TODAY’S WAR SUMMARY A struggle for the possession of the strip of French seaport nearest the shores of England was the most interesting phase of the war situa tion today. British naval forces are reported to have Joined In the movement with the allies, who are making a determined stand on the Belgian frontier against the w-estward drive of the German right wing. The exact battle line is not known. This afternoon’s official French statement says that the German artillery has attacked without success the front “from Nieuport to Vladsloo, to the east of Dixmude." The allies, it adds, have advanced so far as Roulers and there lias been sharp fighting on a front from La Basses to Ahlain und Kt. Nazalre. Paris states that the allies are moving on Lille, which was occupied by the Germans on October 13th, An earlier dispatch from London, stating that the Germans were bombarding Lille may have referred to events prior to October 13th, and been delayed in transmission from France to London. There is nothing from Belgium to reveal the position of the Germans that are contending for the coast line There is no doubt, however, that they are bound for Dunkirk and Calais and are prepared to meet a strong resistance Rains that, caused much suffering to the troops in France earlier in the campaign are falling again on the battlefield, so < ontlnuouusly thut great hardships result. Germans and Austrians have encountered had weather in' Russian Poland, They claim, however, to be making progress along the Vistula. Petrograd asserts that the Invasion has been definitely checked. \‘tomr complexion need* Q DAGGETT & RAMSDELL’S PERFECT COLD CREAM by tha •lit* of N«w York Society for tw.*t» tbr#e ymm*% mud stilll their lavorit# Impart* Haalth and baauty to tha skin. • moot f. as away U»a marks of Tima, brings Nature s bloom »o sallow chaaks, d stouragra juiwilaowi. 1 1 n.t ud wrinkle*.

A SURE WAY TO * END DANDRUFF Stop Falling Hair and Itching Scalp---At Once There is one sure ray (hat lias never failed to remove dandruff at once, and that is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, just Ret about four ounces of plain, common liquid nrvon from any drug store (tins is till you will need), apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most if not all. of your dandruff will be gore, and throe or four more applications will completely dis solve, and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it. no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find all itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better.
