The London correspondent of the "Post," writing on June 23, says that Lieutenant Ronald Gray, R.F.A., Wellington, another of the British officers wounded in the severe lighting oast of Ypres, had been passed as convalescent, and was able to walk with some difficulty. Lieutenant Gray states that the gas was so strong whore he was that the artillery, although stationed 5000 yards behind the trenches, had to make use of their respirators. Another New Zealandcr, a surgeon, who had been on leave (Lieutenant C. J. A. Griffin), says the fumes from the lines east of Ypres affected the eyes and throats of soldiers at Vlamertinghe, which is at least four miles from the German lines. Togother with the 12th Lancers, the Scots Greys were the first regiment to bo specially mentioned in dispatches during the present war by Sir Jehn French. At German military manoeuvres every officer is given a command higher than that to which his rank entitles him. NO COLD IS "NAZOL" PROOF! No delay or bother with this honest cough and cold remedy—"NAZOL." Complete in itself and ready for instant use. 60 doses 1/6. —.5
