ST0ESSEL NOT A HERO
London Times Says History Records
No More Discreditable
Surrender.

London. Jan. 25.-The Times CORE
spondent at Peking. who has returned
from a visit at Port Arthur describes
the Impressions he gathered there, and
says:
without seeing them. nobody could
form any idea of the stuDendous
strength of the forts or the incredible
heroism displayed in their capture. No
foreign officer is able to explain the
eason for the surrender of Port Ar
thur
Those who have seen the condition
of the fortress believe that no more
discreditable surrender is recorded in
history. There were $4,000 able bodied
men capable of making Sortie, hum
dreds Of officers an weIl-nOurtshed. and
plenty of ammunition, the largest mag
azine being untouched and full to the
roof with all kinds of ammunition for
naval guns. There was ample food for
three months. even if 10 fresh supplies
could be received, and, besides, the wa
ters are teeming with fish. There was
an abundance of wine and medical
comforts, and large quantities of fuel
of all kinds.
The stories that the Red Cross
buildings were wrecked by the Japan
csc are admitted by reputable residents
to have been pure fabrications to ex-
cite sympathy All accounts agree in
condemning the majority of the Off
GERS, who feared the failure of COM
forts more than ammunition and agree
that no man ever held a responsible
command who less deserved the title
OF hero than General Stoessel.

YOU CAN INTEREST HIM.
Any Man over Fifty.

You can interest any man over 80 years
OF age in anything that will make him
feel better. because while he may not as
yet have any POSITIVE organic disease
he no longer feels the buoyancy and
Vigor of p nor the freedom from aches
and pains nc enjoyed in earlier years
and he very naturally examines with
interest any proposition looking ITO the
Improvement and preservation of his
health
He will notice among other things that
the stomach of fifty is a very different
one from the stomach he possessed at
twenty-five That greatest care must be
exercised as TO what is eaten and how
much OF it. and even with the best of
care there win be increasing digestive
weakness with advancing years
A proposition tO perfect or improve the
oiSestlon and assimilation of food Is one

These tablets cure stomach trouble be-
cause their use gives the stomach a
chance to rest and recuperate: one of
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets contains di-
gestive elements sufficient to digest 3 900

The plan Of dieting is simply another

As DR. Bennett says. the only reason
