Capture of Biache Brings the >b`rench
Troops -Bp to the Doors•ot Per,
onne mad Forces German Artillery
From Left Bank of Somme ---Brit-
ish Troops Have Also. Made Great
Gains in Their Advance..
FARIS, July 'IL—Sunday's suc-
less north of the Somme in the eap-
ture of Hardecourt and Rill 139 was
immediately followed an Monday by
another advance of the right wing,;
taking Biaches, This movement is
very important from a strategical
point of view. It not only bring* the
French up to the doors of Peronne„
but it elears all German heavy ord-
nance from the left bank of the
Somme as far south as the French
offensive now extends, and thus, of
course, greatly menaces manoeuvres
of the last German defence ot Per-
onoe On the west. Seising it puts the
bridgehead in French bands. It is
only 1,200 yards from Peronne as the
crow flies, though on account of the
marshy nature or the ground along
the river the road takes three kilo-
wetrea to enter. South. of Biaebe
the French captured Hill 97. between
Biacbe and Ba.rteaux. which bringe.
theta to tbe toot .of Hill 90 and
within striking distance of Villers
Carbounel, wbich is the last strong
poaition that the Germane hold be-
tween the Freneb and the river along
the front et the offensive,
British and French forces co -aper-
ated in a vigorous Stroke Baturd y
against the German lines. Just where
the flanks of the Allies meet, near the
village of Hardecourt, a little south-
east of Montauban.
Such was the vigor and strength of
the assault that in 35 minutes after
the battle began Gen, Fgcia's men bad
driven tbe Germans out at Hartle --
court and bad taken tbe nearby vil-
lage of Mau)elou.
The British troops also made great
faIna, Following a fierce bombard-
anent, the infantry stormed a line of
trenches and gained a tooting in the
Bois de Troues. which lies to the east
et Montauban. According to an un-
official report. the advance here
amounted to fully halt a mile ort a
considerable front.
The British troops likewise made
progress at Gontamalson"and are ex-
tending their .bold on Ovillers.
Again Sunday the .British made
progress in the neighborhood of
Grillers and gained ground in Harde-
court village, the capture ot which is
admitted in Sunday's official state-
ment from Berlin. At other points
they delivered fierce attacks, which
broke down before .heavy Are front
the enemy's guts.
By the capture Saturday of Harde-
court and Hill 139, and by the en-
velopment Sunday of Biaches' and
the sector immediately south-west of
Peronne, the French now hold the
German second line along their whole
front in the Somme offensive, The
possession of Hill 139 brings the
troops of Gen. Foch to within three
kilometres (two miles) of Combles.
and at i3iaches they are less than
two kilometres from Peronne. Per-.
onne on the south, Combles in the
centre, and Bapaume in the north
are the three main German support -
'ng positions in the sector under at-
"aek, and all have been turned in the
'est twenty months into veritable
fortresses. With Peronne now under
•hair guns, however, the French have
aniy to take Mont St. Quentin, the
city's only remaining defensive posi-
tion of strength, to sweep the entire
sector behind their lines.
Germany Admits Position Critical.
LONDON, July 11.,—The Frank-
furter Zeitung, in an editorial re-
view of the situation, according to
an Amsterdam despatch, says:
"We all know_ now that our posi-

is the proper utilization of our
forces, which calls for weighty con-
sideration.

volving upon our staff in the west is

Aeroplane. Raid on British Coast.
LONDON, July 11.—Hostile aero-
planes have dropped bombs on the
English coast, but so far as is known -
did no damage. An official. 'state-
ment issued this morning • says:
"Shortly before midnight Sunday

were dropped.No damage is report-
ed so . far. Anti-aireraft guns engag-
ed the raiding machines: No ..further

Canadian Casualties.
'OTTAWA, July 11,—Seven Cana-

the news that the Germans have been
heavily bombarding the Canadian
lines. The name of but one officer
appears in the list.

AST WINTER in lecturing to a Woman's Club 1 told the members
that light shoes produce obesity (fatness) and bad breath. Every
woman desires to be attractive, and some of them assert—perhaps,
too, with a certain amount of reason—that women dress in the
absurd fashion of the day even to the shoes because the men like
to see them fashionably dressed. The young girl allows the salesman, who'
usually knows little or nothing about the fitting of shoes, to crowd her foot
into a narrow, high -heeled shoe utterly too small and unsuitable. As a
consequence the toot may look small and shapely but she pays the price.
It the toes are cramped together in a space about large enough for
the great toe the bones about the ball of the foot are spread out and corns
and bunions develop. The narrow -high -heeled shoe disarranges the bones
of the foot and tends to develop a falling arch or some
BAD SHOES AND other painful affection which is sometimes erroneously
THEIR RESULTS designated as rheumatism. The high and narrow heels
add to the discomfort of the narrow toe by the fact
that the foot slides forward. The effort in balancing upon the high heel
induces aching in the calf muscles. The corns, bunions, aching feet and
muscles settle the question of exercise, because no woman wearing the fash-
ionable shoe will walk any more than she can avoid. The muscles of the
arms, legs, and abdomen become soft and flabby. Lack of exercise,
especially after 35 or 40 years of age, induces obesity. The flabby abdom-
inal muscles allow the abdomen to sag and the abdominal organs may
become more or less displaced. Want of exercise, flabby abdominal muscles
and displaced stomach, liver, and intestines induce constipation.
A bad breath may come from defective tonsils or teeth. Its common
cause in women who take no.= exercise is the absorption of certain, sub-
stances from the intestinal tract. Bad breath is often present in constipated
women.
In first-class hospitals every nurse who begins her training is fitted.
with a broad -low heeled shoe. She could not stand the continuous walking
about on hardwood floors with a fashionable shoe. Every probationer nurse
whose feet give out has likely had them spoiled by her foolishness or
through ignorance of the harm a high -heeled shoe will do to one's feet.
The girl who wears a tight, high -heeled shoe gains what she desires:
a shapely foot; but she pays the price in securing mis-shapen feet, painful
feet, bad posture, flabby muscles, obesity, constipation, bad breath, sallow
complexion, and in all probability ill -health. Is it worth it? '
• • •
Many people pay little or no attention to the care of their teeth. This
may be due to the fact that in early life they were not taught the necessity
and importance of the care of the teeth. Or it may be due to carelessness, a
bad habit. Often one sees comparatively young men, and: young women, too,
with disgustingly foul teeth; or, as a result of neglect the teeth may he
lost through decay, loose from pyorrhoea, or replaced
THETEETH by artificial ones. - Pyornccea has become' a very com-
AND DIGESTION mon disease of the teeth. It is largely due to neglect
and is the result of accumulation of waste matter from
the mouth and glandular excretions forming about the teeth and setting ,IP
inflammatory processes in the gums. .'; As 'a result of this pus forms, the
gums become enlarged and flabby and fall away from the teeth. Extension
of the process causes the teeth to become loose and finally they are lost.
Someone has said that since we are provided with thirty-two :teeth we
should chew, each mouthful of food thirty-two times. One cannot have good
digestion it the teeth are in bad condition or if there are large gaps in the
jaws, which should be filled with teeth. Many persons are tortured with in-
digestion resulting, from diseased teeth.
Nowadays much good is being done by having school children taught
tlte:.`esprtance of proper care of the teeth, the right kind of a tooth brush
to, , d the proper manner of using it. Dentists and doctors now place
mu' - ore importance upon'the value of.: good teeth than they did twenty
-
eve' Os ago. An aching tooth in those days was soon nipped out by the
doctortcor dentist; such a -thing is rare:.nowadayst•, The dentist has -become
so expert that he is able almost to make an o1(1 tooth, if not entirely new,
at least as serviceable as 'a new enee Artificial teeth, while; a useful sub
stitute for natural teeth, are less and lessin' demand. Thy' are neither so
