A correspondent sends the following from northeastern France: “The great
bayonet charge by the Zouaves near Bixschoote, of which you have already
heard, was a particularly gruesome affair, for the Zouaves, like the
Gurkhas, love the joy of a hand-to-hand battle. And it came at the end
of three days of constant fighting.
“They charged a wood, an officer told me, like a gale of wind, not
giving a cry till they got within touch; then they let out yell upon
yell as they plied their bayonets among the dripping trees.
“The enemy mostly were first-line men, and met them like heroes, firing
in volleys once or twice, then leaping out to the combat. The impetus of
the Zouaves carried them through. They did not stop to kill. They dashed
through the first time, killing only as they went, then they charged
back on the broken lines.
“There were hand-to-hand struggles until ten o’clock that ended with
both sides falling on the ground, exhausted. Four of the Germans,
fighting together, gave a terrible account of themselves before they
died. Three of the four were, I think, brothers, and they were brave
soldiers.”

Tobacco Habit
BANISHED in
48 to 72 Hours
]
No craving for tobacco in any form after the first dose.
Don’t try to quit the tobacco habit unaided. It’s a losing fight against
heavy odds and means a serious shock to the nervous system. =Let the
tobacco habit quit YOU=. It will quit you, if you will just take =Tobacco
Redeemer=, according to directions, for two or three days. It is the most
marvelously quick and thoroughly reliable remedy for the tobacco habit
the world has ever known.
Not a Substitute
=Tobacco Redeemer= is absolutely harmless and contains no habit-forming
drugs of any kind. It is in no sense a substitute for tobacco. After
finishing the treatment you have absolutely no desire to use tobacco
again or to continue the use of the remedy. It quiets the nerves, and
will make you feel better in every way. It makes not a particle of
difference how long you have been using tobacco, how much you use or in
what form you use it--whether you smoke cigars, cigarettes, pipe, chew
plug or fine cut or use snuff. =Tobacco Redeemer= will positively banish
every trace of desire in from 48 to 72 hours. This we absolutely
guarantee in every case or money refunded.
