Soon Resuming Offensive.

London, Sept. 2.-Except in the
region of Riga, where the Russians
are presenting formidable front To
Won Hindenburg,. the Austro- &C erman
offensive again is making headway
and the Russian troops have resum-
ed their four months retreat.
Grodno's Swestern forts were evac-
uated after two were destroyed by
heavy guns and stormed by the in
fantry and 1t Is considered very like
ly that the whole fortress already has
been left to it's fate, for it was no

penetrated the forest of Bieloviezh
to the southeast of the town.
wilma, doubtless, will be the next
objective OF the Austro-Germans on
this front.
SUCCESS IN SOUTHEAST.
In the southeast Vienna reports
series Of successes. which virtually
have driven the Russians out of
Galicia. They now hold only very
narrow strip between the Sereth
river and Besserabia. Across the
border in the latter province, the
Austrians state. the Russians set fire
to villages. which might indicate n
further retreat. Thus the hopes
raised in the allied countries by re-
cent successes that Russia at least
was making a stand have been dissi-
pated. ~
Everywhere the Austro- Germans
claim to be advancing. but they have
not captured OF late any great num-
ber of men or guns. The Russian
guns have been kept we'll behind the
infantry and are quickly moved back
when the rearguards are unable
longer to hold of the invaders.
On the western front the Germans
claim to have recovered trences lost
in August in the Vosges. while the
French refer only To artillery engage
ments.
ACTIVITY IN DARDANELLES.
Increased activity at the Darda-
nelles is shown in Official reports.
Besides their success in capturing an
important position dominating a
Turkish line of communication, the
British have sunk four more Turkish
transports in the straits, while the
fire of the ships across Gallipoli pen
insula has made Turkish troop move
ments by either land or sea more
difficult.
According to the Turks. mine
sweepers have been busy at the en-
trance of the straits. suggesting that
an attack is contemplated by the al
lies from another direction.
A Rome dispatch says the Aus
trians have evacuated Bovereto,
which recent Italian advances had
threatened to cut off. An official re-
port from the same capital claims
successes on different fronts.

 She touched her red lips with the tip of her forefinger. opened her hands and shrugged her shoulders with a sad gesture of regret. Then turning quickly to some paper on the table at her side she wrote something with a gold pencil and handed 1t to me. It read;
 Surely Providence has sent you here! MT. Woodroffe must have fol- lowed you from England. He is my enemy. You must take me from here and hide me. They intend to send me into exile. Have you ever been in Petersburg before? Do you know any one here?"

Pail Keeps Out Dirt.

loose dust can be easily brushed of with the hands before milking. Do not allow anyone to milk wet, as this is filthy practice.
 The COWS keep unsoiled on grass in night pasture, while if they are kept in a dry barnyard the loose, ry manure will stick to their udders and bodies and drop into the pail. If kept i'll the barnyard in rainy weather it is almost impossible to milk them with out first washing their udders.
 A covered pail closed about two thirds with hood, will keep out at least 75 per cent of the dirt. These pails are just as convenient to use as the ordinary ones, and cost little more.
 A strainer will not take out the fine sediment in milk, but is useful for taking out hair and other large for eign stuff and is good for detecting the dirty milker. One farmer uses strainer made from an ordinary IA quart tin dishpan. A five-inch hole Is cut in the center of the bottom. A ring two inches wide and of the same diameter as the hole is soldered on. over which another rings slips to hold the strainer cloth. Huck toweling makes very good strainer cloth. Such strainer covers a factory can,

FEW PRACTICAL DAIRY HINTS
Pure Food Laws Won't Worry If Only Clean, Wholesome Products Are
 Sent to the Markets.

When counting the by-products of the dairy, do not forget the skim milk allowed to clabber, of which the de- licious Dutch or cottage cheese is made. When not all is needed on the home table, it can readily be disposed of at good prices.
 Send out only clean, wholesome food products, then the pure food laws will have no worry for you.
 Don't feed lice, get rid of them. If the stock has been cleanly kept, there will be no lice to get rid of. Very seldom is COW or calf lousy when in good condition. Keep their stalls and premises clean, give wholesome feed and enough of it, and the COWS will not raise lice.
 A little corn or bran will not hurt the cows and will save many steps of getting up the COWS to milk. Don't forget the salt at the regular time. Grass requires more salt than did the dry feed of winter.
 Feed the calves enough to have them grassy, shaded lot, and unless sup piled naturally with water, be sure to keep some before them.
 Too rich feed may give the young calf indigestion. Guard against this. IS after once becoming out of fix, 1t is much harder to regulate. Keep them Yell and keep them growing. This Is rue of all young stock, the only way make a profit of it is to keep it rowing.

How Much Accidents Cost.

The actual number of workmen killed and injured annually in the Unit ed States is not known definitely. The best authorities. however. have esti- mated fatalities to the number of 49.- 900 to 45.000 annually. and nonfatal accidents producing an annual loss of 200.000.000 working days. Estimating the value to society of each man killed at $5.000, and $2 as an average daily wage of the non-fatally injured. the economic annual los sustained by the nation amounts to approximately S600.. 100000. This is the amount which. in some way or other, must be charged 60 the production cost in the various industries where the accidents oc- cured.

Records in Deep-Ses Divinq.

That deep diving is practical pro. cedure not accompanied by great dan ger when the proper precautions are taken seems to have been de non. strated by tests carried out by tue navy department during the fall of 1914 off the coast of New Eng!ar d. In these tests only such apparatus as is supplied with the diving outfits of all naval vessels was used About enc hundred dives were made, and al though great depths were reached. no mishaps or difficulties were eXperi- enced. One diver went to depth of 274 feet, and it is believed by the off cers in charge that a depth of 300 feet or more can be reached without seri- ous danger

At that time did not see the dastardly trap he had laid in order to get me out of the barons clutches and wiring from me my secret.

 There is one friend-a true friend Will you take note to herr" she wrote. to which I instantly nodded in the affirmative.
 Then rising. she obtained some ink and pen and wrote letter. the con. tents of which she did not show me before she sealed it.
 I watched her write the superscrip- tion upon the envelope: Madame Olga Stassulevitch. modiste, Scredni Pros pect, 231, Vasili Ostroff." I knew that the district was on the opposite side of the city, close to the Little Neva

 assured her I would not lose a single instant. and five minutes later was tearing down the Morskaya in a drosky along the canal and across the Nicholas bridge to the address upon the envelope.
