EAST PRUSSIA
SOldau and Neidenburg Fall
and Russian Left Wing ADJ
yances to Take Allenstein.
6Y FRANCIS lAvELLE MURRAY

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 25.-Tha
occupation of Soldau. and Neidenburgj
two important cities of East Prussia.
by Russian troops was announced to-
day by the general staff. 1t was stated
that they had been taken after five
days fighting.
The movement eliminating in the
fall of Soldau and Neidenburg indi-
Gates that the Russian left wing in
Prussia is attempting an attack on
Allentstein from the southwest. With
Allenstein in their hands or safely in
vested. the Russians would be able to
press on toward Berlin.
The Russian forces invading East
Prussia are in two main divisions
known as the Warsaw army, and the
Wilma army. The latter first took the
initiative against the Germans, and
attacked them along their entire front.
The result was indecisive until the
Warsaw army swept around the Ger
mans right flank and attacked them
in the rear.
This sudden blow the general staff
fusion and forced them to abandon
their position at Mauer Lake and fall
back upon Allenstein.
The credit for the Russian victories
in East Prussia is due to General Suk-
holmniloff. the minister of war. Ever
since he has accepted a place in tho
cabinet he has been striving to perfect
the Russian army and his success 10
evidenced by the rapidity with which
mobilization was affected.
The spirit of the army Is altogether
different from that shown by the Rus
sian troops in the Russo-Japanese war.
The plan of campaign against the
Austrians in Galicia will probably be
similar to that adopted in East Prus-
STA. One Russian army has already
| reached Rava, near Lemburg. another
| is advancing from the southeast.
1t was announced today that Grand
Duke Michael, the Cars brother. had
returned from abroad and would leave
| for the front Immediately.

A Simple Way TO
Remove Dandru:1
Prevent Falling Hair and End itching
Scalp.

There is one sure way that has new
er failed to remove dandruff at once.
and that is to dissolve it, then you de-
stroy it entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces OF plain, common
liquid arvon from any drug store
this is all you will NEEDY apply it at
night. when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gent
ly with the finger tips.
BY morning, most If not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three OF
four more applications will complete
ly dissolve, and entirely destroy, ev-
cry single sign and trace of it, no mat
ter how much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly and
your hair will be fluffy. lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and
feel a hundred times bettel.
II you value your hair. you should
get rid of dandruff at once, for moth
ing destroys the hair so quickly. It
not only starves the hair and makes
it fall out, but it makes it stringy,
straggly, dull, dry, brittle and lifeiess,
and everybody notices it.

Making Sensations In Iowa.

Cedar Rapids Republican: The Des
Moines Register and Leader has been
compelled to publish corrections on
behalf of every man 1t dragged into
the recent sensational Ames article.
Professor Kennedy replied that he
had been misquoted by the paper and
Roaer Leavitt, one Of the members o.
the board, showed that he had been
quoted through a letter written
long before the little matter Of disci-
pine at Ames came up. The Des
Moines paper simply tried to start
something at the agricultural college
for the sake of getting at the state
board of education, or some members
of it whom 1t does not like. MT.
Leavitt shows that the board has been
a unit in standing back Of President
Pearson in his determination to have
a college without cltques or factions,
with professors as we'll as students
under one discipline. The newspaper
meddlers ought to spare the state in
situations at least. They can write
