except near Poelderhoek chateau,
where the terrific fire Of the German
machine guns momentarily forced
the British to give ground. Later
the attacking troops re-aligned them
selves, and the push went on again.
Aside from Flanders, the opera
tions in the various theatres of war
are of minor character. Along the
Aisne and Champagne fronts and on
the left bank of the Meuse in the Ver-
dun sector intensive artillery duels
are still in progress between the
French and the Germans. In the
Champagne the French have carried
out a successful raid near the butte
of Tahure and taken prisoners.
Quiet on East Front.
Reciprocal bombardments are IN
progress between the Italians and
Austrians on the Austro-Italian front
and between the entente forces and
the Teutonic allies in Macedonia.
Another Austro-German peace Of
fer, which is to be based on the prin-
ciples of no territorial aggrandize-
ment, the surrender Of Belgian and
French territory, the renunciation
of territorial acquisitions for money
payments, and no indemnity by either
side, is soon to be put forward, ac-
cording to a prominent Berlin news
paper.

ORAL WILL VALID.
Correspondence Associated Pre-

Correspondence Associated Press)
London, Dec: 21.-ln one of the
courts of justice recently a verbal
statement before witnesses, without
any writing, was pronounced good
will. This statement was made by an
officer (since killed i naction) who told
his brother officers that if he were
killed all his property was to go to
his wife. The possibility of executing
such valid will is privilege reserv-
ed to soldiers and sailors on active
service by an act of 1877 which says:
"Any soldier being in actual military
service, or any mariner or seaman be-
ing at sea, may dispose of movable,
wages and personal estate as he OF
they might have done before the MAX
ing of his act"

There's no reason why person

Of Dodson's Liver Tone-a perfect
substitute for calomel.
1t is a pleasant, vegetable liquid

Children and grown folks can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug. 1t is

Take a spoonful Of Dodson's Liver
