THE WAR
The great European 'War 'which is
now of must inevitably result, in a ter-
rible loss of life and property,,, ee-
hides causing a partial paralysis of
commerce. The mad preparations for
war which have been going on for
ssereral years could result in, nothing,
ase but a clash of alms,,, atnd _it is to
be hoped that wbeta the awful: des
tructioa is aver we may. at least start
out on another hundred years of
peace. The Emperor of Germany,

would have hesitated before plung-

Whatever the ultimate result maybe
however there is one thing sure; the
lass on both sides will be very heavy.
The fighting that has already been
• done has not been in the Kaiser's fa-
-vor.. but these have been, only pre-
iiminan skirmishes and the real bat-
etle,s may not take place; far a few
imys, as it takes sometime; to mobil-
ize seversl hundred thousand men.
The navies up to the ,present time
have been moire concerned With_ the

TELL ALL THE GOOD
Make a ha.bit of telling all the good
-things you hear, If you have a neigh
bar who. is inclined to be blue, tell
him something kind that someone has
said of him. Yes, you can, think of
something, for na one is all bac]; and
if you say kind things of your neigh-
bor to others, they'll say kind things
l f him too. Don't you remember
how good you felt when some friend
talo you a kind remark he had heard
some ane make about you and how,
deep down in your heart, you thank-
ed the the one who] told you? How
-m. uch brighter everything looked.
And you had so reach more courage
to take tvp the burden; and to this
day your heart beats quicker •vhen
you think of it, Now, others are just
like you. Forget all the bad things
you hear said of a mart, but if you
something good said,go at once anti
tell him. Try this plan one month
and see if you don't hear many nice
things that have been said of ,von
`Ae ye sow so also, shall ye reap,"
The teaching profession has always
been. looked upon to a less or greater

:cot becomingg. .more so, The lemand
for such a -number of teachers indie-

mance the term after vacation, which
is really the beginning of the school
year with new teachers. Some of
these had only had teachers for one
year others for two, aacl some for e.
longer period, But in the majority of
rases, at the, rural schools especially

Deafness Cannot be Cured
bylocal applications, as they cannot reach the diseas-
ed portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that - is by: onstitutional remedies
Deafnessis caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of theEuetacbian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im-
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, De*
nesais the result, and unless theinflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal oondi-
tion, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the mucous sut-laees.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of
Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured

LONDON,Aug. II, — A terrific
battle is believed to have been in
progress during the day between the
German and French forces near Nett
Breisaeh for the control of Alsace
Lorraine, Neu Breisaeh is strongly
fortified, and it is said thst a divi-
sion et the second German army has
been concentratedthere, to check
the advance of the French, who
have already swept through Ferny,
Muhlhausen, Altkirch and Colmar,
French reinforcements are . re-
ported to be rushing through the
pass east of Belfort, in an effort to
prevent a force of 40,000 Austrians
from cutting the French line of ad-
vance between Altkireh and Muhl-
hausen, The Austrians, it is said,
are in force near Basle, Switzer-
land.
The Germans, it is reported, are
hurrying reinforcements to Neu
Breisaeh from Strassburg.

all ; re now in the possession of the
French troops. Alsace is inflamed
against the Germans, whose army is
now concentrating on the 'front of
Gen. Joffre, the French commander.
Neu Brei; ash, east of Colmar,
and Strassburg, on its north, 'are the
centre of the- C3erman advance. The
German army of :he lower Rhine,
meanwhile, is proceeding against
the French, whose lines .extend
across to the Rhine along the Swiss
border.
The French cavalry patrol has
been driven from the border town of
Longuyon, in the department o1 the
Meurthe ct Moselle by German
Horse,- supported .by infantry and
artillery.
After wresting, in desperate en-
counters,, the passes of Bonhomme
and Sainte Marie, on the frontier be-
low Muhlhausen, from the German
troops, the French now oecepy the
village of Sainte Marie, Aux Mines.
Theline. fighting continues along the.
Spread out in fan -fashion, the
Frencli army in Alsace, led by Gen.
Joffre is moving from the Jura
Mt,untains on the ' Swiss border
through all of Alsace, to. a point
east of Colmar, now held by the
French. This f.s the second mobili-
zation centre of the French army
which has its headquarters at Lan-
gris. The Germans, according to the
War Office report, after making
their first stand. at Altkirch, retired
rapidly and it was not until Colmar
was reached that Gen. Joffre's men
encountered any serious opposition.
Muhlhausen fell without any long
continued fighting.
At Colmar there was considerable
sharp fighting, wherein the French
are reported to ha.e beaten back the
Germans in a succession of brilliant
bayonet charges. Many hand-to-
hand encounters took place i'n this
battle. • The German forces are now
said to be. trying ';.o dam the Seille
river, which forms part of the boun-
dary of Lorraine, • being a tributary
of the Mosel. This move is said to
b • intended to prevent 'the French
from assauling Metz.
German troops are said to be
moving on Prance by way of Lux-
emburg,
uxemburg, the main column being re-
ported at 'Esch.
Eight • Austrian regiments are
said to have violated the neutrality
of Switzerland, according to a Basle
report, and they are now said to be
on the Alsace border, preparing to
attack the French in the rear in Al-
sace. These are said to be the
ehoice of the Austrian Tyrol sol-
diery, hardy mountaineers capable
of giving vigorous battle to the
French. The Foreign Office is said
to have demanded from • the
Austrian Ambassador a declaration
regarding the intentions of Austria.
At the capture of Muhlhausen,
the French seized a big aeroplane
factory, in which they found a num-
ber of machines intended 1trr the
German army. As they are near
completion, they will be finished
and then confiscated.
Both the French and German aer-
ial force, in the fighting along the
ridges of the Vosges Mountain
range, have been most active.
Into upper Alsace yesterday came
detachments of the famous .Tunes,
or native troops from the French
colony of Algeria, They are a bold
and well-trained body of fighting
