One of the carriers employed by the Government to carry the _ ‘mails through the rural district was held up by three masked' men, who overpowered him, and after beating him into insenslbility, robbed' him of a mail bag. which among other things contained a package of currency to the sum of 81,0005. The unforiunat carrier was found lying helpless in his rig by a passing farmer, whose arrival upon the scene probably saved the mall carri- er from a death of freezing. Al- though the carrier did not recognize any of the assailants and supposed them to be strangers in the district. it is thought that the robbery must have been committed by some one who knew_ of the sending of t he pack- age of currency. The carrier is un- der medical care, and it will be months before he is able to work again. , Was' (Iompleiely nm up' ' ' Wiih Severe Case oi Piles OWORN BTATEMEN1' FROM A MAN WHO HA8 UNBOUNDED CON- . - NFIDENCE IN DR skis... ......__.. . _CHA8E'8 OINTMENT.

That is the terrible phrt of war. That soldiers should suffer is war, but that women and children should be put to such misery, that is terrible. Ilut it was Roumanis.‘s choice. Roumaula play- ed with fire too long-and is now get- ting burned." “How soon do you expect to get to Bucharest?" “Do we want lllichnrost," he rcs- poml'ed immediately. “Every time we take charge of u city wc have to ic-ed the population. We are not bothered by that question-we are soldiers. Our task is to destroy the Roumunlan army and' that we are doing ns best we can." “When will the itoumuniuu or-my be destroyed?" I asked. Falkenhayn said: "Ra-in or snow, railroad accident or almost anything can destroy the best made plans. I have been in this war two and e half years and' can say the only certnin thing about it ls-\iu<-cr_- talnty. 1 arm only certain oi' one thing~and that is that wo will win." l<‘alkenhay1l’s clllci' of stall' when asked for comment on tht- operations about Crniova res'pond'cd'; "Here the Y r‘!"*.`.7 . 4 QWAN S Sold everywhere.
