London.-A dispatch to the Reuter-
Telegraph Co. from Antwerp, reach

mans to enyelop the left wing OF the
allies has been frustrated.
A big force of German cavalry ad-
vancing on Compeign has been Wig

several pieces of artillery, the dis
patch states.
London.-That Amiens and La
Fere have fallen, that the allies
have fallen back toward the south
west to avoid an engagement under
unfavorable conditions, and that fight
ing is still in progress along the
whole line OF the front of the allied
armies is about all that is known to
the public here Of the struggle by
which the allies are seeking to hold
back the German attempt to reach
Paris.
Even the extent to which the allies
have retreated Is not told, but as
surance is given that their lines still
hold and in no case have the Ger
mans succeeded In breaking through.
From the insufficient information
which thus has been given to the
British public, the military experts
piece out this bit of encouragement.
That the German armies have beep
pounding for days at the allies lines
and only succeeded in driving them
back, gradually, still intact; and that
II this defense can be continued, the
Germans, even though they force the
allies back on Paris, will have worn
themselves out with the continuous
offensive. and will not be prepared
for the task which confronts them
after the outer Notifications Of the
city have been reached.
The preparations for the defense
Of Paris, from which President Poin-
care and the government have moved,
continue. Hundreds OF thousands OF
men are throwing up entertainments
to supplement the permanent forti-
fcations. Dispatches from Paris say
that only two of the city's gates re-
main open, the Porte Maillot, on the
northwest, and the Port de Bercy,
on the southwest. They are strongly
barrtcaded and guarded.
Paris dispatches indicate that the
Germans are throwing all possible
weight on the allies left, stretched
out from point just south of Mont
didier to Boyne and Noyon. For As
hours the German cavalry has been
engaged with the British and French
cavalry in the neighborhood OF Com
peigne and scissors. The line OF the
allies is strongly entrenched and has
heavy artillery and machine gun sup
port. The Germans, Il is admitted
by the allies. have received heavy

The war, he said, had armed faith

In the course OF a reception OF lay

for the genius OF its people. which

ably go down in history as the
worlds greatest battle. 1t was fought
by the German and Austrian troops
against the vast armies OF Russia
that have been steadily poundue

a check to her troops, but says It

all sides along a battle line that zig-

Thousands of men were killed and

The most wonderful, It might al
most be said spiritual, attribute Of
flowers Is neither their beauty OF color
or form nor their fragrance, but,
strangely enough, a mysterious radi-
ance that, like the aureola which art
lists represent as radlating from the
heads OF apostles or Of angels, some
times surrounds them. writes ]. Car
ter Beard. 1t is strange that this
flower is so little known and so sell
dom noticed.
The best time to watch for and to
witness the emission of flower-flre is
Just after sunset Of warm day, when
the atmosphere is perfectly dry and
clear. On the contrary, II the air is
dense or the day has been rainy,
nothing Of the kind can be seen. The
light emitted from flowers is some
times continuous, but, oftener, per-

OWE DEBT TO ROWLAND HILL
English Statesman Was the First to
Recognize Possibilities Of the
Postage Stamp.

The adhesive postage stamp had Its
origin in England "a years ago as a
direct outcome OF the postal reforms
introduced by Sir Rowland Hill, whose
master mind created not only the in
estimable boon OF penny postage. but
the means by which II was carried
into eiIect-the adhesive postage
stamps. says the Strand. At the time
OF the passing Of the uniform penny
postage act In 1899 all postal charges
were paid in cash usually on deliv-
ery), involving an enormous amount
OF bookkeeping on the part OF the
post Office, which would have been in
creased a hundredfold when the re-
duced rates OF postage came into force
but for the suggestion OF the great
postal Teformer for "a bit OF paper
Just large enough TO bear the stamp,
and coated at the back with a glutin-
Gus wash" being subsequently en-.
bodied In the famous one-penny black
postage label and It's consort, the two
pence blue. which made their debut
in May. 1910. and we're the progeni-
tors OF all adhesive postage stamps.
For three short years Great Britain
enjoyed monopoly OF this novel and
handy method Of collecting postages.
until. in July. 1s43. the enlightened
empire OF Brazil followed suit with n
series OF unpreposse sessing adhesive In
