There is M case of Indigestion. no
matter how irritable or how obstinate
that will not be speedily relieved by
the use of Kodol. The main factor in
curing the stomach of any disorder is
rest. and the only way to get rest is
to actually digest the food for the
stomach itself. Kodol will do it. It
is scientific preparation of vegetable
acids containing the very same juices
found in healthy stomach. It con-
forms to the Pure rood and Durgs
Law. Sold by Lamborn Drug Co.

WALL STREET SPECTATORS.
Informed That the President Has Not
Changed HE Views.

New York-Wall street has for
many days made much of a suppo-
sition that the attitude of the Wash.
ington administration towards COM
binations of capital was to undergo a
revision. Visits to the White House
OF capitalists, active and conspicuous
in the financial world, have given rise
to these c%onjectures Of a treaty. There
is rather a notable concurrence in the
substance Of several recent news dis
patches from Washington on this sub.
ject. which printed the information
from first.hand sources. and which
rather belied the assumption Of a
change In the administrations atti.

AMAZING REVELATIONS
GEN. kUROPATkiN'S HISTORY
HAS BECOME ACCESSIBLE.
DISCRIMINATION, Incapacity and DISC.
bedience Charged, and Russia
Was Not United, He says.

st. Petersburg, Russia.-Gen. Kuro-
pa;kin's history of the Russo.Japanese
war, which was conflscated by the
Russian government, has at last be-
accessible, despite the most ex-
IRENE precautions to prevent this
calling official Indictment from reach
ing the public. The work is remark.
able for its historic value as the clos
ing chapter Of the war from the pen
Of the commander-in-chief, and for the
Lierciless criticism Of the men and
measures which, in ~Kuropatkin's es-
innate, swept Russia and its army to
defeat.
Most Amazing Revelations.
The voluminous general orders, sta
~tistics, reports and other documentary
matter, with the conclusions" con.
stitute most amazing revelations Of
disorganization and incapacity. and
even of disobedience of specific and
urgent orders by certain general Off
GERS entrusted with high commands
in the field, notably Gen. Kaulbars,
against whom a formidable indict.
ment is framed, saddling upon him
entire responsibility for the defeat at
Mukden.
Why Russia Was Baked.
K~urOpatkin's reasons for the failure
OF the war are based chiefly on a com
parison OF the warlike spirit of the
Japanese, their preparedness and
valor, which he says, had never been
seen In any previous war, and their
ability to maintain the numerical su
periority necessary to assume the of
iensive with the disadvantages of Rus
