At last" accounts tliir forces which creased the stream' in j pursuit of the" retreating Xustrlavsi were still hara-sfn thern.Jpfl'rtin?! heavy casaaltf and forcing the n-? emy to continue his diwrc rly retreat Fate Las trun! tioirswliat its bal ance in favor if the .Austrians, for the Piave river again has risen and wo me of the pontoon bridges the Italians had thrown across r the stream have been carried awajr, mate in? impossible quick pursuit and the crushing of the Austrian, which General Dias had counted upon. The Auftrians are declared to be rush ing up reserves from the east. The Austrian war office admits a reverse along the Piave, but an nounces that the retrograde move ment has been carried out in accord ance with plans and without loss of material. It is added that the Aus trians have taken more than 60.000 prirsoners from the tlalians since June IS and that the aggregate loss es pf the tlalians in the fighting at the lowest estimate is 150,000 men. Holding the upper hand along the tksrders of the eVnetlan plain, the Italians have turned on the offensive against the enemy In the mountain region and are attacking on various sectors. Notable gains of ground have been made and in addition to heavy casualties inflicted on the enemy,- a large number of Austrians have been made prisoner and six teen machine guns have been cap tured; according to Rome. The Aus trian war office, however, asserts that all attacks in this region have been repulsed.' A On the front in France and Bel gium bombardments and raiding op erations, the latter in considerable strength, continue. The French near Leport, north of the Alsne. have re pulsed a German attack, but on sev er?! pthcri sectors, notably in the V.'oe?re and In Lorraine, themselves l.cvt carried out successful raids and taken prisoners. The Canadians near Arras have been successful in an enterprise Which netted them twenty, two prisoners and six machine guns. The Germans are bombarding the rBitisfi front east of Amiens. Synchronously with the defeat of the Asutrians in Italy and the spirit of unrest prevalent in the dual mon archy comes another acknowledge ment from Germany that that country is desirous of peace. Through its foreign secretary. Dr. Richard von Kuehlman, the govern ment has made the admission that the end of the war could hardly be expected through pure military de cisions alone and without recourse to diplomatic negotiation, and that it was hoped Germany s enemies would realize thot in view of the resources of the Teutonic allies victory for the entente was a dream. The foreign secretary was evas ive with regard to the future staus of Belgium, but asserted that the fundamental views of the imperial government differed from those as cribed to it b y British statesmen. The aims of Germany and her allies. he said, included a free, strone and indenendent exfstence "within boun daries drawn for us by history;" overseas possessions corresponding with their greatness of wealth .and freedom of the seas to commerce. ''''''ii Colossal a ri Although much has been done to relieve the local labor situation, it jit ill remains a complicated and stren uous problem for those who are trying to meet the demands. Com paratively few berry pickers are be ing eu rolled at the federal labor or-fi-e. but continual -additions are made to the ranks of berry pickers from outside points. Undoubtedly large numbers of workers hare gone directly from their homes to the or chards and berry fields without re porting to the committees. It is known that the cherry orchards are now fairly well supplied. A group of about thirty young wo men sent out under the supervision of the Y. W. C. A., is at work In one of the cherry orchards, and yes terday a group of twenty-six Honor Guard girls from Silverton arrived In the city with their chaperone, cook and camp equipment and were sta tioned at the Legg orchard a few miles from town. A camp of some tyenty-five members of the Working Iioys Reserve has been stationed near Brooks by 11. N. Aldrich, under the supervision of the Y. M. C. A. It Is understood that a similar group of Boy Scouts may be made up In the city, and another camp is on its way here from some point In south ern Washington. Letters Volunteer Service. The labor office has received com munications from different points in the state offering to send families or groups of pickers providing that camp equipment can be furnished them. These, of course, must be turned down as there is a dearth of camp equipment for those already in the field. It is impossible even to securv transportation for all those who have volunteered in Salem. This Is a feature of the case that is caus ing the most annoyance to the com mittees in charge. Out of all the hundreds of cars in Salem less than twenty have been secured for the use of the berry pickers. The com itteebas made. up an alphabetical list of all the car owners in the city, and now proposes to ramp on their trail with the persistency of a col lection agency until enough have been secured to carry the city pickers. The committee wishes to impress the owners of cars that a shortage of transportation means a loss of fruit In the fields. The names of those who have thus fare responded are as follows: f R.'B.

William I'enn: , Wars are the duc!j of princes. Goethe: Every solution of a prob lem is a new problem. . Lorenso I Medici: He only knows how to conquer who knows how to forgive. Confucius: Of all people girls an I servants are the most difficult to be have towards. . Van Gogh: Do not think that th dead are dead; as long as there are the living the dead shall live. E. Von llartmann: The source of all wrongdoing is selfishness and it is the problem of ethics to make it harmless. H. D. Thorean: I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have It all to my self than to be crowded on a velvet cushion. Francis Baron: We think accord ing to our nature; speak as we have been taught, but act as we have been accustomed. Duke Cosmo of Florence: We read that we ought to forgive our enemies, but we do not read that we ought to forgive our friends. Plato: IK not employ force In "ed ucating the children, but make their study a sort of play so that yon mir be better able to discern their na tural aptitudes. Henri Frederic Amlel: The world which Is only eager to silence yi when you do speak. Is angry with your silence an soon as Its own ac tion has killed In you the desire to speak. PERFEtT WOMANHOOD Perfect womanhood depends on perfect health. Beauty and a good disposition both vanish before pain and suffering. A great menace to a woman's happiness in life is the suffering that comes from some functional dearangement which soon develops headaches, backaches, ner vousness and "the blues." For such suffering, women find help In that famous old root and herb remedy. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, which for three geneiations has been restoring health to women cf America.

All children hate caster oil. Grown people themselves won't take it. No child minds Stanolax it is tasteless, odorless, colorless. So it's not like a medicine. Stanolax is not n cathartic, laden with habit-forming druf. It decs not stim ulate the intestines to abnormal action. Stanolax is a lubriccnt. It softens the bowel content, and oils and soothes the intestinal walls and makes elimi nation easy. By this fcontlc but certain method, all toxic-poisons are carried away. Thus auto-intoxication is prevented. By the use of Stanolax one prevents chronic Constipation, with all its resultant ills. Stanolax represents the new-day way as . opposed to harsh purgatives. The natural way as opposed 'to violent treatments. Drui-fciden cathartics afford only tempo rary relief. Stanolax. taken regularly, say a teaspoon at bed time, will keep the intestinal tract clean and ever ready to function properly. Your drujst has Stanolax. Buy one bottle. It will convince you that. old cathartics are needless. fnOcrinv Only hf Standard Oil Company Chicago, U. S A. ' OTNO FOR . CONSTIPATION STANOLAX is for sale in Sal em by a DANIEL J. FRY . J.
