Bad weather generally prevails along the entire western front, but neverthe- less, the Australians have again raided enemy positions near Warneton, which lies to the southeast of Ypres, and have taken more prisoners and several ma chine guns. This was the second ven- ture of the kind on the part of the Aus tralians in as many days, in which the enemy losses have been fairly high.
 LOMBARD BRITISH LINE
 The Germans. after having heavily bornbarded the British lines west of Lens, launched an attack, but the Brit ish easily repulsed it, inflicting heavy casualties on the Teutons and taking number of prisoners.
 As in France and Belgium. the weather conditions on the Austro-Italian front also are extremely bad, with snowstorms in the mountains and heavy rains in the plains. During breaks in the storm, however, patrol parties have been active duels of considerable violence also have taken place on various sectors.
 RUSSIAN SITUATION
 In Little Russia the Austro-Hungarian forces are still going forward against the bolshevik troops, driving them hith- CT and thither with the purpose of re- storing .'order'' and security in the Ukraine. In the north, although Ger man official communications previously announced that hostilties against the Russians had ceased, an unofficial dis patch from Petfngrad dated Monday announces that Narva, 100 miles south west of the capital, had been taken by the Germans, who are reported to be continuing their advance toward Petro- grad. In addition, German airplane is said to have bombed Petrograd Monday afternoon and zeppelins were seen short distance outside of the city flying toward the capital but were driven off by anti-aircraft batteries.
 TO EvACUATE PETROGRAD
 Still further advices from Petrograd indicate that the bolshevik councils pur- pose to use the time intervening be- tween the signing of the peace with Germany and the date set for it's rati- fication, March F, to evacuate the cap ital, destroying all stores of provisions and war materials which cannot be re- moved, and possibly to organize a red guard army to defend the country against the invader.
 Sir Eric Geddes the first lord of the British admiralty, in an address to the House of Commons, spoke enthusiastically of the successes that are being achieved by the entente allied warships, which. he said, were destroying underwater boats in increasing numbers.

Let DR.. Williams Pink Pills Guard Your
Home.

Everyone cannot have perfect health
but unless you have an organic disease it
is generally possible to improve your
physical condition by attention to the
rules of health, the first of which is TO
keep the blood built up. So great is the
necessity of Keeping the blood rich and
red, that it is also of the greatest i'm
portance that we know how to recognize
the thinning of the blood which leads to
dangers of many kinds.
Pure blood is the force that guards the
body against the disease germs that are
in the air we breathe, in the food we eat,
in the water we drink There is a con
slant battle between these disease germs
and the red corpuscles that swarm in
healthy blood. That is why so many peo-
Pile exposed to disease do not contract it,
Those whose blood is weak and therefore
lacking in defensive power are most liza

that healthy, red-blooded people are less
liable to attacks of cold and the grip
than are pale, bloodless people.

SEALING HIS DOOM

A person may do considerable
talking harmful to his government
and adverse to public opinion and
"get away with it," but when he
throws discretion to the four winds
and breaks out in cold print with his
warped ideas, his name is generally
mud" in much shorter space of
time than he realizes. That is what
is going to happen to Henry Ford.
Ford is quoted as saying that "our
moneyed men want more wars so
that our boys can lose more 1egs;'
also that when this war is over the
flag will be taken down from my
factory never to be unfurled there
again"
In addition to this everyone
knows that Ford's son is a Stacker.
And now Ford is going to run a
newspaper. Just give him a little
rope--he will soon zeal his own fate.
Thanks to the voters Of Michigan,
Ford was not elected United States
