I In the battlefield of the Merne, h< re a week ago the Germans were i iu cling their masses of troops j gainst the western side of the j .ve.'ee th. v had driven into t.ie allied , | nes in the battle that began on Marr-h 2(1, the Teutons are now stand g virutnl'.y on the defensiv< . In the 'hateevi.Thierry sector Amer can and French troops are participating in a reaction on the extreme tip ni ; the salient and are making progress in this important region. The Irtish are engaged on the other side of i the wedge, between the Marne and Ithetms. While the operations take the nature of local attacks, they have had their effect in driving the Gcrmavs i hack from the points they reached on j the crest of the wave that carried 1 well on the road to Paris. The at- I tacks which began just to the north- j west of Chateau-Thierry are spread-' ing northward along the line and j < very where the allies report ground ; recovered. The rush of the American ma- ! t'nines and the French on this has I continued to gain ground as fast as | it did at the inception of the movement, but it is still going on. In the meantime they have withstood two violet attacks by the Gecrmans and have repulsed the enemy in severe J fashion. German Artillery Active. Keports from the whole battle lino in France are to the effect that j there has been renewed activity on the part of the German artillery in several sectors of the front. Notable! among the regiovis under bombardi lent is the line between Noyon ant i I M ontdidier. It is along this line that a heavy enemy offensive had been expected1 by military experts since the momen-' turn of the German advance from the Aisne has died away. When the Germans pushed west , from St. Quentin late in March and early in April, the line from Noyon 1 to Montdhlier was almost equal in importance to that in front of Amiens. The French forces were rushed to this front and fought savagely to stop the German advance. At the same time the Woevre sec tor just to the oast of Verdun is claiming attention. Largo move*, monts of enemy troops in the direc-. tion of St. Mihiol have been reported by aerial observers and there are indications that the positions of the I Americans along this part of the front may bo in the storm center of, a terrible attack soon. WONDERFUL STUFF! LIFT OUT YOUR CORNS _______ Apply a few drops then lift corns or calluses off with fingers?no pain. No humbug! Anv corn whether i hard, soft or between the toes, will loosen right up and lift out, without a particle of pain or soreness. This drug is called freezone and is a ; compound of ether discovered by a | Cincinnati man. Ask at any drug store for a small1 bottle of freezone, which will cost hut i a trifle, but is sufficient to rid one's feet of every corn or callus. Put a few drops directly upon any tender, aching corn or callus. Instantly the soreness disappears and shortly the corn or callus will loosen and can he lifted off with the fingers. This drug feezone doesn't eat out the corns or calluses but shrivels them without even irritating the surrounding skin. Just think! No pain at all; no soreness or smarting when applying it or afterwards. If your druggist don't have freezone have him order it for you.?adv?(3) o To Cure a Cold In One Day.

Add one-sixth to one-half cake compressed yeast softened in 4 tablespoons warm water, or 2 to 4 tablespoons liquid yeast, or one-hall cake dry yeast. When liquid yeast is used no additional water must be j added. Ulead with this potato and yeast mixture 1 cup flour. Stir until smooth, cover, and set to r so.
