THE season of catching cold is upon
/ US. The cough and the sneeze and
nasal twang are to be heard on
every hand. The origin of chronic
catarrh, the most common and dreadful
of diseases, is cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh
generally begins. A person catches cold.
which hangs on longer than usual The
cold generally starts in the head and
throat Thenfollows sensitivene SIS of the
air passages which incline one to catch
cold very easily. AT last the person has
a cold all the while seemingly, more or
less discharge from the nose. hawking,
splitting, 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 Peruna
properly used never fails to cure a COM
mon cold, thus preventing chronic
catarrh.
While many people have been cured
of chronic catarrh by a single bottle of
Peruna, yet, as rule. when the catarrh
becomes thoroughly fixed, more than
one bottle is necessary to complete a
cure. Peruna has cured cases innumer-
able of catarrh of twenty years stand
ing. 1t is the best. if not the only
internal remedy for chronic catarrh in
existence.
Butprevention is far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching 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 certain to
end in chronic catarrh.

JAPANESE REFUGEES BEATEN
United states Consul Miller, at New
ChNans. Intcrposes in Their Be-
half, and is Himself
MenaceI.

New Chwang, Sunday. Feb. IA
About 50 japanese men, on their way
TO Tien Tsin. were arrested at Tai Hi
Chou February II with their women
and arrived here in custody. The
American consul, Henry T. Miller. pro-
cured the release of the women, but
Viceroy Alexieff ordered their rearrest
and transportation, together with all
the Japanese in Manchuria, to Port
Arthur
Busis of Mr.. Miller's Action.
Mr.. Miller based his action on assur-
ances the Russians gave the japanese
consul that all Japanese subjects would
be protected and permitted to leave
when they desired.
There are numerous complaints OF
Russian i'll treatment. 1t is said that
400 Japanese refugees from Harbin and
elsewhere, who arrived at Mukden,
February 10, were arrested, and that
many of them were severely beaten
until they purchased their release.
When they were liberated the japanese
were sent in open trucks to Tai Hal
Chou, where they were again mall
treated ard sent on to Port Arthur.
Some of their women were sent to New
Chwang. Consul Miller took the wom-
en- under his protection and sent them
to Shan Hai Kwan
Lodged Protest.
Mr. Miller protested to the civil ad-
ministrator against the cruel treatment
of the Japanese refugees by Russian
soldiers. and requested a census of all
Japanese transported to Port Arthur.
Consul Himself Menaced.
The consul himself was menaced by
a Cossaok, without provocation, and
he officer commanding at New Chwang
expressed his regrets and promised to
severely punish the Cossack. The civil
administrator promised 10 afford better
protection to the refugees.
Independent naval officers say the
Czarevitch, Retvizan, Pallada and No
yik. damaged in the naval battle Off
Port Arthur. can not be repaired in
time to decide the command of the sea.
They also say the Russian land forces
are demoralized. They are trying to
watch the entire coast.
Prepared to Destroy Their Ship.
The officers of the Russian gunboat
| Sivoutch at New Chwang, declared
they are prepared to blow up their
vessel i'll case Of danger. They are
employing a searchlight all night long
| over the surrounding plains.
| The constant telegrarhic Interrupt
| tions threaten to complete the isola-
ton of the war zone, except by dis
patch boats. Admiral Alexieff has for
| hidden all ships to enter any of the
ports of the Lao Tung peninsula. It
is understood that his object is to
| carry out the defenses of the harbors,
which hitherto have been neglected.
| Foreigners are not permitted to move
| without military permits.
Sending Missionaries Away.
| The foreign missions at Mukden, ap-
| pretending a Chinese outbreak are
sending the missionaries with families
! away.
The reports that japanese ships have
been using searchlights off New
Chwang and off the coast near Min
Chou are fictitious.
There are about 1000 Russian troops
now at New Chwang.
