BALKAN CAMPA|GN
 ENTERS NEW PHASE
TEUTONiC POWER WILL NOT AT TACK ANGLo-FRENcH FORCES
 IN SOUTHERN SERBIA.
MONTENEGRO IS INVADED
Monastir, It Is Admitted, Cannot Be Saved, serbians Defending City to Resist All Efforts to Give Civil
 ians Chance to Escape.

London-The campaign in the Near East is about to enter a new phase, upon which the visit of Lord Kitch- ener to Paris and Emperor William to Vienna, it is believed, will have important effects
 Lord Kitchener, after visiting the Balkans and Italy, has arrived at Par is for an important series of confer ences with the French staff, while the German emperor has gone to Vienna to see Emperor Francis Joseph and discuss the next move with the Aus trian generals. Presumably it is question whether the Teutonic pow CTS will attack the Anglo-French forces in southern Serbia or concen- trate in western Bulgaria to meet the threat of Russian invasion from the easb and the possibility of Rumania taking sides against her old enemies, Bulgaria and Turkey.
 The Austrians have invaded Monte negro, while the Bulgarians are at- tempting to advance to Prisrend and Monastir.
 With heavy and continuous snow storms reaching the proportions of a blizzard, these operations must be slow, especially as the Serbians and Montenegrins are offering stubborn resistance.
 Monastir, it is aditted cannot be saved, but the Serbians who are de lending the city are determined to re- sist to the last and give the civilians a chance to escape. They hold front five mikes from the town in the direc- tion of Prilep, from which the Bul- garians, who have crossed the Caras- sou river, are advancing.
 Snow has stopped operations on the Anglo-French front in Serbia The opposing forces, who are separated by a valley mile across, have lost sight of each other.
 There are no details of the Greek reply to the collective note of the en- tente powers demanding facilities for the Anglo-French forces, but a dis patch from Athens says it is couehed in friendly terms and is regarded as paving the way for the desired settle ment which would enable Greece to maintain her neutrality and not inter fere with the intentions of the allies.

The close connection which exists between the heart and the kidneys Is well known nowadays. As soon as kidneys are diseased, arterial tension is increased and the heart functions are attacked. When the kidneys no longer pour forth waste, uremic poi soning occurs, and the person dies and the cause is often given as heart dis ease, or disease of brain or lungs.
