GEI<MAN BAT.LO.»v- CAUGHT IH A. STOI.M. I A terrible ballooa accident occurred ' at Antwerp on February Ist, whereby Lieutenant yon Biegefeld, a well known German military aeronaut, was killed, and Dr Lineke, of Potsdam, injured. I The balloon, which had eooae from Potsdam in, it eeems, about five hoars, was seen to be driven before a violent storm, which seeuried to chase it over the oioeiia at»d acrosa to Scheldt, I nearly touching the masts of the Fries land in so doing. It was noticed that the ballast was thrown out to prevent | the balloon falling into the water, and a vast crowd watched the desperate i straggle between the two men in the ; car and the elements, I An anchor was thrown out, hut the cable broke and the balloon came over j the village of Zwyndrecht, the peasants I following it closely. Ife was being j damaged by the high trees, when at about fifteen feet above the ground, Dr Lineke sprang oat of the car and peach, d the earth only slightly hurt. I Lieutenant yon iSiegffeld tried to follow Hisj example, but failed to get e'eir of the ropes, and remained hang ing to the cordage by his left foot t The balloon rose slowly and then dropped again; the officer was sus pended motionless, when the balloon agan dropptd and sped ovtrtbe ground, dragging ihe unfortunate man hea downward for at least two hundred yards, At last the peasants managed to secure the rope?, and brought the bal looa to a standstill, but the unfortunate aeronaut was dead. His head was srvuished/his leg and his spine broken, and his nose and ear torn off. Thf) balloon had covered over three mi es i i one minute^ Lieutenant yon Siegsfeld was one t£ the most distinguished aeronauts in the i Germaa Array, ! tie was specially well known by his ! adaptation of the Chinese system of 'dragon baiioona for scientific research, and also for his famous six-hour jour ney from Berlin to Baycska, in the Carpathian Mountains, on March stb, 1899.

A recently pub'iahed Blue Book gives scmo insight into the working of i the concentration camps, and also a few Buuipiea of the most approved Boer remediea for certain diseases.. D.- Keiidal Frank-! gives a few more sa in pica of: Boer remedies which are re'»puDfeiblo for a good deal of the inor tali y, Mr J Kniger, the ex-Presi dens'a nephew, atked that his wife might ba allowed • a cow-dung bath' for her rheumatism. Mi I-iandle, the BlounfonUin.saper inUndfiiii, one day vihited Abr»m Straus?, as ooe oC'ths head men of the camp, --Mid saw a cat running shout the tint with a'l its fur clipped off. He was inLrmed that the fur had been cufc off and roa&ted, and then applied to ■Strausa'e child's chest as a remedy for brorcbiti«. Dr Pern, the ptu-cipil uaedicti! cffic?r,WßS sent for to see a child il! in one of the tents, Wbeu he p-fitored the tent, for some moments he could not mak;» out what he saw. Ha tin n discovered that the parents had killed a goaf and cut it open, r< mov ing all the internal organs. They had put the child bodily inside the goat, with its head alone protruding through =h3 opening m»de by removing the breastbone, . A favourite Boer remedy for jaundice is to rub the patient's body with cabbage seeds. The seeds are then sown. Wbeu they come up the jaundice disappeaie. The tooth o£ ahorse wura on a string round the r.eck ia believed to care rheumatism. A pieco of potato, put into each ear, and a necklftco made of square pieces of <-he same, ia srid to cure earache. Toolhaoe in cured by catting the finger and toe-nails of tha sufferer oS short. | These parings are put into a bottle with a lock of hia hair and eorae water. The bottle is then corksd and buried, and the toothache disappears, A black fowl opeaed and applied hot and bleed ing to the chest is a care for inflamma tion of the iungs. It is not surprising to learn from Dr Franks's report, when one realises the I extent of our humanity to our foes, that in the camps themselves there is no complaining.

Comparison is the only true test o£ excellence, aud the reason for the exfcraf ordinary success of this preparation is that) It haa been proved to be the BEST OF ALL BEMBDIBS for the complaints it professes to deal with.
