ENEMY FALLING BACK
Russians Are Driving Everything
Before Them.
General Brussiloirs. Armies Are Con-
verging
on.
ver ging on Lemberg and Halicx
and Bneenany Are Within Range
of Russian Guns -Ir our Import-
ant Towns Rave ileeu Taken --
Nearly 85,000 Officers and Men
Captured..
LONDON, Aug, 15,•. -'-The semi-
circle formed by the Russian artny
chain in Galici& from the region
south of Brady to the area south of
Stanislav has been drawn an average
of 10 miles closer to ° Lembe;'g, dor-
lug
or• -lug the last 24 hours, Swiftly roll-
ing up the armies of the Ausrrien
throne heir in the direction of to.
Galician capital, the main goal ,e
General Brussiloff's drive in the
south, the Muscovite forces drove toe
Teuton defenders frown the great o
part of their positions on the finer
great streams which formed the main
natural obstacles on the road to Lem-
berg from the south-east: the Sereth,
Stripa., Iforopiec, and Zlota Lipa.
Though fighting desperate rearguard
actions, the Austro -Genian troops
are rapidly retreating on the whole
tt°ont (rote the head waters of the
S'*retb down, to the eastern and
southern approachos of Raliez, the
:w ineirawal having become neeessary
with the fall of Swanislau last Thurs-
es a result of Saturday's and Sun-
nay's fleeting the two southern
'°gates" of Lemberg, Hall= and 13ri,-
eine r.•e now in the range of tin,
artillery and their fall le
near.
Four important towns fell to the
au.se7alas during the last 24 hours.
Thr pons' cion of eaeb serves . to
tighten then. gr:lr on Lemberg. They
are. h ' rxta (Jezierna), between
the Stripa ares. Seretb Rivers, i
milessouth-east of Lemberg. PucI-
galey (?odhajee), on the Koropier,
30 miles to the north-east of Stanis
Ian, and only 15 miles south of Brea -
zany, From Podgaicy a trunk rail-
way runs north. -west through Breen -
any directly to Lemberg, whlcb is 61
miles away as the Brow flies. Horo-
zonka, *est of the Zlota Lipa, ten
miles north of Halicz, Maryampol, on
the Dniester, 10 miles to the south-
east of Halicx, °
Thus Halicz Is being encircled and
the Teuton lines there, menaced
since the fall of Stanislau, have be-
come untenable.
In the north, just south of the
headwaters of the Sereth the Res -
siert army, under Gen. Sakharoff, bas
reached Oleuv (Olejow). Here the
Czar's forces are only 53 miles from
Lemberg, but the drive on the Gali-
cian capital is directed from the
south, with Brody as the pivatol
point of the giant swing.
The huge semi-cirele right end.
rests on the lines in the Sereth Val-
ley, the centre is pushing ahead
against Brezezany, and the left
threatens Halicz. These two latter
points taken, the road to, Lemberg is
practically clear, and the Russians
are 1n a position to take the last lap
of their drive along three railways,
with the Transversal railway, Tarno-
pol-Strij, serving excellently as a
supply line.
Sunday night's Russian War Offiee
s.atament enumerates captures of
;risouers in the Galician lighting,
viag a total of nearly 85,000 ofd -
.e and men. Of these captures
34 alone were made by . the
:.'cgs of Generals Sakharoff (south
f Brody) and Letchitsky (Buczacz
and Stanislav fronts) , within the last
thirteen days. The balance is made
up of prisoners taken by General
Tcherbatcheff (middle Sereth front),
from June 5 up to date -1,263 offi-
cers and 55,158 men.
General Letchitsky's forces cap-
tured 12 officers and 1,000 men in
the last 24 ' ours on the Bystritza
River.
In the Carpathians where a week
ago the fortunes of battle showed in-
clinations to favor the Teutons, the
Russian advance being temporarily
checked, the Archduke Karl Franz
Joseph's right wing is now retreat-
ing before a renewer. Russian offen-
sive. Attempts by the Teutons to
wrest the initiative from the Musco-
vites and prevent the gradual separ-
ation from the Austra-German north-
ern armies, failed, according to Sun-
day night's Petrograd report.

commenced to get better soon after
starting to take. them. I did not
have to walk doubled over ae I did
before using the 'Anuric." It is the
best remedy I have ever When for
what it is intended to relieve.
I hope those who are in ,need of
.such a remedy will give the a Anuria
Tablets" a trial.
(Signed) -A. G.Dr.

Simply ask for Doctor Pierce's Anuric
