THE WAR SUMMARY.

Austro German attempts 10 cross the
Piave have been foiled generally BY the
Italians and the party that crossed at
Zenson has not been able to deboueh.
Several attempts have been made to
cross the river between Zenson and the
Adratic, but only in the narshland on
the coast have the Germans been able
to make progress. Here they are under
heavy fire and il is improbable that
any large number of Austro Germans
will be able to take advantage of tho
break, because of terrain conditions.

His Career.

With a record of practically half
century Of continuous service in di-
plomacy and the practice of interna-
tional law, John Watson Foster had a
fair claim to the title of dean of the
diplomatic service of the United States.
He had been secretary of state under
President Harrison, succeeding Blaine
when the latter resigned after his SEN
sational quarrel with the chief execu-
tive. and had held three separate com
missions as a minister plenipotentiary.
Besides that he represented the United
States in many special treaty negotia-
tions. had acted as its agent before in
ternational commissions and even had
been called into the service of foreign
governments.
As secretary of state his most no.
table act was a treaty with the Amer
leans in Hawaii. who had been con-
cerned in the overthrow of the native

preparation had increased in price
since the war so accordingly searched

did not find that particular article,
but because of the great difference in
the prices advertised for standard
preparations by this firm and those I
have to pay the local dealer, 1 was
prompted to call on the phone for
the price of the glycerophosphates 1
was much surprised to know I could
GET 1t for S.l5 a pint bottle as I had
to pay SIS the regular price, before
prices increased. In curiosity l in
quired from another store and learned
that N-0 was the regular price, IS
cents difference. Needless to say /
made for - where 1 purchased
pesldes mat article three packages of
Diamond Dyes which I expected to
make wonderful use Of this fall. These
were Z cents instead of 10 cents and
the scarce dark colors at that. 1
bought tube Of Unguentine, mar
velous remedy for sores and burns for
80 cents instead of 80 cents and il is
worth its weight in gold. l always get
real help and comfort from this ad-
