EASY to Exterminate Skunk.

Some authorities hold that skunks
are the most abundant of all wild ami
mails. This is hard to believe after
one has long watched the squirrels and
the rabbits, but it may be true. 1t
must be remembered that the daylight
skunks are the exceptions, and that
most of the tribe only show themselves
by starlight For all we know, every
field may be chock full of skunks at
midnight. If it be true that they are
our most plentiful species it must be
apparent that the harm they do is not
tremendous. 1t would be compare
lively easy to exterminate them as so
many of our small woodland species
have been exterminated. Besides,
skunk pelts are valuable. With the
double incentive of revenge and profit
skunk hunters should be able to make
mephitiS extinct in few years.

front. northwest of Chateau Thierry,
in brilliant bayOnet attack drove the
Germans from Veuilly wood.
Here the enemy was attempting TO
establish himself after occupying the
village of Veuilly-la-Poterie In severe
fighting
The Germans poured heavy ma
chine gun fire into the American ranks,
, but the Americans rushed forward and
DESTROYED the hastily erected machine
gun positions on the edge Of the woods.
Continuing their advance they en-
gagged the Germans at close quarters
and cleared them entirely from their
positions, driving them back upon the
ruined village.
In sharp combat, marked by the
fierceness of the allied machine gun
fire. French and American troops,
fighting side by side almost wiped out
small German forces which had reach
ed the left bank of the Marine. near
Jaulgonne, east of Chateau Thlerry.
Most OF the enemy survivors were
rounded up in small groups and made
prisoners.
On Monday, in the attack aga inst the
Germans at Veuilly, the Americans
drove them back one and half ktlo-
meters Ga mile) on the front of mar
row salient. The ground was cleared
of the enemy. The Americans now are
holding their position there. The
American losses, according to the lat
est report available, were exceedingly
slight. most of them resulting from
shell fire.
The first Americans to enter the
battle zone were troops of machine
gun battalion. They rode on trucks
during all Of Friday night and arrived
at their new position Saturday morn
ing. These were the troops which re-
pulsed the enemy forces which at
tempted to cross the Marine.
The machine gunners were stationed
within a certain town. They began
operations by poking the muzzles of
their weapons through broken walls,
bushes and holes knocked in the side
of houses. The guns were skillfully
hidden and the Germans were unable
to locate them.
The Germans shelled the town heavi-
I " and the Americans took positions
accordingly. Later the enemy entered
the outskirts, only to be pounded by
the allied artillery.
The other parts Of the new battle
line are almost without change. They
are evident signs the Germans are
withdrawing their specially trained
storming divisions which executed the
first assault.

too rapidly or too much, or of food
not suited to your digestive organs.
If you will eat slowly, masticate
your food thoroughly, eat but little
meat and none at all for supper, you
will more than likely avoid the sour

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
catarrhal deafness, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness is caused by an inf1amed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infiamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed. Deafness is the re-
suit Unless the inflammation can
be reduced and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which
is an inf1amed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medi-
cine acts thru the blood on the mu-
cous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars

paign; it will try to maintain it's for

right place." 1t gives each the ad-
vantage of the columns under paid

The Twin City Star intends to ex-

We have never known two injus-

Saturday News has prospered by be-
Ing as just to the white man as it has
ever been to the Negro. We have
never gone off half-cocked upon any
proposition. Whenever we grope, We
are in search Of the truth. We want
to be right and avoid as nearly as
possible being wrong. We are not
for the, Negro right or wrong. We
want him to be right. We complain
because a majority of white people
will always side with a white man
when a question arises between him
and one of our color; still certain col
ored newspapers, without making any
Investigation whatsoever as to the
evidence, would have the entire Ne.
gro race do identically what they con-
denim the white people for doing. Be
cause the white people do wrong is
no reason why the Negroes should
do wrong. The best preparedness to
receive justice is to be just yourself.
