West of Cambria, where the Germans
met with serious repulse in an at
tempt to check the British operations in
the south, Field Marshal Haig has struck
back at the enemy and retaken the
strong point of Moeuvres, on the Canal
du Nord, which was captured by the
enemy earlier in the week. The Germans
thus lost the only gain they have made
in the fighting since Monday on the
CambraiSt. Quentin front The British
have added more prisoners to the total

lMalmaison, which dominated the ridges
on the west, the enemy Thursday night
hurled five attacks against the French
All the attempts were broken up with
extremely heavy casualties for the Ger
mans.

effective remedy for a bad cold, sore

which means a big dose of calomel al
bed time. But as the old style cal.
omel has some very unpleasant and
dangerous qualities physicians and
druggists are now recommending the
improved neusealess calomel calles
"Calotabs" which is purified and re-
fined from the sickening and danger
GUS effects and whose medicinal cir
tues are vastly improved.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
