A healthy liver secretes each day about two and a
half pounds OF bile, which contains great amount
Of waste material taken from the blood. When the
liver becomes torpid congested it fails to emin-
ate this vast amount of noxious substance which
therefore, remains to poison the blood, and be con
yeyed to every part of the system. What must be
the condition Of the blood when it is receiving and
retaining each day two and half pounds of poison

TURKEY,
The Ex.suItan,s suicide.

LONDON, June 6.-Constantinople journals
report that Abdul Aziz had several violent fits
OF madness after his deposition, particularly on
the evening before he committed suicide, and
the Standards special from Athens says that
the Tdrkish Minister there has received an
official telegram stating that Abdul Aziz COM
mitted suicide because he was maddened by
private treasure. Other specials to the Stan
dard represent that at Paris the story of the
Sultan's suicide meets with contemptuous in
credulity, and at Rome the journals generally
express the belief that Abdul Aziz was MUIR
dered.
The Paris despatch to the News says that the
French journals are singularly unanimous in
disbelieving the report that Azz committed
suicide, and point out many alleged discrep-
ancies in the official account. Although the
official kilograms announced that the late
Sultan would have splendid funeral, it was
subsequently admitted that he was buried by
night and his death kept secret from the
public for fear of disorder.

The Ex-SuItau Bonds
A telegram from Constantinople to the STAN
dard reports that Turkish bonds to the amount
OF 800 GOO Turkish pounds were found in the
treasury OF the late Sultan and handed to the
Minister of Finance. Bonds will not be put
into circulation.
