AUSTRIAN PASS
' WITH BAYONETS
(Continued From Page One.1
i owing to the extreme secrecy -with
which all troop movements have been
made. With the continued advance
of the Italians, however, it is believed
that full details will reveal remark
able organization in the Italian mo
bilization which has made it possible
to throw &n extremely strong force
across the Austrian border.
Two Offensives Undertaken.
Two offensive movements are now
in progress The capture of the Valle-
l ferno pass is regarded as an important
development in the movement toward
the Carnic Alps. This campaign is ex
pected to result in extremely severe
fighting as it progresses while the
second offensive on the FViuli front
and directed against Trieste, will Ue
equally severe.
Several additional Isonzo villages
have been captured by the forces di
recting the offensive in- the direction
of Trieste, It was also announced to
day. The army moving northward through
Verona is meeting with no opposition.
Montebaldo, a high peak between the
Adige rive? and LAke Digardi, has been
occupied. In addition Forcella, Ponte
Caffaro and Tonale pass have been
seized together with Monte Corno,
Monto Foppiar.o, Monte Boffelani and
other "passes and defiles east of the
Adige valley. t
bosses in Clash' Heavy.
The taking of the Valleferno pass
at the point of the .bayonet is the
first serious clash to "be reported In
connection with the land operations
since the beginning of the war. Al
pine troops assailed the Austrian
trenches In the most daring fashion,
cutting their way through entangle
ments and storming positions, while
machine guns raked the defiles with
deadly frre. Though the forces en
gaged were not large, the Austrian
losses were comparatively heavy. The
Italians took a number of prisoners.
General Cadorna reported to the war
office.
At several points along' the border
Austrian artillery shelled Italian out
post positions at long range, but did
no great damage. The aerial flotillas
of both the Austrian- and Italian
forces are declared to be extremely
active. '
The Austrians- in the region of
Goritz. have withdrawn across the
Isonzo river. It is believed that the
first battle of any great proportions
may be delayed for a time, and will
be fought along, the Isonzo near
Goritz. '

riere Is Good News
for Stomach Victims
Some very remarkable results are
being obtained by treating stomach;
liver and intestinal troubles with purs
vegetable oils, which exert A cleansing,
soothing and purifying action upon the
lower bowels, removing the obstruc
tions; of poisonous fecal matter and
gases' and preventing -their absorption
by the blood. This done, tbe food Is
allowed free passage from the stom
ach, fermentation ceases and stomach
troubles quickly disappear.
George H. Mayr, for 20 years a lead
ing Chicago druggist, cured himself
and many of his friends of stomach,
liver and intestinal troubles of years'
standing by this treatment, and so suc
cessful was the remedy he devised that
it has since been placed in the hands
of druggists all over the country, whs
have sold thousands of bottle.
Though absolutely harmless, the ef
fect of the medicine Is sufficient to
convince any one of its remarkable
effectiveness, and within 24 hours the
sufferer feels like a new person. Mayr's
Wonderful Remedy Is sold by leading
druggists everywhere with the positive
understanding that your money will be
refunded without question or quibble If
