Rear Guard Actions Only.

London, Oct. 1l.-Serbian forces,
following up the same lines they pur-
sued successfully months since, are re-
firing from the fallen city Of Belgrade
toward the mountains. There, it is re-
garded likely, they viii make stand
against the Teuton invaders. but
whether they will be able to hurl them
back with the terrific slaughter which
marked the previous battle IT is con
sidered doubtful. The Teutons are
throwing heavy forces into the pursuit,
and undoubtedly win profit from their
other costly experience.
Rear guard actions are preceding,
but big engagement is not tntici-
pated for some days. The allies con
tinue to land forces for Serbia 's aid,
and are pushing them forward as
rapidly as possible.
Allies representatives are trying to
induce Greece to answer definitely re-
garding her future course toward the
Serbian. .Grecian alliance. Meantime
however, she is maintaining her posi-
ton Of "benevolent neutrality"
Two city districts were wrecked en-
tirely in the Austro.German capture OF
Belgrade. Six thousand shells were
thrown into the city. From Belgrade
the Teutons pushed steadily on, all re
ports indicated, but authorities hope
that Serbian claims Of victory on thu
Drina are true. Germany, however
denied them.

HERE'S NEW VIGoR FOR
oVERWoRKED SToMACHS
( = y x y * 4 Il 4 * 4 Il y x \

Daniel j. Fry, the popular druggist
has been in the drug business long
enough to have his own opinion of the
best way of selling medicines. He says
the plan adopted by Mi-o-na, the great
dyspepsia remedy, is the fairest he has
ever heard Of. He doesn't believe that
a medicine ought to be paid for unless
it does the user some good. And Mi-o-
ma is sold under a positive guarantee
to relieve dyspepsia or to refund the
money. You simply leave so cents on
deposit with Daniel J. Fry and if, after
you have used the box of Mi-o-na you
decide that it has done you no good, all
you have to do is to tell him SO and he
will return your money.
Hundreds of people have been relieved
of stomach agonies by using this re-
markable remedy. 1t is not simply a
food digester; it is a medicine that puts
all of the digestive organs into normal
condition and gives ruddy, glowing, Wig
orous health. A change for the better
will be seen after the first few doses
of Mi-o.na, and its continued use will
soon give the power to cat anything at
any time and not suffer distress after
ward.
Mi-ona is sold under a positive guar
antee to refund the money if it does
not cure. This is the strongest proof
that can be offered as to the merit of
the medicine.
Nothing lessons mans success in
his work or a woman S fascinating per
sonality more than weak stomach
with its attending evils, Use Mi-o-na

'You care lot about me, you men of Georgia, now that I am dead. You have spent thousands of dollars try ing to learn who mutilated my body. You have filled the columns of your newspapers with the story of my wrong. You have broken into pris- on and murdered a man that might be avenged. But why did you not care for me when was alive? l was but a child, yet you shut me out of the daylight. You shut me within four darks walls, watching a machine that crashed through the air racking my already overstrained woman's nerves. Noise was all over the place noise, dust and the smell of oil. I wish some of the thousands of dol lars that you spent on the trial might have been spent on me. I could have went to school with but pittance of it. A real school, the kind you build for the rich. I worked through the hot August days, when you were picnicking, or shooting birds, or boat ing; and you never paid me enough to buy a pretty dress. You some times spoke coarsely to me when l went to and from my work. Yes, you did, and I had to pretend I liked it. WHY did you use me so hard while l was living and yet love me so now?

The Faust Legend.

For 1,4OO years the Faust legend the sale of a human soul to devil has existed. The first recorded hint of it's vitality is given in the sixth cen tury story of 'Theophilus." That story suited the early Christians in their eff. forts to stamp out the necromancing devices of evilly disposed persons prone to seek power by unholy means. The association of the name of Faust, how ever, with the legend is not more than 400 years old. The likeliest prototype of the modern Faust is the man of the same name who in Cracow boldly pro- claimed himself professor of magic. In the sixteenth century stories Helen of Troy was bestowed by Mephisto- pheles upon Faust, and not until the middle of the eighteenth century does there appear shadowy Margaret in the form of "beautiful but poor girl, '' who afterward develops into the Mar garet of Goethe.
