Glass Fruit Knife.

The ordinary steel or plated knife,
as every housewife knows, is attacked
by the acids of many fruits. making a
stain that is removed only with con-
siderable labor. A glass knife Is now
on the market which is quite imper-
vious to the most active fruit acid, and
1t takes good edge, though of course,
in view of its brittleness, a somewhat
thicker one than we are accustomed to-.
With a little of the care in washing
which even now must be bestowed up
on the china gravy ladle and similar
objects, this knife should prove very
acceptable for cutting grapefruit, lem
ons, oranges, etc.-Scientific American

SECOND B|G BATTLE
 HAS SETTLED DOWN
BRITISH AND FRENCH ALLIES HAVE MORE THAN HELD
 THEIR OWN.
EMPEROR OFF TO RUMANIA
German Troops Are Still Being Poured Into Finland-Russian Authorities Have Notified German Government
 That Treaty Is Being Violated.

New York.-The second phase of the great battle along the Somme, which the Germans began last Thursday, has died down. It lasted less than three days, and the fighting has resolved it., self into more or less isolated engage-' ments in which the French and Brit ish allies have more than held their own.
 The attention of the Germans for the present is mainly directed at the lower end of the battle zone, which apparently they are attempting to en- large for the purpose of getting elbow room in which 10 move their masses of troops.
 Meanwhile, General Foch, the com mander in chief of the allies, is biding his time, meeting the German assault with powerful resistance and here and there conforming his lines to the nec- essities of the battle. It is confidently stated at Paris that General Foeh will not be drawn into any false movs where each move is of such vital inn portance-but will strike with his re- serves at the moment chosen by him.
 There may be some significance in the report that the German emperor, after conference on the Western front with his chiefs, Von Hindenburg and Ludendorff. intends to proceed to Rumania. At the outset of the great Germans offensive, when it was sweeping the allied forces before it, notwithstanding their tenacious resist ance, Emperor William. it was an- nounced officially from Berlin, was In supreme command. This announce ment was regarded at the time as evi- dence that the emperor expected d complete and decisive victory.
 The official communication from German headquarters deals with the events of Saturday, when strong Britt ish infantry forces stormed the Ger man positions around Beaumont-H Ham, el and Albert, and French divisions brought up from other fronts" at tackled the Germans on the western bank of the Avre. These engagements, according to the German report, re- suited in failure for the allies.
 On the other hand, Field Marshal Haig's report says that a German at- tao kon the British line opposite AL bert was repulsed and that British counter-attacks in Aveluy wood placed the British in positions formerly held by them.
 German troops still are being pour ed into Finland and although the Rus sian authorities have made no furinal protest, they have notified the Ger man government that exception is talk en to the violation by Germany of pro- visions of the Brest-Litovsk treaty.
 Polish soldiers have been interned in Hungary, their legions having been dissolved by the Teutonic military au- thorities because of wholesale treas on in the ranks"
