legation Monday:
Prospecting the capture at Sinmintin

officer who repaired there in breach
Of parole, a St. Petersburg semi-otllcial
telegraph agency published the eXcuse
to the effect that in returning home
from Shanghai to Russia he took the
route by the Chinese railway, and
therefore the japanese report is found

were liberated upon the surrender Of
Port Arthur, had each and all sworn
IN writing. according 20 the terms OF
CapitulatiOn. to the effect that they
would not act contrary to the interest
OF Japan. The japanese government
being convinced that the returning TO
Russia of such officers through the
wal zone is detrimental to the mill
tary operations, decided that they
should not in any case be allowed to
take that route, and the decision was
expressly communicated 20 them at the
time. 1t is therefore clear that the
Russian officers arrival at Sinmintln,
lying within the zone Of hoStilities,
constitutes a breach of the parole"

lowing account: Il was attacked by a
numbness or dull feeling just back of my
right hip. I didn't know what the mat.
ter was, but thought it was simply q
stiffness that would wear away in a
short time. 1t didn't, however, and
soon the pain became 81 very bad that
every step was torture for me. When I
finally succeeded in getting home, it was
Just as much as I could do to reach my
room and get to bed.

had examined me he said l had sciatica.

to try to leave my bed. The advice was

The moment ! attempted to move any
part Of my body, the pain became SO OK
cruciating that l would have to lie per-
fectly motionless.
81 suffered this torture for six months
without getting any relief. Then l dis
charged the doctor, and III the advice of
a friend I bought n box of DR.. Williams
Pink Pals and began to take them, three

terinined to give them a thorough trial.
1.-TWO months after 1 began to use
them / was able to leave my bed and
walk about the house, and a month later
