HED HIS RUPTURE
I was badly ruptured while lifting a
trunk several years ago. Doctors said
my only hope of cure was an opera
tion. Trusses did me no good. Fin
ally I got hold of something that
quickly and completely cured me.
Years have passed and the rupture
has never returned, although I am
doing hard work ,as a carpenter.
There was no operation, no lost time,
no trouble. I have nothing to sell, ;
but will give full Information about '
how you may find a complete cure
without operation, if you write to me, 1

DEAD IN HAMBURG
Petrograd, Jan. 27. (Correspond
ence of The Associated Press) How a
Russian regiment entrenched on the
Kawka repulsed thirteen consecutive
attacks In a single night, is told In
recent dispatches from the front.
"The enemy came on in close col
umns, but were mowed down to a
man." says one account. "After the
tenth attack had been thus stopped i
the bodies were piled up so high that
the Kusslan riflemen were unable to
shoot.
"Men' were sent out to heap hastily
ail the bodies so as to form embrasures
for machine guns, and the next three
attacks were repulsed from behind the
shelter of the enemy's own bodies. All
the Russ'an ottieers expressed great
admiration for the courage and perti
nacity of the enemy." '

been making strenuous endeavors tp

considered sufficiently forcible to
stimulate the oriental Imagination, so
the administration hit upon the Idea
