" Dkah Mns. Ti.s-kiiau i Four years ago I was nearly dead with Inflam

to me. I had used medicines Hid washes internally and externally until I
made up my mind that there was no relief for me. Calling at the home of a
friend, I noticed a bottle ot Lydln, 12. l'lnlclinm's Vegetable Compound.
My friend endorsed It highly and I decided to give it a trial to see if it would
kelp me. It took patience and perseverance for I was in bad condition, and I
used IiVdlu 10. l'lnkliiun'a Vcgetnblo Compound for nearly five montha

A JAPAN tSE HERO.
i , IM ;. ,, ,, ,l, ,ni, n... , ,
All Japan has been ringing with the
fame ot Takeo Illrose, the first great
naval hero of the Japanese-Russian
war, who was killed In Admiral Togo's
second attempt to block up Port Ar
thur. Illrose was leader of the vol
nnteers who set out to sink tbelr ships
and, if necessary, themselves, in the
mouth of the harbor. lie wna killed
by a projectile from a Russian quick-
firing gun while seeking to save tho
life of his friend and subordinate, Pet
ty Officer Suglno. Tbe New York
World tells of other deeds of courage
performed by Illroee.
He first proved his bravery In the
war with China. After Uiat war Lieut
Ulrose, who spoke Russian and French
well, was sent as naval attache to the
Japanese legaUon at St Petersburg,
lie came Into prominence- there through
an Incident which occurred at a ban
qnet. A Russian officer declared that
tbo Japaneso, so small of stature, could
not as Individuals, hold then- own in
any war. Hlrose smilingly defied any
three Russians to overcome him at
wrestling. Roars of laughter greeted
Uie challenge, for In those days Japa
neso Jlu-Jttsu was not described In
every newspaper.
At last for the fun of It, the Rus
elan officer sent for three large and
sturdy soldiers. The little Japanese
threw the Russians, one after another.
Illrose remained In St Petersburg
three years. The daughter of a Rus
sian naval officer fell In love with the
gallant young Japanese. Her father,
who greatly admired Hlrose, let It be
known to him that bo would not be
unwelcomo as tho young girl's suitor.
Ulroso, who also cared for Uie girl,
struggled with his affection for three
days.
Then he wrote to her father, and
pointed to tho inevitable war between
Russia and Japan. He said: "When
my country calls me to duty I shall
have to turn to account all tbe valua
ble professional hints received from
your kind lips and so help to do mortal
hurt to your country's navy. Thus 111
must patriotic duty make me repay
all 70ur kldness. With this In my mind
and in my heart, how can I presume
to sue for your daughter's hand, know
ing Uiat after the outbreak of the most
likely of wars Uie hand ot fate might
destroy the the happiness ot your
daughter in tbe most ruthless ot wnys,
should I have been so happy as to have
won her hand."
Hlrose in his poetic temperament as
well as In his dauntless spirit truly
represented the old warrior class of
Japan, the Samurai.
An Optimist.
