entente allies toward King Constan-
tines government.
London received word to-day of eN-
cellent progress by the British. forces
advancing up the Tigris to the relief
of Kut-el-Amara in Mesopotamia
where General Townshend's army has
been beleaguered since a short time
after its retreat from the vicinity of
Bagdad.
General Aylmer's relief column is in
close touch with the Turkish position
at Essin. only seven miles from Kut-
|el-Amara, it was announced the Brit
ish evidently having pushed up the
river from the point some twenty
miles down stream at which a defeat
of the Turks recently was reported.
Apparently all was well with the gar
rison at Kut, for it was stated that
General Townshend reported quiet
there.
There has been a revival of infan-
try activity on the western battle
front, although evidently on no eN-
day that the German lines north of
Frelingheim, in Northern France,
close to the Belgian border had been
attacked by the British last night
along a front of several hundred yards.
The British used smoke bombs in at
tempting their advance Dut were re-
pulsed, losing heavily, it is declared.
Other operations in France and Bel
GUM have been for the most part
carried out by aeroplanes.
To-day's official statements contain
nothing bearing on the battle reported
raging on the eastern front, the Ger
man statement mentioning only out
post skirmishes and artillery duels.
Latest reports from Vienna were that
the Russians had renewed their often
sive east of Czernowitz Bukowina,
making several strong attacks which,
however. were repulsed.

haustive speech in the Senate to-day
by Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia.

the poor directorate. This was def
nitely decided at yesterdays meeting.

of $50 per month to the Visiting Nurse
Association for the purpose and this
appropriation has been cut off. The
regular nurse at the almshouse will be
called in to assist at the colored in

Two children are now being housed
at the almshouse One of them is
mentally deficient She is about years
old and when first admitted she was
hopelessly idiotic, apparently, and was
even unable to walk Her tongue pro-
truded constantly from between her
lips. During the last year, however,
some of the inmates-including sew
eral who are mentally. deficient them
selves--have taught the youngster to
keep her tongue between her teeth and
to toddle along by pushing a light
frame box about. In time the young
ster and her other small companion
may be housed at the nursery

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you can not tlnd a
single trace of dandruff or falling halr
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after a
few weeks use, when you see new halr,
fine and downy at first-yes- but
really new haic--growing all over the
scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately
doubles the beauty of your hair. No
difference how dull. faded. brittle and
scraggy, just moisten cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair. taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is amaz-
ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and
wavy, and have an appearance of
abundance; m incompatible luster.
softness and luXuriance.
Get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter, and prove that your hair
is as pretty and soft as any-that it
has been neglected or injured by care
less treatment--that's all--you surely
can have beautiful hair and lots of it
If you will just try little Danderine.

Better Feeling Exists
Throughout Railroad Circles

Some interesting matter is contain
ed in the report of Frank w. NoXon,
Secretary of the Railway Business AS
ISOLATION. Among other things he
says:
"Gratification and hope over poll
teal solicitude for the welfare of the
railways at the opening of 1916 are
intensified by the solid way in which
the political leaders have based pres
ent procedure upon the teachings of
the past. President Wilson prescribes
no explicit remedy, but recommends
search for remedies. Chairman New
lands of the Senate Committee in his
resolution calling for joint commit
tee of Congress avoids the promotion
of any specific provision. A leading
railway executive expressed the atti-
tude of his colleagues when he
pledged them to welcome a solution
however it may differ from any pre-
conceived views.
'In the calendar year just ended,
according to the returns of the Rail-
way Age Gazette. the freight cars
built were the fewest since 1904 with
the single exception of 1911; the pas
senger cars the smallest since 1902
except 1908; the locomotives the
smallest since 1898; the construction
of new miles of first track, about So
per cent of the smallest previous year
since 1898. 1t is the persistency of
this trend that has developed politi-
cal solicitude. Large tonnage and
large earnings have not on this occa-
sion blinded the public and public
officials to the underlying financial
problem. The problem has before
been vivid in periods of business de-
preston, but it is now coming TO be
recognized as a continuing menace in
boom and slump alike. Political as
we'll as industrial leaders have ac-
quired a more abiding realization of
the ckbottom facts"

Resume Full Crew Fight;
Plan Publicity Campaign

Officials of railroads in the East
have resumed activity in the campaign
against full crew bills. Forces will be
and efforts made to have
the Pennsylvania, New York and New
Jersey Legislatures repeal the bills.
Preliminary conferences have been
held and it is said publicity will again
be feature in the railroad fight. The
managers believe in taking the
public into their confidence as the best
means to attain their ends, and con-
tend that had the repeal of the full
crew law been submitted direct to the
voters of these three States. as it was
in Missouri. it would. as there, have
carried by a large majority.

Fear Poison
 For Soldiers
By ALICE RoHE

CUnited Press Staff Correspondent,
 ROME, Dec. 26. - (By MaiH- Italys boys in the trenches had a roy al Christmas. Best of all their Christmas gifts was Christmas din- ner in steam heated trenches. With their modern trench improvements they had the best of it over some of the girls they left behind them. For sunny Italy has the coldest interiors and the poorest heating facilities in all the world. In the trenches how ever; up where the snow is heavy and the rains are freezing in the mount aims, the steam heated trenches are driving away the terrors of a winter campaign.
 The sending of gifts to soldiers at the front was one of the most touch- ! ing of all Christmas activities. ] Everyone wanted to send something A poorly clad woman entered one of the stations where special boxes of sweets, ready for sending to soldiers were on sale. She had only sixteen soldi. The boxes were one franc fifty.
 .Tu buy something" she said. Eve no one at the front now. My 5oy's fallen at Col di Lana but want to send some little comfort to some other mothers boy" She bought a small package of sweets for sixteen cents and some mothers boy must have felt a different quality in that dearly purchased remembrance.
 The order that chocolate and sweets could not be sent privately to soldiers at the front caused such a wall that parliament decided to change the order The order had been given be- cause of the fear that poisoned sweets from suspicious and concealed quart CTS might reach the soldiers. Enough evidence had come to the ears of the authorities to warrant this action. It was this same fear that resulted in the public cigar and cigaret collection stations being abandoned. The op- portunity for enemies sending poison ed cigars or cigarets offered too strong temptation to evil minds,
 The discovery of poisoned tobacco brought the decisive order. Thou sands or cigars were destroyed ana the order was that thenceforth only money would be accepted to buy cigars from government supply stores.
 At Christmas time the bars were down for chocolate and sweets. In the face of Christmas sentiment, voiced by mothers and sweethearts, wives and children, law and precaution step ped aside. And the rush of bundles of candy and chocolate, of tabacco and all sorts of presents, has appalled, the postal clerks.
