Of course, as long as he is in Mancauris the Japanese keeps his secret as closely as

1211 the grave, for his life probably depends on it. But having got cloar away, he likes to get rid of pigtail and dirty garb, and become once more a clean and decent Japanese.* Usually the transformation is effected in private, so that none but his intimates know; for at a lodging-house used by both nationalities nobody keeps count or notioss if A Chinaman goes in and a Japanese comer out. So it is rather curious work gatting, on the track of those men from Manchuria, and finding out anything about them.

It is no secret that hawkers go from village to village in Manchuria, selling button and tapes, aud doing other harm. less necessary business, even in regions infested by the Chungchuses, the Red- Beard Bandits. It is no secret that a man can join the bandits, raiding towns, stealing whole herds of cattle, cutting telegraph wires, and tearing up rails to baffle the pursuing forces. And it is well known how, in the last resort, if hotly pressed, the bandits can either make terms and share the loot with the Cossacks, or resume the role of peaceful peasants and appear in the fields working as innocently as any yokel that ever lived on a farm.

The peasantry do not as a rule betray them, for several reasons. First, from the fear of vengeance; secondly, becausa the Chungchuses rather follow the style of old Robin Hood in posing as friends of the poor (as a matter of polioy); and finally, because the Cossacks themselves are worse briganda than the Hung-hu-tzo. Soldier chiefly prey on the poor and helpless, leav- ing the influential people carefully alone.

Of the Japanese who have been in Manchuria in Chinese guise, some find their way back via Shanhaikwan and Tientsin, somo via Korea, and somma by! ateamer from Newchwang. There have been a dozen steamors leaving Newchwang since the ice broke up, and they took away over 15,000 Chinese, artisans, tradesmen; farmers, and so on, all anxious to get away from the war, with its dangers and troubles and its stoppage of business. Out of the 15.000 perhaps there might be five disguised Japanese. I do not know, and I merely

But it was a

queer introduction to a fellowoountryman in an outlandish place, eh? I tell you honestly I hadn't suspected him for one of un, nor he me. So you see how it is.'

It was impossible to extract any admis sion that this man had been a bandit. He had seen the Chungchuses, as everyone had who travelled in the country but he would not say he had been one of them. He said, however, that there was no real secret about Japanese being among them; it was obviously in the nature of things, and need not be denied.

The stories about the Chungchubes being in the pay of Japan, he said, were absurd; it was plain that there was no way to con- vey any pay to them, nor any means to guarantee that the pay would be carried. Any man who might become a member of a band might in time come to influence tho other members of that bant in any desired direction; that was all that could be done, and it could not amount to much. Still, it might be worked up into a force with some cohesion in a few months; and if they could show a few succosses every Chihaman în Manchuria would be ready to join the win. ning side. That sort of thing, however, counted for nothing, because what was wan- ted was body of men willing to harass tho Russians without waiting for them to be already losing. Of such men the numbers possible to raise were small comparatively. But they were good. With a little instruc tion they made distinctly butter soldiers in every way than the Russians, whother Cus Backs or others. My informant, while de. nying that he over witnessed an engage. ment between Chungchuses and Cossacks. stated that on several occasions the bandits had defeated a superior number of Rus gians. The latter usually allowed them. solvek to bo outwitted, and neglected the most ordinary precautions.

CONSTIPATION RAVAGES.

BILE BEANS A CERTAIN REMEDY.

THE OPINION OF

A GREAT PHYSICIAN.

Nov.

HAT celebrated physician, the late Sir Andrew Clark, expressed the firm opinion that constipation was the cause of no half of the ailments from which women

It fills the blood with

and girls suffer. unpurities, robs the system of energy, causes piles, headache, biliousness, skin eruptions and a host of other disorders. For those disorders, and for their root cause, Chas. Forde's Bile Beans for bilious- ness are unequalled.

Mrs S. Willums, of Longhope, Glouces

For fully rer, England, has proved this. twenty years,' she said to a reporter of the Dean Forest Mercury,' 'I was n martyr constipation. It brought on piles and biliousness, robbed me of appetite and energy, and made my life a burden to me. Many a weary day have I spent weighed down with a feeling of utter wretchedness and not caring whether I lived or died.

'Doctors? Yes, I tried several, but no amount of doctoring seemed capable of affording me the slightest relief; and by degrees I grew weaker and wearier: I also suffered periodically from crysipelas.

A few months ago I saw some striking testimony in a Birmingham paper to the success of Chas. Forde's Bile Beans in cases of piles and constipation, so I de- termined to give them a fair trial.

Soon after beginning the course I felt a charge. I became brightor, and as I persevered with the Beans, the distressing symptoms from which I had suffered so long began to leave me..

My appetite improved and my bowel were corrected and strengthened. I ceased to be troubled with constipation, and what I ate no longer made me bilious. The erysipelas, too, disappeared completely, and I have had no further trouble from that complaint.

Now, after a thorough course of the Beans I feel stronger, more vigorous, and in better health generally than I have felt for many years. Thanks alone to Chas. Forde's Bilo Beans life for me has been made once more worth living.'

Bile Beans cure indigestion, biliousness, autemia, female ailments, weakness, colds, chill, neuralgia, lumbago, rheumatism, in- fluenza, debility, palpitation, pains in the back, piles, constipation, sleeplessness, loss of appetite, congestion of the liver, Nov. 16 headache, flatulence, pimples, skin erup- tions, and a host of ailments having a com- mon origin in impurity of blood, a general congestion of the system and loss of vital force.

Bile Beans are purely vegetable in com. position, and are a certain cure for in- digestion, biliousness, constipation, piles, anemia, debility, female ailments, akin, druptione, all liver ailments, and all dis- orders arising from defective bile flow and assimilation, – They are obtainable from all chemists and medicine vendors.

THERAPION

MARK

This successful and highly popular remedy, as employed in the Continental Hospitals by Ricord, Kostan, Jobert, Velpeau, and others, combines all the desiderata to be sought in a medicine of the kind and surpasses everything hitherto employed. THERAPION NO. 1

in a remarkably short time, often a few days only, removes all discharges from the urinary organs, superseding injections, the use of which does irre parable harm by laying the foundation of stricture and other serious diseases.........

THERAPION No. 2

for impurity of the blood, scury, pimples, spots, blotches, pain and swelling of the joints, secon tary symptoms, gost, rheumatism, and all diseases for which it has been too much a fashion to em- ploy mercury, sarsaparilla, &c., to the destruction of sufferers toeth and ruin of health. This pre- paration puribes the whole system through the blood, and thoroughly eliminates every poisonous matter from the body

THERAPION No.3

for nervousexhaustion, impaired vitality, sleepless. ness, and all the distressing consequences of early. error, excess, residence in bot, unhealthy climates; c. It possesses surprising power in restoring strength and vigour to the debilitated.
