250,000 RUSSIAN TROOPS FUR
 FRANCE

MARSEILLES, April 21. - It was stated here today that about 250000 Russian soldiers would arrive in France this spring to fight with the allies in the trenches along the west ern front. Russia al present has many hundred thousands of men in training for her armies. having mobilized much more than she can possibly use along the eastern front the coming year. Russias pressing problem is ammunition and not men. Men she has in abundance. but owing to her lack of trained factory workers, and the fact that she is practically ice
 bound in the winter. with the excep- ton of Nladivostok. which means a railroad haul at great expense of thousands of miles to reach the front in Europe, Russia has found it ex- tremely difficult to properly equip her immense armies. The bringing of the Russian troops to France is an effort to solve the problem. as they come without equipment, her allies finding 1t much easier to arm the Russians in France than in their own country.

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
