ALLIES TAKE ONE THOUSAND
HUN OFFICERS
,SSu...;3.er OF Prisoners Captured So Far
iii ficaT,iy Drive Estimated at &c.
H90. Including Many Officers.

rar:>, Aug. 1.-THE number of
prisoners taken so far in the Allied
offensive in Picardy is now estimated
at $4,000, including more than 1000
officers. More than 500 guns have
been captured, according to the latest
advices.
The pivot of the German resistance
at this stage of the battle, it now ap-
pears. is the town CT Noyon, about
yidway between Montdidier and iSois-
sons. The enemy is throwing in re-
serves fom this base in an effort 70
prevent, regardless cf cost, the Allies
from gaining control of the Noycn-
Ham read, which is choked with ma y.
te~ial, guns and troops.
The Germans are expected to make
a desperate stand on the Rone-Noyon
line to permit the columns which are
retreaIing in the direction Of Nesle
and Ham to reach safety.
Hun Resistance Stiffening.
The resistance of the Germans is
stiffening against the Fourth British
army under Gen. Rawlinson. They are
reacting violently in the region Of
J.ihons, which chanped hands twice
during the night, but which this
morning was firmly held by the Brit
ish.
All the bridges across the Somme,
between Peronne and Ham, stretch
of about fifteen lies, have been de-
stroyed by Allied aviators The Ger
mans have baen attempting to throw
temporary bridges across the stream,
but the Allied airmen are now syste-
atically bombing these improvised
structures.
All the morning reports show ex-
treme confusion among the enemy
forces in their precipitate retreat.
Among the prisoners taken are gen
erals, colonels and officers of all
cher grades. Eleven divisions OF
Gems. Won Hutier ond Won Marwitz
have heen identified by prisoners
taken.

HOUSE BUILDING IN KOREA
Operations Always Begun by the cen-
struction of Most Ingenious
System Of Fiues.

When a Korean begins to build a
house he first lays down a system @,
fiues where the floor is to be. These
hues begin at a fireplace, usually
built in an outer shed or in a closed
alleyway connected with the house..
From the fireplace the fues branch
out like the ribs of fan and end in
q trench at the back of the floor space.
This trench, in turn, opens into
chimney, usually built at some dis
tance from the house. When the flues
are completed the builder carefully
covers them over with fiagstones; he
then cements the whole floor and COW
ers it with a sort of thick oiled paper
for which Korea is famous. The rest
Of the hou:e is then built round the
completed Hoor.
The heating system works in this
way: When it is time to cool: tie rice
for the morning meal the housewife
lights a little straw or brushwood in
the fireplace in the outer shed. While
the rice is cooking the heat from the
fireplace passes through the flues,
heating the stone flags of the floor
and diffusing pleasant warmth that
lasts until it is time TO prepare the
next meal. Two heatings a day gen
orally suffice to keep the floor warm.
On the floor the people sit by DAY and
sleep by night. The heavy oiled paper
that covers the floor prevents any
smoke from entering the room.

GIVE INSIGHT TO CHARACTER
Shape Of Eyebrows Reveal Vigor, In
sincerity, Lack Of Vitality, and
Many Other Things.

It is now conceded that the Greek
eyebrow is quite in accord with the
conception Of mere physical beauty in
women. Like the rosebud mouth, 1t
does not indicate the highest order of
intelligence and the arch is expressive
always Of greater sensibility and great
er sense of character, says London
Tit-Bits.
Scant growth of the eyebrows invari-
ably denotes lack Of vitality; on the
contrary, heavy, thick eyebrows indi-
cate a strong constitution and great
physical endurance. They are not
beautiful on a woman's face, however
much they may signify either mental
or bodily vigor, and when they are not
only heavy, but droop and meet at
the nose, they are disagreeable and are
said to accompany an insincere and
prying nature
Romantic women usually have very
well-defined arch in the center Of the
eyebrow. while sense Of humor is in
dicated in the arch nearer the nose.
Long, dropping eyebrows, lying wide
apart, indicate an amiable disposition.
Where the eyebrows are lighter in col
or than the hair, the indications are lack
Of vitality and great sensitiveness.
Family defined eyebrows placed high
above the nose are signs Of Incidence
and weakness.
Very black eyebrows give the face an
intense and searching expressing;
when natural, they accompany pas
sionate temperament. Very light eye
brows rarely are seen on strongly intel
lectual faces, although the color Of the
eyebrows is not accepted simply as de-
noting lack of intelligence; the form
gives the key to the faculties and their
direction. Red eyebrows denote great
fervor and ambition; brown, q Medium
between red and black.

BUDDHlsTs HOLD SPOT HOLY
Famous Pagoda, Built by Hermit, Has
Long Been Visited by Throngs
of Pious Pilgrims.

Sightseeing in Burma is apt to be
one pagoda after another, and ut that
the tourist misses most of them. One
that he usually does not see unless he
is especially energetic, or has an m
satiable taste for pagodas, is the
Kyaik-hto-yo pagoda, one of the most
holy spots in Burma in the eyes of
the Buddhist Burmese.
The Burmese say that the builder of
this pagoda was hermit, a theory
which seems probable enough, for it
is built on the top of steep hill in
a location which could appeal only to
one of solitary inclination. Even the
crest of the hill must have been too
close to the world for the holy man,
for he located his shrine On huge
bowlder, which may have been steady
enough in his day, but which now
seems ready at any time to slip Oft
into the valley several thousand feet
below.
Assured by the Burmese guide that
the rock has rested at this critical
angle for many centuries, the visitor,
already breathless from the reckless
ascent of a Burmese hill, climbs a
swaying bamboo ladder to view better
the old pagoda. The great rock, With
it's shrine forming tiny pointed cap,
seems even more unsteady from here,
but the guide feels no uneasiness. He
is confident that somewhere below
the pagoda is lock Of ,BuddEa's hair,
and this alone stays the bowlder from
IT'S fall.
In the early spring pilgrims from all
over Burma journey to this forsaken
spot to place flowers on the rock and
offer their prayers and gifts. Jewels
and other offerings are tossed with an
invocation to Buddha into the chasn
below the rock. AS they leave, they
place lighted candles outside the
shrine and, as they cross the plain in
the evening they can still see tiny
points of flame marking the sacred
spot for other pilgrims who may fol-
low them.-Chicago News.

Really Serious.

The Newjyweds had unwittingly
chosen their abode in the neighbor-

One morning one of the reighbors

"What's the trouble between the
NeWlyweds?"
"Her husband tried to keep some

"Oh, that's not serious! Men will

Calling Reserves to Save

London, Aug. 11.-Today the situa-

more stabilized. There has been no
important Allied advance in the II
hou!se and at some places a slight re-

The fighting has been desperate and
e > ding dong character, and for the
moment any big advance On this front
is not expected.
