Describing the fighting at K.ar«e, in the Free State, Mr F. W. Wilkinson, the corres pondent of the Sydney D^ily Tdtgtoph I writes j —The Boers appeared bo have trained » their guns suddenly on the small kopje where Griffin, and I were standing. Our hones were grazing a few yards in the rear. The ant shell dropped about twenty yards to the right front, and we suddenly discovered that this was no fit place f r us. We ran to our i horses and almost fell over two prostrate fornn in civilian dress, One was short and spare, spectacled and black moustaohed. This was Rudy»rd Kipling. The other was »toab and rubicund ; in fact, none other than Gannett Burleigh, of the London Daily Tele graph. "This is a rummy sensation—the first time under fire," quoth Rudyard, still nursing mother earth. " I had no id«a we were within range," replied Burleigh, making ! a break for a korjs ajnUe astern. •» My faith in you as a military expert is begie ning to waver," chaffed Rudyard, as he went off In hot pursuit. They had not gone fifty yards when a shell burst just where they had been lyin K . KipUn« was seeing his first fight, and he was within an aqa of seeing his last. Griffin and I m»d« off uider cover to repin the New South Wales In fantry, who were creeping round to attack on the extreme right, while two "pompoms" kept the enemy interested in fronb.

Mis. Pimples. I Sun Signs of Impure Blood. •Do not think that washes and oint ments can cure eruptions of the skin. They cannot. The cause is deeper, even down in the very blood itself. Purify your blood, and your skin will be smooth and clear. j' Mr. James Johnson, of South Forbes, New South Wales, sends us his photo graph, and says j ••My whole body, was almost covered wita boils. Reading about AVHTS 1 thought I wonld try it. I took one bottle, and vh entirely free from any eruption what eTer. My eyesight was greatly strengthened aleo."
