portance of Victory ,
TOKIo-A Japanese officer of high
rank made the following statement
to the correspondent oC the Associat
ed Press :
The Japanese in attacking Kin
Chuu and Nansl1an hill had to fight
against great odds. Time Russians
wore In full command of the strategi ,
cal advantages afforded by nature and
these advantages were augmented by
the newest inventions for defenso.
The forts on Nan Shan hill were armed -
ed with heavy guns. The Japanese
had only field guns , heavy guns being -
lag unavailable on account of the dif
ficulties of transportation.
Our army deserves great credit for
having driven the Russians from this .
stronghold ; it was n. feat previousl : .
considered to have been impossible. 1
fear our losses have been heavy , but
wo have gained the strongest point
barring our way to the investment of I

Time fact that the up-to.date m1 t- 1

wonderful case than that of Mrs. Lucy
Nicolls of this place. For a long time
Mrs. Nicolls suffered with very se-
vero pains in the back and almost in-
3tantly these pains left her. She has
tried doctors and everything , but
nothing had helped her till she used
Dodd's Kidney PilIs. She says : :
"Dodd's Kidney Pills did me so
much good I can't tell , it was so 'Won-
derfu1. My back hurt me all the time.
I doctored and tried everything b\ -
did not feel any better. I thought illti
life was short on earth , but now I feel
like a. new person. I used one box of ,
Dodd's Kidney Pills and I do not eel \ :
the slightest ache or pain. I can turn
and twIst any way without feeling It
and I feel so proud of , It I cannot

hardly express my gratitude to Dodd.s
