Use for Old Batteries.

In Open fireplaces, especially where
wood is used for fuel, gorgeous COL
ored-fire effect may be produced, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine, by
placing one or two old dry cells among
the hot Goals. The substance with
which the top Of the battery is sealed
soon burns away, and the heat sets
up a chemical action. producing gas
which burns with flame Of vivid
blue, purple and green. One old dry
cell will continue the spectacle for
from half to three-quarters Of an hour,
depending upon the heat Of the fire
In which 1t is placed. No danger at.
taches to this production Of colored
fire. It costs nothing. inasmuch as old
dry batteries are ordinarily worthless.
but 1t will provide both pleasure and
amusement at fireside gatherings.

London, April 23.-The Siberian
army of Admiral KOlchak's govern
ment, in making an advance Of 100
miles in five weeks ON the Ural front
has achieved success which endan-
gers the entire Bolshevist position in
eastern Russia.
According to advices from Omsk the
Siberians are now within 100 miles of
the Volga, the most important river of
Russia, and the new success on the
river Kama in the center of the 400
mile front, make untenable the Boil
shevist positions east of the Volga.
The Bolshevist troops opposed to the
allies In north Russia and those facing
General Deneklne in south Russia are
affected seriously by the advance.
The Bolsheviki had clung obstin-
ately to Sarapul, southwest Of Perm,
and its capture, together with much
war material and number Of Boil
shevist leaders is looked upon at Omsk
as an important success. Both banks
of the Kama river, which joins the
Volga near Kazan, have been cleared
OF B0lsheviki for a distance of more
than 200 miles.

erations in north Russia says: "Gen-
eral Maynard Commanding the Muir

offensive on Lake vigosero the enemy
lost ninety-three killed and eighty-twO
tv.oi N =
ing Bolsheviki was badly damaged by
shell-fire. The captures included two
field guns, five machine guns and
1000 Shells"
The important city of wilma has
been recaptured from the Bolsheviki,
according to official admission in a
Russian wireless dispatch. The Rus
sian message reads: "The enemy at
tackled with considerable forces in the
wilma region, pierced our lines and oc-
cupied the town."
Paris.-POlish troops have captured
the important railway centers of Ba-
ranowichi and Novogrodek south of
Wilma, as well as wilma itself, advices
from Warsaw say. All the railway
lines from wilma south to Ida are in
the hands Of the Poles. On the Lem
burg sector, the Poles are reported to
have broken through the Ukrainian
front.
Archangel.-By an advance of ap-
proximately twenty miles southward
over road paralleling the Murmansk
railroad line, about thirty miles to the
east, Russian troops operating with the
allied Murmansk force have reached
point within easy striking distance
of Lake Omega. which is connected by

Swita erland, formerly a partially for

opened many Alpine roads hitherto
closed TO motor ears and the little
Helvetian republic, which can boast of
some OF the best constructed scenic
highways leading across the mountain
passes, is thus on the threshold of a
new era.
Like her neighbors, Switzerland be-
longs to the Association of Interna-
tional Triptyques, permitting the mo-
tCrist to pass the frontier of any coun-
try which is a member thereof without
payment of duty. One part of the
triptyque is retained by the frontier
customs house. when the car enters q
foreign country, another is retained at
the frontier pluce where the car leaves
a country and the third part must be
duly stamped sind signed by the GUS
toms officials at the places of entry
and exit, and is retained by the mo-
torist as evidence that the car has left
the country in question. The trip
tyque represents cash bond, which
the association puts up for its mem
bors. The money deposited may be
collected upon presentation of the
third part of the triptyque.

Switzerland from France, for instance,
