HARD TO COMBAT.
The Evidences Of Our Senses.
What Montpelier People Say
Is Pretty Good Proof
for Montpelier
People.

When we see it ourselves.
When our own ears hear it,
When our neighbors tell it,
Our friends endorse 1T,
No better evidence can be had.
It's not what people say in Maine.
Or distant mutterings in California.
No deceivlng echoes here.
Montpelier people talk about Mont

Public opinions published for the
public good.
There is no proof like home proof.

Barrel residence Pioneer Mills, one

says: 1t is all of eight years since
first noticed pain in the small Of my
back. By and by from small attacks it
became constant. If l made quick
move / was sure to be rewarded by
a sharp twinge across the IONS, and
any extra work which brought a
strain on the back either compelled
me to rest or suffer, and added to
these conditions there WAS trouble
with the kidney secretions. A friend
recommended Doan's Kidney Pills
very highly and insisted upon my
taking a course of the treatment. Fol
lowing his advice | went to W. K.
Poole's drug store, in Montpelier, and
bought two boxes. The effect was
prompt and the effect permanent.

Doan's Kidney Pills to others and l
have yet to learn of one case where
they we're not as beneficial as in my
own.

pened, for he not only met and rerul-
sed. but actually disabled by superior
forces, overlapped and enveloped the
Japanese. Last night both armies
bivouaced in their positions.
The battle divided itself into two
periods; after a preliminary bonn
bardment of the Russian line on the
west and center, the Japanese infant
ry advanced to the attack, charging
the Russian center. Although re-
peatedly checked. they came on with
bulldog tencity, hurting themselves
against the Russian positions with
the bayonet. There were many bloody
hand to hand encounters. By night
the japanese actually succeeded in
occupying portion of the Russian
trenches. Chen General Kuropatkin
sent forward reserves, delivered a
series of counter attacks. recaptured
the lost positions and drove back the
Japanese all along the line. the attack
on center having failed.
The second half of the fight began
at four O'Clock in the afternoon when
the Japanese tried to turn and roll up
the Russian right. Here also they
failed. but only after desperate
struggle, which was continued until
nine O'Clock at night.
Reserves despatched in time by
General Kuropatkin at last succeeded
in not only checking the Japanese. but
in enveloping and driving them in con
fusion.

to go out tomorrow. The order will
