Czechs and MagyarS Fought
TO Death i'm Their First
Battle on Austrian Front

Washington, Sept. 25.-German
and Magyar troops have been de-
feated by a Czecho-Slovak unit on
the italian front in a fierce battle
which was concluded by the Czechs
in a desperate attack with daggers,
says an official dispatch today from
Rome.
This action. the first in Italy, in
which the CZecho- Slovaks operated
as unit in their regular formation,
took place on the Trentino front last
Saturday The enemy launched the
attack prepared with the greatest
secrecy, east Of Lake Garda. 1t ap-
pears from the dispatches that the
Germans and Magyars had no defin-
ite territorial objective. but planned
the stroke In the hope Of gaining
support for the Austrian claim that
the Chechs would give hay voluntar-
lily when faced by the army Of the
country that so long has held them
in subjugation. u
It is believed in Rome and by Of
ficials of the Czecho-SIovak head
quarters here that If the Austrians
had achieved even a local success
they would, after executing as trail
tors any Czecho- -Slovaks taken prts-
oner: have again affirmed that the
Czechs do not wish to fight against
Austria.
In describing the battle. the dis
patch says the assault was begun at
daybreak by picked detachments
composed exclusively Of Magyars
and Germans under General Schies-
ser.
The attack followed a destructive
artillery fire in which thousands Of
gas shells were used. The Czecho-
Slovaks went over the top to meet
the foe. and the first column was
forced to retire. The second column,
after desperate fighting. succeeded
in occupying portion of the
Czecho- Slovak position, but were
driven out after a bloody battle. No
prisoners were taken by either side.

MORE STRENGTH
IN CORN MARKET

Chicago, Sept 25.-Corn developed
considerable strength today as a re-
suit of noticeable falling off in the
receipts. Besides, pit offerings were
light and shorts and commission
houses were buyers. There seemed to
be no immediate prospect that the ban
would be lifted which had stopped the
issuance Of permits for shipments
from country points. Opening quota
tions. which ranged from 1s to 1c
higher, with October $1.48 to 4 and
November $l.45% to B,. were followed
OF a reaction.
Government buying gave strength
to oats. Other trading, though, was
light. After opening a shade to Il c
higher, with October 1874 to u, the
market continued to ascend.
PROVISIONS responded to advances in
the value of grain and hogs.

NOTICE RETAIL DRUGGISTS
NO MORE VAPORUB DIRECT !.
BUY IT FROM YOUR JOBBER

sible for us TO nil these promptly, and
instead Of distributing our goods
more quickly. they are really slowing
UP the process.
We believe that we can serve you
better now by, reverting to III former
policy Of shipping. exclusively thru
the jobber, and, effective immediately,
no more drop shipments will be made.
/, While we have put on a night shift
and have, thereby. about doubled our
production, we are still unable to fill
back orders and won't be able TO
give each jobber all the VapoRubShe
wants. Hence, it will be necessary for
the jobbers to continue distributing
VapoRub in small lots only. But we
will be able to furnish each jobber, at
least twice the quantity Of VapoRub
that he purchased for the correspond
ing month last year, so there should
not be any difficulty in your getting
your pro rata share.
We feel that the public appreciates
the service that the retail and whole
sale drug trade have rendered the
country in this time of stress. We
wish to express to both branches OF
the trade Dur thanks for the kind Coz
operation extended us in our effort to-
meet this emergency.

The Adventures Of the Little People of r.
the Great Forest
The Beavers Save the Robins.

Benny Mink and Sammy 'Muskrat
were bound to eat those Robins in
their nests on the roofs of the Beav-
ers' houses. Benny and Sammy were
old hands at this robbing Of nests;
and they were very SLY and cunning
in the trick.
They waited until they heard the
Beavers cutting down trees in the
Great Forest; and they planned to
climb up on their roofs, when they
were away from home (when they
would find the Robins asleep in their
little beds) and when the Beavers
couldn't protect the songsters.'
You would have trembled, il you
climb out on the bank. near the Beav-
ers' houses, and sneak along the
Beavers run-ways, in the deep grass,
until they reached the houses!
And in the darkness they got up
on their hind legs. and, began to
climb up the side Of Father Beavers
house. They were still as mice. and
the Robins didn't hear their enemies
and were fast asleep. A
The ~songsters seemed lost, for now
Benny and Sammy were within a few
feet of the sleeping singers.
But just as Sammy Muskrat and
Benny Mink were climbing up the
side of Father Beavers house; and
as their hind legs were about q foot
above the ground, two Beavers darted
around the side Of the house, and
grabbed these two rascals firmly by
their hind legs.
They held them tight, and gave the
Beavers signal of danger!
Sammy Muskrat and Benny Mink
put up an awful fight; but they could
no more get away from Tom and
Jerry Beaver, than they could have
gotten out of the jaws Of a powerful
steel-trap!
When the other Beavers came up,
Tom Beaver cried out. Father. how
shall we punish these r~ascals?"
And Father Beaver answered,
