AUsTRo- HUNGARIAN HELP,

From late reports it is indicated that Austro- Hungarian endorsements have been brought up for the strengthening of the Teutonic divis- iOns along the western front. This is earned through the prisoners which he French have taken in the Woevre region and it is presumed that these are troops which have recently been brought from the dual monarchy rather than those who may have been sent previously before the serious set- back which Austria received from it's recent offensive against the Italian forces.
 Such being the case it is quite evi- dent that new pressure has been brought to bear upon the main ally of Germany to furnish support for the western front regardless o. the situa tion which prevails at home and the need which it has for it's troops on it's own front There is no indication as to how extensive a force has been brought into the Woevre region from Austria but while it shows the need which Germany has for more man power it cannot fail to impress Italy with the fact that If such transfers have taken place on anything like ar extensive scale a new opportunity has been provided foE it to open up an offensive in that part of the wal zone.
 It was not long ago that the dua monarchy declined to respond to the German appeal for help of this kind Circumstances have recently showr the German position to be much more desperate and it is possible that this bituation has overbalanced previou: refusals. although it has been clearly shown that all things are done 1T Austria Hungary according to German dictation.

USE OF PLAsTERs.

Pains in the chest, due to irritation or of purely muscular origin, are re- lieved by the application of mustard plasters. For adults equal parts of -four and mustard are mixed with hot water. For children and elderly peo- pie little more flour is employed The amount required is determined by the size of the plaster, which should be of ample size to cover the chest, then after remaining there for ten minutes or longer, according to the Burning sensation. remove it to the back, where the lungs are nearer the surface
 Plasters should always be applied warm, otherwise chill is easily in- dueed. A quick mustard plaster may be made from a large slice of bread with edges trimmed, and thick ly sprink1ed with ground mustard over this spread a thin muslin cloth
 saturated with vinegar and wrune out. The vinegar prevents a blister

 After the fumes of the oil have had time to do their work-say from ten to twelve hours-wind and start the clock, and if nothing is broken it will run

WHITE SILK WELLS.

Pure silk veils in white, rather coarse mesh, come in large rectangu lar Shape, to be thrown gracefully over the brim of summer sailors; the mesh, quite open over the face and hat, grows finer at the bottom of the veil, and a sprawling flower design is woven into this finer mesh. These white silk veils give a dressy effect to the sport or semisport costume, and they are very graceful, floating about, in a summer breeze. Best of all, they may be washed in soap and water and dried in ones room overnight. If pinned out while damp over a pillow they require no ironing.
