except by keeping it.

My managers have, with mature deliberation, resolved to cater only for those. who are willing to pay the price for the very best article.

There is not enough of my quality to allow of my being popular except amongst the select circles of discriminating users of alcohol.

Do not be surprised because I am not found everywhere. If I were I would not be the supremely fine article that I am. As I am a supremely fine article, you must be willing to pay the highest price for me, or else be satisfied with something less fine.

WATER DIVINING AT

GALLIPOLI,

BIBLICAL PRECEDENT IN A LIBEL ACTION.

The succesful water divining of an Australian supper when the British forces as Gallipoli were in a serious position from lack of water was the feature of a libel action beard recently by Mr. Justice | Darling and a special jury.

Mr. Stopbon Kelly, who unsucessfully contented the Brixton Division in Decem- ber, 1918, as a Discharged Soldiers' can- didate, sued the prorietors of the Briston Free Press for damages for libel "con- tained in a statement published in February last when Mr. Kelly was asked to become a Labour Party candidate for the London County Council.

Afr. Cannot, for Mr. Kelly, said the libel complained of was contained in the following paragraph -

The new Labour Party, which in- cludes would-be Bolsheviks, have backed is couple of men' whom they say they

are prepared to vote for.

These are Mr. Tavener, an official of the Car penters Society, and Mr. Stephen Kelly, an Australian sapper, who saved the Gallipoli army--well, he says so-and was rewarded by his Govern ment by a 78. 6d. persion, which they

ave since withdrawn."

It is untrue," said Mr. Cannot," to say that the pension was withdrawn, and it is a serious imputation on Mr. Kelly to suggest that he is connected with Bol- aberism."

L

Mr. Kelly, in his evidence, stated that he could locate water without using a divining rod. "I located altogether thirty-two springs at Gallipoli," he said, And hundreds on other parts of the peninsula."

During the fighting against the Turks Mr. Kelly was wounded and was placed on a stretcher. At that time the tempe rature was 110 in the shade and the water for the troops had to come in barges and oil ting from Malta or Alexandria

General Hugher came to me," Mr. Kelly continued, and said that it meant surrender or death if we found no water, as it would be impossible to receivo sup- plies for seven days. I offered to drv. to find water. The next morning I was helped down by two comrades, and I found a spring giving 2,000 gallons an hour. I was mentioned in despatches by Sir Ian Hamilton on

Mr. Kelly, in reply to further quer tions, admitted that in bis election address be reprinted an interview bearing the heading Saved an Army." I do not regard such an action as boasting," he said.

Mr. Justice Darling. I cannot help thinking that if Moses had stood for Parliament he would have mentioned that little matter of his in the desert.

No evidence was called for the defence. The jury awarded Mr. Kelly £25 damages, and judgment was entered so cordingly, with coetä.

·A MARTYR TO SCIENCE,

MIDDLESEX HOSPITAL DOCTOR'S

VEDEVOTION.

Presiding at the Court of Governors of" Middlesex Hospital, the Eazi of Athlone made a moving reference to the resignation, due to illness, of Dr. Cecil Lyster, whose work as an X-Rays inves tagator is very well known in the medical world.

Dr. Lyster has been for a number of years the head of the electro-therapeu tic department of the hospital, and who know him personally were aware that apparent deformities of the hands were caused by the repeated use of the surgeon's knife to

parts which had become affected by the rays. The report of the Weekly Board described Dr. Lystera il- nees ne due to unselfish devotion to duty.

He bim. self, by exposure to the rays in the early days when the knowledge of their was slight, fell a victim to the disease he sought to conquer though suffering, and compelled frequently to seek the surgeon's aid, he declined to be set aside from his urpose, and continued his good work Latil now, when work is for him no longer possible. Such a record of service for others, life spent in the advancement of science, with no regard for person safety commands tour admiration, der, and respect, and Ik you join with me in sending to Dr. Lyat expression of our deep sympathy, and our carnest hope for his recovery
