General Cadorna, who was a sue
cessful leader in Italy's war against
Turkey, is commander-in-chi of all
the Italian armies. General Roberto
Brusati, however, is the active leader
of the present Italian offensive.
Generals Cadorna and Brusati and
King Emmanuel hold frequent con-
ferences, at which military plans
are worked out Since Russia's great
slump Italy's task has been much
harder than ever before, the bulk of
the great Austro- Hungarian army
now being pitted against the Italians
With Italy out of the war, more than
million Austro-Hungarians would
in all likelihood be thrown against
the British and French in the west,
thus greatly prolonged the conflict.

universally called beautiful gets as
tired Of being told of it as I do. You
would think had to be flattered and

times I think if l could find a man
who did not tell me every minute and
a half how beautiful he thought I
was I would marry him Immediately
that is, of course, if he had the
grace to ask me.
Now look here, Donna" I said
Don't get foolish. You may be very
tired of being complimented, but
think, my dear, what it would mean
never to have any one tell you you
