Convinced that General Korniloff's
rebellion is definitely at an end, all
though the general himself has not
formally surrendered, the leaders at
Petrograd are setting about the recon-
struction of the government. Forma-
ton of new cabinet is said to be.
well along toward completion.
The. submission of SO many of the
troops and leaders who were adher-
ing to General Korniloff apparently
has left the leader Of the revolt help
less. He is said to have notified the
government of his intention to sur
render upon the arrival at his head
quarters Of General Alexieff, who; has
become chief of staff under Premier
Kerensky, now chief of
the Russian armies.
Meanwhile the Russian army at the
front, particularly in the northern
section, is displaying fighting spirit,
and, according to the official state
ment, is regaining some of the ground
recently abandoned to the Germans in
the Riga district. Several villages
have been occupied, probably in a
movement to consolidate the Russian
position and organize defensive line
which would be cohesive in case OF
attack. j ss73i
Activity on the other battle fronts,

A proper condition of the teeth is a

ing to Augustus S. Downing, Assist
ant Commissioner for Higher Educa-
ton Of the State Department at Al

1T has been found" Mr.. Downing
says, "that many men in the English
army have had to return from the
front on account of their teeth. They
are not able to masticate properly the
army rations, were not properly nour-
ished. and could not stand the strain
Of life in the trenches. They we're re-
turned to England, sent to dentists,

Stories were told at the recent con-
gress Of school hygiene of the changes
wrought In school children by dental
treatment. Stupid children became
bright; ugly children became pretty
and disagreeable ones good tempered.

Washington, April l0--With the
view to using commercially the Ger
man merchant vessels In American
harbors to meet the shortage OF ocean
carriers, government agents have be-
gun thorough examination of the
ships to fix definitely the cost and
time required to make them sea-
worthy. The machinery Of most Of
them was seriously damaged by their
crews when the United States broke
relations with Germany. Prepare
tons also have been made to rush to
completion as rapidly as possible
wooden cargo carrying vessels to be
built under the Shipping Board. Ma
jor General George Cocktails, builder
of the Panama Canal, probably will
be asked to take general charge OF
this work.
In addition, the government Is So.
riously considering the ACCESSIBILITY
Of requisitioning a portion of all the
fleet Of American vessels engaged in
the Atlantic coastwise trade, some of
which are owned and operated by
railroad interests.
The administration considers that

ocean going vessels to carry food and
other supplies to Europe and possibly
the most pressing questions facing
the government. 1t is receiving the
personal attention of President Will

net as well as members of the Ship
