BULLETIN.

London, April 1S.-After beat
ing off German counter assaults
the Anglo-French steam roller
again smashed forward today,
taking strategic roads, fortified
villages and dominating heights
from the Teutons all along the line.
Russian soldiers are fighting with
the French in the terrific drive
against the Germans in Champagne.
From the Lens-Loos sector,
where Field Marshal Haig's army
is crushing the German positions,
to the st. Souplet-Auberive line, IN
Champagne, more. than 80 miles
away, the guns are flaming all
night and the Allied forces cut
deeper toward the heart of the
Hindenburg line.
Since the British push opened on
April 8, the Anglo-French forces
have captured 10000 German pris-
oners, counting the $500 taken by
General Nivelle s men in the fight
ing yesterday.
The French, continuing their ter
rife attack between scissors and
Rheims and east of the latter town,
have carried German first line po-
sitions over sixteen miles of front
and captured powerfully organized
heights, occupying the important
village of Auberive. Furious coun-
ter assaults of the Germans have
been shattered.

This kind or rough talk will be heard less here in town if people troubled with corns will follow the simple advice of this Cincinnati authority, who claims that few drops of a drug called freezone when applied to a tender, aching corn stops sore ness at once. and soon the corn dries up and lifts right out without pain.
 He says freezone is an ether com pound which dries immediately and never inflames or even irritates the surrounding tissue or skin. A quarter of an ounce of freezone will cost very little at any drug store. but Is suffi- cient to remove every hard or soft corn or callus from one's feet.
