Breach Widens.
In southern Volhynia the breach In
the Teutonic lines has been widened
according to Petrograd, the Austro-
German forces falling back before the
Russian advance in the Slonevka re-
gion. The Russians are crossing that
river, a tributary of the Styr, and
pressing forward. They announce the
capture of five guns, six machine guns,
quantities of material and many pris-
oners.
Sharp fighting has taken place on
the Russian front in the Riga region

Pinsk. The Germans were the assail.
ants in these sectors, but failed to
gain ground.

fighting, grubbing in mud and crum.
bled masonry, the Anzac soldiers of
Great Britain's armies have finally tax.

great thrust Of the British offensive.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
iDfiamed condition of the mucous I'm
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness Is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
Of ten are caused by Catarrh, which Is
nothing but an inflamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.
We give One Hundred Dollars for
any case Of Deafness (caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

TEUTONIC RUSH is CHECKED ny
RUMAIAN ARMY

New York, December 11--Indications
today point more strongly than ever Il
the probability that the new defensive
line of the Rumanians, following Their
retreat from Bucharest, will be drawn
along the Buzeu river, forming the
southern provance Of Moldavia.
Petrograd reports that the Rumani.
an northern army has stopped the Teu.
tonic advance northeast along the rail
road from Ploechti. The Rumanians
are trying to prevent an Austro-G Ger.
man advance at this point until the
Rumanians retreating from the region
between Bucharest and Tchernavoda
have reached the Buzeu river line
These Rumanian forces are threatened
not only by Field Marshal Won Mack
ensen's Danube army, but by new con-
tingents of Bulgarians which have
crossed the Danube between Silistria
and Tchernavoda.
Meanwhile the Russian are ham,
mering away at the Austro- German
lines on the western frontier of'Mol-
davia and report making Roadway in
the valleys running toward the west.
Their object apparently is not only to
hold the Moldavian frontier safe, but
to cut in behind the Austro-G German
supply lines leading into Rumanian
from the north.
