Avoid Its Dangerous Stage.
There is a more serious stage of
Catarrh than the annoyance caused
by the stopped-up air passages, and
the hawking and splitting and other
distasteful features.
The real danger comes from the
tendency Of the disease to continue
its course downward until the lungs
become affected, and then dreaded
consumption is en- your path. Your

lnprOyisiOnS the outcome varied from
unchanged figures to 10c off.
Notwithstanding a general DISPOSE
ton to await actual results Of the pri-
Crity mandate, a noticeable easier feel
ing became evident in the corn trade.
The order was taken to mean that all
box car equipment suitable for haul
ing grain would be restricted to such
business and would be utilized to the
utmost limit in the territory west Of
Chicago. At the same time, the en-
hargOes preventing the movement of
corn east of here are to remain in
force. Warmer weather counted also
as bearish factor, especially as no
severe low temperatures were eX-
pected for at least several days.
Oats were under much selling pres
sure, largely as result of renewed
talk of possible establishment Of a

ton of the Austrian cabinet led also
to considerable unloading.
Provisions weakened because of
larger receipts of hogs than had been

Vaughn Picked by Writers
as Man Who Will Start
Games.

Chicago. Sept. 3.-The Chicago Ma
tionals returned from Pittsburgh to-
day and began preliminary practice
for the opening game of the worlds
series here tomorrow with the Bos-
ton Red Sox, champions of the Amer
ican league. Ideal baseball weather
is predicted for the initial contest.
After a heart to heart talk with his
men, Manager Fred Mitchell ordered
them to report at the American
league park in the afternoon for a
practice session in which the Cubs
acquainted themselves with the lights
and shadows Of the grounds. Charles
A. Comiskey, president of the Chica-
so Americans, present world cham
pions, has invited Manager Barrows
to hold a practice session at the
grounds on the arrival of the Red
Sox. probably late today.
Jim Vaughn, the big southpaw, has
been picked by Chicago sport writer's
as the probable choice Of Manager
Mitchell for the opening game, while
the baseball rialto guesses that Bos-
tons side wheeler, Carl Mays, will
start for the Red Sox, with Ruth as
a second choice. Mays peculiar de-
livery, the like of which the National
league Champions have not met, has
led fandom to believe that he. will
start off baseballs earliest champion
ship games.
Ticket reservations for the games,
which in price will be the cheapest on
record. have been far better than was
anticipated, according, to Walter

lBv the Associated Press.

On a front OF virtually nifty
miles. from just below Ypres to
a point near Peronne, on the
Sor.rle, the German armies are
in retreat.
This retrograde movement is
not a voluntary one on the part
of the enemy, but has been fore
ed by the series of unremitting
hammer blows inflicted by Mar
shall Foch in the past six or seven
weeks. 1t has now been accelerat-
ed by the notable victory won by
Field Marshal Haig yesterday in
breaking through the strong de-
fensive lines protecting the rail-
way .centers of Douai and Cam
brai, and threatening to outfank
even the main Hindenburg line
south to St. Quentin.
Already the taking of 10000
prisoners by the British in their
advance is reported and the Ger
man casualties in killed and
wounded are declared to have
been notably heavy as their thick
1y massed forces felt the weight
of the British blow.
So pronounced and so speedy is
the German retirement that it
seems as if the enemy, if he has
not met with disaster, is perilous-
ly on the verge of one.
Retreat is Fast.
In what appears like an effort
to escape in time the scope of the
German retirement, which has
been proceeding somewhat leis-
urc!y both north and south of the
Somme, has been markedly ac-
centuated north of that river.
In this movement the import
ant coal mining city of Lens, at
the gates of which the British
pounded vainly virtually all last
YEAR has been evacuated, the
British moving in.
| To the north, in Flanders, the
retreat is continuing and the
British have further closed up the
Lys salient by taking possession
of Wulverghem, two miles south
of KENNEL.

parently are acknowledging
