A business man was remonstrated with by a banker friend, who argued that the classified want ad p.-ge was a poor place to secure customers for his business. The business man came back at his banker friend with “How do you know that I am using the classified column?" Why.

Signaller Skqyhil, though si ill wearing glasses, can now see well. He today wrote the fidlowing story for The Times, in which he gives a vivid picture of the sensations he e.' perieneed upon regaining his ey< sight; IBy Signaller Tom Skeyhill) When 1 entered rhe operaling room at Garfield Memorial Hospital 1 ha 1 little hope that osteopathy could do anything for me. This idea was re moved shortly, however, for within a few minutes after Dr. Moore began manipulating the back of my neck at the apex of the spinal column 1 ex-1 perienced a sharp, excruciating pain. Then, as if by magic, little flashes of light began to come before my here- : tofore dimmed eyes, and before I realized just what was taking place 1 found that I could see. My first sensations were those of ( intense gratitude for the view of this I grand old world, which for the last I seventeen months has been a place of total darkness to me. Every ob-1 ject on which my newly returned right fell seemed beautiful beyond c. tnpare. Even the bare white walls o the hospital appeared to my start-j led gaze the most beautiful things on which I ever looked. While in the course of my travels) in all parts of the world, speaking j and writing for patriotic purposes, I l ave <elt the most intense gratitude to the good people who has showered me with kindness. 1 must say that when 1 found the curtain of darkness was lifted front my eyes. 1 experienced a thrill which will be my I most vivid recollection for the remainder of my life. Thankful for Sight. When I became certain that the re- ( turn of my sight was not a cruel dreant. and that henceforth, I should be able to look upon the faces of my t friends and view the world as I did ‘ when a light hearted boy. I sprang to the colors in defense of the empire menaced by the Hun. I could not help stopping for a brief moment and of ' faring a silent prayer of thankful ness. No man who has not experienc'ed the shock entailed in the loss of his sight can appreciate in the remotest degree the feelings which surge I hrough me, now that I am again in a land of light and 1 know that 1 can go on as other men and see the glories of a breaking day or watch the sunset sink at eventide behind

The battle in which 1 was blinded was fought on the Gappiloli peninsula December 8. 1916. We were charging up a steep declivity when there was an awful world rocking explosion. and I. among others, staggered back and fell to the ground. 1 was unconscious for some time, but at last came a sense of returning consciousness, which was followed by the dread realization that though still alive. 1 was blind. Given Small Hope Regular physicians ascribed my condition to shell shock and wore not at all encouraged as to the possibility of my ever regaining sight. 1. however, kept on and hundreds of physicians, some famous specialists in England. France and the United States, have examined my eyes, all looming to the same conclusion, that only a medical miracle could save me I from going through life in the black : mists. Now that Moore has, by a simple 'manipulation, restored my sight. I | shall proclaim his name wherever I go and tell my experience, wherever jl speak, of the simple manner in | which this mar brought my sight back to me. I My one ambition now is to complete my lecture arrangements and get back into action, where every able-bodied man should be. There is :a battle line in France that needs strengthening and it is there 1 want ;to he. fighting shoulder to shoulder , I with the gallant American lads, the 1 i bravo French, the indomitable British. the fine Italians and the men of Canada and Australia whose dash and daring have won the admiration ofp the world and the bitter hatred of S the Huns, who haven’t the physical f strength or moral courage to face us, 1 man to man. in the open field.
