APPENDICITIS.
Some Facts Regarding Its Rapid In
crease

Appendicitis among Americans is
certainly increasing and while this is
probably due to the excitement and
worry of American business life. it is
more often directly traceable to con-
stipation. Appendicitis is caused by
eXtraneous matter entering the vermi-
form appendix and not blythe swallow
ing of seeds. II the digestive organs
are Kept in perfect condition so the
food is duly assimulated and the bow
els move gently, at least once a day,
appendicitis will never develop. Don't
axe chances Regular doses of DR..
Caldwel's Syrup Pepsin before meals
will strengthen the organs of diges-
tion, your appetite will be good, con-
stipation disappears and you feel bet
ter in every way. DR.. Caldwell's Syr-
up Pepsin does not relax the bowels
by irritation, but by curing indiges-
tion, the cause of constipation. Chas.

WE'RE NOT SURPRISED.
London Military Men Expected Heavy
Losses at Vlaldontein.

NEW YORK, June 5.-'A dispatch to
the Tribune from London says:
Military men were not surprised when
the official story Of the battle Of Wax
tontein came out yesterday They had
suspected from the heavy British loss-
es. that the BOer attack was a sur
prise. but had not guessed that the rear
guard OF Dixon's force had been rushed
and that two guns had been temporar-
ily captured before the main body could
be rallied for their recovery.
This engagement occurred further
west than was at first reported and
communications with Pretoria were in
terrupted, Delarey fought with desper-
aIs energy and was repulsed after he
had secured important advantages.
Clearly the war has not yet reached
the police stage. The Beers proved once
more that they could plan a oattle with
skill. and while they were driven on
they made an effective demonstration
OF fighting force which would seem tc
put an end to all rumors OF peace nego-
tiations. This is the Interpretation which
Mr.. Kruger's group Of advisors in Hol'
land place upon 4. An irrepressibl'
conflict goes on with a revival Of cour
age on the BOer side.

ers to return, under the same condl-

ing before the strike.
In explaining the attitude Of the en-
ployers toward the strikers, the bosses
say that, in view of the forthcoming

at New York June II, it would be fol-
" for a small number Of employers on
