st. Petersburg. June 1.-THE Japa-
nese advance OF columns north and
south Of Fengwangcheug Is causing
considerable mystifieation
The preponderanee OF military opin-
ion still incIlnes to the belief that the
movements in both directions are
feints. although the opinion that Gen
eraI Kurold has begun q serious adj.
vance BY both tanks against Liaoyang
does not lack supporters.
Renewed skirnishing Is reported in
the neighborhood OF Siuyen. but there
is no confirmation officially Of the en-
gagement reported at Haieheng. IN the
direction Of the Fengwangeheng road.
which was reported to have resulted in
the loss of two japanese battalions.
should this report slrn out to be true
1t would show that The Japanese are
advancing toward Haioheng by two
roads. as the column reported engaged
must have been dinerent from the one
which drove out the Russians from STU
yen on the road farther south.
Absolute confirmation is not quite oh.

armies is distinctly discouraged, news

A Good Story Illustrating One of the
characteristics of Grover Cleveland.
Grover Cleveland had the reputation
Of being a self -willed man when he was
in the Presidency, but there Is abund-
ant reason for believing that he adj
mired positive men even when they OPP
posed his wishes. Shortly after his
second election a delegation Of eminent
Democrats from one of the eastern
recommend a noted lawyer, who shall
be called Mr. Brief, for a high Federal
position. The President examined the
rlaims of the delegation carefully and
satisfied himself of the fitness Of the
man. He seemed impressed thought
he would make the appointment, bur
asked for a few days to consider the
matter further.
In 4S hours fierce fractional tight
arose and outside interests trOtt2d out
a second candidate for the place. The
second candidate had papers and petl-
lions by the bushel. A week passed and
the President sent for the delegation
who had recommended Mr.. Brief
"Gendemen," said the President. in
substance "a very ugly fractional fight
has arisen over the appointment of Mr..
Brief. Now, | suggest that you with
draw his name and give me two more
names as a second and third choice.
"A1r. President" said the spokesman,
tive are your friends and always have
been. We represent your organized
supporters. The man we present is

The President nodded his head IN

present the name of Mr.. Brief as our
choice for this position"
Yes" rejoined the executive pleas

"Our second choice is Mr.. Brlef.

The President must have admired
this loyal persistency in standing by

THE season of catching cold is upon

THE season of catching cold is upon
i u.s. The cough and the sneeZe
and nasal twang are to be heard on
every hand The origin of chrome
catarrh, the most common and dread
ful of diseases, is cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh
generally begins. A person catches
cold, which hangs on longer than us
ual. The cold generally starts i'll the
head and throat. Then follows sensi-
tiveness of the air passages which in
cline one to catch cold very easily.
At last the person has cold all the
while seemingly, more or less dis
charge from the nose, hawking, spit
ting, frequent clearing of the throat,
nostrils stopped up, full feeling in
the head and sore, inflamed throat.
The best time to treat catarrh is at
the very beginning. A bottle of Pc
runa properly used never fails to cure
common cold, thus preventing
chronic catarrh.
While many people have been cured
of chronic catarrh by single bottle
of Peruna. yet, as rule, when the
catarrh becomes thoroughly fixed,
more than one bottle is necessary to
complete IA cure. Peruna has cured
cases innumerable of catarrh of TWEEN
ty years standing. 1t is the best, if
not the only internal remedy for
chronic catarrh in existence.
But prevention is far better than
cure. Every person subject to catch
ing cold should take Peruna at once
at the slightest symptom of cold or
sore throat at this season of the year
and thus prevent what is almost GER
tain to end in chronic catarrh.
