London, Oct. 29.-Defeat of the
Austro-German forces in Poland by
the Russians is admitted at Berlin
according to a wireless dispatch re
ceived here from the German capital.
1t states that after prolonged fight
ing the Austro-German forces Were
obliged to retreat from Warsaw and

The cores pondent of the Times at
Warsaw, telegraphing under date OF
Tuesday, has this to say of the cam

Radon, fifty-seven miles south OF
Warsaw, was taken after a hard
Struggle and large bodies Of Russian
cavalry occupied Lodz, seventy-fve
miles southwest Of Warsaw, after con
siderable resistance.
1.-THE opinion is held that Germany
has definitely lost her opportunity In
Poland, largely because she misjudged
the attitude of the population, which
Is increasingly anti-German."
The Petrograd correspondent of the
Times, under Tuesdays date, says:
"The news of the occupation O.
LODI is regarded in military circles
as extremely important because OF
the presence of a large cavalry col
umn there which threatens the whole
line of German communication. The
Germans will be unable to withstand
the threat to their left flank, and this
cavalry movement may precipitate
development, compelling the Germans
to fall back upon Czenstochowa, In
Russian Poland, close to the Silesian
frontier, and to weaken the Austrian
defensive in Galicia-"

London. Oct. 29.-Misfortune pur

Belgium along their entire rlgnt "lhs
from the North sea to Noyon ano
thence past the elbow where the ire
mendous battle line turns sharply &c
the north, as far as Craonne.
Repulsed at every point with un
precedented losses, the Germans were
forced to yield ground, step by step
until the end of the days hostliltles
found them at several points miles
behind their positions of Tuesday.
North of Ypres the allies advanced
slowly but steadily, the fighting be
ing continuous and bloody. The ar.
mics of the invader were pushed back
In this region alone to the river Lys,
where another desperate stand Is be
ing made.
Further north and nearer to the
North sea, the British fleet again
added its deadly cannonade to the
machine guns and cannon OF the
French, Belgian and British troops
opposed to the kaiser's forces. AS a
result the artillery of the invader was
silenced at many points and the pres
sure on the allied forces beyond the
User relieved to great extent. The
German attack grew weaker as the
cannonade from the sea persisted,
and the allies gained courage and
time to push their already hard
pressed opponents farther back.
Between Dixmunde and Nieuporl
the Germans on two successive
nights attempted attacks in the dark
but were repulsed on each occasion
with heavy losses. As result, the
efforts of the aggressors along this
front appear to be moderating. Elk
haustion shows plainly in the latest
attempts of the Germans. Their rein

soned fighters, have been unable to

THINGS ALL OUGHT TO KNOW

AS Christian Bible Students-The Sat-
~isfactory Proof of why God Permits
Evil"
One of the questions which comes to
nearly every thinking mind today is.
"Why does God permit evil?' AS we
look about us in the world we observe
that it is filed with sorrow and trouble.
sickness and pain and every trial we
could ~enumerate, and we cannot help
wondering WHY GOD ALLOWS IT.
We realize that He is almighty and
that He could prevent 1t if He wished.
We read in His Word that He is more
willing to do for His children thar
are earthly parents for theirs. and we
know how much that means; vet of
tentimes it seems that those who try
to do and live right have the most
trouble. This question is made very
clear in a book entitled. '"The Divine
Plan of the Ages" Every statement
Is backed by Scripture, and shows that
while God does not sanction evil HE
HAS HAD A PURPOSE IN ALLOW
ING SIN AND DEATH TO REIGN
THESE SIX THOUSAND YEARS.
This and many other subjects of deep
interest to all of Gods people are dis
cussed fully and in language easy of
comprehension.
