A despatch from Paris says; The latest news from the -Somme front emphasizes- the methodical character of the French offensive. Wise in past experience, General -Foch leaves no- thing to chance; he initiates no move- ment before taking all measures to ensure . its complete execution. The regent German counter-attacks, combined with aeroplane activity on a scale -unusual since the beginning of July, indicate not only the arrival of reinforcements, but a determine -eon to check at all, costs, if possible, the French tide that is steadily swamping their fortifications, Consequently, the whole German front from Guillemont to Soyecourt was overwhelmed for 72 hours by a, French artillery storm which eye -wit- nesses describe as far surpassing any- thing hitherto experienced. The bom- bardment was first directed chiefly Upon a cluster of buttresslike' hills, seamed by steep valleys, north of the Somme. It spread after 24 hours' to the flatter country south of the river and along the front from 'Lihons to Lassigny (a total distance •of '80 miles),_ The German trenches were, first eat off from reinforcements or supplies by the concentration upon communication trenches. Escape was impossible, and the German casualties must have been ekceptionally heavy, because, the German trenches were filled with troops brought up especial- ly for counter-attacks. CANADA'S GREAT TELESCOPE SAID TO BE THE LARGEST IN THE WORLD. Instrument Is for Use of the Do- minion Observatory at Victoria, B.C. The great 72 -inch reflecting tele- scope desjgned and constructed for the Dominion Astronomical Observa- tory at Victoria, B.C., ranks in size at the largest yet completed in .the world. In design the telescope is a reflector 6 feet in diameter with an equatorial type of mounting,having the main or polar axis pointing to- wards the north star and swinging the body of the telescope in a plane parallel to the earth's eqpator and the apparent paths of the stars; and a declination axis at right angles to and passing through the centre of the polar axis, to allow movement north and south. The instrument weighs 55 tons, and will rest upon massive piers of reinforced concrete. The polar axis is 23 feet long and weighs 10 tons. The declination axis weighs 5 tons, is 14% feet long, 15' inches in diameter, carrying a flange 41 inches in diameter and 4 inches thick, to which the body of the telescope is attached. The tube is 31 feet long in three sections, and weighs 12 tons. The central cylin- drical casting is 121,E feet long, and weighs 7 tons. The mirror cell, weighing with counterpoises and mirror 6 tons, forms the lower end, while to the,upper end is firmly at- tached the rigid skeleton tube, made of structural steel in tension. The skeleton portion of the tube is 23 feet long, VA, feet in diameter and weighs with attachments about two tons. Driven by Clock. A driving clock similar in design to that which Inas been so successful in the 'Lick and Yerkes telescopes, moves the telescope east or west with great precision, through an ac- curately cut worm wheel 9 feet in diameter mounted on the polar axis. The telescope is moved from one position to another, and is set and guided wholly by electric motors. Seven motors with solenoids and magnetic clutches are provided for these motors. With the focal length of 108 feet the guiding speed neces- sary for a star image is 1,300 inch per second. The observer, at either the upper There is a Co d Day Co:.4r..

Weighs 43 Tons. The engineering and 'mechanical problems involved in 'designing and constructing a telescope of such great proportions and accuracy will be apparent when considering the extreme rigidity necessary for carry- ing the optical parts invariably in their correct relative positions with- out strain, and at the same time so well poised and adjusted as to en- able the: telescope to he easily pointed towards and accurately set on any desired object, and to enable the whole massive mechanism weigh- ing 43 tons, to unvaryingly follow the motions of the stars. The sun, the moon, the planets and the comets' all have different rates of motion to that of the stars, and all this must be provided for in the controlling mechanism. ' The revolving dome is 66 feet in diameter, and is provided with, a double shutter having an opeing 15 feet wide. Its weight is 120 tons. All of the movements of the dome, telescope, wind shields, shutters, etc., are,by means of electrical motors. The principal mirror is 73 inches in diameter; 12 inches thick, and pierced with a hole in the centre. The mirror weighs 214 tons; yet it is so accurately poised that no flee - teens can distort its surface, which mpst nowhere deviate from the theo- retical curve more than the two hundredth -thousandth part of an inch. The instrument is made to allow its use in three forms, the New- tonian, Direct or Cassegrain forms. The secondary mirrors are 9 inches in diameter. This great engine of science, the largest completed telescope in the world, is now being erected at Vic- toria, B.C., by order of the Dominion Government for the Dominion Astro- nomical Observatory in charge of Dr. Plaskett, Chief Astronomer, un- der the late Dr. King at Ottawa. SOME FORGOTTEN TREASURES. 1;ASU ES Studying Life of Ancient Egypt From Cast Away Papyrus. It is a strange story that reads more like a romance than cold fact, how the most intimate thoughts and emotions of two thousand and more years ago layeburied in the rubbish of. ancient cities to tome to light in our day. Papyrus was the writing ma- terial of ancient Egypt, used in of- ficial and private correspondence, in business transactions, in legal ac- tions. When it had served its pur- pose it was thrown away. Much of it also was used to wind the embalmed bodies of the dead. Fragments of it passed westward in the early part of the last century without attracting much attention, says the Christian Herald. The schol- ars of those days were interested in classical lore and literary remains, and could not foresee• the infinite pos- sibilities for studying the life of a past age from its private correspond- ence, Within the last decades, however, interest changed completely. Ex- ploration parties were sent out to go over every inch of ground and ga- ther the remains. A host of scholars set themselves the task of decipher- ing and interpreting the documents. But still an immense amount of ma- terial is etcred away: in Oxford, the British Museum, Berlin, Paris and other places. In a group recently examined there are three letters from recruits, young men who had passed the mile-' tarY examin:ste7t and were taken from' - simple home surroundings to I the cosmopolitan Roman army. The first is a letter from a youth in Alex- andria to his mother. He writes: "Send me two hundred drachmae. I have nothing any more. When bro- thor Gemellus came I still had four hundred drachinto. They are all gone. I bought a team of mules. Send me monthly allowance soon. When I was with you you promised to send my brother before I came to the garrison. But you sent nothing. You left me to go as I stood, nothing in the poc- ket. Also my father on his visit gave me not a penny. All laugh at me and say: 'Your father is a soldier himself and still ha sends you nottenge My father tells me when he gets home ha' will send' me everything. But you sent nothing, Why? There is the mother of Valerius; she Bent him a pair of abdominal bandages and a cruse of oil, a basket of meats, and two hundred drachmic. Send quickly, I already went and borrowed from a comrade. Also brother Gomellus sent me a pair of trousers." Locks Like it. "There are a great many demands for aid for various causes." "Rather seem to be on the increase, too." "Yep. Every day'll, be tag day by and by." COMP lLING THE CASUALTY LISTS..

HEALTH The Wasting Baby. Sometimes, in spite of all that its parents can do, a 'baby persistently fails to gain in weight os steadily loses weight; it becomes what is call- ed a "wasting baby." In such a case:. it is best to ask the help of the physi- cian at once, because he will probably be able bo find out by careful experi- ment gettingthe nt whether the baby is right food; but not enough of it, or 1.the wrong food altogether. Sometimes, the fault lies, nob in the L food, but in the child's digestion. The digestive organs may be weakened by an attack of illness, or because the food used earlier in the child's life was unsuitable either in quality or in quantity. Of course the quantity may be excessive as ,.ell as insuffici- ent; some babies have deranged diges- tions because they have been unwisely stuff ark Very often both parents and physi- cians must eractice great patience. Although one baby will respond im- mediately to a sight change in diet, the same method in a case' that is ap- parenty exactly similar will have no effect whatever. It is of no use to persist if the conition does net change for the better very soon, for a sick baby's life hangs by a slender thread. Fortunately, if one expedient fails, there are always others to be tried, Of course there are cases that do not respond to changes in the diet, be- cause they are caused by some seri- ous disease, such as tuberculosis. There are also cases in which it is im- possible to find any sufficient cause for the trouble. The child may take plenty of nourishment, but because of sonic congenital inability to assimi- late it may waste away helplessly be- fore the eyes of its parents. That type of ease, after every experiment has been made and everyone has be- gun to despair; sometimes takes a sudden turn for the better for no dis- cernible reasbn, is-cernible.reasbn, and the child rapidly becomes perfectly normal. If Siete, is no evidence of indiges- tion, such as vomiting or diarrhoea, it may be that the ingredients of the food merely need to be strengthened. Sometimes the proteins must be in- creased by adding a little raw -meat juice; sometimes the fats in the food are insufficient; often milk must be stopped for a. while, and a good pre- digested food given instead. In very severe cases some mild stimulant must be administered, and the 'baby should be gently rubbed with olive oil, so as to get a little fat into the system through he pores of the skin. The best treatment of all is to get the baby a wet nurse. Relapsing Fever. While the war goes on in Europe we must feel a certain apprehensive in- terest in the group of disorders that always follow on the heels of destitu- tion, overcrowding, and uncleanliness, Of these diseases typhus and cholera are easily the most terrible, but there are many others, end among them is relapsing fever, sometimes dalled "famine fever," because it appears -at times when large :ambers of people are underfed. It is likely to prevail, when the conditions are favorable, in any climate. Ab one time there were many out- breaks of the fever in Great Britain, but it has not been known there since 1873. It does, however, often occur in Russia, Egypt, and India, and in 1868 Germany suffered from a revere epidemic, which spread' thither from Russian Although relapsing fever results from the same conditions that cause typhus, it is a much less grave dis- oVeer. It is caused by a microorgan- ism called the Spirochaeta obermei- f ere, which is transmitted from one person to another through the agency of certain bisects. An attack begins with a h;gh i!ever and other symptoms of illness, which may Include headache, chills, giddi- I mees, and often 'vomiting, The liver and spleen are eel,:rged. The first stage cf the disease lasts from five to seven days, .and terminates suddenly. The patient appears ao be on the road to recovery until the second attack, or relapse, appears, which is often quite as severe as the first, although it generally lasts a day or two less. After the second relapse most patients go on to ni real convalescence, al- though some have still a third relapse, The complications are not usually serious, although in some cases the vomiting is so excessive•that the pati- ent is exhausted; and jaundice is of- ten severe. The diagnosis is unmis- takable when the microbe is found in the blood, but ae first the disease i5 often mistaken for typhus, or malaria, or influenza, Relapsing fever; is not a very fatal disease; in fact, the pro- gnosis is always good unless such complications as pneumonia appear, or unless the patient is old and feeble. Drugs have little influence on the course of the disease. -Youth's Com- panion. PETROGARD IN EARNEST. To All Russia the War is Considered a Crusade, "The war," said a friend of the writer, just returned from a visit to Russia, "has wrought no such change in any capital of Europe, not even in Paris, as in Petrograd. From a city of careless pleasures it has become a city of the deepest seriousness and a grim and deadly earnestness. It is possessed of one thought only -to win the war; and on that object all its ef- forts are concentrated, says London Answers. "It is a city, too, of profound piety,. and this piety is universal. You will see the roughest cab -driver and the most high -placed officer alike remove their hats and cross themselves rev- erently when passing a streete-shrine. Every Russian regiment has its own special ikon, which to it is a real liv- ing thing, the very body of the saint whose spirit dwells in it; and every soldier carries a cross as his most precious treasure and consoler. To all Russia the war is a crusade -a holy war waged for the little brother Serbia. "And for this great and holy cru- sade everyone is working. The very boys are always busy rolling band- ages, making `swobs; or sewing strips of bombazine together, which the sol- diers prefer to socks. At the hospital of Tsarskoe Selo the Czarina, her daughters, and Court ladies are min- istering night and day_te the wounded and dying; and in all the intermediate social stages everyone is equally hard at work. "In the streets of Petrograd the war meets you everywhere. Wherever you go you encounter collectors -sell- ing metal crosses for the Red Cross, postcards for a fund to help the Poles, or relics from the battlefield -ail in the sacred name of charity. "At a street corner you will see a patient, serious crowd gathered to lis- ten while someone reads aloud the latest news of the fighting from the leaflets posted up on the walls. Here you pause to watch a regiment of stal- wart, grim -faced soldiers march past, with the slow, rhythmic tread peculiar to the Russian fighter. A -little farth- er on a band of students passes along singing -to your astonishment- "Tipperary',' while very onlooker re- moves his hat in tribute to England, the great ally who is making victory assured " TRAVEL IN COREA. Ice Cream and Biscuits on the Re- staurant Cars. A Baldwin locomotive whisked us through the green hills and past the quaint thousand -year-old villages of Corea. It was odd to see the white swaddled Coreans, with their bare feet and flytrap hats, riding in this , most modern of t- ins We fled at, forty miles an hour over trails where a few years ago these same Coreans doubtless joggled donkeyback et twenty miles a day. theChris-, Any American"road says Chr tion Herald, would have been proud of the dinner on that train. It was I vastly better than the dinners on the roads In Japan. The tiffin (luncheon) was table d'hote and cost only one yen (fifty cents). It comprised seven courses, and its main features, re- lieved of their French disguises, were soup, fish, chicken salad, beefsteak, brown potatoes, succotash, ice cream and lady fingers, apples, oranges, ba- nanas and coffee. Plenty of every- thing and everything good. Electric bell at every table. Speedy service. Eternal politeness. And as if this were not enough, ice cream and nabiscos were .served at 3 :parse That was the last straw, Restitution if made would often prevent destitution. PURE RICH BLOOD =PREVENTS DISEASE Bad blood is responsible for more ailments than anything else. It causes catarrh,; dyspepsia, rheum.., tierce weak, tired,languid feeling.% and worse troubles. Hood's Sarsaparilla has been wonderfully suceeseful in purifying and enriching the blood, removing scrofula and other humors, and building up the whole system.

A despatch from London says:-: A new success was won by General Haig's British troops during Friday night on the ,Somme front. By q strong attack in the„Guiilemont steeto'!t they advanced their front several hundred yards on•hoth sides of the Guiilemont-Fleury road, bringing it me even terms with the Fgeneh etivanatf through Maurepas. The German sal- ient which was left at the point where the British and French fronts joist was flattened out and several hundred prisoners taken. In addition, to the north, the British extended their ° trench progress along the Leipsic salt. ent, taking an additional 300 yards of strongly -defended position. Meanwhile the French, by strong artillery fire, were repulsing German counter-attacks south of Maurepas, especially in the region of Hill No. 121. This height is now completely in the hands of the French troops. Military experts attach great im- portance to the capture of Maurepas by the French. Not only does it put into their hands one of the principal supporting points of the German front between the Somme and the Al- beri-Bapa'cene high road, but it bringg their advance within two miles of Combies, which powerfully -fortified' town they are steadily flanking. It is reported from Paris that the German corps. ae£eated on Thursday by the French was led in person by the Kaiser's second son, Prince Eitel Friedrich. On the Verdun front the Germans rearing the night attempted to storm Fleury. The French War Office re- ports their complete repulse. The Germans made a new assault on the French line •at the tip of the famous salient of St. Mihiel, but have been repulsed after gaining a footing in French trenches. ANOTHER NEW STAMP. A Two -cent One, Brown in Color, Said to be About to Issue. A despatch from Ottawa says: Con- siderable complaint having been made i as to the difficulty experienced in ,distinguishing between the ordinary +two -cent postage stamp and the two - I cent postage and war tax stamp, 3t has been decided to issue a new stamp of the value of two cents and sur- charged in a manner similar to the one now in use, the only difference being the color, which is brown. NEW BRITISH ZEPPELINS J CAUSE GERMANS ANXIETY. A German despatch to The London Express says the appearance of the I new British Zeppelins causes much anxiety in Germany. Patroll'ng off ; Denmark, the British dirigibles com- ;pletely outpaced the German _Zep- pelins. The Germans purpose to , buildsmaller and faster airships to cope with the British, but the Kale- ' er's ale-'er's sanction is necessary for the; change. AMOUNT OF GOLD HELD , IN TREASURY VAULTS. A despatch from Ottawa says: The monthly statement of circulation and specie shows that on July 31 the amdunt of gold held by the Minister of Finance was $110,266,085, of which $118,877,073 was held for the re, demptiort of Dominion notes and the remainder against savings banks de- posits.
