of Ypres, which affords domi-
mating point for the launching Of
future attacks, is nearly all in
the hands of the Britishers, and
at several points the Oatend-
Lille railway now Is virtually
within the range of Haig's guns.
More than 5000 German prison
ers had been passed behind the
lines when tho latest official COM
municatinn concerning the days
fighting was sent. and many 9TH

Especially bitter fighting oc-
Cured to the east Of Zonnebeke,
the nearest point Of approach to
the railway line which connects
Ostend, Zeebrugge and other
northern points Of supply with
the German line to the south. The
efforts of the Germans TO stay
the British here were fruitless.
, however, az likewise were their
efforts further north in the re.
gion of Poelcapelle. where the
British gained ground TO depth
of about two-thirds Of mile.
There has been no cessation in
the extremely violent artillery
duel between the French and the
Germans on the west bank of the
Meusc river, In the Ferdun sec
tor. The Germans have made
another infantry attack against
the French north of Hill 344, in
this region, but again were re-
pulsed with heavy casualties.
Near Jacobstadt, which lies
midway between Riga and
Dvinsk, on the northern Russian
front, big battle apparently is
being prepared for. Here Petro-
grad reports an intense artillery
= duel in progress. which probably
indicates that the Germans are
seeking to pave the way for an
attempt to cross the Dvina river.
To the south the Germans again
are endeavoring TO frateTnlze
with the Russians. inviting them
10 come out Of their trenches.
The Russians have answered the
enemy by firing upon them.
In the Italian theater, General
Cadorna's forces have been forced
10 sustain further heavy counter
attacks from the Austrians on the
slopes of Monte San Gabrielle,
near Gorilla. The attacks, like
similar ones delivered during the
last week. came TO nauEht under
the fire Of the Italian artillery.
French airmen are continuing
their rcpTisals on German cities
. and towns for the aerial bonn
bardmcnt Of Bar lie Duo by Ger
man aircraft. Frankfort-on-the-
Main and Rastatt Baden, four
teen miles southwest Of karls-
7uhe, have been effectively
shelled from the air. In addition,
the British and French flyers are
continuing their raids over Ger
man points of military advantage
behind the fighting lines. again
having loosed large quantities OF
explosives upon them.

of the highest standing in that city

vehicle Of his success. In response TO
Il request for statement Of his eXpe-

letter:
Washington. Pa. Aug. %, 1917.

handled or sold medicine which has
proven as satisfactory as Wentworth.
Some Of the reports | get from per-
sons who have used It are marvellous.
| have seen it used after years of doc
toring, and even after patients have
been forced TO bed. with better results
than anything previously used. Have
known it being given to young babies
for collie and other stomach and bowel
troubles with perfect results. To cite
one instance:
A baby, 16 months DID, would sleep
during the day and keep awake during
the night. This continued for some
time and the parents were nearly eX-
hausted. 1t also had considerable
trouble with its stomach and bowels
and was cross most Of the time. The
family physician was appealed to but
without any satisfactory result. One
night the mother gave it dose OF
Nerv-Worth and in a few minutes
baby was asleep and slept we'll the en-
tire night. This was repeated each
night and in few nights baby came
to know the Wentworth bottle. would
take 1t in its arms after getting the
dose, and go to sleep. The child i'm
proved In every way. Slept better.
had no digestive or bowel trouble and
became very happy and contented. Its
parents are very grateful for Nerv-
Worth, but are too conservative to
give statement.
The fact, too, that | have sold over
$500 bottles in little over a year is
pretty conclusive evidence Of the mer-
It's of Nerv.Worth. for persons who
have used it would not recommend II

tory results.

her from the regular laying nest at

How To Set A Hen

AS the time approaches for the
hen to become broody or sit, if care
is taken to look into the nest, it will
be seen that there are a few soft,
downy feathers being left there by
the hen; also the hen stays longer
on the nest when laying at this
time, and on being approached will
quite likely remain on tae nest,
making a clucking noise, ruff1ing
her feathers, and pecking at the in
truder. When it is noted that a hen
sits on the nest from two to three
nights in succession, and that most
of the feathers are gone from her
breast, which should feel hot to the
hand, she is ready to be transferred
TO a nest which has been prepared
for her beforehand, according to the
poultry specialists of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture. The nor
NAL temperature of a hen is from
TO 107 degrees F., which varies
slightly during incubation.
Dust the hen thoroughly with in
sect powder. and in applying the
powder hold the hen by the feet, the
head down, working the powder
we'll into the feathers, giving spec
ial attention to regions around the
vent and under the wings. The
powder should also be sprinkled in
the nest.
The nest should be in some qu.es,

whv Stones Cannot Burn Like Coal.

Stones cannot burn for the simple
reason that they are dead matter which
has burned out. When anything burns
it takes into it's system all the oxygen
of the air that it can combine with.
When it has done this it cannot be
burned any more. In burning any
substance changes its character.
The original element Of most OF the
rocks and stones we see was silicon,
and when that combines with oxygen
the result is form of rock, a concrete
substance, but unburnable.
