HMD SEEDS
BADLY HEEDED
Turkish Peasants More to te
Pitied Than Armenians,
Says Sabaheddine.
Claims That Revolutions Which Have
Torn the Country for Many Years
Have Been Organized By
Agents of Powers for
Their Own Ends.
Parts. Prince Sabaheddine, a
nephew of the sultan of Turkey and
chief of the young Turk party, has ad
dressed a letter on the subject of the
regeneration of Turkey to Senator
Pierre Berthelot, who recently ap
pealed to President Roosevelt in be
half of the Armenians. The letter
complains that the revolutions, which
have torn the country for many years,
have been organized by the official
agents of certain powers for their own
ends and points out that while much
sympathy has been given the Arme
nians, the Turkish peasants are more
to be pitied. The agrlculturlKts, the
prince says, are all forced to serve In
the army, and the women are loft to
raise enough to pay the exorbitant
taxes. Intelligent and educated Turks
who are trying to gain reforms are ar
bitrarily arrested, tortured, baninhed
and even murdered by Irregular tri
bunals. This persecution, however,
has only strengthened the movement,
The reforms Imposed by Europe on
Turkey, the prince says, have accen
tuated the troubles. The Interests o
the Armenians and Turks are identi
cal. The Kurds being Mussulmans,
but not Turks, ravage both Armenians
and Turks indiscriminately. It would
be a great gain, he says, If the Kurds,
who are the finest race, could be at
tached to the soil, as their ferocity la
the direct result of their present so
cial condition.
The great and Imperative reform,
Prince Sabaheddine continues, Is ad
mlnlstrative decentralization In the
empire which would permit the in
dustrious inhabitants to exercise ef
fective control over the management
of the local affairs and take the nec
essary measures to maintain perma
nent order and peace.
If Europe and America decided to
Intervene, the letter says In conclu
sion, they must In justice intervene
In favor of all the victims of the pres
ent regime; besides which Turkey be
ing the great link between eastern
and western civilizations by reform
ing and bringing her into line with
modern ideas. It would efface the an
tagonism of the two civilizations.
WOLVES AFTER THEM.
Two Wisconsin Men Have Narrow
Escape From Being Devoured.
Loyal, Wis. Hurry Riddel and
James Cook, prominent citizens of
Jackson county, Wisconsin, had a nar
row escape from being devoured by
wolves. They had been out all day
hunting with a number of other men
and, becoming separated at dark from
the main party, lost their way. Th y
built a .fire to protect themselves. No
sooner had they done so than the dis
mal sound of wolves was heard In the
distance. Placing their backs to a
large rock, the men prepared to fight
for their lives. In ten minutes the
forest seemed alive with wolves, and
the two men began a fierce battle.
After they had exhausted their am
munition they fought the animals with
firebrands. The remainder of the
party had gone In search of the miss
lng men and appeared on the scene
Just In time to save them. Fifteen of
the wolves were killed by the larger
party before they dispersed.

FACTS IN NATURE.
Vot Only Se We Get Inspiration
Nature, Bat Health ee Well.
For people who are run-down and nerv
ous, wbo suffer from Indigestion or dys
pepsia, headache, biliousness, or torpid
liver, coated tongue with bitter taste In
the morning and poor appetite, It be
comes necessary to turn to tome tonic or
trenathener which will aslat Nature
and help them to get on their feet and
fmt the body Into Its proper condition. It
becoming more ana more apparent that
Nature's most valuable health - giving
agents are to be found In forest plants
and roots.
Nearly forty years ago, Dr. R.V. Pierce,
now consulting physician to the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo,
N. Y., discovered that by scientifically
extracting and combining certain medici
nal principles from native roots, taken
from our American forests, he could pro
duce a medicine which was marvellously
efficient In curing cases of blood disorder
and liver and stomach trouble as well a
many othnr chronic, or lingering ail
ments. This concentrated eitract of
Nature's vitality he named "Golden Med
ical Discovery,' It purities the blood by
Euttlng the stomach and liver into
ealthy condition, thereby helping the
digestion and assimilation of food which
feeds the blood. Thereby it cures weak
stomach, Indigestion, torpid liver, or bil
iousness, and kindred derangements.
If you have coated tongue, with bitter
or bad taste in the morning, frequent
headaches, feel weak, easily tired, stitches
or pain in side, back gives out easily and
aches, belching of gas, constipation, or
Irregular bowels, feal flashes of heat al
ternating with chilly sensations or kin
dred symptoms, they point to derange
ment of your stomach, liver and kidneys,
which the "Golden Medical Discovery
will correct more speedily and perma
nently than any other known agent. Con
tains no alcohol or habit-forming drugs.
All Its Ingredients printed In plain Eng
lish on wrapper.
The sole motive for substitution Is to
permit the dealer to make a little more
profit. He gains; you lose. Accept no sub
stitute for "Golden Medical Discovery."
Constipation causes and aggravates
many serious diseases. It Is thoroughly
cured by Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.

Not Much to Boast About.
"I can't see," said Mrs. Nurltch,
"why Mrs. Dalllngton should put It on

over in the Mayflower. I've been
reading about It, and as far as I've
been able to find out it was a little
bit of a Loat that didn't have elec
tric lights or any other conveniences
worth mentioning, and my husband
sayg he doesn't suppose the whole
crowd of Pilgrims that came over on

to buy a box at a grand opera per

Beginnings of Great Writers.
Very few writers, even those who
have genius, have anything to say
when they begin to write. At first
they write for the love of writing, and
only when they are fatally committed
to the trade do they discover whether
or not they have anything to say. That
Is the great risk of all arts. You must
learn to paint before you can be sure
that you can paint. You must learn
to write before you can be sure that
you can write.
