A LIVELY ACTION.

Spearman’s Cayp, Feb. 7, 6 p. m.— | General Buller commenced his advance | forthe relief of Lady*mith on Monday. | The naval guns opened at 7 in the | morning and a feint ettack was madein front of our position, three battalions ad- ‘vanced toward the Brakfontein wi'h six batteries,

' Ateleven o’clock the Boers opened with ‘artillery fire and sent several she!ls among

the British infantry who retired an hour later.

Meanwhile a vigorous attack was made on the extreme right where the engineers ‘expeditiously constructed a position.

Several pieces of cinnov half hidden among the trees on Z var.’s Kop bombard- led heavily.

The British infantry advanced and the Boers were entirely surprised.

At 4 o’clock, a high hill, a cont'nua- tion of the Brakfont:2in, had been taken.

The cperations were excellently plan- ned.

The name of the hill t ken is **Krantz Kloof.”

‘Lhe bombardment of the Boer positicn was resumed this (yesterday) morning. The Boers worked a disappearing cannon from the high Doern Kloof rang3 on the right of the captured hill. But the Bri« tish shells exploded its mugazice and the

;

guo was putout of astios till late in the

day. Mau-ketry fire was intermittent until the afternoon, when the Boers made a

determined effort to retake the hill.

Piles when Dr. A. W. Chase’s Ointment is a surer, cheaper, easier way to cure.

Cruel, barbarous methods belong to the dark ages of the past. There wasatime when @ surgical operation was considered the only possible cure for piles. Notso now. Occa- sionally there is still found a physician whe adheres to this dangerousand expensivemethod, but to every one who still believes in using the knife, oy and nine recommend the use of Dr. Chase's Ointment.

Dr. C. M. Harlan, writing in The American Journal of Health, said : : ‘We know that ‘ Dr. Chase's Ointment meets all th2 requisitions of the highest stand-

ard of worth, that it will be held in om

esteem a it is —_ and we endorse it to every er. ;

By force of merit alone Dr, Chase's Oint- ment has won its way into this wide, wide world, until it has made the name of Dr. Chase familiar in almost a a. and won for venerable discoverer title of vines Greatest Physician.”
