"It was a terrible sight to see the lovely ship sinking." Chatting of subjects that engage the attention of the soldiers on the Gallipoli Peninsula, lie says:—"We see very little of the enemy, as the guns are well behind the firing lines anrl everybody is well entrenched. The only Turks we see are those brought in pri. soners, and the majority of them seem to be very well clothed. AVe are living like a lot of rabbits here. Everybody lives in a hole well dug in, and we move about always in trenches about eight feet deep; some of the dug-outs are quite comfortable. , The only drawback is the flies, of which there are millions. They nearly eat one alive. We are being well cared for—plenty of clothes and food. The only things we are short of are tobacco and matches." FOR RHEUMATIC! SUFFERERS. What glad news it is to hear that you can be cured of Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sciatica or Gout—and cured permanently. Even if you have been suffering for years and have triad all kinds of advertised cures in vain you owe it to yourself to try RHEUMO. Liniments or embrocations only deaden the pain for a whiIe—RHEUMO cures in the one and only way; it penetrates the blood, cleanses it of excess uric acid and th.is removes the cause. Once the cause is removed, the pain and swelling disappear. Why use salts with foreign names and so-called "remedies" which claim to cure rheumatism and everything else? Try RHEUMO-a specilo intended to cure Rheumatic complaints only, Thousands of New Zealanders have been cured quickly, permanently, and we have their letters of praise for RHEUMO. Mr. William James, of the Terminus Hotel, Chrigfchurch, was cured by this powerful remedy aftei- suffering for 14 years.
