Greek and Turkish Regular Troops Have
n Fierce Engagement in Greece.

n Fierce Engagement In Greece.
Observation-Disclosures OF the Greek Army
In Thessaly-(By Cable).-Greeks and Tur-
kish troops have had their first battle on
1feek soil. The battle began at Nezeros,
lust within tho Greek frontier lines In Thes-
aly, and due south of Mount Olympus. TIE
lighting originated. according to the Greek
reports, in an attempt upon the part Of the
Turkish forces TO occupy an abandoned post
Of the Greeks.
The movement was opposed by the Greek
forces. whereupon The Turks opened fire and
a sharp engagement, lasting four hours, en-
sued. The Greeks eventually receded.
Their losses are not known.
Heavy firing betw cen the Turks and the
Greeks near Nezeros was resumed ut 5 o'clock
next morning. The Greeks, in the meanwhile.
had been reinforced with artillery, which
thew brought into play against the Turkish
posts at Kotroni. The latter were eventually
destroyed by dynamite. /,
It is reported that the Greeks coupled
three Turkish stations and that the Turks
retreated. The engagement extended TO the
Greek posts to the lett OF Nezeros, but it is
reported that the firing did not last long.
The Greeks finally captured the Turkish
positions from Nezeros TO Koutra, and the
Turks are in full retreat toward the interior,
where their forces are massing. The bat
teries at Mcnexa ceased firing at eleven p.
M, but there Is no of1cial news as yet OF the
capture OF that place, Several bands OF
Greeks have entered Macedonia

Velvet,

Velvet is manufactured by placing
in the loom rows of very short threads
of the material designed to be en-
ployed, whether cotton or silk. These
are then caught up by the cross
threads in the weaving and fastened in
such a way that the feecy ends pre-.
sent themselves all on one side of the
fabric. The manufacture of velvet is
so slow that for a hand weaver a yard
is considered a good days work. The
machine made velvet is of course
turned out much more Rapidly.

maternity?
Do you know the meaning Of what
is popularity called those "long-
ings," or cravings, which beset SO
many women during pregnancy? !
There is something lacking in the
mothers blood. Nature cries out
and will be satisfied at all hazards.
One woman wants SOU things,
another wants sweets, another
wants salt things, and SO IN.
The real need all the time Is to
enrich the blood SO as to supply
nourishment for another life, and
TO build up the entire g~enerative
system, SO that the birth may be
possible and successful.

thousands of women in this condition, there would be fewer disappointment
at birth, and they would not experience those annoying "longings"
In the following letter to Mrs. Pinkham, Mrs. Whitney demonstrates the
power of the Compound in such cases. She says:
"From the time 1 was sixteen years old till I was twentythree, 1 waR
troubled with weakness OF the kidneys and terrible pains when my monthl4
periods came or. 1 made up my mind to try Lydia E. Pnkhams Vegetable
Compound and was soon relieved. After 1 was married, the doctor said 1

the period of pregnancy, and 1 said then, i'll went my full time and the baby
lived to be three months old, I should send a letter to you. My baby is now
seven months old and is as healthy and hearty rs one could wish.
81 am SO thankful that l used your medicine, for it gave me the robust
health to transmit to my child. 1 cannot express my gratitude tt you; /

Mrs. Libbie Crumb, the respected wife OF
Mr.. Maxon Crumb, the farmer and hop
grower, who is so well known In the coun-
ties OF Oneida and Madison, sends US quite
m interesting statement from her home
near Bridge water, New York. On account
of the high standing OF Mrs. orumb. her
communication Is OF Importance, and may
be OF the greatest value to those who are or
may be similarly situated. She said.
"My name is Libbie Crumb. am sc years
old, and the wife Of Maxon Crumb, a farmer
and hop raiser OF Oneid1 County. For the
past twenty years I have been q sufferer with
disease of the stomach due to scrofula, aud I
had constant dizziness and headache, for the
greater part OF my time. I do not know
what brought on the scrofulous tendency. I
do not think it Is hereditary, as neither my
father nor mother had 1t. All l know is that
the physicians pronounced 1t s~crofula, and
several have attende me, all agreeing In
their diagnoses. but their treatment gave me
veiy little relief.
About one ear ago Twas in a worse CON
dition than I had ever reached, AID so I
abandoned my physicians and determined
to try DR.. Williams Pink Pills. l began at
once to experience marked relief from their
use. I only took Pink Pills three weeks, and
not so many Of them either. when my head
ache left me, and my stomach became per-
fectly comfortable, and l could rest well at
night, which l had not been able to do In
years before. Indeed, l was cured.
81 consider that Pink Pills are the only
medicine I ever took for scrofula that did
me any good, and l shall always recommend
them to my friends.
81 make this certificate hoping that it may
be seen by someone else suffering as I was,
and I declare the same to be true in every
particular" LSignedl LIBBIE CRUMB.
