ONE WORD IN TIME
Is Better Than Two Afterwards--A Chance
To Profit by Paw Paw Woman's Exper-
ience.

tits strange thing how people
will put away an opportunity un-
til too late. It's only little things
that 60 to make up our everyday
existence. The trouble is we
don't pay sufficient attention to
them. Backache is little thing.
Sometimes it comes after a hard
days work. or slight cold. 1t
will pass off, you say; it's only
the result of overtaxing my back.
1t isn't the fault of your back,
but your kidneys. The exertion
or straining has interfered with
their delicate mechanism. You
call it backache but it really is
kidney-ache. If the kidneys are
not relieved chronic disorders
set in. and this is where the "lit-
tie thing" should not be passed
over. "A Paw Paw woman has
learned to appreciate what delay
means.
Mrs. II. S. Harris, a resident
of Paw Paw for 20 years, says:
IL am very much pleased with
the satisfactory results obtained
from using Doan's Kidney Pills
procured at Martin & Shower
mans drug store / have every
reason to believe them to be an
excellent remedy for weakened
or over-excited kidneys, and |
readily endorse the claims made
for them"

Expect Kuropatkin TO Act.

London, Jan. 1.-THE tone Of the
rescript addressed by Emperor Mich
olas to the army and navy is regarded
here as putting an end TO all present
hopes of the possibility OF mediation
or peace and indicating the likelihood
that Kuropatkin soon will resume the
offensive. The Daily Telegraphs Che
foo correspondent says Mischtschenko's
raid was only a diversion from mass
of cavalry now moving down the banks
of the Lao river, and that the ex-
ceptional mildness Of the season at
fords chance for the repetition of
such operations.

JAPs ENTER PORT ARTHUR
Finally See the Inside Of the Place
They Besieged.

Tien Tsin, Jan. 1.-THE victorious
japanese army Sunday formally en-
tered Port Arthur. General Nogi w tn
his staff entered first through the old
town and took his stand in the pub IT,
square Of the new town. The army
was represented by one regiment from
each brigade.
The procession which was five miles
long was three hours passing the salut-
ing base after which the troops passed
out Of the city through the new town,
The correspondents then visited the
captured city for the first time. The
old town buildings were badly smash
ed by shells but in the new town the
damage was slight All the Shipping
in the harbor was badly damaged by
shell fire, the warships being practical
ly useless owing to the injuries they
had sustained by shells.
Proposals for the surrender of Port
Arthur were first made Dec 20 at Il
council Of war. General Stoessel was
in favor Of surrender, but some OF
his general officers were bitterly op-
posed TO IL. The regimental officers
and the troops were not consulted. The
first news they had Of the surrender
was Jan. | after General Stoessel had
communicated with the japanese
The scenes following the surrender
were disgraceful. Drunken soldiers
filed the streets and refused to obey
their officers. Many of them destroyed
the guns upon the positions they had
defended and came into the city with
out permission. The infantry loudly
protested that the fortress had been
given away. They threw their rifles
and ammunition into the harbor and
proceeded to break into warehouse
and loot and drink vodka until in a
