"Thirty-two million men, it is estimated, are engaged in the European war, and the end is not .vet," observed Dr. S. Sargentieh, of the imperial Russian Hospital at Nish, Serbia. "It is impossible to write accurately about the war, for tht vastness of it is'beyond human corapre* henion. It is sickening in its horjorg, No man can last long under the strain. I spent the gTeater part of two years at the front and in the field hospitals. Millions of men have been killed, but the percentage of mortality is not ao high, perhaps, as in some other wars. Sixty per cent, of the wounded treated in the hospital at Nish, whero I was stationed, were back in the trenches inside of a month. The courage of the soldiers of all nations engaged is wonderful. The Serbian soldiers told me that the Aubtriang were the bravest individual fighters they encountered. They gave nigh praise to the (iermans in mass fighting, but they said thi' Teutons were not as good fighters individually as the Auatrians. The' world has never known a braver littlo army than that of Montenegro," added Dr. Rargentieh. "With one-quarter million men the Montene- ; grins stood oil their enemies for more than a year. Montenegro has been a, free nation for 500 years, and this is the first time they have been driven out of their country. They could not stand against the combined forces of Austrian*, Germans, Turks, and Bulgarians." INFANTILE PARALYSIS. Health authorities recognise, that th» constituents of Ptuenuol are invaluable for throat and nose disinfectation. • Sir Rider Haggard, in a farewell message from Auckland, says that he has finished his work in Australasia, which was wonderfully successful—far more so than he could have wished. He hoped machinery would be provided at Home .' to handle emigration on Empire lines. He reiterated, emphatically that the Co- , lonial Institute had no wish to tempt a single family to leave Great Britain. If they did emigrate, it was desired to make certain that they would find a ; home m a country where their own flag flies. He rejoiced that Australasia would $ welcome them witli open anus, and do its best to secure a prosperous future "j to those who had risked their lives to I keep our race safe throughout the Em- ■ ■* CURE FOR RHEUMATISM. ■'.." h This it not a patent medicine, it to .'.."• a prescription of an eminent English '■ 1 specialist. For years I had been a suf- , ferer from chronic rheumatism. Ope year ago I consulted one of the leadrag specialists of the Dominion (no* ! deceased). On receipt of postage stamps, i, money order, or postal notes for 4s «d, ■$ I will post twelve doses of the remedy, which this specialist declared to be the -' only thing known to science as i cure : for this painful disease.
