SYMPTOMS OF DEBILITY.

People who are tired all Of the time
and never feel rested even after long
night in bed, who cannot regain weight
and strength, whose step lacks elastici-
ty and who feel no joy in living, are
delbitated.
A medical examination might easily
show that every organ of the body is
acting. normally but the pallor of the
face will usually show that the blood is
thin. This is the root of the trouble.
Debility is loss of vitality, not af-
fecting any one part of the body but
the system generally. The blood goes
to every part of the body and the use
Of a blood tonic like DR.. Williams Pink
Pills quickly tones up the system. The
first sign of returning health is a bet
ter appetite, improved digestion, a
quicker step, brighter eyes, better color
in the cheeks. The rich, red blood,
reaching every organ and muscle, car
ries renewed health and vigor. The
nerves are quoted. sleep becomes more
refreshing and with persistent treat
ment and proper living the debilitated
patient is once more enabled to enjoy
life.
Two useful books, Building Up the
Blood and What to Eat" will be sent

ON NEUTRAL ZONE

Berlin, Sept. 2s.-(By wireless to Say.
vile. N. Y).-The Overseas News Agency
says that. according to reliable infor.
ration. Bulgaria and Greece have agreed
upon the establishment Of neutral zone
between these two countries. The sug-
Eestion Of neutral zone, the news
agency says, was made by the members
of the Greek general staff who acted in
concert with King Constantine. The
Overseas News Agency adds:
Bulgaria agreed. and there is nc
doubt that she is ready to yield to Greek
wishes about the Serbian territories OF
DORA and Gevgeti. This means that the
attempts Of the Entente allies powers
have been frustrated.
English and French officers have been
in Saloriki in order to prepare for the
landing Of Anglo-French troops. Greece.
for the time being, is determined to main-
tain neutrality even in the face of the
threat to land troops"

ALLIED DASH SEEMS TO REMAIN

and Sunday MANY PRISONERS

How 1t happened that so many I'M
wounded Germans were captured is puz-
zling the public of this country and
France.
This Is the SD birthday of Field Mar
shall Sir John French. The people are
not expecting it to be signalized by any
marked fresh advance so soon after the
gains already achieved. but these accom-
plishments have called forth particularly
cordial CONGRATULATIONS for the British
commander. The fighting In the east
still favors the Russians on the southern
end Of the line, although there is no con-
firmation of the report that they have
reached the important railway junction
of Kovel. The most momentous strug-
gle is still centered on Dvinsk. where it
is said the Germans are re-grouping
their forces preparatory to another great
blow.
Bulgaria, though she has modified her
troops, has not made her next move any
clearer

Petrograd, Sept. e, via London, 2.15
p. M-While the Russians have had
a series of important tactical success
es along almost the entire front, mil
itary authorities here lay stress upon
the greater success of the French and
English in their new campaign, esti-
mating that the equivalent of three
German army corps have been there
by thrown out of active service by
Russias western allies. The authori-
ties expect that the Anglo-French in
itiative will spoil the German plans
both as regards Russia and Serbia.
The Russians have made gains of
ground at several points which ordin-
arily would be regarded as consider
able. but they are not allowing their
attention to be distracted from Dvinsk,
which the Germans continue to attack
with energy and the Russians to de-
fend with equal determination. Small
German gains in the last fighting were
neutraized by splendid trench work

BERLIN. DEEMS
DASH OF ALLIES
ALREADY FAILED

Berlin. Sept. 28.-(By Wireless to
Sayville, N. Y.)-"The general attack
of the British and French along the
western front is considered here to
have failed already" says the Over
seas News Agency. There is no pos
sibility that the enemy will break
through the German lines in view of
the length Of the front, which is 500
kilometres (310 miles,.
1t is to be expected that the Ger
mans have suffered losses but the fig
ure Of 10000 prisoners given by the
French and British is believed here
to be exaggerated. At all events the
enemy's attack has now failed, since
the German front is being held firmly

during the night following. by which
the Russians were able to confront
their adversaries in the morning will
a strong front. The numbers OF deac
on the field attested the seriousness
of the German losses. ~
The German operations in the di.
rection of Riga are regarded here as
demonstrations intended to interfere
with the reinforcement of the Russian
positions at Dvinsk with troops from
the Riga region.
The general impression created by
the latest reports from this front is
that the Russians are fighting bril-
liantly, steadily and confidently, and
that their supplies of ammunition are
being delivered in adequate quantities
while the Germans apparently lack
the force to. execute their sweeping
plans. The authorities here direct at
tention to certain details in the re-
ports as indicating that the German
efforts are becoming spasmodic.

LONDON, Sept. 2s.-Q0S P. M).-The
French are now battering the second line
of German defences in Champagne, While
the British. to their north, apparently
lhave been able to crush all German
counter-attacks. So far as can be ascer-
'tained, the situation on the western
front as created by the allied offensive
of Saturday and Sunday is about where
1t was. The diversion initiated by the
German crown prince in the Argonne at
some places reached the first French
line. but nowhere did the Germans break
through.
While German prisoners are arriving in
france by the trainload, British wounded
from Flanders are beginning to reach
London. All have the same story to tell.

of the Allies, before which it seemed inn
possible that anyone could survive, and
