USING DUMDUM BULLETS.

San Francisco, Jan. 16. - w. ID.
Hastlake, who had recently been in
the Japanese Red Cross service, ar
rived on the steamer Doric. He de-
clared that the Russians are using
dumdum bullets and that he had eX'
tracted a number of such missiles from
wounded Japanese. DR.. Eastlake ex'
pressed great admiration for the hos
pital work of the Japanese surgeons
and said that blood poisoning is very
rare, nearly all of the wounds being
treated antiseptically, that they heal
by first attention. DR.. Eastlake said
that four cas-, s of maltreatment OF
Japanese by Russians came under his
observation. In one case the eyes OF
a Japanese were gouged out before
his death. He declared that the Rus
sian prisoners said they had been tolC
they would be tortured if captured.
DIR. Eastlake was twice wounded
once by a spent bullet and the sec
ond time by wounded Russian
whom he was about to pick up. Thu
Russian stabbed him in the abdomen
with a bayonet. DR.. Eastlake is re

institutions and boards and reach an
understanding about appropriations
for improvements.
"As soon as the division Is made
shall urge the members with institu
lions in their counties to put in their
appropriation bills at once" said
Chairman Creech
For the purpose of getting right
down to facts, the ways and means
committees will send representatives
around to the various institutions to
ascertain the actual needs. Such
trips have become necessary. 1t is
the custom to ask for everything that
can be thought of and then compro-
mise. In this manner some of the in
stitutions get even more than they
hoped for. The legislature has long
since quit taking the estimates made
by the institution managers or their
representatives in the legislature.

There were various interruptions.
The nerves of all were on edge. The
members of the class kept their eyes

PROVES GREAT POWER
When Regular Medical Treatment
Failed, DR.. Williams Pink Pills
Cured Her Rheumatism.

Hundreds of people afflicted with rheu-
matism have spent years under the care
of excellent physicians i'll vain. Then
they have settled down to the conviction
that it is fastened on them for life. Mrs.
Dinsmore was not willing to join the
ranks Of the hopeless merely because her
doctor did not know how to help her.
Here is her story:
"Four years ago suffered greatly
with rheumatism in my hands and
knees. After / had been sitting while
my limbs seemed so heavy I could hardly
walk on the first attempt. So long as
kept moving I was all right, but just as
soon as stopped, something seemed to
settle in my knees and make them ache.
My hands were so bad couldn't touch
the palms of them OH fiat surface; they
were swollen and panied So"
"Did you call in physician?"
81 doctored steadily for over a year
then one doctor said: you have taken
medicine strong enough to kill almost
anything Still, it did not kill me nor
the rheumatism.
elbow, then, did you get rid of it?"
cat different times had read in vari-
GUS publications about DR.. Williams
wonderful Pink Pills for Pale People,
and finally decided to try them. I took
them steadily for four months in ac-
cordance with the directions. By that
time was completely cured"
"Have you been free from it ever
! since?"
"Since then have had but one slight
return of my trouble, and box or two Of
the same pills made me alright again. F"
Mrs. F. A. Dinsmore lives in hearty
enjoyment of her recovered health at
woburn, Mass, entirely freed from the
grave anxieties that rheumatism always
brings. When it appears i'll but a single
joint it shows that the blood is in faulty
state in the whole body. 1t may at any
moment break out elsewhere, and one OF
the dangers is that it may break out in
the heart and then the result must be
fatal. Tho only security is to keep the
blood all the time in a perfectly sound
condition.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills make healthy
blood. All other relief is superficial.
This is thorough. These pills are sold
by all druggists.

WOULDN'T BRAND BOY A FEtoN.
Judge Rebuked Mother Who invok-
ed Laws Vengeance for Theft.

'T don't approve of this proceed
ing at all. 1t is disgraceful, In my
opinion, to bring boy into court for
taking S. from his mothers bureau.
His father ought to discipline him
and if he still persists habitualiy,
then he is really criminal. but to
act as has been done here and brand
the boy as a felon is outrageous.
will suspend sentence in this case"
In these words Judge Ralston to-
day rebuked a woman who persisted
in asking that her boy be sent to
Jail for q petty theft from her.. The
boy had confessed the theft. He was
fearful, but the mother was unfor-
giving and insisted that the full PEN
atty of the law should be visited up
ON him.
He did not look like a bad boy, and
his mother acknowledged that he was
ordinarily a good boy, as boys go.
He was not addicted to crime, she
acknowledged, and this was his first
offense.
The Judge ordered him to be re-
leased and to go home with his
mother, cautioning him at the same
time to profit by the Feniency Of the
court to prove that it was deserved.
The mother and son departed, the
boy glad to have escaped prison and
the mother dissatisfied because the
Judge would not discipline him.

A little boy of eight years whose
parents did not feed him on the right
kind Of food, was always nervous and
suffered from a weak condition OF the
stomach and bowels. Finally he was

ing that his intestinal digestion was
very weak, put him on Grape-Nuts
twice a day.

pounds, and his whole system is In

on Grape-Nuts at an earlier period in
his life, and kept from the use OF
foods that he could not digest, he new

disease is caused by undigested food
decaying in the stomach and bowels,
causing irritation and making for the
growth of all kinds of microbes, set
ting up n diseased condition which is
the active cause of appendicitis, and
this is more marked with people who
do not properly digest white bread.

parts Of wheat and barley and by the
peculiar processes Of the cooking at
