First Detachment of Italian Forces is Landed and is Warmly Greeted by Allied Forces Populace Cheers Soldiers Going to Camp.
Petrograd Claims Capture of Another Large Body of
 Teutons Sharp Fighting
 in Progress Along Somme Front With Little Gains.

Paris, Aug. 2i-Italian troops began to disembark at Saloniki yesterday, says a Havas des- patch from that point.
 On leaving their ships, the despatch says, the Italians passed through Saloniki to camp, preceded by military bands of the allies and cheered by the populace.
 No further details of the op- Ierations on the Saloniki front are given in the report today from the French army of the least which shows that fighting lis still in progress along the whole line.
 Active participation by Italian troops in the Saloniki campaign would mean the existence of a state of war between Germany and Italy. Ger many is directing the operations against the Allies on this front and as the official German, reports show, has forces there. Some Austrian troops also probably are employed and possibly Turks, but the major portion .Iof the army was made up of Bull lsgarians.
 Recent reports have indicated the withdrawal of Austrian troops from the Balkans for use on the Russian and Italian fronts. As the entente allies are believed to have a force of some 100000 British, French and i8eFbian troops on the Saloniko front. the vending of achievements at this Itsnne, just after the opening of hos ,tilitfes on . large scale, would indi- lcate that the allies have embarked on ia campaign of extensixe proportions.
 Italy, which has a considerable sur ip1us of troops, has been urged to take Ia more active part in the part of the Balkan operations
 A commercial treaty between these nations was abrogated and German court ruled that Germany is actually. though not formally a. war with Italy and last week it was reported that the defense of Triest would be taken lover by Germans. Italian participa- ltion in the Balkan operations hitherto has been limited to occupation of the Albanian port of Avlona which was effected before Italy declared war on Austria

mass of leftover waste, toxins and
ptomain-like poisons are formed and
sucked into the blood.
Men and women who cant get feel
ing right must begin to take inside
baths. Before eating breakfast each
morning drink glass of real hot
water with teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate in it to wash out of
the thirty feet of bowels the previous
days accumulation of poisons and
toxins and to keep the entire alimen-
tary canal clean, pure and fresh.
Thos who are subject to sick head
ache, colds, billiousness, constipation,
others who wake up with bad taste,
foul breath, backache, rheumatic stiff
ness, or have sour, gassy stomach
after meals, are urged to get a quarter
pound of limestone phosphate from
the drug store, and begin practicing
internal sanitation. This will cost
very little, but is sufficient to make
any one an enthusiast on the subject.
Remember inside bathing is more
important than outside bathing, be-
cause the skin pores do not absorb
Impurities into the blood, causing
poor health, while the bowel pores do.
Just as soap and hot water cleanses,
sweetens and freshens the skin, so
