KUROPATKIN HOLDS LAPS IN CHECK
After Five Days Battle on the Hun Cxnr's Army Maintains Position Near Mukden, Making Many
 Assaults With Big Guns.

LONDON, Feb. ?. Advices from Russian headquarters, Huan mountain, say that the five days battle on the Hun river has yielded no palpable re- suit, both sides practically maintaining their former positions, though it is true that at heavy cost the Russians sue ceeded in driving the Japanese out of their advanced positions and repelling their fanking column. The Russian cavalry proved extremely efficient. There is again Hull in the campaign, and it is possible that military opera tions will be suspended until the end of February.
 A Tokyo dispatch says that Field Marshal Oyama reports that the Rus sians have bombarded his center and right wing and sent small bodies of in fantry to attack the Japanese out posts, where they were repulsed. At the same time heavy Russian guns fiercely shelled Piyentai and Chen chiehpao.
 lhS NURSERIES pao, Lapati and Litajentan, and two companies of infantry attacked Chen chiehpao, advancing from the south end near Peitaitzu. The Japanese re. pulsed them.
 Admiral Togo returns to his flagship on Feb 6. The immediate naval plans are not disclosed.
 General kuropatkin has reported that Sandepas has been set on fire by the Russian artillery.
 The Russians continue the bombard- ment of Sandepas. and apparently a strong force of Russians is between Sandepas and Shaksepu to check the Japanese. who seem to be trying to use their former turning movement across the Hun river.
 The forward movement upon the part of the Russians seems to indicate q de sire to strike soon in a desperate at tempt to avenge the fall of Port Ar thur Probably the revolutionary out. break in Russia has determined Gen. eral Kuropatkin to make d desperate effort to gain a victory before the out break in Russia becomes known to the army

PUZZLED BY CHILD THIEF.
Father of Youthful Prisoner Kept Poor by Expectations of His
 Ten Year-Old Son. F.

Chicago.-Poverty has descended on the home of Marion Szadokierski, 649 Ashland avenue, because of the thefts of Stephen, his ten-year-old son, ac-, cording to a story told Judge Mack in the juvenile court.
 The child has become an object of attention from physicians and scien- lists as we'll as policemen, and an ip- Quiry has been started by Judge Mack to learn why he steals.
 Superintendent Bodine, of the con- pulsory education department of the schools, has been apprised of the first results of the scientific study of Ste- phen. It was declared in the court that the lad has been found to suffer growth asymetries and movement ab- nor,nalities," and the physicians have still to examine him.
 The boy, so police of the Maxwell street district said, has been stealing things for year. His father, weeping, told the judge it had made him poor to pay for the goods his son had stolen. He declared, in broken Polish, that he could not understand why his son is dishonest. Stephen smiled as his shortcomings were told.
 Whats the matter, my boy?" que ried the judge. stephen smiled.
 Why do you steal things?"
 stephen continued smiling. It was his only answer.
 To aid the judge was presented q letter written by D. P. MacMillan, di- rector of the department of scientific pedagogy and child study in the schools. It was sent to Superintendent Bodine and told of the older Szadokier. skis taking his son to the child study laboratory to be studied
 Director MacMillan said of Stephen:
 'On January 16 he was given a psycho- phy sical examination. of which the fol- lowing is a. brief report:
 Physically he is below the average norms of height. weight. strength, en- turance and vital capacity for the age given-ten years eight months. He nas number of growth asyme,ries and movement abnormalities, but neither are so pronounced as to mark him gener- ically delinquent or of unsocial tend sncies.
 l Mentally he is bright. In all the tests given to determine his grade of in- telligence and native ability he stands well within the limits of any child of American parents of like age and social opportunities"

Largest Store.

The honor of possessing the great est store in the world belongs to Rus sia. It is situated in Moscow, covers 20 acres, and embraces thousand diff ferent establishments. each of which has it's own proprietor. The place is, in fact, a sort of bazar, consisting not only of shops on the ground floor but also on three floors above it.
 The merchandise offered for sale Is described as of fabulous value-it amounts, in fact, to millions of dol lars. The prices of the wares are not marked. The Russians are much given to bargaining for and cheapening the goods they buy. and in buying at the bazar most of them negotiate" with the tradesman much in the oriental fashion.

time there will be 500 by 1906. The buffaloes roam all over the preserve during nine months in the year. In the coldest months they are retained within an inclosure of 1000 acres and fed on hay, which is cut on the swale lands of the park.
 They are provided with shelters of brush, but are not housed at all for the winter. The cost of winter feed ing is slight! AS living buffalo in good condition is worth $500 or more. and as a single buffalo skin is valued at $2O0, the increase in this herd will soon yield revenues enough to pay the whole expense of keeping up the park. This can be done from the surplus stock, and as many animals as the lands will support may be kept in per petuity.
 Outside of the money features of the plan. Mir. Corbin did a great service for humanity by proving that under average care buffaloes may be made to live out of doors in any of the New England states. From now on any naturalist who wishes to study these animals in their native haunts may do so without having to cross the conti- nent.
 MT. Corbin has been dead for num- Der of years. The fact that he was the head of a great railroad and the other fact that he was the creator of great system of hotels-these are almost for gotten. But the memory of Corbin park will endure as a monument to his memory for all time.

BUFFALO WILL LIVE

Game Park on Connecticut Rive, Where Big Animals Thrive Out
 in the Open-Service for Humanity.

More than 20 years ago, when Aus tin Corbin bought township of wild . land on the banks of the Connecticut river. near Newport, N. H., and fenced 1t with barbed wire and stocked 1t with wild game animals, he had no idea oi doing any public favor. He was rich Having full control of the great Read. ing system of railroads and coal mines and iron furnaces in eastern Pennsyl' vania and earning money faster than he could invest it to advantage, he took 1t into his head that he would like to have hunting park all to him. self.
 So he bought and fenced 25,000 acres of almost worthless wild lands and stocked them with moose, deer. elk wild boars and buffalo. The barbed wire fence was ten feet high, and there were "A miles of 1t. He built a few lodges to hold his keepers and left the rest to luck.
 But that chopped over and aban' doned strip of wild timber land has been a most wonderful investment. II has grown up to forest trees which are yielding big income on the invest ment from doing no more. than to thin out the standing trees so that those which remain may grow faster. The wild boars have multiplied so rapidly >that hundreds of them are shot every year by the hunters. The moose and elk are doing nicely and increasing until the herds will soon have to be thinned out to give food to the sur vivors.
 Best of all, the Corbin experiment has proved that buffalo may be made to thrive as far north as Augusta. Me. and no doubt still further. The orig. inal herd was composed of about % animals. They were much exhausted from their long journey by rail when brought to Newport and for a few years the rate of increase was not encourag ing. Some six years ago the herd took a start. since which time the increase has been remarkable. Two years ago when he had increased the herd te about 100, the son of Mir. Corbin gave 25 of them to the geological park ir New York city. but the experiment did not succeed as well as it should have done and the new herd has done nc more than hold It's own.
 Meanwhile the animals in Corbif park have continued to multiply amaz inely. This last summer there were 16O healthy and happy buffaloes ir the park. and if none are killed mean

1t Is neither too wide nor too narrow ca the limb. In this way 1t lightens the work of the weak and overstrained veins A case is noted of a man with varicose veins, swollen almost to burst ing, in both legs, and most painful, who put on such bandages and continued dig ging and working with perfect ease. while the veins sensibly contracted with no other treatment than this.
 But 1t Is not wise to confine remedial measures in such cases to the use of bandages. Rest is. in some instances, absolutely necessary.
 Strong. moist heat, applied by bran poultice across the launches, after olive oil has been rubbed on gently, and with the same rubbed on afterward to retain the heating which has been se- cured. is of great importance.
 Proceed in this way, if possible, with a case of swollen veins-secure the con- finement of the patient to his bed for at least a week. The first night, an hour before the usual bedtime, place a large bran poultice across the hips; after having rubbed on a little warm olive oil let this remain, say 15 minutes; re- move and rub again with the oil; then place good, broad band of new flannel 'ound the body. In the morning apply another poultice in the same way, and for the same length of time to the same part. When that is removed, rub the limbs gently for few moments, first with hot vinegar and then with the olive oil, after which dress them in a pair of cotton stockings.
 If, at the end of week, the veins are not all right, order repetition of the same treatment. If you can secure this you will not likely need to order any, thing further For security, a bandage. or, if both legs are bad two bandages should afterward be worn above the knees, and standing too long strictly forbidden.
 l have known of very good results in cases of varicose veins from the use of cell salts or tissue elements, but it is wise to have them selected for each case by some one who understands their use, as the best results are secured in that way, although these are natural and harmless home remedies.
 sincerely hope that this lecture may reach many poor sufferers from this dis ease. They may, perhaps. suggest to | some the benevolence of giving, when it is within their power, the means of the rest needed by those so afflicted. This can be done in many ways. Where a full cure in one of these cases is gift it is a gift indeed. He who does not forget cup of cold water" will not fail to remember such benefit con | ferred upon one of his little ones'

CLUB NOTES.

Watervliet.-Dr. David H. Reeder, La porte, Ind.-Dear Doctor: wish to give a good remedy for scah head in young babies. have known it to effect a cure in several cases. Take one large teacupful of tar, one cup of unsalted lard. and one cup of the inner bark of common elder, and boil all together. First boil the lard and elder bark and then drain of the liquid and add the tar to it. When cold it is ready for use. This remedy has cured three children whom the doctors said could not be cured. and when this remedy is used the patient will stay cured. Yours truly, Mrs. B. C.
 Sometimes the methods of home treatment given by mothers are better than any doctor can give. The above is harmless in any event, and l would like to have reports from others who use it.
 Minneapolis. Minn.-Dr David H. Reeder, Laporte, Ind Dear Sir: AS understand that the subscribers of this paper have the privilege of writing you in regard to affairs of health, I herewith ask you to be so kind and tell me what is the best treatment for rheumatism. which moves from one place to another in the body. In the summer, 1t affects the back-which is weak-and the right wrist, the most severely, while in win- ter it reaches farther up to the shoul- ders and breast, where it has attacked me now. This. attack is very severe, for can hardly breathe. and phlegm and mucus have accumulated like an iceberg in my chest Sometimes 1t lasts few days or longer. and then will be rid of it for little while, but it returns readily with every change of the weather. also when become little
 warm and suddenly cool off. have catarrh of the throat. have great deal of trouble to clear it, and seems as if ii would suffocate me. This trou- bles me the most in the upper part Of
 the chest When it is loosened. feel better. but when I become chilled and the attack of rheumatism comes on. 1 am much worse. I thank you in ad- vance for your kind instructions for me
 personally. and also for what secure from the newspapers. Respectfully.
 l.. F.
 The form of rheumatism which you
 have described is caused by uric acId crystals. which in passing through the circulation cut and injure the delicate lining of the veins. This sometimes is called neuralgia. If you would make a practice of getting to creamery daily and drinking about three quarts of fresh buttermilk. say drink one quart at three different times daily, 1t would go far toward permanently eliminating the disease from the system. For immediate relief. however. think you would be wise to procure about half an ounce of the Schuessler tissue element or cell salt known as Magnesia PhOs.. also
 about an equal quantity, of Nat Phos- | in what is called sx tablets. Ths should be taken alternately about every | three hours. two tablets at time. from the time YOU arise until you go to bed. | These tissue clements will not harm you in any way and do not injure the ! stomach. You should also use great | care to masticate all of your food very | thoroughly
