The soldiers were aroused from their s l u m b e r s and were served with a last hot meal. A visit to the. mess deeks showed these Australians, t h e majority of whom wore about to go into action for tiie "first time, u n d e r Ehe m o s t trying circumstances to be" cheerful a n d confident, By the side of the soldiers the boacli parties o our splendid bhieiiickets and marines were marshalled, arrayed in. old white iiniforma, dyed khaki colour, and carryinjj the old rifie and old e<iiupnient. These men were to take charge of the- boats, steer'tliem ashore, and row tliem to the beach, when they wore finally cast off by the towing pinnaces. Each boat Was in charge of a young midshipman, many of whom have come straight from . ^artmoutii, and now fonnd themselves called upon to play a most diflicuU and dungeroua role ,'hke men.

THIN BLOOD AND IN0IGEST!ON.
Thia-biooded people generally have atomach trouble. They aeldom recognise the fact that. thin blood is the cause of their indigestion, but it is. Thin blood is one of the most common causes of stomach trouble; it affects the digesiion very quickly. The glands that furnish the digestive fluids are diminished in their activity, the stomach muscles are weakened, and there is a loss of nerve force. In this state of health nothing will more quickly restore appetite, and digestion than good, red blood. , Dr. Williams' Pink Pills act directly on the blood, making it rich and red, arid this enriched blood Strengthens weak nerves, stimulates^ the tired muscles, and awakens to normal activity the glands that supply the digestive fluids. The first sign of returning health is an improved appetite, and soon the effect of these bloodmaking pills is evident throughout the system, You find that what you eat does not distress you, and that you are strong and vigorous, instead of iiTitablG and listless. Ton are now on the road to health, and care in your diet is all you need. ^ _' Restore your appetite now by beginning Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People at onee; they can he obtained of any dealer, but always ask for Dr. Williams'.

A Busy Magrrtate. 1 saw Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan the other day leaving his offices in Broad-street just before he returned to New York. I was impressed by his- extraordinary likeness to his father. He is as tall as his father was and has the same remarkable breadth of shoulders. He also has his father's ap parent lejsurelincss of gait. He seems never , to be .in a hurry, although he was one of the busiest men in London during his fortnight's visit. P r e m i e r ' s Tribute.

Prince Georse'8 Future. I hear that Prince George, who is thirteen in December, is tp have ohe more term at his school at Broadstairs. It is understood that this is likely to be his last term there, and that he will go on to Eton, where his brother Henry is. There was a likelihood that he would enter the Royal Naval College at Osborne and follow the sea as a profession, but. apparently the King has other views. The Ophelia Case. I passed an interesting half-hour yesterday morning in the Naval Prize Court watching the CQnclusion of the evidence in the famous Ophelia case before Sir Samuel Evans. The wireless, operator of the Opheliaa sturdy German sailorwas in the witness-box, and behind him, his bayonet glittering in the sunlight, stood a sergeant on guard. Sitting just in front of the .barristers was one of the German naval qfhcers concerned in the case, the bright ultramarine blue of his collar providing a striking note of colour in the court.

A Famous Name. There is, I hear, a good deal of anxiety in the Gladstone family concerning Lieutenant C. A. Gladstone, who is reported missing. This promising young officer had been attached to the Royal Flying Corps since November last. A master at Eton College and an Oxford Blue, he was well known "up the river" both as a fine athlete and a man of intellectual distinction, and here, I am told, his bad luck has evoked expressions of profound concern.
A Double Blow.

He is the sole agent in the United States for t h e Admiralty and War Office, and is in entire charge of the g i g a n t i c purMr. J. Pierpotit Morgan. chases of war material being made for themThis arrangement makes of Mr., Morgan a veritable "captain of industry." Mr, Morgan muist have been pleased at the tribute paid to. him the other day in the' House by Mr. Asquith^ who stated that the Government appreciated the value of the services he has rendered during the war. Tiwice Wounded. Colonel Bridges, who a few days'ago was severely injured hy a shell, is held in high estimation'by Sir John French,, and some time ago was decorated by King AJbert for thg invaluable services he has rendered. This is the second time Colonel Bridges has been wounded, in the present war. The first occasion was on the Aisne, when he had his horse shot under him! During the South African War he was shot in the right, hand by a ricochetting bullet, and his hand now' remains permanently injured, Cel^iT-ities in Armoured Cars. Many well-known celebrities have ohtained commissions in the Armoured Car-Brigade, I of whic'h several squadrons are now in FranceAmong others are Griggs, the famous jockey; " T o n e y " Wilding, of lawn 'tennis fame, who has taken part in several of the smaller " s c r a p s " ; MacMinnis, who won the Motor Grand Prix in France last year, and Cherry Garrard, who was zoologist to Captain Scott on the ill-fated Antarctic expedition.

The fate of'young Gladstone is a double blow to his relatives, for it was only a few weeks ago that the . ^ world was shocked Sir S a m u e l C o r r e c t s I n t e r p r e t e r . ll-ieut. -C. A. Gladstone, by the news of the On tw6 or three occasions Sir Samuel death of his cousm, Evans, showed an expert knowledge of Ger- Lieutenant W . G. C.
