London. Oct. 29-The Russians have
begun an active part in the war in the
Balkans by a vigorous bombardment
of Varna. The large fleet which ar
rived at that point is now pounding
the port vigorously and it is antici-
pated that 4 landing will be effected
at that point for a large army.
II is now known that France has
sent 100000 men to battle with the
Central powers in Serbia from the
southwest, and with the expected Rus
sian aid from the northeast the Serbs
may be relieved before being utterly
destroyed.
Unofficial reports from Greek
sources represent the situation in
southern Serbia as somewhat more ia
Vorable to the Entente allies.
A dispatch from Athens which has
not been confirmed, states that the
Bulgarians have withdrawn from Us
kup.
Advices from Saloniki tell Of fierce
battle along the Veles- X Komanovo front
with the Bulgarians retreating. Hope
is being revived in London that the
rs Will De aDlt 10 reform tntlf
lines along the Monastir front.
The Germans, having effected a june
tion with their Bulgarian allies, it is
possible. that the campaign will be
shifted from an effort to relieve Servia
10 an attempt to cut communications
with COnstantinople.
In this connection several critics
hazard the guess that the entente al
lies are not likely to withdraw from
Saloniki, no matter what happens to
Servia. !
Riga and Dvinsk remain the chief
German detectives ON the eastern front.
The direction of the German assault
against Riga may have changed.

uyHEN anyone is reading book
W what he is most anxious to
know is: Does it end happily?" We
dislike to read book which leaves us
in gloom. There are two happy end
ings to the two great narratives of
the New Testament. The first mar
rative is the life of Jesus himself.
The second narrative is the life of his
church. The story OF Jesus life on
earth would be immeasurably sad II it
left him on the cross. That would in
deed be the worlds most rayless trag-
edy. Those hands so busy in useful
toll and in kindly service, nailed to the
rough cross; those feet which had
sought out sorrow in order that relief
and comfort might be brought, also
pierced and torn; the eyes which had
looked forth with infinite tenderness
and pity upon the SORROWS OF men and
women and little children and which
had revealed undreamed-of depths OF
sympathy, closed in death; the brow
on which the light of heaven had
shone, dark with the shadows of
death, covered with dust and with
blood from the crown of thorns; the
heart that had throbbed with love for
the sad and the needy and oppressed,
pierced with the Roman soldiers
spear That would have been an end
ing too grievous to endure. But the
story does not end that way. There are
no tears in its ending. The Savior
met his weeping friend Mary Of Mag
dala in the garden with the comfort
ing words: why weepest thou?"
Since he is risen there is no longer
any reason for despair and grief. He
spent those days before his ascension
in bringing to his friends assurance Of
peace and 10y And he went back to
heaven promising that he himself in
actual spiritual presence would be
with them always. even to the end of
the age.
The happy ending in Revelation IN
but another part of this same happy
ending of the Gospels. All Christ's fol-
lowers are to share in the joy and
splendor of his resurrection. We are
to come to him with songs and ever
lasting joy upon our heads. May our
faith in him, our love for him, our
allegiance to him be so strong and
bright this year that of all the Eas-
ters 1t shall be the gladdest we have
ever known.-Christian Herald.

CONVEYED ONLY PLAIN TRUTH
Advertisement Of Boston Physician
Merely Stated Facts Exactly as
They Were.

A Boston physician tells of Doctor
Reed who, in his time, was one OF the
prominent medicos of the Hub. HIS
large practice included many patients
outside the city limits, and these he
visited in his buggy.
One day Doctor Reed bought new
horse, with which he was much
pleased until he discovered that the
animal had an insurmountable ob1ec-
tpn to bridges of all kinds, and could
not be made to cross one.
Inasmuch as at that period 1t was
necessary to cross certain bridges IN
order to reach any one of the sur
rounding towns, the doctor decided to
sell the horse. He did not thnK II
necessary to mention the animafs pc
culiarity, but was much too honest TO
misrepresent him, and, after some
thought. produced the following ad-
vertisement, which he inserted In
local paper:
For Sale.-A bay horse, warranted
sound and kind. The only reason for
selling is because the owner is obliged
to leave Boston"

HOW HOBO JOE LOVES HIS PIPE,
But He's Only a Dog, With a Special
Place to Sleep ON.

The janitors can all go on a strike,
and all the rooming and apartment
houses can grow cold, but there is
one dog, mere dog. that will get
along just as well.
Passing near the Commerce Build
ing, on Ninth street, one can see a
dirty, white dog sleeping peacefully
on the ground next to the cement
sidewalk All last winter this dog
kept this place, going only to find
something to eat back of a boarding
house across the street. Now the
evenings are again growing cold and
this dog. nicknamed "Hobo Joe" by
his student friends, has again taken
up his place of abode.
A student, wondering why Hobo
Joe" always slept on the same spot, in
yestigated. The dogs skin was dirty.
but very warm. The plot thickened.
A shove from the student and Hobo
Joe' ran away. Right where the dog
was lying was a warm pipe, which
conducted heat from one University
building to another.
1t may have been through animal
instinct, or it may have been an acci-
dent, but, anyhow, Joe has found a
warm home, and he expects the Uni
versity TO keep it up. If Hobo Joe''
was human being and he could be
interviewed, he probably would not
complain about the high cost of living.
