The Turks, with the usual success in
this direction, have again bejuggled
the powers. While ostensibly COM
plying with their demands and appar-
emily supporting the khedive, they
PLAYED into the hands of Arab Bey I'M
til matters were brought to such a
crisis that England and France had to
menace Egypt with their fees. The
threat was only threat, however, and,
as they were either afraid or unable to
resort to force, Turkey seizes the bull
by the horns, declines the conference
proposed by England and France and
accepted by the powers, and notifies all
concerned that her own commissioners
are on the road to Alexandria and will
be quite able to settle affairs satisfac-
torily. The situation is n curious one.
England and France don't want Tur-
key to settle affairs, for if the Turks
once get into Egypt, how are they to
be got out again? England and France
cannot forcibly interfere without viola
ting their treaties with Turkey, A con-
ference does not offer very flattering
prospects of solution for long time to
come, when the ability of Turkey to
urocrastinate conferences ia considered.
1t looks very much az if France and
England were caught in Il position
where they can neither back out nor
go ahead. The advice of one of the
sultans secretaries that if England
were wise she would, owing to her al
tered position among the nations, take
Holland as her model in all interna-
tional concerns, may be impudent, but
( is TO the point.

There IL II Ouble In store

For those who neglect to rectify irregularities
of the stomach, liver and bowels which they
fooshly imagine will come right of themselves. u
OF this silly error such persons are usually disa-
bused by the development of some serious chronic
malady, traceable to what they were pleased to
consider trihing disorder of the above named as
sociate organs. Such elimination is easily
avoided. A course of Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ter. invariably has the effect of renewing the Sc
cretive action Of torpid liver, restoring healthy
digestion and as assimilation, and rendering the
habit OF body perfectly regular. The activity OF
these al-important functions being restored, and
the entire system toned and regulated by this in
comparable corrective and invigorant, no danger
TO the general health is to be apprshended from
causes which, if not ersdcsted in time will as
suredy undermine it,
