There is more Catarrh in this section

stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it ipcurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and there

ment. Halls Catarrh Cure, man

Kuroki Turning Enemy's Left.

Mukden. July 16.-The wounds re-
ceiyed by the Russian soldiers belong
ing to the eastern army show that part
of the troops composing General Kuro-
ki's army are territorial soldiers, armed
with a rife of a different pattern from
those used by the regular army. The
bullets are envel0ped in copper. Some
bullets of very large caliber have been
found. The Russian soldiers say these
were doubtless crossed. When the jap
anese appear to be turning the Russian
left in great numbers the belief now is
that the movement is purely demon
strative.

nEElclAL NEWS LACKING
Russians Positive Heavy Fighting Has
Occurred at Port Arthur.

Occurred at Port Arthur.
St Petersburg. July ia Russian
correspondent of the Associated Press
in the field repeats the story Of a Jap
anese disaster at Port Arthur July 10.
but does not add any details except
the statement that after the repulse
the japanese fed in great disorder pur-
sued by the Russians.
He says that an aide 20 General Rem
nenkampff and seven cossacks were
wounded in the skirmish in which the
general was shot (between Liaoyang
and Saimatza. in which the Japanese
were repulsed).
TWO divisions of Japanese reinforce
ments are landing at DalDy. the CORE
spondent says. and adds that wounded
Japanese prisoners captured on Black
Mountain who died subsequently were
buried with military honors.
The lack of further official news re-
garding the engagement at Port Arthur
on the night of July 10 is very puz2ling.
That the Japanese were heavily de-
feated is not doubted here, but in the
absence of further information the eX-
tent of the disaster that befell them is
beginning to be seriously questioned.
Definite news has been received from
Vicer0y Alexieff's headquarters at Muk-
den that the week before the engage
ment at Port Arthur Major General
Fock administered a severe defeat on
the Japanese July 4 and 3, driving them
them from the heights commanding
Lunsantan Pass with a loss Of 1000.
This is considered here as proof that
there has been heavy fighting before
the fortress of Port arthur and as max
ing the silence of Toxic regarding it
all the more significant.

rhs Preaeher,a Evidence.

Roland, ILL.,, June 27.-Diabetes has
so long been looked upon as an in
durable form OF kidney disease that

from backache 10 rheumatism are
naturally much more easily cured by

WHY HOT WEATHER MAKES WOMEN NERVOUS.
Suggestions by Or. Hartman.-How
TO Combat the Nervous Depression
Incident to Warm Weather.

Nervousness is very common among
women. This condition Is duo TO
an@mlc nerve centers. The nerve cen
tiers are the reservoir for nerve vitality.
These centers become bloodless Tor the
want of proper nutrition.
This condition is especially noticeable
during the warm season. Every sum
mer an army of invalids are produced as
direct result of weak nervous systems.
This could easily be overcome by the
use of Peruna. Peruna strikes at the
root of the trouble by correcting the
digestion. Perfect digestion furnishes
increased nutrition for the nerve cen
ters Perfectly digested food gives these
reservoirs of life vitality which Gre
ates strong, steady nerves, and I'm this
manner fortifies and nourisheS life.
Miss Blanche Grey prominentyonng
society woman of Memphis, Tenn, in "a
recent letter from TIA Alabama street,
writes: ITO society woman whose
nervous force is often taxed to the
utmost from lack of rest and irregular
meals, know Of nothing which Is of so.
much benefit as Peruna. / took il a
few months ago when felt my strength
giving way, and IL soon made Itself
manifest In giving me new strength
and health. Miss Blanche Grey.
Pe-ru-ua Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in so many homes is that
II contains no narcotic of any kind. Pc
runa is perfectly harmless. It can DO
used any length of time without acquir-
| ing drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results. 1t is peIma-
nent in its effect.
IL has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause of catarrh. There
are multitude of homes where Peruna
has been used off and on for twenty
years. Such a thing could not De pos
sible if Peruna contained any drugs OF
a narcotic nature.
At this season OF the>year we aro'
peculiarly liable to infiammationso of the
stomach and bowels. 1t is the part of
wisdom to learn how TO cut them-short
and in the easist and quickest manner.
Peruna does this by its peculiar power

WAYS OF WILD CREATURES.
Easy Victim Preferred by Those Who
Prey on Their Fellows.

In a recently published book on
fishing. w. S. Hodgson, an English
sportsman, argues that when a fish
of the salmon kind, or pike, takes a
real minnow impaled on a flight OF
hooks or a manufactured thing re-
sembling a minnow the fish IS moved
less by a desire TO eat than by de-
sire to kill. He derives this impress
sion from the fact that "a salmon or a
trout, like a pike, will leave whole
shoal of minnows undisturbed, and
rush at an impaled minnow, or q phan'
tom" critic OF the book says:
Surely this is very farfetched. Fish
and birds of prey, like human beings,
are averse to unnecessary trouble, and
as 1t is easier TO catch a wounded
creature than a fresh one. peregrine
will take an injured grouse or pike
q tethered or spinning bait when II
comes in his way, not because Of the
instinct which leads wild animals TO
kill the weaker brethren, but from
the natural tendency to take the
goods the gods provide you In the
shape of a cheaply earned and easy
meal" IL may be added that old
guides of northern Wisconsin hold
with Mr.. Hodgson that the muskel
lunge strikes the bait ordinarily only
when he feels savage and desires to
kill something.
