That It does not always pay to
advertise was demonstrated
when we advertised that. Johnny
Yasek had a hen that laid mon
sterous eggs, measuring 61a by
S1a inches. The reason that Il
I
docs not always pay to advertise
Is that: Johnny does not get
those large eggs to eat any more
In fact he does not get any eggs
at all. Some mean, sneaking
cuss came In the night and car
ried the prize hen away. The
party who stole Johnny's hen is
evidently a progressive cuss for
he also stole Johnny Atkins prize
rooster and is going to raise
thoroughbred chickens. And
there are some editors who will
tell you that 1t always pays to
advertise.

PENETRATE
RUSSIAN OEFEhSES
GERMANS DO NOT CLAIM ANY
ADVANCE EXCEPT. CAPTURE
OF GOWoROWA.
SLAVS MAY YET SAVE WARSAW
British Critics More Hopeful Than
Fer Some Days That Russians
May Be Able to Defeat
Teutonic Allies.

London, July 29.-Although tho
Germans are using very strong re-en.
forcements' Of men and guns, they have
not yet succeeded in breaking the Rus
sian resistance either around Warsaw
or in Kovno and Courland provinces,
IN each Of which sectors heavy fight
ing has been in progress for nearly
g fortnight.
Except, for the capture Of the vii"
lage of Goworowo, on the Narew front
and q number of prisoners and ma"
chine guns at that point and between
Mitau and the Niemen, the German
official report does not claim any adj
vance.
Held Up BY Russians.
In fact, General Won Buelow, IN the
North, and Field Marshal Won linden
burg, who crossed the Narew at SONS
points, are being held up by Russian
counter-attacks which, although prob
ably costly to the Russians, show thai
there is still plenty Of fight left in
them.
In the Southeast, Field Marshal VOC
Mackensen's attack on the Lublin-
Chelm railway seems for the moment
to have come to a standstill, although
he, too, is receiving re-enforceneats
and assistance from the Austrians
who succeeded in crossing the Bug at
Gokal.
To the west Of Warsaw the Germans
announce the capture Of the village Of
Piorunov, which Is almost Is miles
west of the front line of the city, so
that not much progress has been made
On this front.
British More Hopeful.
There Is a good deal in the Russian
and German official reports which can
not be reconciled, but, on the whole,
the British critics are more hopeful
than for some days that the Russians
will succeed in wdthstandlng this effort
10 capture Warsaw. as they did the
previous attempts.
The stubborn resistance 6 the
grand dukes troops, together with the
tact that the battle Is being fought
on ground Of his choosing, has renew
cd tho hope here that with sufficient
supply Of munitions he viii be able to
infict stragetio defeat on tho Ger
