English Soldier Writes of "Lucky" Wound Received in Charge

"A solid fortnight In bed is very nice after ten months without a bed," says Clarence Mason, an English soldier writing to his cousin, Leona Charles of thiB city. Mason, who wab wounded in action, was sent back to London to a hospital and says, "I have been praying for this for a long time." The letter follows: "I went in line, and over the top about June 1. 1 had not been in line for four months and thought I was unlucky being rteurned to duty just .before the battalion went over, but such was not the case for wunin nrteen minutes of the start of the engagement I had received a nice "blighty," what we call a slight wound, which gets us to England, and was racing to the rear much faster than I came up, shedding rifle equipments, bombs, etc., on the way. "At. 9 p. m., the 31st of May we left the reserve trench, in companies and keeping 60 yards between platoons, made our way forward to a communication trench very near the front line. Although shelled rather heavily we had but one casualty on the trip up. We remained in the trench until nearly two in the morning. "Presently tea came up but it was such vile stuff no one could drink it; then came rum which was viler still, but no one seemed able to get enough of it. "Finally word came that the Y company was moving. We followed them out of the trench, through a valley and up the bank on one 6ide where we 'formed up,' climbed over our wire and lay down in four long rows out in No Man's Land just as the first faint light became visible in the east. Scarcely had the last man laid down when there came a sound like a strong November wind in a forest and the engagement had started. Shower of Shells. "It as shrapnel shells at first and they burst in a long row Just a few feet off the earth, so close together a to appear to be pushing one another out of the way. The semi-darkness was lit up by the flickering unearthly light "of shell flashes which came so rapidly and steadily that although a flash lasts but a fraction pf a second the weird illumination did not die down for several minutes and gave a fantastic appearance to men going forward or the wounded coming back. "Soon other shells came over, those that did not explode until coming in contact with the earth or other objects. They are more deadly than shrapnel, as they blow to bits anything near where they light and there is danger from flying splinters even at 500 yeards. These sheila came quite as thickly as shrapnel and the earth was torn up in all directions. "Just as the attack started, our engineers released a lot of cloud gas in the valley on our right. This dense greenish-yellow cloud filled the valley from side to side and arose about 200 feet. It was illuminated by liquid fire and trench mortars firing into it. WITH THOSE IN ARMY AND NAVY This column, containing news of Richmond and Wayne county soldiers and sailors, will appear dally in the Palladium. Contributions will be welcomed. Mrs. Russell Batchelor has received word that her husband is located at Camp Taylor, has been made a sergeant. Sergeant Batchelor went to Camp Taylor July 25.

This was to prevent a counter attack taking place on that flank. "Presently the shells began falling further, ahead and : what there was left of the first wave moved up. I received my lucky hit and by 5 a. m., I was away on ' the motor ambulance. After I was 'able .to. travel I was shipped back to England and was fortunate in being sent to Bethnal Green hospital in London. The next morning my wife with our little girl whom I had not seen, came walking into the hospital ward. "This makes one solid fortnight in bed and.it is very nice after ten months without a bed. I have been praying for this a long time and now I certainly appreciate it."

Lesson In Srienfifir . Complexion Renewin7 Everyone has a beautiful skin underucdiii itic who cu.cu iu tiew, xtear that In mind and it will Ha milr tn understand the correct principle In acquiringa lovely complexion. Nature" Is constantly shedding the top skin In uany piriiciri iie ainnrun, only murn smaller In size. In abnormal conditions, or in advancing age, these particles are not shed as rapidly as In robust youth. The longer they -remain the more soiled or faded they become that's the immediate cause of a "bad complexion." It has Nn discovered that ordinary mercollzed wax. to be had at any drusr store, will absorb these worn-out particles. The absorption, while hastening Nature's work, goes on gradually enough to cause no inconvenience. In a week or. two the transformation is complete. The fresh, healthy-hued. youthful underskln Is then wholly In evidence. You who are not satisfied ounce of mercolized wax and try this with your complexions should get an treatment. Use the wax nightly, like cold cream, washing It off mornings. Adv. Bmtnru h"9ba cr FOR THE torarD99 CSCC HCRC mot 1 , MAV ei ATTACHCM TO MIAT I HI AT IB irnrfTAiitiiifR? GQgniP ii'i Hli
