Capt. John Orr, Pennington, Miss. has
been a most intense sufferer from facial
neuralgia for over twenty years. Hehas
had seventeen operations performed on
the nerves-that is, had them divided, cut
of close to the bone from which they
emerge. But this never did him any good;
the most excruciating pain continued
without the least interruption. He often
wished for death TO relieve him Of the in
tolerable pain. The best physicians failed
to relieve him. They finally advised him
to consult Drs. Hartman & Miller, at the
st. Charles Hotel, New Orleans, which
he did. They prescribed PKRuSA, and
in less than month wasentirely relieved
of the pain. Before consulting these doc
tors the least touch to any part of his face
or nose would cause the most fearful pain,
while now he can blow his nose and wipe
his face without the least fear of pain.
The captain is grateful beyond measure
for this unexpected and unhoped forresult.
Mrs. Elizabeth Kenner,o8 Laurel street,
New Orleans, has been one of the great
est sufferers from Neuralgia of the face
during the past year that we have ever
heard Of. From morning to night and
from night to morning, there was one
constant, racking, tearing, burning pain,
extending ngclear around her head and deep
down through every muscle, tooth and
bone in her face. No rest and no sleep.
All physicians failed to relieve her, as
well as all remedies. She was constantly
in the most agonizing despair. She called
on DIR. Hartman, who said the cause was
chronic catarrh. He prescribed PERUNA
for her and now every pain has left her.
She feels like another person and can eat
heartily and sleep soundly.

I, King o. Servia, wns born in 1854 In
1915 Milos Obrsnovich, a peasant, headed

Turk, and was acknowledged b. the Sultan
Prince OF Servia- Milan Is the descendant
Of this brave peasant, and the fourth OF the
dynasty. BE became prince BY the assas-
Eiuatiou Of bis uncle in 1858 There Is con-
siderable more excitement than quiet satis-
faction in being ruler Of one Of these bloody
little states in the Balkan peninsula. A
king or prince never knows what day his
head may not come of Milan was crowned
primes at Belgrade in 1872 The map In the
beginning of this letter shows the distribu-
ton OF territory for tho Balkan peninsula
by the treaty of Berlin. By that treaty
Servia became independent Of Turkey In
1878 Then Milan became king, and
was solemnly proclaimed such. Bel.
grade Is the capital Milan's queen is

too is closely in sympathy with Russia. Rt
once the news OF the Roumslian revolution
reached Servia the army Of that little king
dom moved toward tn, southern frontier.
1t Is 10000 strong. The pretsnse was that
the boundary of Servin must be protected
in case the adjoining Turkish provinces Of
Macedonia and Albania rose in revolt
King Milan said in such case he would be
forced to act with the insurgents or be de-
rosed. Certain it is that all Servia is wild
for war in some shape.
| Being himself Of peasant blood, not mnnY
removes, King Milan Is very popular
among his subjects You will observe that
the kings and princes of these half barbar-
ous little states are well made and hand
some fellows, looking TO be men of power
and presence. They are young. too, in the
flower Of their age, and cultivated and
ambitious to a man Nobody knows
what yet may happen. King Milan is
strongly built and swarthy. He is fine
linguist of free handed, frank nature.
In some respects he resembles the late
Victor Emanuel Of Italy, being passionate
ly fond Of hunting AMI averse to appearing
in public He likes to play cards and his
favorite reading is military works and
novels Beautiful Queen Natalis Is now

The estimated population OF Roumania is
somewhat less than $500, 900, though the
total number Of Roumanians is about
S,0o0000 They are scattered through the
neichboring states in large numbers
Bucharest is the capital, a shabbily built
town Of 25),000 In tins of war, Rou-
mania can muster an army OF 1o00 600.
In 1861 tho two provinces OF Wallachid
and Moldavia were united. The new state
was given the name Of Roumania. The
present ruler, whose portrait appears in
the illustration is King Karl or Carol L
He was torn in 1882 elected prince in 1866,
and crowned king in 1881. He is of German
descent His wife, the queen, was Princess
Elizabeth Won Nemvied
Roumania owes its present independent
position to its friendship with Russia.
When the war broka out between that
country and Turkey in 1877, Roumania
signed an agreement with the czar govern
ment, granting free passage to Russian
troops through Rdumanian territory. Then,
while Turkey had her hands iull, the
government assembly proclaimed the indie
pendence Of Roumania at Bucharest. The
Roumanian army went into the war on
the side OF Russia, and fell upon the Turk
tooth and nail They distinguished them
selves before Plevna. When in 1878 the
Berlin congress met to straighten things
out, it agreed to recognize the independence
of Roumania. So that the Kingdom of
Roumania too is creation Of the treaty Of
Berlin.

The prince is fine, manly looking fellow,
son Of Prince Alexander Of Battenberg.
He is brother of that Primes Henry Of Bat

daughter, Beatrics. The little Battenbergs
may yet make grea5 figure in Europe.
The esy ympathies Of Bulgaria are emphatically

spurs by fighting on the Russian side

at the famous siege of Plevna, and
crossed the Balkans with Gen. Gourko.

THE BALKAN PENINSULA AS IT rs NOW.
They parceled out the peninsula this way
and that Servia, Roumania and Bulgaria,
all ancient dominions OF the Turk, were
erected into provinces to themselves. Bull
garia was tributary to the Turk. Between
Bulgaria AMI Coustantinople the little prov
nce of Eastern Roumelia wa established 1t
was meant Tor a safeguard between Tur-
hey and Russia, sort OF neutral ground, as
it were. Eastern Roumelia at the same
time was a semi independent province.
The sultan appointed thu governor, though
tie little state was supposed to govern it
self. Its subjection to Turkey consisted
chiefly in its paying taxes to the ports, toll
erably stiff taxes, too Philippopolis is the
capital.
That was in 1878. All went smoothly as
far as outside knowledge went, till sud
denly, on tho 18th of this September, with
out word OF warning, the inhabitants OF
Philippopolis rose and proclaimed that they
no longer belonged to Turkey, but to Bull
garia. They sez,d tho Turkish governor
and officers and imprisoned them. Then
they put their own men in the places OF
these, and a provisional government was
formed. It and the Rounelian soldiers
| swore allegiance to Prince Alexander, OF
Bulgaria, on the spot.
| That was all there was of it.. A revoln-
tion that may shake the thrones Of Europe
before it is done with was accomplished
without drop of bloolshed.

Father, Mother, and Three sisters Dead.

Father, Mother, and Three Sisters Dend.
Mr.. David Claypool, formerly Sergeant-
alarms ofthe New Jersey Senate, and now
Notary Public at Cedarville, Cumberland
Co., N. j., makes the following startling
statement: "My father, mother, and three
sisters all died with consumption, and my
lungswere SO weak Iraised blood. Nobody
thought I could live. My work (ship-
smithing was very straining onme with my
weak constitution, and i was rapidly going
to the grave. While in this condition I
commenced using Mishler's Herb Bitters,
and il saved my life. Because it was SO
difficult to get it in this little place, and |
had improved 50 much, I stopped taking it
fer time, and the result is that | have
commenced going rapidly down hill again.
Somehow, Mishlers Herb Bitters gives
appetite and strengthensand builds ME up
as nothing else does, and must have
dozen bottles at once. Use this commu-
nication as you please, and If any one wants
to be convinced of its truth, let them write
me and will make affidavit to ii, for
owe my life to Mishler's Herb Bitters."
The secret of the almost invariahle reliei
and cure Of consumption, dysentery, diar-
rhea, dyspepsia, indigestion, kidney and
liver complaints, when Mishler's Herb
Bitters is used, is that il contains simple,
harmless, and yet powerful ingredients,
that act on the blood, kidneys, and liver,
and through them strengthens and inyigor-
ates the whole system. Purely vegetable
