THE BLOOD is the LIFE of the FLESH

Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills-What they are and what they do. Their Four Principal Ingredients.

It is an established fact that all diseases spring from one source, namely: Impurity of the Blood. Therefore our strength, health, and life depend upon the vital fluid. When the various passages become clogged, and do not act in perfect harmony with the different functions of the body, the blood loses its action, becomes thick, corrupted, and diseased, thus causing pains, sickness, and distress of every name; our strength is exhausted; and if Nature is not assisted in throwing off the stagnant humours, the blood will become choked and cease. to act, and thus our light of life will be extinguished. How important, then, that we should keep the various passages of the body free and open, and if assistance is necessary to have at hand that invaluable remedy, Dr. MORSE'S INDIAN ROOT PILLS, manufactured from plants and roots which grow around the mountain cliffs in Nature's garden, for the health and recovery of diseased man.

One of the roots from which these Pills are made is a SUDORIFIC, which opens the pores of the skin, and assists Nature in throwing out the finer parts of the corruption within.

The second is a plant which is an EXPECTORANT that opens and unclogs the passage to the lungs, and thus in a soothing manner performs its duty by throwing off the phlegm and other humours from the lungs by copious spitting.

The third is a DIURETIC, which gives ease and double strength to the Kidneys; thus encouraged, they draw large amounts of impurity from the blood, which is thrown out bountifully by the urinary or water passages, and which could not have been discharged in any other way.

The fourth is a CATHARTIC, and accompanies the other properties of the Pills while engaged in purifying the blood, and the coarser particles of impurity which cannot pass by the other outlets are thus taken up and conveyed off in large quantities by the bowels.

From the foregoing it is shown that Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills not only enter the stomach, but become united with the blood, for they find the way to every part, and completely root out and cleanse the system from all impurity, and the life of the body, which is the blood becomes perfectly healthy; consequently all sickness and pain are driven from the system, for they cannot remain when the body becomes pure and clean.

Dr. Morse's INDIAN ROOT PILLS are an efficient, reliable, and safe remedy placed on the market at a price within the reach of all. The Pills being sugar-coated, are pleasant to take, and retain their full medicinal properties. They are packed in amber-coloured bottles-not in cheap wooden or pateboard boxes-and are thus always fresh and clean, impervious to moisture, unaffected by climatic conditions, and do not deteriorate by keeping as all liquid medicines do.

WAR NEWS,

DANISH SHIPPING LOSSES,

It is officially stated that Danish ship- ping has suffered the following losses during the war!--

Six steamers torpedoed without warn- ing by. German submarines; ten sailing vessels burned by German submarines; sight steamors and two sailing vessels blown up by mines,

The total loss amounts to about ten million kroners.

HINDENBURG'S ALTERNATIVE,

RIOA AND DVINSK AT WHATEVER COST

ON RETREAT. ··

An Englishman, who has only just. returned from Russia, impresses upon me, says a London correspondent, the vital importance to the Germans of the capture of Riga and the railway which runs from that port southwards e Vilna and across the Pripet marebes in Royno and Tarno pol The chief reason for this is the necessity of supplying their whole eastern front throughout the winter by conveying along this great trunk line stores brought oversca from Danzig to Riga.

Indeed, my informant holds strongly to the view. thai, unless the Germans are able to seize Riga at a very early date, they will have to fall back upon East Pruesia and the Vistula. They cannot possibly stay where they are at prevent with their centre and flanks alike in the air or in the marshes.

Before Riga falls Dvinsk must be taken. Therefore, the terrific German attacks on the latter city will be renewed until von Hindenburg has achieved his purpose or the German losses become even too heavy for the German General Staff to contem plate With equanimity.

Some little time ago I remarked that whether the present position of the Ger: mana had been designedly "manœuvred " by the Allies' strategy or not, they could not have been more favourable than they are to the compassing of a crushing German defeat. It must now be obvious, even to the most superficial observer, that the German military position is desperate as, indeed, it has long beon.

BERLIN GETTING IMPATIENT.

DESPONDENCY AND DISGUST THROUGHOUT GERMANY.

The Gofcbary Porten (Sweden) pub lishes an article by a writer just return ed from Berlin. It states that the people are becoming impatient and are asking why the army has not reached Paris, why General von Hindenburg is supplied with ill-trained "Landwehr," why the Crown Prince is inactive with good troops; why the number of bank-cotes has quadrupled, if the financial situation is really good and why the British Colonies have not revolted, as the German officials promised. The writer adds that despondency and disgust with the war are general through out Germany. People of various classes, from officers to labourers, who are said to have looked forward to a success on the Eastern front as a certain means of secur ing peace apparently now doubt whether as Eastern success is obtainable. onerawus losses there are now known, and the people realise that the time is ap proaching when only schoolboys and old men will obey the summons to arms.

The

The Central Nows Hague correspon dent says that a private report from German Frankfort states that many reservists used to reinforce the Loos front refused to fight until their officers and other sections compelled them by means of swords and revolvers. Similar inci- dents elsewhere have produced a disagree able impression in German military circles.

The donkey seemed to that away know as well as the nu through the awful gullies above them there were two chances of saving wounded soldiers from a lingering death; and twenty chances of sharing it with The They were a quaint couple. them. man was a 6-ft.

Some days they would bring in as many as twelve or fifteen men, gathered at infinite risk in the dangerous broken country around far-out Quinn's Post Every trip saw them face: the terrors of the Valley of Death; here all day and all night the air sang with the bullets from the Turkish snipers hidden on Dead Man's Ridge.

The man had carried two heavy men in succession down the awful slopes ui Shrapnel Gulley and through the Valley of Death. His eye lit on the donkey,

THE BALKAN SITUATION.

A message to London, dated October 11th, says that a thirty miles strip of Serbis separates the Tureo Bulgarian from the Teutonic forces, The Paris Press regards the prevention of a juno tion as of the most vital interest to the Allies. The effect produced in Paris by the Greek crisis is diminishing. Con fidence is now expressed that prolonged Greek abstention is impracticable.

The Paris edition of the New York Herald states that the action of the Kai ser in forcing King Ferdinand to leave his ambush has deprived King Constan- tine of all his chances of remaining on the fence..

He must descend on the Allies side. Germany's Balkan adventure will be advantageous to the Allies, who possess vast reserves of men and minitions. The more troops Germany sends to the Bal kans, the less difficult it becomes for the Allies to carry the war into Germany. The Allies, in fact, control the situation both here and in the Balkans.

As they reached the dangerous turn the machine gun rattled out, and the man fell with a bullet through his heart. The donkey walked unscathed into safety.

There was a hush through the Aus- tralian trenches that night, when the news went round that the Man with the Donkey had got it." There was a re- verent silence, too, when they buried him next day. His grave bears the rough inscription:-

"Sacred to the memory of Private W. Simpson, of the Third Field Ambulance, West Australia,"

But if you wish an "Australian to tell you his story, you must ask for the Man with the Donkey.
