GETTING THROUGH JAP LINES.
Chinese Spy Carried Message from
One Russian General to Another.

Chinese honesty is proverbial, but
would seem to have it's exceptions.
Rev. John II. X. De Forest of Auburn
dale, Mass, for 80 years resident in
Japan and high in the confidence of
Japanese statesmen and officials, told
Of an episode of which he had per-
sonal knowledge while with the army
of KuroN in Manchuria:
Some of the spies used by both
sides during the war were Chinese, -
he said. Complications not infre.
quently resulted.
"Kuropatkin one day had a partic-
ularly important message to send to
Gen. Stoessel. TO get through the
Japanese lines seemed almost out of
the question, but the Russian COM
mander went to a Chinese famous for
his skill and intrepidity. The old fell
low didn't want to risk it, but Kuro-
patliin cajoled him to do it, giving him
$500 and promising him $500 when he
returned.
when he reached the vicinity of
the Japanese lines, with an intention

the start, he went straight to Kuroki,
insisting that his business was very
pressing.
He explained in full to Kuroki that
the Russian general had given him a
task which he could not perform be-
cause Of the admirable disposition of
the Japanese forces, that therefore he
had dons the next best thing and come
straight to the illustrious leader Of
the triumphant Japanese.
"Kuroki read the dispatch, gave 1t
back to him, babe him go on to Stoes-
sci with 1t and return with the answer

Real ANTIQUARIAN Fare.

The news from st. Petersburg that
some Russian scientists have been
making a meal off the flesh of a 100,-
900 year old mammoth recalls re-
markable dinner given by Brussels
antiquary named Goebel'
"At that dinner" said one of the
guests, 81 ate apples that ripened
more than 1900 years ago; bread
made from wheat grown before the
children of Israel passed through the
Red Sea, and spread with butter that
was made when Elizabeth was queen
of England, and | washed down the
repast with wine that was old when
Columbus was playing; barefoot with
the boys Of Genoa"
The apples which formed part of
the dessert were grown before Pom
peii was overwhelmed; in fact, they
were rescued from its ruins. The
wine was recovered from an old vault
in the city of Corinth, and the wheat
was found in a chamber in one of
the Pyramids. 1t is interesting To
know that this antiquarian fare was
all excellent, the fruit particularly be-
ing described as of as fine flavor as

CROPS IN CENTRAL
CANADA.

Writing from Regina. Saskatcbe.
wan. Central Canada, Mr.. A. Kalten-
Drummer writes:-
Some years ago took up home
stead for myself, and also one for my
son. The half section which we own
adjoins the Moose Jaw Creek; Is a
low, level and heavy land. We put
in 70 acres Of wheat in stubble which
went 20 bushels to the acre, and 80
acres of summer fallow, which went
20 bushels to the acre. All the wheat
we harvested this year is No. Hard.
That means the best wheat that can
be raised on the earth. We did not
sell any wheat yet, as we intend to
keep one part for our own seed, and
sell the other part to people who want
first class seed, for there is no doubt
IL you SOW good wheat you will har-
vest good wheat. We also threshed
5000 bushels Of first class oats out Of
$50 acres. 80 acres has been fall
blowing, which yielded 80 bushels
per acre, and so acres stubble, which
went so bushels to the acre These

raised. We have shipped three car
loads OF them, and got SO cents per
bushel clear. All our grain was cut
in the last week of the month of
August before any frost could touch it.
Notwithstanding the fact that we
have had late spring, and that the
weather conditions this year were
very adverse and unfavorable, we will
make more money out of our crop
this year than last.
For myself l feel compelled to say
that Western Canada crops cannot be
checked. even by unusual conditions"

LYDIA E. PINKHAM

Nature and woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman'S ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old-fashioned days OF
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years In
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
field Lydia e. Pinkhafh more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world q remedy for their Pc
culiar ills, more potent and effica-
cious than any combination of drugs.
Lydia Il. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as tho
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 NC. ST.,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
complete restoration to health
means SO much to me that for the sake
of other suffering women 1 am willing
to make my troubles public
"For twelve years L had been suffer-
lug with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time l had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what l suffered, and at times
could hardly walk. About two years
ago wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
l followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia i. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinliham's advice re-
stored health and strength. 1t is
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women"
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Mutf,
