UNE IS THREATENED
British Successes Foreshadow
Further Gains.
Battle In Flanders Has Bern Re-
sumed With Energy Now Tbiat
the Weather Has Improved—
Prussian ('ounter-Attacks Were
Repulsed, and Allies Advanoe To-
wards Roulere.
LONDON, Aug. 14.—With the re-
turn of tine weather the Battle of
Flanders has been resumed and the
Franco -British forces are continuing
their eastward drive to the region of
Ypres with an energy that promises
to net even greater results than
those of tate ant part of the battle.
The usual artillery preparation has
been going on for ave days with in-
termittent local attacks culminating
In the British completing the capture
of Westhoek Ridge and the advance
of the French toward Langemarrck.
Six Prussian counter-attacks were
made on the new British positions
Friday night, but they all broke
down, and on Saturday General Haig
reported further gains on the Ypres-'
Menln road. At the same time the
French further north have crossed
the little- Steenbeck creek and occu-
pied a number of farms from which
the Prussians had been drive' by
concentrated gunfire.
This creek is one of a large num-
ber draining the Qat lands and acting
as feeders to the Yser River. which
has been used as a canal for many
years and 1e connected with all the
main canal systems of Belgium and
Northern France, These small
streams are rather shallow and offer
little obstacle to the advance of an
army. More difficult to negotiate
are the marshes and lakes, of which
there are two or three still swollen
by the recent wet weather.
Just east of some of the French
positions gafned Saturday is the For-
est of Houthulat, which is filled with
Prussian machine gun stations and
promises to be a nuisance to this part
of the advance. Only one road tra-
verses it, that from Poelcappelle to
Dfxmude. The nch line here is
not very long, lee!? than six miles. It
runs from, the ser Casal near
Noodschoote, around Birscboote to
the Boesingbe-I.angemarck road,
about half a tulle beyond Pilken.
They are thus astride the railroad
from Ypres to Bruges by way of
Thourout.
The British taee us the line at the
-Langemarek rot at swing around
a wide semi-ejr, • ft , three tour
miles dlstar' 1 m res. Al he
Prussian Pm Riot s er. a front of wo
miles from Frezenber ; to the Ypres-
Menin road were cat pled Saturday,
widening th s se nl-r cle by a third
of a mile. This advence was made
on both sides of the Ypres-Roulers
railroad.
At Roulet, about :,x miles away,
,pis road makes a juncture with the
tiallway running north from Lille,
t'rough Roubaix and Turcoing to
Bruges by way of Menin and Thou -
rout. Tbe latter is tbe main line of
communication behind the Prussian
front In Belgium and northern
France. Should the Allies succeed
In cutting it the results would bq
disastrous for the Prussian occupa-
tion of a large part of Belgium and
would loosen their hold on Lille, if
not compel its evacuation.
Thus the Allies .re driving a
wedge deepr and .ds ser Into the
Prueslan lines in B• um, threaten-
ing the enemy's Cat both north
and south. The ev. jut design of
the campaign is to peat the pro-
cess adopted further s. Nth in France,
where the Prussians have been
squeezed out of one important posi-
tion after another, losing heavily In
men. The gradual wasting of their
strength is shown In the fact that
their counter-attacks are becoming
more feeble and they have almost
entirely lost their initiative, such at-
tempts on other parts of the front as
were made Saturday by the Crown
Prince to divert attention from tke
Belgian offensive, being very weak
efforts and easily repulsed.
SUNK GERMAN SUBMARINES.
Steamer and Freighter Both Dispose
of Pirates.
A CANADIAN PORT, Aug. 14.—
Omcers on board a steamer which
reached here Saturday tell of an
encounter with a submarine on the
trip across the Atlantic in which the
undersea boat was sunk. The meet-
tng took place near the Irish coast.
The lookout man notified the captain
that a small sailing vessel was act-
ing suspiciously. It was watched
carefully and a submarine was seen
to emerge from behind it. The gun-
ner on the steamer had his weapon
prepared and directly the submarine
showed Itself he fired. He bit the
undersea boat with his firashot. A
second struck the conning fewer, and
a third turned the submarine over
and it began a nose dive. Its crew
clambered out and waved white
handker"blefs. The steamer wasted
no time In the vicinity but left the
swing of the Germans to a patrol
boat. that came by.
Another German submarine has
been sunk by the gins of a merch-
antman, it the Banners of a British
freighter which arrived at an Atlan-
tic port Saturday are correct in their
assumption that three shots which
struek an undersea boat off Brest.
Prance, sent her to the bottom. The
Britisher eneoentered the submarine
on her last outward trip from this
port. One shot destroyed the peris-
cope, The second and third were
followed by an explosion, and the
submarine disappeared. The gun-
ners were confident that the subma-
rine went down involuntarily.

Empress Eta of Austria
Searched Out Officials
Whit Were Not Competeal
SWISS newspapers reprint the
following story, which has
been going the rounds of the
Austrieu and German press:
"On one of the recent fat days in
Vienna the Empress 'Cita, disguised
as the wife of a Vienna workingman,
mixed among the purchasers of fats
in order to see for herself how mueb
truth there was in the complaints is
the press about the bureaucracy pre-
vailing at the selling of fate. Soon
she was engaged in conversation with
the other 'Amen, and Frau X was
telling abodt ber faultily and her
children that she had been com-
pelled to leave behind without any-
one to watch them because she fre-
quently had to wait hours to get a
little fat, and Frau Y saug the same
song 1n a little different key.
"An hour passed, and then two
and finally three, while the Empress
was talking with ber new acquaint-
ances about their household joys and
woes and they were vainly trying to
get to the fat counter. There were
tar too few officials on hand, sad
EMPREAS ZITA
those who were there were so indif-
ferent and indolent that no progress
was being made. Dozens who had
not yet been served after having
wafted for hours were still standing
in front of the shop when the clock
struck five and down rolled the shop
shutter with a crash, and despite all
the pleas of the women for service
the officials said: 'It is now closing
time and time to quit work. To-
morrow the performance will begin
again. You will have to come again
to -morrow.' -
"Then the women were Oiled with
natural indignation and they were
not at all backward in voicing their
complaints, while their new col-
league carefully noted what was
going on and then disappeared unob-
served into a side street, whence
she quickly made her way home in a
court automobile. There the Em-
peror at once received an exact re-
port of the state of affairs, and a few
minutes later the question as to how
things had gone that day in selling
tat wan put to the omclats at the
salesroom from the highest author-
ity. 'Remarkably •veil,' was the re-
port. 'The work of distribbtlon was
already ended at six o'clock and
everybody was satisfied.' 'These why
didn't the Empress get any fat, al-
though sbe waited for hours?' was
the next question, and the interroga-
tor rang off. It must have rung un-
pleasantly In the omctals' ears all
night and still more so the next
morning when the order came:
'Transferred to field service at the
front because of incompetency in the
supply service:

Polar Asps to Mars-
Slnee the preliminary announce-
ment that he had found an'apparent
relation between the suns pst period
and the behavior of tbe r caps

detailed observations which appear
to establish this relation in a striking
manner. Exeept 1n two years, 1862
and 1A77, when local conditions on
Mars may have disturbed the effects
of solar radiation, he finds that when-
ever enna,ots are large and numer-
ous the meeting of the Martian polar
caps 1s rapid, ani that whenever
sun/mote are small and few the melt-
ing of the caps takes place slowly, As
Maunder has pointed out, the meteor-

Waste In Potatoes
Enormous waste is caused both is
material and nutritive value by the
peeling of potatoes before cooking
thein. There are thousands of pounds
of potatoes wasted every day through
the peelings. To be convinced of this
1t le only necessary to note the bulk
of tire peelings when you peel the po
tatoes before cooking. But this is not
the only waste. When peeled pots
toes are boiled in the ordinary way,
there is a loss of nitrogenous and
saline matter by extraction into the
water. which does not occur when
potatoes are boiled in their skins, or
baked.
Northern Potato Seed seat
Authorittes agree that northern -
grown seed will give the best results
in old Ontario and tkat immature seed
does better than mature seed. "1n
parts of Scotland," said Professor
Zavitz of Guelph, speaking on this
Point. "they grow an early orop of
potatoes and then plant a later crop
for seed purposes. and they find that
the immature potatoes make the best
seed, and the same result has been
found at the college; potatoes not fully
matured make bette,r seed than a well
matured potato."

Attractive Voyage
in the `Channel
��..■.,��n-•
those who have acqualnt-
seeee w!th ren way of the
sea, In different parte of the
world, who know some-
thing Of the strange lonesomeness 01
mid-Atlantic, the burnished bril-
liance of the tropics, or the leades
grayness of the Northern oceans
there la something about the Engtlst
Channel which seems to make 11 a
waterway apart. "Sailing up the
Channel," towards the Straits of
Dover, or "sailing down the Chan-
nel" towards the open sea, are
phrases which seem to be abundant•
ly fulfilled In practice, whenever one
makes the journey. Every vessel one
sees go by has about it an air 04
setting out or returning home. There
is much more of the companionohtl
of the river about 1t all than of the
chance :'hail and farewell" of the
sea.
Geologists have, of course, mueb
to say about the Channel. They will
tell you how, along its coasts of
either side, cliffs and lowlands alter-
nate, and how the "geological amn-
Hies" between successive opposite
stretches are well marked; how the
granite of Cornwall and Devon 11
clearly own brother to the granite o1
Brittany, and so on, all the way tt
the "sliver streak," where the white
cliffs of Dover find fellows 1n the
white limestone about Calais and
Boulogne. Geographers, too, will tel;
you that, If the entrance to (he Chan-
nel shall be taken to lie betweec
Unbent and the Scilly Is1es, its ex-
treme length 1s about 320 miles;
whilst its width varies from 101
miles. at its entrance, to twenty
miles at the Straits. The average
man pays little attention to the nip
urea. but he is grateful to '1e inci-
dentally reminded of such places as
Devon and Cornwall, of Brittany and
Ushant, and the Scilly Isles.
Indeed, among the great joys of 1
voyage up or down the Channel, tc
sayone who knows the copotry well
especially the English shore, are the
unexpected views he gains of familiar
scenes; the noting how this or that
building, hill or wood, which he
never thought very conspicuous
stands out quite defin)tely as a land-
mark, when observed from the sea-
Then,
eaThen, It he makes part of his jour-
ney by night, as indeed he need*

tify—and who that has made mueb
excursion abroad by sea is not ram -
'liar with the satisfaction of greeting
a known light a long way off?—
Dover, Beachy Head, St. Katherine's
Point, and so on.
Perhaps the most thorough way of
exploring the Channel is to make the
Mart from London, to pull out from
-the great mass of warehouses and
shipping which piles up in strange
complexity round St. Mary Axe, tot
instance, not far from Wapping
Stairs, and be towed cautiously dowse
tbe river through the Pool used elms -
house Reach, and so on towards the
sea. If a start is made at midday 16
summer, it will be nightfall by the
time the ship is off Broadstairs, and
the voyager will have an aftern000
of recollections of the stately build-
ings and still more stately true of
Greenwich, the great liners of Til-
bury Docks, the "monstrous immen-
sity" of the hotel at Southend, and
the familiar landmarks of White -
stable, Herne Bay, and Margate, sod
so on round the corner to Broad-
stairs, all places which recent hap-
penings have rendered only too
famlltar.
Alter nightfall, if he stays on deck
long enough, there is tbe light on
Cape Gris-Nes, over in France, and
the lights of Boulogne; and then, as
the coast of France falls away souta,
and the ship bugs the English ahorT,
there are the lights of Hastings and
of Eastbourne, and the solitary light
at the foot of the cliff at Beaehy
Head. And, all the time, ships are
passing, homeward bound ships
mostly, and some, for so It warn be-
fore the war, are a blaze of light, and
some again steal past with nothing
showing but just the red asul green
on either aide, and the stead] white
light high up on the masthead. Early
next morning, maybe, finds the Isle
of Wight strangely near oa the ntar-
board, and, thereafter, the land
sinks away to the most distant bort-
son, as the coast sweeps inwards
along the g.'eat bight of Dorset and
Devon, and so on to Start Point, and
from Start Point to Lizard Head and
