on Paris.
Paris, March 7.-Public confidence
is greatly strengthened by the news
OF the continued repulse Of the Ger
man attacks near Verdun. In mill
tary and political circles intense sat.
isfact1on Is expressed regarding the
situation and the opinion begins to
prevail that the great efforts of the
Germans will be more easily disposed
of them expected at first.
Having failed to make any impress
sion on the Douaumont position and
on Vaux, to it's right, the German gen.
eral staff determined to smash the
French left on the Vacherauville
Wood-Cote du Poivre position. With.
out regard to the cost the best troops
were hurled forward, but with no
more success than elsewhere. Pom
eranians and what was left of the
Brandenburgers dashed themselves
vainly against the French, who stood
as immovable as a rock wall.
At Vaux the Germans finally fell
back, leaving dead in heaps. The
French infantry, supported by their
formidable artillery, showed them.

lery on both sides Numbered. The
French infantry in that section had
little to do, but it remains there ready
for any eventuality, although the mill
tary experts believe it is extremely
doubtful that the Germans will at
tempt to storm the Mont-Homme key
position, for to do so they must deploy
over plain mile wide, under cross
fire from the heights around.

keep your liver and bowels clean;
stomach sweet and head clear for
months. They work while you sleep.

Sharpening a Pocketknife.

Cutters have certain rules for sharp
ening razors, pocketknives, etc. "A
razor" said one of the craft quoted
by the Scientific American, must be
laid fiat on the hone, because it is hol-
low ground and requires a fine edge.
But pocketknife requires stiff edge,
and the moment you lay it fat on a
stone, so as to touch the polished side,
you injure the edge. It must be held
at an angle of twenty to twenty-five
degrees and have an edge similar to
chisel''
