Is. sls. Amsterdam, July 1.--Dr. Alexan-

parliament on Saturday caused a
sensation when he said rulers are
regarding the Austrian losses on the
Piave exaggerated. He said the re-
ported $4,000 captured by the Ital-
ians was grossly misrepresentel for
the truth was. the Austrians cap
tured $4,000 and the Italians only
$4,000.
"We retreated to save lives" as
serted the premier. "To have MAIN
tanned our positions on the Piave
would have created dangerous posi-
tions for our troops, causing losses.
The fact is, in the tenth and elev-
enth Italian offensive our losses were
slight while the Italians losses were
$4,000 to 100000. Now our posi-
tions are similar and our losses are

Northwest of scissors from the
Aisne to the Disc, north of the Disc
| to the region around Roye; in the Ar
ras sector and nOrthward on the IA
nous Lys salient the Germans every
where have been compelled to fall
back under the pressure of the French
and British troops. In new offensive
launched by the French general, Man
gin, over front of approximately fif-
teen and half miles, from Bailly on
the Disc to the Aisne near Scissors,
the French in bitter fighting have car
ried forward their line to an average
depth of two' and half miles, and
in the first phases of the battle had
turned to French possession numerous
enemy-held villages and farms. In ad-
dttion, more than 5000 Germans had
been herded behind the line. prisoners.
Mangin's men are reported still hard
after the enemy, and unofficial &C.
counts place the French on various
sectors we'll in advance of the posi-
lions outlined in the French official
communication.
Along the -Scarpe, east of Arras,
Field Marshal Haigs forces have kept
up their harassing tactics against the
enemy, who has been compelled to
fall back eastward along the Scarpe
river. The Germans resisted vigorous
ly, but all to no purpose, and the Brit
ish advanced their lines to the east
Of the village Of Fampoux Although
Haig claims only a slight forward
movement here. particular Significance
attaches to it by reason of the fact
that the Germans have been driven
back until they are virtually upon their
old battle line as it stood in December,
1917.
Northward, the Lys salient again
has been narrowed down by the opera
lions of the British, who, north Of Mer-
vile, have taken the villages of Vier-
heck and la Couronne and also
reached the hamlet of L'Epinette. This
gain represents forward movement
of about a mile and half and places
the British astride the road running
southeastward to Estaires. The new
victories Of the allies are highly i'm
portant. The advance of the French
northwest of Scissors. taken in con-
junction with the successful maneu-
vers on the Lassigny sector. and
south Of Roye, where Beuvraignes has
been captured. seemingly means that
the enemy forces from the Somme to
the Disc soon must give up their posi-
lions and retreat eastward. It IL not

on the south and southeast.

ment to Harriet's practicality. There
had been a wild day Of supplement-
ing, of course, when it was discovered
that there were two babies instead of
one.
The room, when they escorted Rose
into it, was a terribly impressive
place. The spirit of barren, sterile
this appearance of baroness obtained
despite the presence of an enormous
number of articles-a pair of scales,
perfect battery of electric heaters
of various sorts; rows of vacuum jars
for keeping things cold or hot; small
sterilizing oven; instruments and ap-
pliances that Rose couldn't guess the
uses or the names of. Mrs. Ruston,
of course, was master Of, them all,
and Doris flew about to do her bid
ding, under watchful eye.
Rose surveyed this scene, just as
she would have surveyed laboratory,
or a factory where they make some
thing complicated, like watches.
That's what it was, really. Those two
pink little objects, in their two severe
ly sanitary baskets, were factory prod

esses. And in all the routine, there
was nothing that their mother, now
they were fairly born, was wanted for.
/ Rose kept those ideas to herself
and kept an eye on young Doris, lis
tened to the orders she got, and stud
led alertly what she did in the execu-
| tion of them.
Rodney had lovely time watching

A stab of pain went through her
and tears came up into her eyes. "Yes,
give them to me-" she started to say.
But Mrs. Ruston spoke before she
could frame the words. It was their
feeding hour, a bad time for them
to be excited, and the bottles were
heated exactly right.
By that time Roses idea had flow
cred into resolution. But she mustn't
jeopardize the success Of her plan by
trying to put it into effect too soon.
She waited patiently, reasonably,
for another fortnight. Harriet, by that
time, had gone off t. Washington on
visit, taking Rodney's heartfelt
thanks with her. Rose expressed hers
