MAP SHOWS THE ALLIES HAVE MADE STEADY GAINS
Germans Fighting Desperately to Hold Onto Ground in Their Posses. sion--Bomb Dropping Avlators Make It Hard for the Huns to Make q Stand.

London, July 23.-The French att tack near Mont Didier was very well , executed and a skillful minor opera ton, and according to dispatches re- ceived this evening from the battle- ! front, was presumably designed as a diversion, aiming at keeping the en- emys mind occupied and preventing him from sending large reinforce ments to the southward.
 At the same time it also effected an important local improvement in the line at a sector where every ad- vance means better protection for Amiens and Paris. The French at- tackled on four mile front after an hours bombardment of the German lines and captured three villages within fifteen minutes, About. ,000 more prisoners have been counted by the entente allies in the past 24 hours. Of this number about half have been credited to the Am orleans and British, but the allies just now are far too busy to devote much time to the counting of prisoners.
 Fighting of the fiercest character continues and the present to and fro struggling all along the Soissons- Rheims loop is very close, strenuous work and probably not so many pris- oners are being taken as would be the case in direct advance or a re- treat action.
 There has been little change in the past 24 hours in the appearance of the Soissons Rheims pocket as 1t appears on the map. What changes have been made there are all to the advantage of the allies. The French and Americans have gained further ground in the bottom of the pocket. The French are also pressing hard on the long line south of Soissons and the map shows advances of a thousand yards or so at several points.
 The expectations of those who thought that the Germans were pre- pairing to give up immediately the entire Soissons- Chateau Thierry- Rheims salient and retire to the Vesle river or the Aisne have not yet been fulfilled.
 According to today's dispatches the Germans are fighting their hardest to hang on to every foot of ground he has and is constantly counter at tacking with surprising momentum, both on the Marne and along the west side of the salient
 It is true, of course. that this is exactly what the Germans would be likely to do If he were in the pro- cess of retreat, but the allies so far have had no definite indication that the German has made up his mind that a general retirement will be necessary. The Germans are burn ing villages and some small towns. but presumably a further prodding will be needed to push him back to the river Vesle.
 Meanwhile. the entente allies. not only the infantry, but also the ar tillery and bomb dropping aviators. are working without rest at the business of making either stand or -------------------

Washington July 23-With prob ably not much more than a quarter of a million of American troops en- gagged in the present battle, but with virtually million others, either ;n i France or bastening across the ocean to join in the right, general , Foch has been able to turn the tables
 on the enemy and strike a blow that has changed the whole trend of the war.
 Officials here, while fully recog- nizing the fact that the Americans are today only comparatively sman part of the vast forces the supreme commander is using in working out
 his strategic designs, realize the fact that the American army is going for ward in a constantly increasing stream is the governing factor in re- storing the initiative 10 the allied forces
 Plans are therefore taking shape rapidly at the war department to ac- celerate and enlarge the American military program
 It is now virtually certain that Gen eral Foch will have at least two mil lion American troops 10 supplement his allied armies before the present fighting season closes
 Secretary Baker announced today the war depariments new program embraces enlarged army appropria- tions. notifications Of the drait ages
 to increase the reservoir of fighling men and plans for a larger mobili- zation of the army than any yet un dertaken would soon be ready for congress. He would give no details, but the plans probably aim at getting
 under arms without delay a toial force not far short of the five million figure widely discussed in congress when the subject was last under con-
 sideration there. The fi2hting in the
 Aisne section where the whole Ger man offensive scheme has been upset, if not definitely defeated by the bold strategy of General Foch, has opened new possibilities. There is increased need for haste in the opinion of of ficials, in getting full Amercan man power ready to supplement the eff forts that appear now to be taking shape toward hurling the enemy back all along the front and beginning the
 advance that)will end only when vic tory has been achieved.
 Reports today indicated that fully one half of all ground won by the Germans in the Aisne salient already
 has been torn from the enemy's grasp,
 and the French, British and American
 troops were still pressing on at last accounts
 i MT. Baker said today that the last renorts from General Pershing were
 satisfactory. 1t was clear however
 that the minds of the officials here
 are engrossed in preparations for or
 fensive battles on an even larger
 scale
 The German offensive arch in ! France has rested on two great pill
 lars. one in the Picardy front. 1t has | been repeatedly stated that the rreesing home of this mighty pincer movement, threatening both Paris | and the channel ports as it pro- gressed, has been the German object from the finst day the battle of 1918
 was opened last March.
 The southern pillar of that arch has now been sravely weakened. Its

With the American Army on the Aisne-Marne Front July 23.-tlnfor- nation reaching the intelligence de partment of the American army to- night indicated that the Germans were still continuing their retreat Far behind their lines they are be- ing subjected to a heavy fire by both French and American guns, which doubtless is hampering the movement of their enormous supplies.
 The American and French troops fighting south of Soissons have cap tured four German tanks which were operating against them in conjunc- ton with the German infantry. The allied artillery immediately spotted the tanks as they came into action and quickly put one of them out of commission. Four others quickly re- treated.
 The fighting continued through out today north and northeast of Chateau Thierry. The Germans, by no means were slack in accepting the allied challenges and struck back with great vigor The fighting i'm mediately north of Chateau Thierry was so fierce as to almost rob it of the suggestion that it lwas a rear guard action. Nevertheless it was known that while the intense strug- o1o uoc rrooroccinO tho x4rorly nf moving stores was under way
 At least at one point the fighting was more nearly in open order than has been usual. With a minimum ar tillery fire by both sides the Ameri- cans advanced their skirmish line over yellow wheat fields. dotted with poppies and through clumps of wood.
 1t was Indian lighting modemized ny machine gun work.
 The Germans left on the field a great number of machine gunners in nests. Many of these guns were cap tured and the entire personnel of q machine gun company tonight is swelling the already big list of prls- oners taken by the Americans.
 Northwest of Chateau Thierry the artillery played an important part. Here the Americans encountered re- sistance. a village in this sector be- ing reduced by the American guns, as it's occupation by the Germans was imminent. The enemy was thus forced into the open where heavy punishment was inflicted
 A driZzling rain fell oyer the bat tlefields and made arelal operations almost impossible in the morning, but it cleared somewhat in the after noon and the flying men went up Their work, however. was limited. Late in the day the German planes attempted to take observations on the Marne and the anti-air gun rem dered their mission highly doubtful
 Prisoners captured by the Ameri- cans declare they were forced into action hy their officers Who moved behind the lines with pisto's, threat ening to shoot the first who faltered. This information is not highly valued by the American officers. who explain that though it may be true the Ger man organization methods of diseip- line are still in the ascendancy
 Much more significance is attached to reports scf advances, every one of which reduces the chances of the Germans sending up sufficient sup plies which are greatly needed.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS Do
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily, when UNI
healthy some part of this impure mat
ter is left in the blood. This brings
on many diseases and symptoms
which vary widely but may include
pain in the back, headache, nervous
ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatic pains,
govt, gravel, disorders of the eyesight
and hearing, dizziness, irregular heart.
