WHAT CATARRH IS

Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates general weakness Of
the body and local treatments in the
form of snuffs and vapors only irritate
and do little if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat
i.s cause by enriching your blood with
the oil-food in SCOTS Emulsion which
is a medicinal food and a building
tonic, free from any harmful drugs.
1t is helping thousands. Try it.

NEW YORK, Aug. .s.-Nlar-
shal Foch's blows are now fall
ing so fast and so definitely ct
50 many places along the West
ern front that Won Hindenburg
Is being entangled in a network
Of local operations, any one Of
which threatens to bring about .
major disaster to the German
army.
Yesterday Gen. Byng started work
on a salient in the direction OF Bau-
paume. Last night 60 miles away.
the western side OF the vesie salient
was practically completed. today the
British have begun a new wedge-like
drive north of the Somme. not far
from the Baupaumc operations: and
all the while the French are con-
Quoting squeeze operations at the
Lassigny angle. midway between
the Som-ne and the Vesle fronts.
AT no time since the war began
have local operations in the West
been carried on so consistently and
with such success as now.
Vast Results Due
Nor have the possibilities of a ma
jor allied success ever before been SO
threatening to the Germans. The
development of the western side Of
of the Nesle pocket Is
serious danger to the famous
Chemin des Danes defenses. which
are now threatened with flank and
rear fire. At the same time. tho
southern sector of the Hindenburg
line is insecure.
Farther north. the halt in Gen.
Byng's attack toward Baupaume il
in accord with the strategic plans OF
the allies. The present operations
are in no sense a major offensive.
and are being conducted under new
aud highly successful tactical tfirec-
tion for minimizing the allies casual
ties.
All the successes during the last
fortnight have been accomplished
without the aid of Americans. The
fact is the most menacing Hinden-
burg has TO face. II Foch can do
these things without the Americans.
what can't he do with them? There
is no answer to this question for the
kaiser. except Germany's defeat.
