFETY. Renter's .correspondent, writing; from ehe British Headquarters, says a certain soldier is now the pride of his regiment in consequence of the skill and daring with which he extricated himself from a very.tight corner. Just where the adventure happened matters not. The man was sent out on patrol duty with another. They wore surprised by a party of the enemy in considerably stronger force, and called upon to surrender. They replied by firing, and killed a German, after which the companion bolted. The unnamed hero, coming to the conclusion that a live man is very much bettor than a. dead one, permitted himself to be taken. He was thereupon disarmed and searched. But his captors failed to observe that, with sleight-of-hand skill, he was concealing a grenade in his capacious list. This he dexterously returned to his pocket when the Bodies had finished rummaging his tunic. The disconsolate looking Tommy was borne in triumph to the German lines. Fori some reason lie appears to have been left in charge of a solitary sentinel, whilst the rest of the party moved away. Quietly withdrawing the bomb from his j pocket, but slipping out th e safety-pin, •he suddenly broke from his postune of cowed dejection *and brought the object down witli a tremendous whack upon the skull' of the guard. The German dropped like a log, his rifle and bayonet clattering to the ground. Tommy then took to his heels in the direction of the British lines, but had not gone far when he 1 came upon another German patrol. Challenged to surrender, he stood still, and allowed the enemy to approach him close. Then suddenly poising the grenade, he hurled it right into the midst of the little group. There was an immediate explosion, followed by cries and moans, and the gallant soldier continued his sprint, returning safely to tell the story to -his cheeritur comrades.

SUNBURNT AND BLISTERED REXONA SOOTHES AND HEALS Dtjxedix, Wednesday. " My little girl. 18 months old, was suffering severely from the effects of Sunburn, her skin being blistered and raw in many parfei and in a shocking state," writes Mrs. M. Dreaver, 16 Henry-street, Maori Hill, ©unedin, N.Z. "We used a, great many varieties of salves, oils, and ointments, but in one so young with such tender and sensitive skin everything seemed to act more as an irritant than a curative. A lady who had a little boy in a similar state advised us to try ■llexona Ointment* as it had caved his trouble. I am pleach to say it quickly ■\oothed and cooled the blistered parts, took away the angry inflammation, and we wers able" to see her g'ei ting her natural sleep again, as she did not attempt to scratch herself vfter the first application of Rexona Ointment, and in a very short time all traces of the Sunburn had disappeared. Her skin is •it present more clear and beautiful than ever, thanks to your Rexona Ointment, and we can recommend it to all for use in such sensitive c&sss.' •Rexoca, rhe Rapid Healing Ointment, is a reinai-fcablv effective ranedy for a 11 affection* of the akin, abo for wounds, burns, soroo, fed those E&aoy hurts which are constantly filing for the ua of reliable raincdy.
