The Bladgeons of oonstantinople.

These men of Constantinople were not armed in the common sense of the word. Some of them had revolvers, and the most of them had knives. But they seldom used either; for awkward questions might be raised if the police were called to account for failing to arrest armed civilians on the streets. Carrying ax-helves, pick-ax handles, heavy clubs like baseball bats, jagged fragments of broken seantling; carry ing anything that eau crush the skull of man, this horrible rabble flooded the streets of all Christian quarters of the city like an aIl-desolating tidal wave, silent, but irresistible. Their silence by day was almost as terrible Rs their howls by night. They would be seen going along the street, when they would meet an Armenian who had ventured to reach his home. With out a word they would break in his skull and go on their way entirely un moved, and hardly hauing spoken a loud word. If resistance was offered they had only to say: 1.-The Giaours resist!" and horde of their fellows would come running from all diree- tions to destroy one who had proved his seditious quality by daring to resist Il Mussulman.

this. The yellow fever we have is of
a very mild type-very few deaths to
the number of cases. The disease is
scattered all over the city. The gar
den district where everything is nice
and clean, inhabited by the wealthiest
class, seems to have more cases than
any other portion of the city. This
sounds little strange, nevertheless it
is true. In the rear portion of the

live, which is always filthy, it is only
once in a while you hear of a case.
These people may be fever proof.
They have enough to stand, in the

system Regulator
The recent appearance Of yellow fever in some
of our Southern cities should cause persons liv.
ing in sections liable to be exposed to the disease
to make preparation to prevent its appearance
in their midst. The most effective means of do
ing this is to put the Vital organs in such high
state of health that the disease cannot find con-
ditionS in the body favorable to it. To do this
reliable system regulator is required, a medicine
that will cleanse, strengthen and stimulate, The
celebrated PRICKLY ASH BITTERs is particI-
lary adapted to perform this service, hence its
name, The System Regulator 1t exercises its
good influence in the stomach by removing bad
ly digeSted matter and assisting the proper dis
position of food. 1t cleanSes and regulates the
liver and bowels, keeps them active and free
from bilious or conStipated conditions, and what
is MORE important. it strengthens The kidneys so
that they can properly perform their great WORK
of extracting impurities in the blood.
The occasional use of PRICKI.Y ASH BITTERS,
say half a wineglaSSfull every night before going
to bed, and due regard for sanitary regulations
about the household. will preserve health, even
though yellow fever becomes epidemic in its
most deadly form Keep Il bottle of this great
remedy in the house; ii is safeguard to health.
