Thereupon Hunter ordered a retire- ment to Welegei-geu, where he had left his own Convoy. A portion of the forces advanced and engaged the Boers to cover this retirement which was successfully executed. The Boers continued to shell the re- tiring troops, but showed no desire to press the attack further. Meanwhile the Boer trains steamed away northward blowing up the culveris as they went.

One of the most ‘deadly and most dread~ ed of modern diceases is Appendicitis. The people fear it, the doctors fear it, for it nearly always beffles the most ekill- ful physician. Appendicitis v.ills nine out of every ten persons it altacks. Its cavse is very obscure, but the bost doctors say it springs, inthe most casee, from Constipation. It follows then that by curing Constipa- Now, whenever there isa case of Dys- pepsia or Indigestion, there also is a case of Constipation. Dodd’s Dyspepsia Tablets cure Pyspep- sia and Indigestion. That has been proven in hundreds of thousaeds of cases. In order to complete the work thoroug)- ly, the proprietors of Dodd’s Dyspepsia Tablets enclose in every box of that remedy a quantity of small, brown tablets, that are guaranteed to cure the mos: obstinate cares of Constipation. The large tablets avtoathe stomach, which they tone and streagthen. The small brown tablets act on the bowels and the liver, stimulatiag tnem to perfect and reguiar action. Thus the food is promptly and thorough- digested ; the useful portion goes to enrich the blood, and by the action of the small tablete the system is thoroghly cleansed, the bowels carrying off all the waste matter that would otberwise lie in the stomach and bowels, to rot and cause disease. es oes ete ne ‘ VEGRIEREEEGROOEREORGEQECREEQOGEGECECROEE Rex [usect Destroyer Destroys aii form of ins? life.
