Liberatina Two Departments.

Tomorrow, or the day after. two French departments, those of the Disc and Aisne, will be liberated from the German invader, according to reports from the fighting front. The total territory now regained is roughly calculated at 620 square miles. The nature of the ground over which the Germans retreated was almost all against them and they were harried by cavalry, which lis now being used in force for the first time since the battle of the Marne
 At few points where nature of fered an opportunity for resistance, the Germans tried to make a stand and fell back only after considerable fighting
 In this district the French have restored the line which existed be- fore the battle of Crouey, fought in the spring of 1915.
 The newspapers are overioyed, al- though comment is moderate and even cautious. Le Petit Parisien be- lieves that the rapid retreat of the Germans very probably conceals some design, but that there can be no doubt. that notwithstanding the great confidence inspired by Won HindenbHrg, the German public will learn with stupefaction of the evac- uation of a region where so many Germans have fallen.

the stock disease is not confined to
irrigated areas, but affects the cat
tie on highlands as we'll, showing a

been sent to the county in an effort
to stamp out the disease and protect
herds on ranches not already affected.

plain white shaft, writes correspond
ent Of the Boston Globe. Deep cut into
its shining side Is name dear to me
above the names Of men. Not for all
the glories Of America, from Plymouth

age when a national crisis had to be

ness and willingness to offer up on
their country's bloody altar all that

Tint this nation would have persisted

A refinement Of cruelty is the torture
OF the 'iron glove" as 1t Is called.
which used to be common In Morocco,
A lump of quicklime is placed in mans
hand, which is closed up into a fist.
Then the fist is tightly bound with
leather thongs and plunged into tub
Of cold water. The agony soon becomes
extreme. The torture is continued for
eight or ten days, until in the end NOR.
LITIGATION ensues and probably death.
