There is a movement on foot to
start an educational propaganda with
in the German empire, to inform the
people of those countries of the real
demands that the other nations Of the
world make. One writer suggests that
the best thing TO be done in that direc-
ton is to print two or three million
copies of the Ten Commandments in
the German language and distribute
them over the whole OF the country by
airpIanes.-Omaha World-Herald.

ing, and that is the charm Of charms
in midsummer. White pumps and
stockings might be worn with it to
the best advantage.
Among these new silk suits there is
one having a coat with three founces
set in across the back that is very
pretty. It has narrow pockets set on
at each side with rows Of small but
tons, and q belt Of the silk. These
belts, in many silk suits, extend around
the waist in the most straightforward
and matter-of-fact manner, which is
another point Of departure from
style in cloth suits. The most popular
colOrs are navy, taupe and black, but
light cOlors, as sand gray or white
have a daintiness that compensates
for their being shorter lived.

Moderninu China.

That China is being mOdernized
faster than most of US may think is
indicated by the increased use of the
telephone in that vast country. It
also is worthy of note that although
practically the whole equipment comes
from abroad and is to a considerable
extent operated by foreigners, the
prices for service are much below
those to which we are accustomed in
this land of high prices.

ITALIANS CHECK
new HUN DRIVE
NOT ONLY STOP AUsrRIANs, BUT
lNFLICT TERRIBLE LOSSES
UPON THE INVADERS.
Present Offensive Most Ambitious Aus
tria Has Attempted in Any Theatre
During War, Hurting Entire Forces
Against Defenders.

ROme.-The Huns have launched a
new drive against the Italian forces,
the biggest offensive of the campaign.
The drive began as though the Ger
man and Austrian leaders expected to
go right on through, but they have
failed to realize their expectation Not
only have the gallant italian forces
stopped the followers of the kaiser,
but they have dealt terrible losses to
the invaders
In their attempt to cross the Piave
Saturday, the Austrians had the city
Of Treviso as their objective. In get
ting across, the Austrians paid tre-
mendOus sacrifice before the machine
gun fire of the Italian defenders Of
the western bank.
COunterattacks by Italian infantry
and heavy italian artillery fire have
forced the enemy to retire from most
of his gains along the river.
An order found in the pockets Of
prisoners was to the effect that the
Austrians were to be at Preganziol,
south Of Treviso, on Saturday night.
''The Austrian offensive" telegraphs
the war correspondent of the Corriere
Della Sara, "is the most ambitious Aus
tria has attempted in any theatre dur
ing this war.
"The entire weight Of all her forces
has been hurled against the Italians.
"A thousand guns were concen-
trated in the Trentno against sim
gle Italian army. while 1900 guns en-
placed between the Astico and the
Brenta gave an example of the artil-
lery force on the whole front.
Old Drives Renewed.
''The Austrian aim Is to break
through into the Brenta valley, over.
whelming the Italians in the narrow
Frenzella valley, enabling themselves
to debouch from Valstagna.
''The present drive is thus re
sumption of the offensive foiled III
May, 1916 and again in 1917. The
same general, Conrad Won Hoetzen
dorff, is directing the attack. This
time he has the greatest force at his
Z disposal that he has ever commanded
Nevertheless the Italian high com
mand is entirely calm and composed
confident of the ultimate outcome"
