ALLIES PREPARE
FOR Bic DRIVE
Have Been Assembling MI
nitions in Vast Quantities
For Great Struggle.


Paris. France, March 16.-Prepara-
tons on a vast scale are now being
completed preliminary TO the offensive
which France, England and Belgium
are pref airing to inaugurate against
Germany. This offensive drive will
have for its object the driving Of the
Germans back into their country, and
il is scheduled to start as soon as the
ground dries and becomes sufficiently
firm for heavy movements Of artillery
Plans have been made for drive Of
sustained power lasting two or three
months and involving the expenditure
OF great amoUnts Of ammunition Of all
kinds.
Thousands Of Trucks Gathered.
It appears likely that the French ar
tlllery has a store Of $4,000 600 shells.
A long and rapid pursuit could not be
sustained with the railways torn W
behind retreating armies without ade-
quate automobile transport For this
reason the French and British have
gathered tens Of thousands OF automo
bile trucks All the machines in
procession OF new automobile trucks
seen on country road this week were
American built. -Four hundred were
counted in one line. It is understood
mat English and French army orders
in America for auto trucks amounts to
upwards of $50 0O0 0OO
The 100 divisions OF French troops
OF 10000 each, have been brought up
TO beyond the full war strength so that
regiments OF 5000 men on a regular
war footing frequently have $500 men.
Not only has all the wastage been re-
paired, but considerable additions have
been made TO the full strength
British Forces Increase.
The British troops now on this side
Of the channel are said TO number
10000 and they are reported 10 have
been coming over during recent weeks
at the rate Of one or two army corps
a week Some weeks 100000 men have
crossed the channel
Gen Joffre is reported TO have asked
that the number of beds in the hospi-
tails IN Paris be doubled in preparation
FOR the forward movement All the
boys schools I'm the city are TO be
taken Immediately for hospitals. The
French sanitary corps now has 100
hospital trains fully equipped. Each
train can transport 500 seriously
wounded, so that the hospital train
capacity is now $4,000. The exact
number OF automobile ambulances at
the front is unknown, but there are
several thousand.

MASON AND DlXON'S LINE"
Popular Misapprehension as to Mean
ing OF Term and Just What the
Phrase Implied.

Very incorrect is the general belief
that Mason and DiNon's line, as orig
inally laid OF. divided the slave-hold'
ing states from the free states. on
the contrary. II ran for one-third OF
its whole length between Maryland
and Delaware. both of which were
slave-holding states at the time. The
line was rI-l purely to settle bound
AIRY dispute between Pennsylvania.
Maryland and Delaware
All the same, the actual Mason and
DiNon's line was as much synonym
for trouble and dissension in its day
as was the figure OF speech to which
in after years it gave rise And the
phrase will hold bitter meaning To
some until tin that looked-for day OF
charity to all mem shall be fulfilled

ALL SEEK FOR HAPPINESS
The One Thing for Which Mankind
May Be Said to Have a Univer-
sal Desire.

We cannot pick and choose the
happenings of life any more than we
can select the circumstances of our
birth and death; we are but creatures
of wonderful destiny directed by
the Almighty. 1t is said that many
tragedies of life might be averted If
we took our medicine like men" and
did not put our personal happiness
above everything else. 1t is as nat
ural and TO be expected to long for
happiness and cling to IL as for the
flowers TO turn TO the sun. Happiness
is the great lamp of life which lights
our way through all sorts of shad-
ows-shadows that blur the vision
and make long nights of our days,
shadows that terrify by their gro
tesque shapes and threatening as
poets. and shadows that bury in their
depths much that We hold most dear.
We are Jealous OF FOUR happiness and
guard IL as the most precious thing
in life and when we watch il go down
the long aisles of memory further
and further away from our yearning
eyes we begin to plead for it, and
strive for IL. and fight for It, We
batter the walks OF the past in ouI
vain efforts TO call II back before II
is too late. and spend long days anC
waste precious strength in the futile
endeaVor to clutch II back 10 oul
hearts. And all the while perhaps
right at our hands within easy reach
happiness in new guise stands ready

1t is true that nature and woman's

for woman's ills that the world has

herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham,
forty years ago, gave to womankind

has proved more efficacious than any

from coast to coast as the standard
