BORDEAUX, Sept. 2S.


The positive declaration that the
flank of the German right wing has
been turned and that Won Kluk's army
is in danger of being cut off, was made
by the War Office today. 1t was stated
that while reinforcements are being
rushed to his rescue from Belgium they
will not be able to alter the situation.
They will not be able to prevent the
German right being encircled and
forced either to retreat in haste to-
ward Belgium or meet an attack from
all sides by an army of vastly superior
force
The British and French columns now
outnumber the Germans two TO one in
the western section Of the line. There
are more than 100000 French and
British engaged in the battle along the
entire front. and nearly half that num-
ber held in reserve should they be
needed.
Although the fighting in the neigh
borhood of Rheims continues without
interruption, it Is stated the French are
now occupying a much better position.
They resisted German assault IN

R.ar,anoe Furniture Often.

In some houses one enters the ar
of the furniture never va
ries from year to year. In other houses
the furniture is changed about every
week or two. 1t may be easily Judged
which practice is the more agreeable
and refreshing for all concerned. One
woman is on record who actually stuck
pins in the carpet on sweeping days to
for the maid the exact spots
where feet of tables and chairs must be
set again when the room was finished.
This was going to extremes. but there
are many people who are Just as mar
row and prejudiced In their ideas. II
is good thing to change furniture
about. 1t gives the relief Of variety
and often increases our appreciation
of the beauty OF some particular piece.
Furthermore. the Encouragement Of fur
niture helps to develop the quality OF
resourcefulness and discourages NAP
row prejudice.

Cure For laxinsss.

Are you lazy? All right Wear
something red and become full Of en-
ergy.
Are you feeling blue because Of the
Indictment weather? Don't worry. but
put on something red.
The American Association For the
Study Of spondylatherapy whatever
that means) at their annual meeting
recently gave out new cure for lazi-
ness. The cure is to wear something
red.
The idea is this: The society has
come to the conclusion that certain col
ors work on mans nerves to such an
extent that they control his deatiny.
For instance, a person who sleeps In
room papered in white Is calm,-and
collected. Likewise the man who
wears a green eyeshade. The green
has a certain effect on the retina.
which in turn communicates the color
to the brain. the result being that the
eyes are soothed. and consequently the
whole body is ut peace with the world.

to arouse any one wearing 1t.

of the breaking off Of close personal
