to take the radiator apart to clean it?
First of all find out whether the radi-

hose connection and then run water
into the filler opening and note wheth-
err the water flows freely from the low
er connection or whether the passage
seems to be impeded and the water
overfows from the top.

Remedy for Flat Feet.

Owing to the number of otherwise
splendid applicants rejected from the
United States marine corps for fiat
feet. marine corps examining physl-
sians have issued the following sim
,Ie exercisers and pointers, which ii
followed, they say, will remedy that
ailment.
During exercise at all times, turn
the toes in.
Walk with toe of each foot point
ing to the front; in straight line, /:
possible.
Stand with toes turned in; raise
body on toes, slowly, as high as
possible. Rest second, then with
weight of body on toes, lower slowly
down to floor, and repeat.
When in the house in stocking feet,
walk on toes; heels not touching the
aoor, and toes turned in.
When sitting, cross the legs, the
foot always resting on the outer
side.
The wearing of broad toe shoes
with the metal ''arch supporters alb

ITALIANS CONTINUE HOLD
HUNS WHO CROSSED RIVER AL
MOST ANNIHILIATED.
II Piaye Line Can Be Held for Few
Days Longer, Tide Will be
Turned, 1t Is Said.

Italian Headquarters in Northern
Italy, Saturday, Nov. 1.-THE bat
tie of the Piave river, as it will be
known. now has developed to stage
where the enemy's first attempts to
make a breach in the Italian lines
have failed. This defensive result
has not only been accomplished by
the Italian army, but time has been
secured to effect that recovery from
the retreat which will permit the
army to resume it's offensive power
as we'll as it's defensive
The enemy was taking full advan-
tage of the delicate period after the
retreat knowing that every day count
ed for the restoration of the solidity
of the Italian force. In this knowl-
edge, too, the Italian supreme COM
nand is proceeding methodically.
Tide Will Turn.
One hears talk in high quarters to-
night if the Piave line holds an
other few days the tide will be turn
ed as it's successful defense through
SIX fearful days has established that
the enemy has line limitation.
Thus far nothing beyond battal-
ions have crossed the river. Only at
Zenson and at Grisolera are there any
serious Judgments on the west bank
OF the Piave and today the enemy
was forced back to the river at Zen
son and elsewhere. 1t is because the
Piave has resisted so well that the
enemy now is turning his attention
to the north and trying to make a
breach there, which he failed to make
on the Piave. The line on the north
runs along Asiago, Cismon and
Quero, and there the Italian position
remains virtually unchanged. In the
east, where the mountain line joins
the Piave the Italian position has
been moved a little farther back, not
in giving ground, but to solidify the
whole northern front from Mont Ton
darecar, on the west, to the PiaVe on
the east, thus consolidating the de-
tense at the center and on both of
the wings.

USEFUL MINERALS PASS.
Scattered Over Earth in Erratic De-
posts.

Useful minerals are very erratl-
cally scattered over the earth in de-
posits that are being exhausted at
an accelerating rate, and in the
time of. war a chief concern is the
availability of supplies of solid and
LIQUID fuel and of certain metals,
such as iron, copper and the ma
terials needed for special steels, in
cluding nickel, tungsten, molybdenum
and vanadium. The United States
is favored in it's possession of the
products most essential. Aside from
it's coal and oil, Frank L. Hess OF
the geological survey notes that the
country is immensely rich in iron,
copper, gold, silver, lead, zinc and
tungsten, and has comparatively
large deposites of such other metals
as mercury, molybdenum, titanium,
vanadium, uranium and radium. The
few metals of which there is a
scarcity-particularly nickel, cobalt
and tin-are supplied by friendly
countries. The great lack is tin, OF
which the deposits in the United
States proper are practically negil-
gible, and Alaska's yield of 14O tons
last year is Insignificant with an
annual consumption of 10000 to
$4,000 tons. The only important
source of supply in the western
Hemisphere is the mines of the Bo-
livia. with an output of 10000 tons
a year. The complete cutting OF OF
all tin imports would be simply an
inconvenience, and such substitutes
could be found as glass and aluminium
as food containers, and sheet zlnc'
lead and aluminium for tin-platlng
and tin plate, and folding and crlmp-
ing for soldering.

AMERICANS AMBUSH GERMANS.
Revenge in Part for Raid Huns Made
on Their Trench Recently.

With the American Army in
France, Nov. 4.-American 1nfan-
trymen exacted a part revenge for a
trench raid during a recent night by
ambushing a large German patrol IN
No Mans Land, killing or wounding
a number of the enemy.
The American patrol, in which
there were some Frenchmen, arrang-
ed the ambuscade near the German
lines in a shell-ruined farm.
After lying in the mud nearly all
night the patience of the watchers
was rewarded by the sight of a large
German patrol, its number more than
double that of the Franco-Ameri-
cans.
The Germans were permitted to
pass, when the Americans and French
on their flank opened a hot fire from
shell craters and other shelters where
they were secured.
The Germans were taken complete
ly by surprise and bolted, carrying
with them their men who had been
hit.
The number of dead and wounded
is uncertain, but none of the men in
ambush were hit by the bullets the
Germans later sent in from a dis
tance. There were congratulations
all around when the Americans and
French reentered their trenches.
During the last two nights the
Germans have continuously used ma
chine guns in the direction of the
American line. Shipping is becoming
more active on both sides. Ameri-
can sharp shooters are working close
to the German lines, especially when
the nights are clear.
The activity by enemy snipers thus
far has resulted in one American
casualty. A non-commissioned Off
Ger was hit in the head and killed.
