HOW cATARRH IS CONTRACTED

Mothers are sometimes so thought
less as to neglect the colds which their
children contract. The inflammation
of the mucous membrane, at first
acute, becomes chronic and the child
has chronic catarrh, disease that is
seldom cured and that may prove
life's burden. Many persons who
member having had frequent colds at
the time it was contracted. A little
forethought, bottle of Chamber1ain's
Cough Remedy judiciously used, and
all this trouble might have been avoid
ed. Obtainable everywhere.

Gauls Retook in a Few Hours What it Took
Germans Several Months to Gain
BGAS ARE LOSING TO SERBS AND OTHER ALLIES BUT IOI ARE STEADILY sHN
THE R0UMANANS BACK

The French maintained the ground
gained yesterday along a front four
miles long in the Verdun region, ac-
cording to Paris. The gains in some
places extended nearly two miles in
side the former German lines. The
French reported $500 prisoners cap
tured, including the German COM
mander of Fort Douaumont.
Berlin admitted the French made
gains on this front.
Rain hindered military operations
on the Somme front.
Paris announced that Italian caval-
~ from Southern Albania has formed
junction with the entente forces in
Macedonia. This gave the Entente
Allies an unbroken front of $50 miles
from Avlona on the Adriatic, to the
mouth of the Struma river on the
Aegean.
Berlin critics point to the capture
of Predal, reported yesterday, as
marking a Rumanian loss of natural
mountainous defenses on their Tran
sylvanian frontier. They declared it
put the Teutons almost in position to
move on to the Rumanian plains to-
ward Bucharest. Berlin announced
the capture Of Vulgan pass today.
Bucharest announced the Ruman-
ians near Predeal and Kimpelung had
fallen back a short distance.
In the Dobrudja Berlin announced
the capture of Tchernavoda.
Petrograd said the Russo-Ruman-
ian forces have evacuated Tcherna-
voda and a position at Lake Tachaul
near the Black Sea.
The total Russian casualties since
June 1st, is announced as 1877 ,521,
according to figures given out by a
semi-official news agency in Berlin.
The figures are declared to have been
taken from the latest reports reports
Of the Russian central Identification
bureau at Kiev.

SURPRISE ON BOTH SIDES

The Germans apparently were COM
pletely surprised by the French att
tack at Verdun, and failed to stop the
rush at any point. In three hours the
French captured ground the Germans
spent months gaining. The French
account of the battle declared the
German lines "burst." Later details
Indicated the extent of the victory
was as much surprise to the French
ns to the Germans.
