NEWWARPHASE |S ABOUT T0 BE :
 ENTERED UPON
Russian Successes, Progress of Allied Fleet i'll Oar danelles and Decision of Allies to Stop Shipping Creates New Situations
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHl

LONDON. Feb. 27.-With Russian successes in the region of Przasnysz, North Poland Kolomea and East Calicia, the successful progress of the operations of the allied fleet in the Dardaneles and the decision of the allied governments to stop all shipping to and from Germany, Aus tria and Turkey, it is believed here a new phase of the war is about to be entered upon.
 While the success reported by Petrograd covers only a small DOT tion of the long front north of Po- land, and the Germans have been able to record counter success near Kolno, the general impression among the military men of London is that not only has the German offensive in the north exhausted itself, but the tide is turning in favor of the Rus sians, who with the railways at their back, have been able to bring up more endorsements than the in vading army, whose communications after the German territory was left. must cross a country of marshes and cverflowing rivers. Much more fight ing, however, must be waged before a final decision is reached.
 In the meantime the battle has been resumed in Central Poland, where the Russians have made q slight advance, and engagements in the Carpathians, Eastern Galicia and Bukowina continue with unabated fury From what can be gathered from the official reports, the Rus sians, despite the onslaught made upon them from all sides by the Austrians and Germans. have been able to maintain their strength at all points. and to throw in new troops where necessary.
 As result the Austro- German plan of compelling them to weaken the center by attacking the two ex- treme wings have failed. While the Russians are forced from East Prus- sia and Bukowina. they have been able to make stand and when re- inforced they delivered counter-at- = tacks, which apparently are making of any importance in the west is in the Champagne district. where the French conenue the offensive, and where fighting, according to a Ger man report. has been quite spirited and in the country to the north of -

his wife considerable embarrassment.

how it happened.
On the day of the trial one of the

There is also a jumper suit Of fine

the white trimmings which make it
very pretty for outing use. A very
smart hat of white linen, trimmed with
blue suede, is worn with this suit.
Tweed flannel semifitted sweaters
are quite new and have collars, cuffs
and sashes Of plain white tweed, fin
ished with mother of pearl buttons.
Box plated waists in dainty colored
chambrays, having polo collars and
cuffs of white pique, are especially new

English skirt is also a feature, which is

Embroidered hats are new and very

TRAINING THE FLEA.

How the Tiny insect 10 Wsansd From
His Jumping Habit.
The teaching Of the flea to do any
sort of trick is. Of course, a tedious,
difficult matter" said a 1ea trainer.
1.-The first thing to do Is to break 1t OF
its natural habit of jumping.
Zone can see how necessary this Is
when one considers the flea Is less than
o~ne-eighth Of an inch in length and
has a jump Of three feet-3OO times Its
own length. If a six foot man had
the same leaping power he could make
leaps of 1900 feet, so that when a flea
has the. advantage Of n leap he is
good as gone forever. My apparatus
for jump breaking is q round glass
ball. 1 conane him in this for three
weeks. look through this ball, touch
it, fash lights into it, talk, do every
thing to let the flea accustom himself
to my presence. At first he will jump
and jump. He strikes against the
curved walls and gets bruised. After
a time, AID l find three weeks to be
ample, the flea gets to know me, and
he also gets to know that it is less
painful to crawl than to jump and get
bruised.
"The flea cannot diferentiate be-
tween transparent glass and no glass.
so that when l take him from the ball
he still strikes this peculiar obstruc-
ton and so he don't jump. So. you see.
a flea must have some reasoning power
somewhere. but l am in no position to
say where it is located. That is why
l have to pick leas up with tweezers
and put them on my arm when I want
to feed them. They don't dare to
jump on me."-Kansas City Star.

will appear on Thursday, Oct. IA.
The next will be the lnternation-

hoped that an equal enthusiasm

HOW TO TAKE GOOD CARE
OF THOSE DELICATE
ORGANS, THE EYES.

1t is undoubtedly true that we
do not take sufficient care of our
eyes. The eye is too delicate an
organ, however, to be subjected
to haphazard treatment. A sud-
den change from very bright light
to darkness should be avoided.
and II the eyes are weak the pre-
vailing color In the room in
which one spends most Of the
time should be some tint that is
helpful to the eyesight.
Do not read while lying down,
when rocking or when in q cal.
Do not use the eyes before break
fast. and do not read or sew In
the sun, but let a good, strong
light fall over your right shout
der. Hold whatever you read on
"a level with the eyes, and do not
bend over your book or paper.
