munity is extended to the bereaved
family in their hour of deepest sor-
row.

Russians into Hungary, to afford them

Russians into Hungary, to afford them
relief.
Russia has been sending Cossack
raiding parties through the Carpathi-
ans with the object of diverting Aus
tria's attention, but the dual monarchy
seemingly is determined to finish with
Servia first
This, however, is only small af-
fair compared with what is going on In
north Poland There the German ar
my, which with the aid of reinforce
ments. succeeded in escaping from the
ring the Russians had forced around
it, has formed new front and at
some points has resumed the offensive.
The Germans assert that in this series
of maneuvers by which they were able
to check the Russians, they made So
600 prisoners.
The Russians, on the other hand, in
statement issued through Rome, say
their captures greatly exceed this num-
ber All agree that the losses have
been very heavy and that the battle is
still indecisive, as it probably will be
for some days.
For a moment the allies are some
what disappointed that the realization
of a great Russian victory is denied
them. They take some consolation in
the fact that the German attempt to
pierce the Russian lines has failed and
that, suffering from heavy losses, the
Germans are compelled to weaken
their armies elsewhere.
The Russian report tonight says that
the fighting has lost some of its vio
lence and indicates some progress for
the Russian troops south of Lodz. II
is unofficially reported that the Rus
SLAMS are nearly in Cracow."

The decisive blow was to
be struck against the French repub-

1t was not Russian despotism that
was to be crushed, but French re-

fact that before the clash OF arms is
fairly begun the Austrian invasion
of Servia is practically abandoned.

Germany and Austria are left alone
to fight the battle of autocracy and
pay the bill in blood and treasure
and prestige. In this war they
have no sympathizers even among
ncutrals. The enlightened opinion
of the whole world has turned against
the two kaiscrs as II turned against
Napoleon III. when he sought to
make himself the autocrat of Eu-

What was begun hastily as a war
of autocracy is not unlikely to end
as a war of revolution, with thrones
crumbling and dynasties in exile.
Civilization cannot rest at the mercy
of despo,ism, and the welfare OF
mankind is not to be made the play

These TyphoA Cultures.

Typhoid fever is a elf-limlted
disease. By this it is meant that if
the patient does not die during the
progress of the disease the body re-
acts against the invading micro-or-
ganisms with the production of the
various antlbodies, known as ag-
glutinins, opsonins, ETC., and these
anti-bodies limit the disease to a
variable number of weeks, after
which the person RECEIVERS and the

Marasmus.

Marasmus is 4 wasting disease
that occurs in babies, generally in
their first year. Without any dis.
coverable cause, a child with mar
asmus not only fails to gain, but
begins to lose weight slowly but
steadily. At the same time, the
bones continue to grow, and the
teeth come at the usual time. The
poor child takes on a distressing
appearance; he becomes almost a
living skeleton, although sometimes
the abdomen is distended.
The child is always hungry be.
cause it is starving. 1t cannot as
simulate any food and Is as hungry
a few minutes after eating as it was
before. 1t cries most of the time,
with a fretful, whining cry. Some
times a very small baby will sleep
necessarily instead of crying. That
is on the whole unfortunate, for a
crying child is likely to get treat
uent more promptly.
Although marasmus is met with
occasionally in well-to-do families,
it usually attacks arti6cially-fed in
fants in charitable institutions, and
it is very rare among breast.fed
children anywhere. Each case OF
marasmus must be carefully studied,
for treatment that cures one child
quickly often has no effect on an.
other. Many cases respond to q
breast-milk diet. Some begin to
recover when alkalies are added to
the diet In any event, the parents

Apart from its feeding, the 1dt1s-
mic child needs the greatest care.
Owing to his extreme emaciation,
bedsores often form; consequently,
the baby's position should be chang
ed frequently, and he should be
kept perfectly clean. The child
must be kept warm, but he also
needs a great deal of fresh air both
day and night, and it is q good
plan to keep him IN the open all the
time, and let him sleep ON a bal.

avoid chilling the little bsAys how
