A ea ny ine uroiess Lnons 10 i?uiflank Germans. Reports of recent date from the battle front, reaching this country from Paris, arc full of the almost unprecidonted heroism displayed by the European soldiers of the allied armies in the hand to hand conflicts which are of daily occurence around both wings of that long and terrible battle line. Speaking* of these a late dispatch says: Recent, terrible hand to hand conflicts 011 the western and eastern wings of the armies engaged in the battle of the Aisne arose from the attempts of 'lie Germans and the allied generals to execute flanking movements in great force at the same time in the open country. The lines of the armies have beer, growing even long- i er in the last ten days in a mutual endeavor to overlap each other. The wings have been heavily reinforced, but the allies have been able to bring greater power to boar and not only have prevented the Germans from breaking through, but have gain / J (I'l'/M 1?>/1 C?f/ i w 1 1 1 if n 11/I nAtir i*. n f v \ i )ji uui:vi c I v liliVi 11 \j >Y 1IU VL" 11IV advantage. German prisoners taken in largo numbers on the western end of the line show that reinforcements which have arrived recently consist largely of men nearing middle age. This seems! to indicate that many corps have been -withdrawn to meet the Russian advance. Wearing Out Germans The German practice of maintaining an incessant offensive appears ac-; cording to military men, to be wear-' ing out their human material. Some of their corps have been almost wiped out. Fighting has been unceasing?f something previously unknown in military history?and before this fight started many German regiments had fought all the way down from Liege, Belgium. German attacks in the last 25 hours seem to have become less energetic1 The allies have repulsed them and | have followed them up more easily. There are signs that exhaustion is set' ting in among the invaders, owing to the hard fighting and severe weather conditions. Meanwhile the allies are being given intervals of rest, in the f vnnnhne K/\f U/% ' ? i ?vi>v>iv.o Mi. i V?CUII niu pel iuua UL III"; tense exertion, as fresh relays can be brought to the front at any time. J!l> IBrave Dispatch Riders. % The generals in command cf the allies have nothing but praise for the corps of dispatch riders, who, since the beginning of the great battle of the Aisne, have kept up the communication between the various corps along the line now spreading from the Somme to the Moselle and along the frontier of Alsace Lorraine. 'The dispatch riders are mostly volunteers from British universities, many of them wealthy youths. Night and day they have made dashes through the country infested with German cavalry, carrying messages, which have kept the brigades and army corps in close touch and enabled commanders to send reinforcements to points where they were most need ?d. On many occasions these dispatch bearers, mounted on motorcycles, by sheer audacity and speed have scattered reconnoitering parties of Gorman cavalry, sometimes facing enormous odds in their dangerous work. $100 KF.VVAK1) ThA 1 v? l\/\ - ..v. . .>1 V I Uli.l J'UJ'l I V? i i >'< pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has ix*en able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh.

COLLAPSES LIKE TOY ? nil Storv of l''e Terrible Destruction i> rougnt ny Terrific Explosions En Hne^red hv the German Artillery Equipment. Telegraphing from Paris the Daily ail correspondent describes the cometo destruction by the heavy Goran artillery of the open ar.d U forled town cf Albert, 18 miles from miens, France, which was the scene iring the past few days of a pronged and murderous artillery batn He says: "The struggle on the part of the ?rmans to prevent their right wing ing turned compelled them eontinulv to push their front further north id to 1hc west while the allies conmally replied by extending their out to overlap the enemy, both ies bringing up large reinforceonts. This necessitated long marche: "0 to 25 miles a day and the Gorans were repeatedly called upon to ake a desperate effort in order to roid being outflanked, whereby they fferH very heavy losses. "On Saturday they began to realize at their efforts were in vain. They ercforc, changed their tactics ar.r led to drive a wedge into the allies' ont. TLo point of that wedge was A _ All i c town 01 aidcit. A Fierce Fight. "The attempt almost succeeded, liey brought up and massed then tillory and the French infantry sufrcd considerably. They kept up a 'e so rapid in character that at nicrht ie whole sky was lit up by bursting tells. On Sunday they gained perptibly and on Monday they still essed on, but by that time the ronch had brought up a large num;r of their famous quick firing batries and their deadly fire checked ie German advance. "Yesterday the enemy kept up his forts gamely, but by late afternoon had clearly failed of its aim. There ere French batteries at various Dints around Albert, but none within mile of the town. At 10 minutes *st 5 German shells from their heavy iins began to fall. Here is an ac>unt of the scene from an eyewitness ho was on a hill overlooking Albert. " 'We were warned along the road be careful, and saw a great column people coming away from the town it nothing happened until 10 minxes past 5 we heard a deep boom, aite unlike the noise made by an dinary field gun, and a shell eviintly of much greater force and size ill in the town. We thought it must ! an accident of misdirection and ten to our indignation the shells bein to fall rapidly. They came in ,vv-hes.

" 4It reminded one of a scene in a rury Lane melodrama. One could ot believe without an effort that one as seeing a real town shelled. It as just as if some one had made new kind of explosive and had inited his friends to see it demolish a lodel of a town. I stayed there an our fascinated.'

ILL MAKE INQUIRY ; AS TO C011CN SEED Department of Justice Directs Investigation Into Charges of a Trust in the Southern States. As a result of letters which went ! out last week from the attorney gon! oral to the district attorneys of ol! the cotton producing States, stops will at once 'no taken to investigate whethor not a cotton seed trust oxists in those States. In South Carolina District Attorney F. IT. Weston has been advised to take any steps that may be necessary to get all existing facts which will throw any light on this mat tor ? - 1 he and his assistants will at on< mfer regarding the situation. While the letter and instructions to the various district attorneys leave the details of securing this information very largely in their hands, it is understood that there may ho unity of action on the part of those officials from the different cotton producing States in order that the work may not be duplicated. It is quite probable, therefore, that a meeting or conference of some kind will be held immed luu'iy ov mom to nenne wnat lino ot action shall be pursued. Senator Smith of South Carolina and Representative Lever, who wep appointed members on a subcommittee at the meeting of governors unci congressmen hold in Washington last week, have this matter up now with the attorney general. They have also conferred with the president and Secretary McAdoo regarding the general situation. Closely allied with the production and handling of cotton is the seed question and the work of the district attorneys may develop some interesting facts. Neither of the South Carolinians just named wiuld venture a statement as to what might be shown by the proposed investigation. IMPORTANT TO ALL WOMEN READERS OF THIS PAPER.
