He Und.rsto God His Profession.


The professor Of Jurisprudence in q
western university was lecturing to a
hundred embryo lawyers. He asked
whether every one in America could
own property. One fellow answered.
mo; criminal can't own property"
But the professor said: Suppose a
man owns a ranch, gets into trouble
with his neighbor, assaults him and is
put into the penitentiary. Does he still
own the ranch?'
The class was unanimous that he
did.
III he did not continue to own It,"
went on the professor, what would
become of it?'
That was supposed to settle the dis
cussion, but one boy called out, 'The
lawyer would get it!'
There was hearty laugh, Of course,
and the professor added:

remark-be a lawyer, and don't be

Neuralgia.

Neuralgia.
Severe neuralgia can be cured by in
jecting alcohol into the nerves, but the
cost Is terrible. for. the price is the
death Of the nerve, with paralysis as
tile result. Such, in brief, is the con-
clusion which DR.. Williams B. Cad
walader reports to the Journal Of the
American Medical association after ex-
periments made at the laboratory of
neuropathology of the University Of
Pennsylvania. The alcohol kills not
only the nerves of sensation, but the
motor nerves as well. In a nerve like
the sciatic this would be serious. For
the nerve may remain paralyzed for a
year after the injection of the alcohol.
In trifacial neuralgia, which rs caused
by purely sensory nerve, this action
is of little Importance. The cure is not
permanent however, but affords free
dom from pain for several months, per-
llaps as much as a year. The nerves
degenerate just as they do when sew
cred.

war SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, Aug. 11.-Special: The
Teutonic allies continue successfully
their operations against Russia, in
northwest Russia and in Poland; an
engagement to drive the remaining
Russians from east Galicia has be-
gun: the British have captured from
the Germans in Belgium trenches
taken from them recently through the
use of flame projectors, and have
captured 700 yards of additional ter
ritory there; French airmen have
bombarded S~aabrucken. in Rhenish
Prussia. to the northeast of Metz; the
Italians and Austrians are still in
heavy combat.
Thus may be %chronicled in brief
the latest phases of the war as they
have been made public through the
various war chaneellories.
Starting in northwest Russia.
where the fortress of Kovno is closely
pressed, down through Poland to a
point below Warsaw and thence east
ward across the Vistula and north
eastward between the Vistula and the
Bug. the Germans and Austrians. ac-
cording to the official reports of Ber-
lin and Vienna, are drawing more
closely together the lines which
threaten to clear entirely of the men
of Grand Duke Nicholas armies.
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg's
troops to the north and northeast of
Warsaw are steadily pressing east
and southeast; a ring of besiegers
has been forged around the fortress
of Novogeorgievsk. the last strong
hold on the Vistula line remaining in
Russian hands; Praga. the eastern
suburb of Warsaw. upon which the
Muscovites fell back when they eyac-
uated the Polish capital. has been
captured; the railroad from Warsaw
to Lublin has been crossed between
Ivangorod and Garwolin. evidently
with the idea of moving on to Lukow,
the junction of the Iyangorod-Brest-
Litvsk railway. Farther eastward
and southeastward, between the Wis
tula and Bug and along the Vieprz.
the Russians are still falling back,
but at some points, especially be-
tween the Vleprz and the Bug, they
continue their resistance.
The bag of prisoners at Warsaw
was small, Berlin declaring that only
a few thousand of them were taken.
Nor has the number captured by
Archduke Joseph Ferdinand been
large. Vienna asserting merely that
the number of men captured by him
has been increased to 5000"
Although the Teutonic allies SEEM
ingly have not been successful in en-
trapping any large section of the Rus
sian grand dukes forces, according to
the Overseas News agency, they have
obtained in their invasion of Poland
a bountiful supply of foodstuffs for
their men and forage for their horses.
The news agency reports that many
farmers disobeyed the Russian or
ders to destroy their crops and that
the Germans and Austrians therefore
have come in for a full harvest of
rye, wheat and oats.

FASHION In PARIS
Boots Accompany Vogue of Short
Skirts-Black Cloth Uppers
Popular.

Paris, Aug. 11.-(Correspondence
OF Associated Press THE short
skirt has brought back into style the
high shoes of the second empire.
White and fancy colors are 40 long
err in favor with the most fashionable
women who incline rather to plain
black entire cloth uppers, with patent
leather tips. The heels are higher
than they have ever been since the
eighteenth century. The extremists
of this style frequently seen in the
Bots de B%oulogne carry themselves as
II they were walking on stills.
Referring to the outcry in Berlin
against the .tyrannical domination OF
Paris in the matter of styles. and the
campaign for purely national German
fashions, one fashion authority de-
clares that writer's, politicians and
economists are powerless to alter
styles.
The Germans will have no more
success in their war on French styles
than will have the French on their
wal on German music, in the opinion
of this authority.
In proof of his assertion he pro-
duces a recent number of Berlin fash
ion review with fashion plates show
ing that there the closed umbrella
skirt has given way to the bell skirt
with the same plaits and trimmings
as in Paris.
