GERMANS WALKED into TRAP
REPORT OF GENERAL FRENCH
TELLS OF ALLIES RUSE.

London, Sept. 15.-That trap was
set for the advancing Germans by the
allies and sprung when part of Gen
eral Won Kluck's forces walked into it
to the southeast of Paris is shown in
a report submitted by Field Marshal
Sir John French to Lord Kitchener,
just made public by the British Off
cial press bureau. The report covers
the movements of the British expedi-
tionary force from Sept. to 10 inclu-
sive.
Telling a story far different from
that of week ago, when he reported
the Britons in danger of complete an
Inhalation, from which they were saw
ed only through the valorous stand
of the troops under General Smith
Dorrien, General French's report tells
how the German sledge-hammer ad-
vance suddenly encountered a stone
wall.
The invaders, previously numeric-
ally stronger than the allies, met their
match and their sudden rush into
France was stopped short.
A few days of skirmishing for a
change of position, and the allies sud
denly leaped to the offensive, driving
the Germans northward toward the
frontiers which only a few days be-
fore they had crossed with rapid
rhythmic, swinging strides.
Field Marshal French reports that
the Britons held the invaders Sept. 8,
on the south of the river Marine. Be-
ing unable to advance further in that
direction toward Paris, the Germans
turned southeastward, Sept. 4, and met
little effective resistance until Sept. T.
On that day the whole allied line sud-
denly assumed the offensive Shortly
afterward the German retreat to the
northeast commenced.
General French pays a glowing trib-
ute to the work of the British aviation
corps, asserting that it has proved it's
superiority over the enemy in actual
work in the field.

LEARNING THINGS
We Are All in the Apprentice Glass.

When simple change Of diet brings

briefly told A lady of Springfield, Ill.,,
says:
After being afflicted for years with
nervousness and heart trouble, l re-
ceived a shock four years ago that left
me in such a condition that my life
was despaired Of.
Il got no relief from doctors nor
from the numberless heart and nerve
remedies l tried, because I didn't know
that coffee was daily putting me back
more than the doctors could put me
ahead.
Finally at the suggestion Of friend
left off coffee and began the use OF
Postum, and against my expectations /
gradually improved in health until for
the past 6 or s months have been
those terrible sinking, weakening
spells of heart trouble.
My troubles all came from the use
of coffee which I had drunk from
childhood and yet they disappeared
when quit coffee and took up the use
OF Postum" Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Many people marvel at the effects Of
leaving off coffee and drinking Postum,
but there Is nothing marvellous about
it-only common sense.
Coffee is a destroyer-Postum Is a
rebuilder. That's the reason.
Look in pkgs. for the famous little
book, THE Road to Wellville."
Postum comes in two forms:
Regular Postum-must be well boil

Cow Followed Compass.

A poor tiller of the soil had owned
for a number of years a valuable cow.
OF a sudden he began to find that the
beast always stood in her stall with
her tail toward the south where the
manger was, her head toward the
north. He tried various means Of
making the cow stand the other way,
her head to the south and her tail to
the north, but no matter how many
times he set her properly in her stall
she always turned around. Finally
there was nothing to do but rebuild
the stall to suit the cow. Somewhat
later war came and the poor tiller Of
the soil had to join his regiment and
go and fight for the fatherland. His
wife and children, reduced to dire pow
erty, were forced to self the cow to
the butcher, who slaughtered her and
sold her meat at famine prices to his
fellow townsmen. At the same time,
however, the mystery Of the animals
unaccountable behavior was cleared
up. In the body of the cow was found
a small compass which the poor man,
her owner, had lost some months be-
fore from his watch chain. Evidently
it had fallen among the hay and been
eaten

SKIN TROUBLE ON HANDS

Cassyille, Monty hands and feet
were affected with trouble similar to
ringworm for number of years. 1t
first appeared as tiny clear blisters
and in places the blisters were so
close together that they almost formed
one large blister. The skin was rough
and cracked open. At times it was
80 bad that it disabled me; my hands
became so sore that could scarcely
use them.
II used every remedy that I could
find but nothing seemed to do any
good. Finally sent for a sample of
Cuticura Soap and Ointment and
then got a cake OF Cuticura Soap and

completely rid me Of the trouble"
