Bottled Up!

1t certainly is disheartening to pa
tent to find that the treatment he is
given for disease is more disastrous
than the disease itself. Such is the
case, however, with the usual treat
ment given for diseases of the blood.
Notwithstanding the great progress
made in many branches of medicine,
the doctors have failed absolutely to
find a successful treatment for blood
poison, and the many diseases having
their origin in the blood. They give
but one kind of medicine, they know
but one treatment, and whether in
the form of powder, pill or liquid, the
Doctors prescription is always the
same-potash or mercury.
Too much cannot be said of the harm
full and disastrous effects of these drugs.
The doctors are unable to rid the sys-
tenn of the poison, and direct their
efforts toward covering up the synp-
toms from view. There is but one eff
feet to be obtained from potash and
mercury-they bottle up the poison
and dry it up in the system, but it
must be remembered that they dry up
the marrow in the bones at the same
time, gradually consuming the vital
ity. Those disfiguring copper-colored
splotches are but indications of worse
results to follow. No sooner has the
system taken on the full effects of this
powerful drug than that suppleness
and elasticity of the joints gives way
to stiffness, followed by the racking
pains of rheumatism. The form grad

The CREAM WAR
How II Was Finally Brought About
and BY Whom.
SIMPLE STATEMENT OF FACTS
The Armies, the Commanders, and
the Seat Of War.

The immediate cause Of the war be-
tween Greece and Turkey, according TO the
claims Of the porte is due Co the action of
the Greek irregulars in penetrating Mace
donna and attacking various minor Turk
ish posts, responsibility for which the
Greek government avows. The latter, on
the other hand, lays the onus on the Turks,
who advanced into Thessaly. This result
ed in n sharp conflict between bodies OF the
regular troops at tho town OF Nezeros,
which lies Immediately under the shadow
Of Mount Olympus, the tabled home Of
the greater gods of the ancient Greeks.
The Greeks, who must be considered the
aggressive party, say they sent troops to
the island OF Crete TO oppose the Turks be-
cause the Inter were massacring the
Christians. A further cause for the bel
ligerency Is their impotence because the
reforms imposed upon Turkey by the great
powers have not been put into execution.
But It is necessary to go back much
farther TO understand the primary cause
Of this great eastern crisis. Crete was the
last Of the Turkish oonquests in Europe,
having been captured from the Venetians
after desperate struggle. Like Ireland,
Crete was imperfectly conquered at the
beginning, and the fame of discord has
been kept alive in the island owing TO the
existence of a large minority differing in
creed from the bulk Of the population and
long maintained in a privileged position
by tho ruling power. A disturbing in6u-
ence was also exercised from without, for
the Greeks Of the mainland have always
fostered the revolutionary element among
their brethren.
Shortly after the Turkish oonquests
large number of the Greek Inhabitants,
through one cause or another-it may
have been compulsion, or possibly It was
fear and self interest-embraced the creed
Of Islam, and of course thus effectually
dissolved all ties Of blood, language and
tradition. Today the Mussulman Greek
Of Crete is to all intents and purposes q
Turk and is SO regarded by his Christian
kinsmen. Crete, however, played an i'm

Pir@us, the port c. -.S..cns, ana saIIeu
down the gulf OF Egina to the Kgean sea,
and then north to the port OF Bolos, also
known as Volo. This port is connected
with Larissa by rail, and few hours after
landing the troops were in Larissa, the
present headquarters of the Greek army at
the front. The Turkish city of Salonika
has been the gathering point of the Turk
ish forces Salonika is at the head Of the
gulf Of Salonika 90 miles northeast Of the
town of Elassona In Macedonia. Elassona
is the headquarters of the Turkish forces
in Macedonia. The Turkish troops have
reached this town and other points along
the Turkish military front by two routes.
A part of them have gone west by rail to
Verria from Salonika and then marched
south TO Elassona, a distance Of 45 miles.
For some weeks the Turks have had a
very considerable army posted all along
the frontier from Elassona to Janina, with
other forces on the gulf of Arta. The
Greeks have also spread part Of the
troops they concentrated at Larissa along
the frontier from Nezeros, south of Mount
Olympus, TO the western border of Thes-
sally. At GreyenA in Macedonia the Turks
have had an entire division, including in
fantry, cavalry and artillery, under the
command of Hakki Pasha. Bhe Greek in
surgents pushed northwArd nearly TO Grew
ena before they were beaten back.
The most OF Thessaly Is a vast plain
with ranges Of hills. In no other part Of
Greece could troops be so easily maneu-
vered over so large territory. Macedonia
and Albania, ON the Turkish side of the
border, on the contrary, are exceedingly
mountainous. AS compared with Thes-
sally, the Turks have in their frontier ter
ritory far greater number Of strategic
points that are not difficult to defend.
The main difficulty with all this territory
on both sides Of the border, from a mill
tary point of view, Is the entire lack Of
good roads. Many Of the roads affording
the only means Of transit are mere bride
paths, and all the roads are narrow and
In bad condition.
The powers are plainly in alliance with
Turkey In this crisis, but the consciences
and sympathy OF the people are largely in
favor Of Greece. This latter ally should
not be despised.

win the exception OF a rev ports which
arc held by the fleets Of the powers.
The inhabitants Of Crete, both Chris
tlans and Mussulmans, seem 20 approve OF
the annexation. and there Is reason 30 be-
lieve that even the porte itself would not
strenuously object TO 10. But Russia and
Germany have done all In their power TO
prevent It. The alternative offered Is =
measure Of autonomy. At the beginning
Of the year that would probably have beoD
accepted Now IL is regarded with suspi-
cion, as a mere ruse of the powers to
throw Crete back under unrestrained
Turkish rule.
The Turkish commander Is one Edham
Pasha. He saw service in the Turoo- Rus
sian war as colonel and brigade command
or, but he has had no experience In the
leadership Of a large army. Prince Con-
gtantine, the commander Of the Greek ar
my, has a military training which Is pure
ly that Of the academy and drill ground,
and there seems TO be no general under
him who has had different experience.
In numbers the Turkish army of advance
Is far larger than the Greek forces, and
there Is reason 10 expect that the latter
may get the worst Of it at the outset. The
Greeks, however, have the best reason to
look for efficient help from their large
body Of irregulars, which have been pour.
ing into Macedonia and Epirus. From this
source the tide Of uprising against Turk.
ish rule promises to swell into q great vol
ume. Other elements that favor the Greeks
are the facts that the fighting will be in
Hellenic territory, which the Greeks know
thoroughly, and the whole Of the nation lie
ON FIRE with passionate enthusiasm.
All that the great powers can do just
at present is TO look on and localize the
conflict as far as IL is possible. But the
issue Is not merely between Turkey and
Greece, nor the question merely the gov
eminent of Crete. A war between Turkey,
all Of whose traditions are despotism, and
Greece, all Of whose traditions arc liberty,
may easily involve before 1t be completed
all Europe in a war between absolutism
and democracy. It may result in an upris-
ing throughout Europe until every govern
ment east of Russia is revolutionized and
make liberalism dominant from the Medl-
terranean TO the Baltic.
The accompanying map gives good
general idea of the country in the neigh
borhood Of the Greek Turkish frontier
where the hostile armies confront one an
other. It is extended south to show the
geographical relations Of Athens and the
present region Of conflict. The frontier
extends from the Ioninn sea at the gulf Of
Arta, on the west, to the gulf Of Salonika,
near Mount Olympus, the tabled home of
the old Greek deities on the east.

Under this treatment, il is but a short
step from vigor and health to a pair
of crutches. With this wreck of the
system often comes falling of the hair
and eyebrows, loss of finger nails,
and decay of the bones-a condition
most horrible. This is no overdrawn
picture, for the world to-day is full of
these hobbling mercurial wrecks.
Contagious Blood Poison is the most
horrible of all diseases, and has been
appropriately called the curse of man
kind. Until the discovery of s. s. s.,
IL was incurable. II has always bat-
fled the doctors, and 1t is in this dis
ease that the evils of mercury and
potash are most common, because
these drugs are given in such large
doses in an effort to counteract the
poison. While they succeed in bottling
up the poison in the system, IL always
breaks forth again, attacking some
delicate organ, frequently the mouth
and throat, filling them with eating
sores. S. S. S. is the only known cure
for this terrible disease.
