" ALL BRITISH " STEEL HELMETS A 6pecial correspondent at the British Headquarters has written to the 'Morning; Post' to say that "the new 'allBritish' steel helmet baved many lives during the recent fight for the 'Bluff north of the Ypres-Comines Canal. Its efficacy as a protection against shell and bullet wounds wa6 proven many times previously, but the decrease in casualties at the 'Bluff' due directly to this Hew plated head covering is worthy of special notice. I saw eight dented or pierced helmets to-day, th© wearers of which suffered no worse injury than Blight scalp wounds, and some escaped entirely. AH would have been killed had tliev worn an ordinary khaki cap. One helmet had been dented eight times by falling shrapnel, while a jagged twoinch hole in the crown marked the entry of a shell fragment which caused a flesh ■wound. Another bore a deep fissure Made by the butt of a German rifle during the hand-to-hand fighting in the captured trench. The wearer of the helmet was not oven stunned, and he was able to kill his antagonist. Still another had been dented by shrapnel unknown to the wearer. Several had been rut through by nieces of shells, but the net effect on the wearers was no greater than a, smart blow across the skull with a club. "The helmets arc of grey painted steel, rather like an inverted bowl in appearance, and far from beautiful, but their very simplicty adds to their effectiveness. The head, ears and neck are fullv protected. Soldiers call "them 'soup plates.' A company wearing helmets and gas masks is a fearsome spectacle." IT NEVER FAILS. Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Hemedv is all its name implies. It relieves diarrhoea and dysentery in either children or adults, and' the most violent eases of cramp, colic or pain in the Stomach give way to a few doses of this medicine. Tt never fails.
