The Hearing.

By far the biggest part of the hear ing we do is done with our ears. We hear at eve the thrush with our ears and the milkman in the morning. Then there is the other sort of hear ing that we do quite a bit, and could do just as well without ears.
 'I hear the Jonses haven't spoken , to each other for week." Lots of hearing of this sort is done. The way people like to hearl We hear this and we hear that. The amount of real hear ing that was done in the first place would have left the Jonses' reputa- ton in fairly good order.
 An enterprising real estate dealer, in addition to the view or the health fitness of a community, might adver- tise the hearing. Next to being heard people like to hear.-Exchange.

 The robber walked into the bank and held up the cashier, Earl Hill, at the point of gun. He marched Hill into the vault and, after turning the combination, proceeded to loot the cash drawers. Leaving the bank, he went in an easterly direction di- rect into one of chain of Boston Mountains, at the base of which the bank is located. He was not hindered by persons who saw him leave the building, as they knew nothing of the robbery.
 Hill remained in the vault for some time (the exact time could not be learned) and was liberated by hts mother, who had come to the bank to see him. Either she knew the con- bination or it was called to her by the entombed man, for she opened the vault. Hill was in prostrate condi- tion, but is said now to be out Of danger.
 Both Madison and Washington county officers were notified and are on the lookout for the bandit, who is described as being about five feet II inches in height, weight 150 pounds, black eyes, swarthy complexion and was wearing white shoes. overalls and cap.

'1f the people In this city realized what Tanlac did for me, you'd sell ten thousand bottles here tomorrow" said Mrs. Mattie c. Bond, 51O Mosby street, Memphis, Tenn, recently.
 'I suffered ten years" she contin- ued, "and was just about as near a physical wreck as q person could be. had trouble with my kidneys and stomach and got to where had to live on the very lightest food and could eat very little of that.>.. The pains in my stomach were awful. was extremely nervous and couldn't sleep and was seldom free from headaches. I felt tired all the time and was easily irri- tated and worried. I lost great deal of weight and finally got so weak and rundown I could hardly drag myself around. My color was bad too, and l was finally told I would have to go to the hospital and be operated on. All the medicine I had taken seemed to make me worse instead of better.
 q have actually gained fifteen pounds on Tanlac and I feel like a new woman in every way. I can just eat anything I want and everything agrees with me perfectly. Honestly wouldn't take all the money in Memphis for the good Tanlac did me. I have no more pains about my back or stomach and am not nervous like was and I sleep fine every night l don't know what it Is to have a head ache now and all the tired, bad feel ings have left me and have taken with them that dread of an operation. Tan lac has done me so much good can hardly keep back the tears of grati- tude, and feel like writing book on Tanlac and sending 1t broadcast, where it will reach those who suffer like did, so they will know about this wonderful medicine"

BATTLE IS RAGING
 ON RUSSIAN FRONT
GERMANS RUSHING UP TROOPS FROM ITALIAN AND FRENCH
 FRONTS TO CHECK ENEMY.
MAY ATTACK NEAR RIGA
On the Carpathan Front Austrians Are Said To Be "Fleeine in Panic" Stopping Only Where Occasional
 Steep Hills Give Them Rest.

Washington.-The whole Russian front, from the Gulf of Riga to Rou- mania, is reported in official dis patches from Petrograd to the Rus sian embassy here to be alive with battle. The Germans are said to be rushing up troops from the Italian and French fronts and to be entirely rearranging their positions.
 On the northern front, near Riga, German re-enforcements are rushing up by sea transport. On the Lem- berg front the troops are being shift ed back and forth by means of heavy automobiles in an attempt to prevent further advances by Gen. Kornilof. On the southern front, in the Carpa- thians, the Austrians are said to be in full flight.
 The German reinforcement of the Riga front by transport is understood here to be for German counter-of. fensive as a diversion to the severe Russian attack farther south. This has been long threatened, and it is thought now that Gen. von Moedre, in comamnd there, has been given or ders to go ahead.
 Dispatches report that the Rus sian Baltic fleet is capable of meet ing any naval offensive in that quar- ter. The land forts are also reported well equipped.
 On the Lemberg front the left flank of the Austro German army defending that city is stated to be seriously threatened, with the result that the enemy is using automobiles to rush men to support the weakened wing. Gen. Korniloff, in taking the town of Kalusz, made very serious strateg- ical threat against the whole oppos- ing German forces.
 On the Carpathian front the Aus trians are said to be fleeing in pan ic," stopping only where occasional steep hills give them rest. Gen. Troskansky, in command of the Rus sians there, is said to be vigorously overcoming the rear guards left along the natural barriers.
 Other dispatches tell of new rules of army discipline about to be Issued by Minister Kerensky. They will be very brief and will stress the equal responsibility of officers and men.
 Gen. Kutchkoff, the former minis ter of war, who resigned as a protest against the interference of the Sol diers' and Workmens Council in strictly military affairs, is stated 10 have enlisted in the new volunteer di- vision. He is 50 years old and has been one of the most powerful men of Russia.
 The trouble in Finland is reported as reaching settlement.

 "That isn't very likely. The few ministers you've ever met you could remember easily enough. It's more likely he's gambler or a barkeeper." "Great Scott, woman!"

The already intensive programme

The already intensive programme for the citizens training school at Fort Logan H. Roots has been further frightened with the close of the school less than one month away and extra effort is being crowded on to show good results from the 90-day training period. Students of the artillery branches are getting frst-hand in- struction from members of the crack First Iowa Battalion, while the men of cavalry and infantry branches are putting in the scheduled hours under the regular post instructors. The present month is regarded as the most important one of the period be- fore the school is closed on August II.
 Close observers of military affairs expect excellent results from the Fort Roots Camp. The physical flt- ness of the officers trained here will be proved beyond doubt by their sticking through the 90-day ordeal, while the thoroughness of the instruc- tion will account for the technical side of it. The magnitude of the task undertaken by Maj. Gowen and his staff is shown by the fact that the school has undertaken to complete in 90 days time work ordinarily ac- complished at West Point in four years. The success so far attained attests to the care exercised by the War Department in planning the camps. Army officers sent here as instructors are for the most part West Point graduates with long records of service under the colors.
