WAR CLOUDS STILL GATHERING

The chief development within the
last day or two in the European wal
situation is the action of Japan in de.
livering to Germany her stern ultI'
matum demanding that Germany with
draw her war vessels from far eastern
waters and also the restoration o.
certain japanese territory claimed by
Germany. The German goyernm eat is
given until Sunday, August 23rd to
comply with the request. 1t hardly
stands to reason that Germany will
accede to the demands of Japan and in
that event Japan will be drawn into
the contest.
No great battle has been fought
thus far. The attack by the Germans
on the Belgian city Of Liege has been
the most important engagement and
the fOrtreSSeS of the city thus far seem
to be holding firm against the attach
and as long as they stand the advance
of the German army through Belgium
will be retarded. The combined armies
of both sides seem to be concentrating
along the border between Germany
and France, and it is expected that the
great deciding battle of the war will be
fought at an early hour in this locality.
All the principal nations of Europe are
aligned on one side or the other,
Italy being about the only power try
ing to maintain her neutrality. On
the one side are aligned Germany and
Austria, while on the opposite side are
England, France, Belgium, Servia,
Russia and it may be said Japan also.

Some of these dusty diggers after fam

found mother-in-law jokes i'll cunei-
form inscriptions. That may not be
true, but nobody can deny the fact
that there were mothers-in-law in the
days when men wrote their letters
and they were doubtless as prominent
in domestic affairs then as now. Yes,
know it's the present that's bOthering
you now, but | just wanted to show
you that you haven't butted into an
entirely new proposition, as you seem
to think. Why, even your mother had
some relatives when | married her,
and good many of them have the
temerity to be alive yet. l am rather
glad of it, too, because | have become
as much attached to them as to my
own blood kin, and there are one or
two in particular that I'd feel mighty
lonesome without. There's your Grand
mother Larson, for instance. Why, my
dear boy, l don't know how many
times that blessed woman has pulled
me back from the pearly gates by her
nursing, and | have mighty distinct
recollection that she helped you over
the rough places more than once.
