cording to the Paris war ONCE, they have
awaited Of nothing.
On the contrary, 1t is asserted in to-
days Paris communique that these coun-
ter thrusts have cost the Germans heavy
sacrifices of blood. Battering forward
against the center of the La Fere-Sois-
sons sector OF the Hindenburg line, the
French today pushed beyond Folembray,
south of the Forest Of Coucy, half way
between La Fere and Scissors. They
are thus within reach OF the forests and
heights around st. Cobain.
These In their hands will mean the
abandonment by the Germans of La Fere
and Herewith, OF the whole front called
"Hindenburg line" 1t will mean the
abandonment Of the valuable French coal
district around Lens and the establish
ment of new German front running
north and south from Lens, east Of Sois-
sons, to the west Of Lille.
The next forty-eight hours are expected
to reveal whether the Teutons propose to
stand on the st. Quentin-La Fete-Laon-
Scissors line, or are willing to retire
farther to the eastward. The time has
come, military critics agree, whet-if
they propose to hold their present lite-
they cannot allow the French to ADVANCE
any farther.
Wherever the Teutons endeavored to-
day to halt the French sweep by furious
attacks. they were thrown back with
heavy losses, Paris asserts.
Five German aeroplanes were shot
down by the French.
Up to this evening nothing official had
yet come through from Berlin. Nor had
reports of today's British operations
reached here.

You have probably been in the habit

used sprays, washes and lotions and
possibly been temporarily relieved. But
after a short time you had another

the catarrh infection must be driven
out of the blood. The quicker you
come to understand this, the quicker
