To Cut Paper.

When you lose your knife CT do not nave pair of scissors at hand for cut ing the paper a common pin or needle of any kind serves the purpose admir- ably, says Popular Science Monthly. IT it Is single sheet from which the clipping is to be removed, lay the part on another paper, hold the pin slant wise so that the point will follow around the clipping, just as if tracing its outline. Pass back over the scratch with the point in the lead and you will be surprised how smoothly the piu cuts the paper.

> In this, perhaps the most critical period of the war, the United States is to launch three billion dollar Lib erty loan campaign, and the results are net uncertain. From every class money will come forth in abundance. The multi-millionaire will again buy literally, the large corporations will again invest generously. Of this class of Americans there can be no doubt. Previous Liberty bond sales have re- futed the charge that this lis rich mans war and poor mans fight"
 At this time the eyes of the world are turned to two classes of citizens in the United States-the farmer who has little money and the laboring man. Of the farmer much is expect ed. He is expected to not only feed himself and family, but produce sur- plus that the man in the city may be able to buy and live. Environment places the farmer where he may not occupy "place in the sun" in his unselfish efforts to sustain his coun- try and her allies. But the lot of the laboring man is different. His every effort to aid our government is known -and appreciated. His wages are certain and the opportunities for con- stant employment are many. The labor leaders of the United States are working and working hard in helping to "make the world safe for Democ- racy." But the leaders cannot do it all. Their efforts must be sustained by the members throughout this coun- try. Needless to say this will be done. But the members of organized labor should take their place in the great work of helping financing the gove- ernment. Just here The Graphic will agree with the statement of many that s'the cost of living has gone far ahead of wages" But at that, labor, as a body and as individual members, are as yet untouched by the horrors and sufefrings of this war.
 Prominent local labor leaders have been named to assist in the Third Liberty loan campaign. Plans will be submitted whereby the man earning a small salary and having large fam fly, may participte. He may buy War Savings stamps. The man who earns

TeI'ta!e Eyes and Toes.

The eyes tel the story of guilt when all the other muscles are controlled. This you will lsarn in the eleventh chapter of Darwi.is book. Sometimes, when the face is controlled, as in tho case of natives of India. other muscles are uncomfortable. Sir Kenry Maine declares that in India the judge can tell when native is lying by watch ing his toes. He keeps his face per fectly straight and his eyes express sionless, but his toes begin to wjgsie as soon as he begins to lie.

What are the probabilities as this slaughter of men on the western front proceeds? The allies have right to consider the probable finish rather than the present reverses. The extra ordinary efforts of the Huns cannot help but weaken them eventually, and as the allies are better fixed in men and resources than the Germans, this cannot help but have decisive re- suit on the final wind-up. While the Germans are weakening themselves the allies remain comparatively as strong as before, save for the compar- atively small loss of guns and men in the present debacle. The future-be it near or far distant-will eventually decide the war and 1t is hard to see where Hindenburg can win.

For downright gall, Hindenburg has has broken all records. He announced the contemplated drive weeks in ad- vance and invited neutral correspond ents to be on hand to see it. His state ments were ridiculed in England and not taken seriously for weeks. In the light of subsequent events this was a mistake. In these times even what appears to be joke should be consid- cred seriously until proven otherwise

way on to Epernay and Chalons. The
onrush Of the first day bent back the
allied line in places, but nowhere was
1t broken much Of the lost ground
was speedily regalned, and when the
second day came to a close 1t was
considered that the offensive had been
definitely stopped. None of Its OBJ
1ectives had been attained though the
German commanders employed about
100000 men In their fierce attacks.
Won Bernhard, the famous Prussian
strategist, once said an offensive which
is brought to a standstill IL con-
ouered offensive, and the allies took
that view Of the situation.
Ia
With pride and qualification Amer
lea learned Of the splendid part played
by its soldiers in this third battle of
the Marne. Some 100000 Of them
were involved, holding especially the
sectors just west and east Of Chateau
Thierry, and they acquitted them
selves In manner that won the I'M
qualified praise Of the French COM
manders. In the first place, they sus-
tanned a powerful assault on vaux,
west of Chateau Thierry, and though
forced out Of that village momentarily.

brilliant counter-attack. Then, far
Their to the east, at the Jaulgonne
bend of the Marine, they were called
on to check a tremendous rush Of
Huns across the river. Their advanced
line fell back, the guns all the time
slaughtering the Germans Msa --'rsss p
trying to get over with pontoons and
canvas boats. Then the main line
of defense came into action, changed
itself into a line OF offenss, and swept
the enemy back across or into the

great attack on q twenty-five mile
front between Belleau wood and the
Aisne river. The enemy was taken
completely by surprise, and the allies,
following a tremendous rolling bar
rage, advanced swiftly taking on the
first day more than twenty towns and
villages, many cannon and large num-
bers of prisoners. They then were
close to Scissors, commanding 1t with
their guns and were In the outskirts
Of Neuilly st. Front. Culchy, the key
to the Chateau Thierry sector, was
threatened; many of the railways and
roads Of supply for the German armies
In the south were cut or under she'll
FIRE, and 1t appeared that Ludendorff
would have to act quickly and power
fully or be driven entirely out Of the
Chateau Thierry salient If not back
to the Aisne.
AS this Ia written the battle In that
region is still going on, with the Ger
man resistance stiffened by the bring
ing up of fresh troops. The Franco
American drive at least served to les
sen the Hun pressure on the defensive
lines about Rein though 1t was pre-
mature to say thai the ancient cathe'
dral city would not have to be evacu-
ated, or that the Germans in the
Marne district had been beaten to
standstill. Severe as was their check,
they still had great forces In reserve.
