The signing OF the treaty of peace be-
tween the Car and the Sultan places Russia In
very advantageous position which, however,
is not free from risk. SO far as Turkey herself
is concerned the Car had the power

Even II he had seized Constantinople, de-
throncd the Sultan. driven the Mohammedans
across the BosphOrus. ana annexed all
Turkey in Europe to his own dOmnions,
Turkey could not have prevented the exc
cution Of his schemes But other pow
crs than the two belligeronts had in
tercsts which they wcre prepared to de-
fcnd and Russia had 10 give heed to their re-
monstranccs. The Car has not laid hands on
Constantinople; he has not adhered to his
original demand for the Turkish feet he
has reccdcd from the project Of cxpclling the
Turks from the new principally OF Bulgaria;
aud he has abandoned the claim on the Egyptian
and Bulgarian tributes Should the conference
OF the European powers be held, Russia will en-
ter 1t not only as II conlucror. but as tho bearer
Of the treaty of peace signed by the conquered.
She will insist that the powers shall discuss only

Miserableness.

The most wonderful and marvellous
success, in cases where persons are sick
or pinlng away from a condition Of
miserabfeness, that no one knows what
ails them, profitable patients for doc
tors, is obtained by the use of Hop Bit
ters. They begin to cure from the first
dose and keep it up until perfect health
and strength is restored. Whoever Is
afflicted in this way need not suffer,
when they can get Hop Bitters. See
"Truths" and Proverbs" in another
column.
