Monastir Not Occupied
British casualties, military and
naval from the beginning of the war
to November 8. last, totaled 510,230,
Premier Asquith announced to-day.
The naval casualties were 1850. OF
the total 10S,923 were killed. 6,940 of
these being officers.
Apparently the Bulgarians have not
occupied Monastir in Southern Serbia,
although its evacuation by the Ser
bians were reported several days ago.
More recent reports declare Serbian
forces are still in the city. The Bull
garians, according to Athens advices
are supposed to be waiting for rein
lforcements.
Arrival of further reinforcements
for the Bulgarians before the French
front in Southern Serbia is reported
from Athens.
Artillery exchanges continue on the
Franco-Belgian front, but with les
sened intensity, the French war office
reports state.

Germans Cannot See
, Why Allies Do Not Start
Peace Negotiations

Berlin, Dec. 2. - (By Wireless to
Sayville) Commenting on the pro-
posed Socialist Interpretation in the
Reichstag concerning the conditions
upon which Germany would make
peace, the Overseas News Agency
says:
This Interpolation is due to the
fact that in Germany nobody under
stands why our enemies, after diplo-
matte defeats in the Balkans coupled
with military failures, have not yet
begun peace negotiations. The I'M
perial Chancellor, DR.. Won Bethmann-
Hollweg, probably will discuss these
possibilities in the Reichstag during
one of the next few days. Ensuing
debates will likely show that the
rulers of countries at war with Ger
many, still blinded, believe in Ger
many's starvation, her economic pros
tration and in similar illusions. There
fore any peace conditions put forward
by Germany though dictated by her
successes along all fronts, would be
interpreted by the nations opposed to
her as signs of weakness and weari-
ness of war"

Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help. else they
suffer from constipation. The condi-
ton is perfectly natural. 1t is just as
natural as 1t is for old people to

active as youth. The muscles are less
elastic. And the bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets.

the bowels into activity. But a lash
