CAPITAL HOPES
GERMANS DRIVE
IS WEARING OUT
Reports Indicate Austrians
Are Preparing for a Blow
Against Italians.

WASHINGTON, d. c., April 10
Hope that the force of the German
stroke toward the channel ports has
largely spent itself grew here today
as the British lines stood fast under
repeated shocks
The struggle for possession oil
Neuve Eglise and towns in that re
sion looks to observers here like an
effort by the enemy to force a way
behind Ypres and the consequent
abandonment of that place and a
withdrawal of a large section of the
British line
Every hour gained by the British in
holding ground in this sector means
increased probability that they will
hold it permanently. Time allows the
assembling Of supporting forces in
sufficient strength to meet any shock
Look Toward the Future.
1t is possible that the plans Of Gen
Foch hinge upon developments in this
narrow sector of the broad battle
front. Such moves as he may be con-
templating may well depend, it is said,
upon the sterilization of the allied left
flank. On the right the French ap-
pear to have succeeded in effecting
such sterilization. Presumably any
plans for a counter offensive would
be dependent upon these two posi-
tons
There is no question but that many
officers here view the situation as Sc
rious. They do not all share the hope
full outlook indicated by the war col
lege review for last week Even if
the present thrust toward Bethune is
checked they believe a third assault
at some other portion of the British
front is to be expected.
Expects Blow in Italy
There nave been many reports in
dicating that the Austro-H Hungarian
forces were preparing for a drive
against the Italians. When it will be
started cannot be foretold, but some
observers think that in case of def
mite check to the German movement
the Austrians would launch their eff
fort.
In that case the scene of operations
on the west front might shift far to
the south TO the area where American
troops are on the front The railway
junction through which French or
British forces sent to Italy naturally
would pass lies behind that sector. 1t
is believed possible that the Germans
might throw their weighe in that di-
rection in an effort to prevent any
support reaching Italy.

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism
Discovercr Tells Druggists Not TO Take
Cent of AnyOne's Money Unless
AlIenrhu Completely Banfshes All
Rheumatic PainA and TNNingeA.


Rheumatic Pains and TSNinges.
Mr.. James Fl. Allen suffered for years
with rheumatism. Many times this ter
rible disease left him helpless and un-
able to work.
He finally decided after years Of
ceaseless study. that no one can be free
from rheumatism until the accumulat-
ed impurities, commonly called uric
acid deposits, were dissolved in the
joints and muscles and expelled from
ihe body
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and fin
ally compounded a prescription that
quickly and completely banished every
sign and symptom of rheumatism from
his system
He freely gave his discovery to
others who took it, with what might be
called marvellous success. After years
of urging he decided to let sufferers
everywhere know about his discovery
through the newspapers. Druggists
handle Allenrhu in this vicinity with
the understanding that they will freely
return the purchase money to all who
state they received no benefit.-Adv.
