It is dated April 22 and reads: "The German attacks on Hill No. which had stopped at the time of issuing the report of -last Monday, have been renewed several times* attacks all failed, and for the ■time being they have ceased. We hold the entire crest of the hill and so deny its use to the enemy, who have at tached great importance to it. , "There is not and there never has been any truth in the German official communication that the enemy had re captured this position. During the Operations around hill No. 60, the enemy fired shells seventeen inches in fliametcr into the town of Yypres. s "On April 21, in the neighborhood of La Bassee, the enemy exploded two mines opposite our right. They failed i to damage our' trenches, having dis- : covered German mining operations in ; the neighborhood of Le Tourquet, near ! Armentieres, we forestalled their ef- : fort this morning by exploding a mine i which we had prepared there. "On April 19 one of our airmen 1 carried out a very bold and successful single handed attack on an airship shed near Ghent. He had to run a gauntlet of lire from the ground, e.reet fi.v a captive balloon, in order to at tack his objective. In spite of this he came down to within 200 feet of the ground and effected his object, caus ing a serious explosiou in the shed. .. ■ [EPILEPTIC FITS Bwhen the weak nerves that cause the Ispella are «tren£thened and kept ' 'Bin good condition by the use of \i|Dr. Gaerlin s Nerve Syrap ijlft helps with the first Dose. ■Safe, sure and guaranteed to give ■satisfaction.

Most sonps and prepared shumpoos contniji too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just com mon mulsified' cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats soaps or any thing else, all to pieces. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a tea spoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, anil rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, lustrous, fluffy, wnvy, and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every par ticle of dust, dirt and dandruff. You can get mulsified cocoanut oil (it must be mulsified, plain cocoa nut oil will not do) at any phar macy, and a few ounces will supply every one in the family for months. This is the first year that the Penn sylvania relay sports have been spread over two days, it being the object of the athletic authorities at the univer sity to have the meet conform in a measure with the Olympic games.

The third feature on to-day's card was tho pen athlon in which each of the athletes en tered will compete in five events, the hroad jump, discus and javelin throws and the 200 and 1,500 metre runs. The other new events were the 4 40- yard hurdles, throwing tho 56-pound weight for discus and the hop, step and jump.
