LEVANT FULL
OF WRETCHED
WAR VICTIMS
Doleful Beyond Description
Is Condition of Constanti
nople Refugees.
AMERICANS GIVE AID
CONSTANTINOPLE, July 15. (By
Mail) —With Constantlcople so filled be
yond its capacity with thousands of un
derfed, ill clothed, destitute refugees
that many of them have no other place
to lie down at night than dirty alley
gutters, the constant stream of homeless
families that steadily makes Its way for
the metropolis is overflowing into the
adjacent territory.
They have been coming in apparently
unending procession for months. With
the renewed military activity of the
Greeks and the Turkish Nationalists their
number has been increased by added
thousands who have fled from villages
near the lines to esepae Turkish exc-es.
At Ismidt, about twenty-five miles across
the Bosporus, on the peninsula to which
it has given its name, a little band of
American relief workers, of which a Mis
souri girl Is a member, are being worked
night and day to care for approximately
twenty thousand refugees. About two
thirds of this number are Greeks, the
rest Armenians, with children forming
a large fraction of both groups.
XKRVOrS DRAIN
IS HEAVY.
The drain on the energies of the work- '
ers of the Near East Relief Is severe, so
severe that Miss Sabra C. Bradley, a ,
niece of Judge David 11. Harris, 823
Court street, Fulton, Mo., in all of her <
two years service In the war regions of !
the Levant declares that she has never j
experienced such a situation. And she
has served with the relief organizations j
In the districts of Asia Minor that border I
on the Black Sea, where the Near East j
Relief has found its most difficult prob- j
lems.
Proper shelter and bousing, of course. ,
Is out of the question. Not only are
present buildings lacking to care for
such a vast army of refugees, but funds j
and materials are not available for the j
constructs nos new ones.
Just beyond Ismidt are the hunting
lodge and stables of a former Sultan.
Abdul Azziz. They are more than half
a century old and in sad Lick of repair,
but to the hundreds of Greeks and Ar
menians gathered in them, they repre
sent greater luxury than they ever did
to the comfort loving Sultan and his gay I
courtiers, who sported there in the gold
en days of the Turkish Empire.
FOOD SCARCE
AS SHEI.TER.
Food is as scarce as shelter. Miss
Bradley tells of children who walk daily j
Into Ismidt and the adjoining town of !
Derlndje for the allowance of milk that I
the relief organization supplies them. In
more fortunate lands fond parents would I
not trust many of these tots on legs
Judged to have not yet grown strong
enough to support their tiny bodies.
Every doy, according to the Missouri
girl, there comes an appeal from each
of the countless villages nearby, appeals
for food from famished mouths, or cloth
ing to protect almost naked bodies from
the bitter weather. Rags, so tattered
that they are little more than shreds,
dirty and ill smelling, form the only
garments that most of the refugees
possess.
It is the rainy season and the roads
are Httle better than big pools of mud
md nauseating slime. Conditions in
side wretched hovels, of necessity called
■wines, are not much better. During the '
?arly activities of the allies against the
Turkish Nationalists, when the Nation- j
ilist movement was just beginning, the i
Peninsula of Ismidt suffered severely
from subsequent bombardment and few
boildings remain intact. Through huge
holes gaping in the wails and roofs the
water flows In.
UOO FAMILIES
IN MISERY.
These conditions are best Illustrated
by that of the village of Rahmieh Keuy.
it the head of the peninsula, described
by one of Miss Bradley’s co-workers.
Here 1.500 families exist in the utmost
misery. I'ndernourished snd worn by I
undiminlshing hardship, they are easy |
prey to innumerable diseases that flour- I
ish under such conditions. Demands
upon physicians of the Near East Relief ;
ind upon the store of medicines, accord- j
trig to this worker, can hardly be tilled.
F*lm time to time, all too Infrequent- j
ly from the necessity, old clothes sent !
out from the United .States reach the re- j
lief unit in the district.
“We are almost trampled to death by I
the rush of half-naked wretches that
dash for us when we distribute these
clothes,” Miss Mradley declares. “To
those that w are able to clothe the gar
ments are better than medicine. To one
village where we took a shipment for
distribution we Included in, the bundle
some children’s clothes. We were met
by the usual rush of refugees and tne
clothes disappeared rapidly. At last only
the baby clothes were left. Upon inves
tigation we found that not a single baby
among the relatively large number that
we had found there previously remained.
Th*y had ail died from exposure and
lack of proper care.”

A CAUSE or
WOMEN'S ILLS
WOMEN OFTEN THINK THEY HAVE
HEART TROUBLE. INDIGESTION. NER
VOUS PROSTRATION. ETC.. WHEN ITS
SIMPLY IRON STARVATION OF THE
BLOOD.
Many women believe they are weak and
nervous as a result of ape. worry and
overwork; they think that their disturbed
digestion, headaches, heart palpitation,
shortness of breath, pains across the
hack, etc., are due to some serious di
sease instead of the real cause—iron star
vation o! the blood. This is proven by
the fact that when many of these same
women take organic iron for awhile all
their alarming symptoms quickly disap
pear and they become strong, robust and
healthy. Iron is absolutely necessary to
enable your blood to change food iuto liv
ing cells and tissue. Without it noth
ing you eat does you the proper amount
of good—you do not get the strength out
of it.
If you are not strong and well do not
wait until you go all to pieces and col
lapse in a state of nervous prostration,
but take some organic iron—Nuxated
Iron—at once. But be sure it's organic
iron and not metallic iron which people
usually take and which is made merely
by the action of strong acids on suia’l
pieces of iron. Organic Ni'XATKIt IKwN
is like the iron in your blood and like
the iron in spinach. lentils and apples
tliii it often increases the bodily and men
tal vigor of weak, wornont women in two
weeks' time.
Beware of substitutes look for the
word "Nuxated'’ on every package and
the letters V I on every tablet. Your
money will be refunded by the manufac
turers if yon do not obtain perfectly sat
isfactory results. At all druggists.—Ad
