RUSSIANS TO HAVE
 100000 IN ACTION

LONDON, Sept. 25.-Before the mid dle of October Russia will have 700o.. 900 troops under marching orders. She now has more than 100000 troops conducting offensive operations in Gal icia; 9OO,0O0 on the offensive in Pol. and, and 5OO,000 in East Prussia. Be- hind these armies, guarding the com munications and supplies and prevent lnga flanking movement by tho ene- my, are 100000 moro men; while a third army, aggregating 100000 men is following up the other, and constI- tuting the second, or rear guard, and providing endorsements where need ed. This rear army is concentrated in centers behind but near the long. connected line which precedes it. From these centers men may be moved by rail and motors in great numbers to support any part of the wall of flesh and steel that is sweep ing into Germany and northern Aus tria.
 The forces in Gallcia have not ceased offensive operations. The army in East Prussia, which had swept all before it for several weeks, was met by an overwhelming German force, and retired In order and completely intact to a point where 1t was within the zone of the protection of the main army of 100000 men which is sup porting the operations of the armies of offense. This army in East PruS- sia has been reinforced, and is again resuming offensive tactics.
 The Russian successes in Galicia will permit the Russians to shorten their long line, consolidate and strengthen the forces in front of the line, and add to the long supporting army behind it.

RICHES AND POVERTY.

ITTtHTN WUTU IttVHtT.T
When justly obtained. and ration
ally used riches are called gift OF
God. an evidence OF His favor and
a great reward. When gathered un-
justly, and corruptly used. wealth is
pronounced canker. a fire, curse.
There is no contradiction, then, when
the Bible persuades to industry and
integrity, by promise of riches;
and then dissuades from wealth, as
a terrible thing destroying soul and
body. Blessings are vindictiye to
abusers, and kind to rightful users;
they serve us or rule us.
