CATARRH OF STOMACH THRE EYAATsEENED LIFE.
Pc ru Promptly Restored Her to Health and
Beauty.
A Heavy, Bloated Feeling of the Stom-
acll-Heartburn, and a Belch-
ing Up of Gas, Entirely
Done Away With.

Miss Sadie Brunell, member of the
Benevolent Sewing Circle, 27S Pearl
St, Buffalo. N Y. writes:
81 wish to express my appreciation
of Peruna. l. was great sufferer
from catarrh of the stomach and was
treated by several physicians, but with
little relief. Finally Peruna was rec
commended to me by friend, and soon
after beginning to take the medicine
experienced much relief and at the
end of FIVE months was entirely
cured, L had suffered with heartburn
at times, also sour stomach, and often
after eating my stomach felt heavy
and belched up gas. My stomach
clothes around my waist. 1t is over
year since L discontinued taking Pc
runa for my trouble, and am able to
eat anything L desire without expert
encing any Inconvenience, and L do
not hesitate to say, that / am entirely
cured. Miss Sadie BruneI.
The Bane of Her Life Was Stomach
Trouble.
Miss Gertrude Pogue, 14O7 Central
Ave-, Cincinnati, Ohio, Secretary So
cial Economics Club, writes:
Stomach trouble has been the bane
of my existence for a good many
years. I tried a number of remedies
for dyspepsia and indigestion, think
ing that was the trouble, but nothing
helped me until took the right medi-
cine for the right trouble. I was suf-
fer1ng with catarrh of the stomach
and did not know it. Peruna took
hold of the seat of the trouble and
soon exterminated it from my system.
1 have a splendid appetite now, my
food does not distress me and I am
growing fleshier. 1 have a look of
health which l have not had for |
years.''-Miss Gertrude Pogue.
Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found |
permanent use in so many homes is |
that it contains no narcotic of any |
kind. Peruna is perfectly harmless. |
1t can be used any length of time |
without acquiring a drug habit. Pc
runa does not produce temporary re- |
suits. 1t is permanent in its effect.

win Reject mediation.

London. Aug. 2s.-It is stated posi-.
lively. in connection with tho revival
OF the rumors OF mediation. that En-.
peror Nicholas only recently an.
nJunced in the most positive terms
that he would not permit peace negoti.
atoms even should Port Arthur fall
and General Kuropatkin be driven
back TO Harbin.
This fact. well understood in Official
circles. has prevented the British gov
ernment from taking any steps In tho
direction OF mediation. Il is known
here that Germany understands this
attitude of the Emperor as well rs
Great Britain and other powers. There.
fore the reports from Paris that En-.
pcror William is prepared to suggest
peace Is dismissed as groundless, for
the present at least.
n General Kuropatkin. however.
should win decisive victory at Lao
Yang, which in n measure would re-
store Russian prestige. It is believed
here. that the restoration Of peace
would be materially facilitated.

FALL BACK AGAIN
RUSSIANS CONTINUE TO RETIRE.
Troops Ordered to Retreat When They
Expected to Advance-Japaness
Moving Forward Along En-.
tire Front.

Lao Yang, Aug. 28.-7:l0 p. m.-
Tho Russian forces have been disnp-
pointed by another unexpected with
drawal. Tho whole eastern diyision
and the troops on tho Anshanshan Po-
Sition have been ordered to fall back
To positions nearer Lao Yang Just M
tho soldiers were expecting another
advance.
The Japanese are not following tho
Russians. The advance from tho
south IN apparently being pushed
home. Sounds OF artillery from that
direction are palmer than they wero
yesterday.
The Chinese Mt Lao Yang are bring.
Ing out women and children. which
they usually do when cXpectin. Jap
ancse advance.
The Russians had sustained hot
artillery fight NIL OF August 2Gth on tho
eastern front. but held aii their posi-
tons.
At 6 o'clock In the evening tho Asso-
ciatcd Press correspondent crossed
over to the left flank. Tho under.
standing was that tho Russians would
concentrate in the morning for an at
tack on the Japanese In that direction
and the surprise was greater therefore
At the order to retire.
The explanation In given that the
Tenth corps. especially General
Hcrschelmnn's division on tho extreme
left. was confronted by u greatly nu.
pcrior force OF Japanese. Though the
Russians fought brayciy and held all
their positions. they had lost M I'm
mcnsc number OF officers.
Most probably the retirement from
tho Anshnnshan position arose from
the samc reason tina; tho whole noun
tnin division. nx well M tho eastern
troops. retired apparently not because
OF the pressure Of the Japanese but for
strategic reasons.
Tho rains had made n thick and
binding mud which almost pnrnlyEod
wagon transportation and made tho
movement of guns even more dinlcult.
Though the Japanese witnessed tho
slow retirement OF the eastern division
they made no attempt To follow tho
Russians. being apparently cshnunted
by tho duel OF August stth and August
:5th and tho desperate unHuccohnfui
nli.day attack OF August :cth.
To-day the sound Of cnnnonnding 10
heard palmer In Lao Yang. II In moro
to tho south than to the Houthcast-
Tho Japanese seem To be advancing
along tho entire front. particularly
moving with large force UP tho vai'
| ley Of the Lao river.
