The occupation Of Warsaw by the
Germans is the climax Of the greatest
sustained aggressive movement of the
war. Three times before within nine
mOnths-in October, in December and
February-they tried TO wrest the
Polish capital from the Russians only
TO be pushed back when within ie"
miles OF the city and when its cap
ture seemed certain
The final successful effort began IN
March and for three months the vast
movement swept on with logged per-
sistence until it threatened 10 enclrcle
the city and compelled the Russian
forces 10 capitulate.
1t began with the Teutonic march
through Galicia and progressed with
the recapture Of LembeTg by Field
Marshal Won Mackenzen in June.
The Russians were driven over the
Galician border and the Germans then
modified great armies in the north
which early in June began pressing
down upon the Russians.
A vigorous offensive was opened in
the Baltic provinces under the direc-
ton Of Field Marshal Won Hindenburg
with "A determined drive in the
Przasnysz region simultaneously the
Teutoric armies in the south. which
had halted resumed their advance.
Step by step the Austro- German
hosts pounded on from north and
south while west Of the doomed city
activities were also resumed. Before
them the arms of the Grand Duke
Nicholas fell back BY July 10 they
had been forced back 70 the line of
the Narew river.

that was the key to Warsaw, was then

Story of the Fall of Warsaw

across the Narew river below Ostro-
lenka and the battering at the forti-
fed gates OF the city was begun in
earnest on last Tuesday by Bavarian
troops under command OF Prince Leo
pold Of Bavaria.
The salient in the Russian formed
by the band necessary TO include War
saw and large part of Poland, was
a thorn in the side OF the Russians
since the beginning Of the war as in
dicated by their desperate attempts
to straighten their front. In the spring
they succeeded in the face OF ire
mendOus opposition. in capturing
Przemysl and were preparing TO move
toward the German border and TO in
wade Hungary when they were swept
back further east in some sections
than they had been in the early days
of the war.
The Warsaw salient thus exposed
from the south was additionally
threatened by the German forces in
the Baltic provinces which threatened
for a time TO cut off the retreat of
the Russians. Then followed the move
ment which ended in the capture OF
the city yesterday.
The first of the previous drives
against the Polish capital occurred in
the fall of 1914 and in October the
Germans were within 10 miles Of the
city when the Russians swept them
back.
The Germans were defeated in a
great battle along the Warta and Wis
tula rivers, the elimination Of the
second attempt, but on Dec. 8, cap
tured LODI and soon both armies were
entrenched alon~ the famous Bzura-
Rawka front. where the trench war
fare i'm the western part of the war
zone was duplicated.
The third attempt was an attack
bv Field Marshal Won Hindenburg's
forces from the north. Przasnysz was
taken on Feb % with 10000 prison
ers, but three days later ii was re-
captured by the Russians.

PITFALLS OF
WIVES
Shun Men Admirers Who
Flatter Only to Deceive.
BY Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

Men who are not ready TO marry,
immature youths. or men who have
not money TO spend on theaters, car
riages and flowers, often deny them
selves the company of unmarried
women whom they admire. But they
will eagerly kill time by fiOcking to
the side of any married woman who
will permit it.
All the most ordinary type of mar
ried woman needs to do is TO flatter
adrOitly, listen well, look unutterable
things and convey the impression
that her heart is not quite well. and
there she is, all equipped for train
of silly men, who will do their best
or worst to make her forget her
pride. And the moment they sue
coed they boast of their success.
No married woman on earth has
lover-like admirers unless she wants
them. 1t is the easiest and simplest
thing in the world to make men
understand that you do not want AID
will not receive such attentions. and
you will soon find these would-be
lovers turned into admiring friends.
who will sing the praises of your good
sense.
You need to realize. too. that in
stead of making fools of them
selves about you, il is always the
hOuldH WHO Is UldOt the lOOl
in the matter of Irritation, when you
sift the subject to the bottom. The
men who you imagine dying over
your pretended GOODNESS are merely
amusing themselves at your expense
in their secret heart
They Will read this article aloud to
you, perhaps. and declare that ii lis
wholly wrong so far as their love for
you is concerned but they will know
all the time that il is true
You will urge as an excuse for your
action that your husband does not
appreciate you or symplt hize with
you; that he neglects you. Perhaps
my dear madam. he might be your
devoted lover if YOU exercised upon
him all the arts of fascination which
you use toward your admirers 1t
might be worth while TO try.
But even those Of you who do turn
from neglectful and unkind husbands
TO other men for sympathy. out of
pure hunger Of heart, stop a moment
and think of all the dangers to which
such sympathy will expose you. If
you are unhappily married another
mans sympathy and attention can
only increase your unhappiness and
turn diacontent into despair and
wreck all hopes Of winning your hus-
bands heart back to you.
