RUSSIA'S TACTICS

It Now Appears That Czar's L Fighters Will Act On the Offensive. 0 EX. 3LVKAKOFF'S .MOVE llusian Steamers Anchored in Poition at Port Arthur and Ver Then Sunk. The Harbor is Thus Effectually Sealed, Save for a Small ST Channel. k ' London, March 15. A correspondent at New Chwang says that after the removal of the battleship Retviran, four Russian steamers, the Harbin, the Hailar, the Ninguta and the Sungarl, were anchored at the mouth of the entrance to Port Arthur in proper position and sunk, leaving only a small channel available, Vice Admiral Makaroff having previously ordered the whole fleet to remain outside with steam, economy in coal being necessary. This dispatch, which the correspondent says is "on Russian information," is, if true, new? of the first importance, confirming the idea that Vice Admiral Makaroff will adopt the offensive and make a desperate atBUSSIA'a MAMMOTH CRUISER BOSSIA. tempt to bring together Russia's scattered naval forces or endeavor to inflict damage upon the Japanese navy. The story must, however, be viewed cautiously, the only approach to confirmation from any other quarter being in a dispatch from a correspondent at Yin Kow, which merely says: "Vice Admiral Makaroff has issued orders to the effect that the saving of coal is unnecessary, but that the big gun ammunition in the forts must not be wasted. Evidently this ammuition is running short." There is no other news to hand on the subject. A Tokio correspondent sends an unconfirmed rumor to the effect that Japanese marines have landed and occupied Dalny. It may be remarked that the British newspapers all regard Vice Admiral Togo's report that he has laid mines at Port Arthur as a mere bluff, and they say that such a feat would be Impossible under fire. It is thought that if Vice Admiral Makaroff closed the channel it was in order to prevent the ingress of Japanese torpedo boat destroyers, as was done at Wei Ilai Wei during the Chino-Japanesa war. It is a subject of unceasing remark and conjecture that nothing has been heard of the Vladivostok squadron, and it is beginning to be believed that It Is really inside the harbor of Vladivostok. One Tokio correspondent cays that according to a dispatch from General San, the Russians are believed to be withdrawing from the northeast frontier of Korea and concentrating at Vladivostok. Another correspondent at Tokio throws a light upon Japan's financial intentions and eays it is estimated that Japan will be able to maintain a war for eighteen months without borrowing abroad. The policy is to retain the gold in Japan, ana it Is believed that it will not be necessary to spend abroad more than one-eighth of the cost of the war, this expenditure being chiefly on coal, cordite and stdel. The fact that Port Arthur is completely blockaded permits a great saving, because Japan will be able to charter vessels at peace rates. I Jap Patrol Dispersed. - St. Petersburg, March 15. General Eilinsky telegraphs as follows under yesterday's date: "On March 7 our patrol discovered four of the enemy's posts on the Chong Cheng Ang river and a troop of cavalry acting as couts near Patetchen, northwest of Anju. A Japanese cavalry patrol fell Into an ambuscade prepared by our patrol and was dispersed, losing one killed. The Japanese left behind them a quantity of guncotton and some sword3 and blankets.

HEAD SOLID SORE Awful Suffering of Baby and Sleepless (lights of Mother.

CURED BY CUliCURA Skin Fair as a Lily with no Scar to Recall Awful Sore Writes mother. ! " I herewith write out In fall the beginning and end of that terrible disease, eczema, which caused my babe untold suffering and myself many sleepless nights. My babe was born seemingly a fair, healthy child, but when she was three weeks old a swelling appeared on the back of her head, and in coarse of time broke. It did not heal but grew worse, and the sore spread from the size of a dime to that of a dollar. I used all kinds of remedies that I could think of, but nothing seemed to help ; in fact, it grew worse. Her hair fell out where the sore was, and I feared It would never grow again. It continued until my aged father came on a visit, and when he saw the baby he told me to get Cutlcura Soap and Ointment right away. " To please him I did so, and to my surprise by their use the sore began to heal over, the hair grew over it, and to-day she has a nice head of hair, her skin is as fair as a lily, and she has no scar left to recall that awful sore, and It is over eight months and no sign of its returning." Mrs. Wm. Rter, Elk River, Minn. ' Cure permanent." So writes Mrs. Ryer, Feb. 25, 1903"; six years later: Your letter of the 19th inst. received, asking in regard to the cure of my baby some six years ago. Well, the disease has never returned to her head which at that time was a solid sore on top and down the back. Once or twice since then a patch has come on her hand near 'the wrist, but it finally disappeared after proper treatment with Cuticura." 8oId throughout the world. Cnticurm Resolvent. SOe.

TABLE TALK OVER THE COFFEE. The talk that evening began with the fad of the " Vegetarians " and their beliefs. It soon developed that the beautiful Miss Schuyler thought herself a "Vegetarian." "But," said Dr. Smith, n what do you eat ? " " All kinds of vegetables and fruit," said she, "then I drink milk, have eggs for breakfast, besides at other meals I eat butter, pudding, cheese and eake, and tell every one they ought to do as I do, I feel so much better." The doctor looked astonished. "And you call that vegetarian ? My dear young woman don't you know that butter, eggs and milk are animal foods ? Then, too, it is a mistake to urge others to follow you. What is good for you may not be good for others. The Esquimo of the Arctic regions couldn't support life on a vegetable-diet. Some animal food is necessary to keep heat in his body. On the other hand, besides the individual peculiarities and th climate, the conditions under which each person lives, would make it a mistake for you to recommend to everybody to follow your example." wAt the same time," continued the dsctor, "I have come to the conclusion that f u ly one-half of the

chronic complaints which embitter life are due to stomach disorders which could just as well be avoided." "Now, Dr. Smith," interrupted Miss Schuyler, WI know you're going to tell us all just what to do and -that when our stomach begins to trouble us and we have dyspepsia or what not, we are all to march in line, one after the other, into your office and have our stomach pumped out. No thank you, I tried that when I had dyspepsia, heart palpitations and dizzy spells so bad I thought I'd go mad, and then when I struck the pump treatment I thought I'd go madder ! But fortunately just about that time I saw something in the paper which made me stop and think. I said, if hundreds of others can be cured by such simple treatment as taking Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery three times a day, I think I'll try. I did try, and in two months I was sound and well again without those horrid stomach pumps, and then best of all, I wrote to Dr. R. V. Pierce, at Buffalo, N. Y., and asked his advice in my case, and he told me how to care for myself, how to exercise, diet, etc., and that didn't cost me a cent. Then I bought his book, the ' Common Sense Medical Adviser,' and now I know just exactly how to live to be a hundred in the shade."

"I can t dispute your statement, for It is undoubtedly true," said the doctor. I have seen many cases in my practice of dyspepsia and other diseases of the stomach cured by that4 Discovery' of Dr. Pierce.

No man or wornanca? strong or feel happy who is suffering from indigestion, because when the stomach is diseased there's a diminution of the red corpuscles of the blood this is why one don't sleep well, is languid, nervous and irritable."

"Words cannot express what I suffered for three years from the effects of a torpid liver," writes Jas. E. Hawkins, Esq., President Order of Golden Circle, No. 41, of America, Box 1038, St. Louis, Mo. "Had I but known of your Golden Medical Discovery ' sooner what misery I might have been spared. I was bilious, tongue was coated, appetite poor, and I had frequent distressing pains in the side and under shoulder-blades, but within a week after I commenced Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery there was a marked change for the better, so I kept on using it, three times a day, for over a month, with an occasional dose of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets to regulate the bowels, and the results were all and more than I could wish. My appe. tite is splendid I feel ten years younger, and am entirely free from pain of any kind. Your 'Golden Medical Discovery is certainly all that its name implies, and I gratefully endorse it" Mrs. Alice Everly, of Creedville, Ohio, says : "Sometime ago I wrote you in regard my case, asking your advice, also what I needed in the medicine line. The advice came promptly and after following your directions I find myself entirely relieved of any distressing symptoms of my old troubles, and feel I am entirely cured. I had liver complaint and indigestion of the bowels. Took eight bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, also three vials of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. Your remedies have proven very satisfactory in my case, and I am delighted to be my old self once more. I thank you for your good and valuable advice, which was so promptly given. My husband is taking the' Golden Medical Discovery,' and also feels that it is doing him good. One thing we are very positive of, is that it will give a wholesome appetite when all else fails."
