ULATION SUFFER FROM ONE
PAINFUL AILMENT.

Think. what this means. Imagine the
amount of misery that exists and is endured
simply because people do not know there is
an absolute cure.
The only way to cure any complaint is to
remove the cause. There are very few dis
eases or ailments that can be cured by ex
ternal application-and piles is not one of
them. Piles can be cured; the treatment
must, however, be internal, for the cause of
piles is an internal disorder of the liver or
the bowels. Even catarrh of the stomach
and bowels can be cured by DR.. PERKINS,
PILE SPECIFIC, The Internal Remedy.
Here is an instance of what this practically
infallible remedy will do:
DR.. c. A. Perrin, Helena, Mont.-Dear
Sir: have nearly finished the former bottle
of PERKINS, Pile Specific and am practically
well. My case was one which most physi-
clans would have pronounced incurable, as
was afflicted with dysentery and compelled
to 60 to the toilet room from three to five
times each day and each time would bleed
from one-hal to one teacupfuL I had to
resort to bandages and absorbent cotton to
check the flow Of blood, and now the past
ten or twelve days there has been no sign Of
bleeding and my appetite is good have
gained ten pounds in weight and feel like
new lease Of life was given me. S

JAPS HOT ON THE RUSSIAN TRAIL.
Following Up Advantage Gained Sunday--Plans OF
Campaign in Russian Hands.

Che Foo, May 3,-Reports received
here yesterday state that General ku-
roki has moved his entire army across
the Yalu and Is pushing the advantage
gained in the recent fighting to the ut
most. His army is said to be moving
In three columns. The center, under
his personal command, is marching di-
rect on Feng Wang Cheng Another
column under General Ogaiva is said
to be marching on Kwan Tun, and the
third under General Inouye has Stoue
Sen as it's objective. There have been
numerous small engagements with the
Russian rear guard, but no serious
fighting. 1t is not believed there will
be any further general engagements
until Feng Wang Cheng is reached.
If the Russians decide to hold their
line there, it is, regarded as probable
that there will be hard fighting. The
place is strongly defended by earth
works and redoubtsi, and the Russians
are believed to have not less than So
900 in and about that point. These can
be readily reinforced from Lao Yang.
The full strength of the Japanese
army is not known here, but it is be-
lieved to include not less than $4,000
men of all arms, and may he consider
ably more.

wanted to thank those who had come
to see him. The black cap was then

She was not able to do her work and
could not even mend clothes or do
anything at all where she would have
to bend toward. If she tried to do
little hard work she would get such
pains that she would have to lie down

The japanese are said to- be landing
a large number of men at Taku Shan,
some accounts placing the number at
full army corps of three divisions
No certain news has been received
from Taku Shan, but the landing is
regarded as altogether probable. This
army has been used either to rein
force Kuroki, if it is needed. or to
march westward and cut off Port Ar
thur. With fairly good roads which
they would have at their command
they could reach Kinchow in some
thing less than aweek.
Reports of Russian operations in
Eastern Korea are altering through,
and it appears that a strong force is
working in behind the Japanese army
in pursuance of a prearranged plan
and news of d surprising character is
looked for from that quarter.
A rumor reached here from Toxic to
the effect that the Japanese plans of
campaign have been sold to the Rus
slams ~by a staff officer and that the
whole campaign must be changed.
