Athens. April S.-The identical notes
Of warning delivered on Tuesday by

M. Skouzes. the Greek minister for
foreign affairs, have had very little APP
preciable affect. The newspapers de-
clare that they are really of no prac-

certain. A complete calm character
ICES the whole city, although placards
have been posted in many places
strongly advocating war. Last even
ing military patrols paraded the prin-
cipal streets. The newspaper censure
the clamor for war.
The Larissa correspondent of the
London Times telegraphs his paper:
after visiting the frontier posts 1
am convinced that the Greeks are
showing plenty of strategical skill i'm
disposing of their army and overcoming
difficulties on the frontier. 1t is now
clear that they are relying upon rapid
movements in the field, particularly
artillery movements. They seem to
disregard the moral value of strongly
intrenched positions, which the Otto
mans lay great stress upon. If these
are once passed Thessaly win be at
the mercy Of the invading Turkish
force. All hangs for Greece on the pos
sibility that a rising in Macedonia will
occupy the attention of the Turks. The
Hellenic emissaries have omitted no ef-
fort to get the peasantry well armed
and ready for revolt"
Rear Admiral r.. II. Harris, of the
British fleet, was shot at by a Moslem

There were conflicts in various parts
Of Crete yesterday. In every instance
the insurgents We're the aggressors.
They have captured several cannon at
Kissamo, which is at the western end
of the island. The insurgents in that
vicinity have written to the foreign ad-

samo. The Turkish garrison there has
asked for assistance
Two thousand insurgents have crowd
ed around Sitia, at the eastern end OF
the island, and a French warshlp has
landed tiVe guns In anticipation of an
attack upon that place.
At Larissa the war feeling grows
steadily. All day the troops have
waited anXiously for the news as to
the decision of the government. The

WHAT IS your rRApEa
Each Trade or Occupation Has It's Special
Disease.

It is well known among medical men that
certain diseases are more readily developed
in certain occupations than in others. That
each occupation has its attendant physical
weakness Engineers, railroad men and
similar occupations suffer mostly from kid
dey troubles and men who are often exposed
TO the weather suffer from rheumatism,
while clerks aud professional men, in fact
the army Of people whose business keeps
them indoors, are oftentimes great sufferers
from piles and constipation. In this con
nectiou the following letter is of interest to
people whose occupation will not allow suf-
fccnt outdoor exercise.
Mr.. a. f. Calhoun, notary public and
jewelcr and matchmaker of Crclevile w.
Va, writes as follows:
had been a severe sufferer from piles
but little benefit, when about three years
ago I saw the Pyramid Pile Cure advertised
and scut for it,

but after only two applications the piles dis
appeared and from that day to this l have

highly TO sufferers from piles.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is free from
cocaine, opium or amy mineral poison, abso
lutely safe, pleasant aud painless sold by
druggists at so cents per package If there
is any constipation the Pyramid Pills should
be used with the pile cure. The pills are 25
cents per package
Any druggist will tell you that the Pyr-
mid is The best known and most successful
and popular pile cure ever placed on the
market and its reputation as a safe and rad
ical cure has only resulted from the personal
recommendation Of people who have been
cured of this distressing ailment.

WAR AND COMMERCE.


The Inventor rs Potent Factor In the
One ns In the other.
War is always horrible possibility, but
when diylsted Of its personal and political
details it cannot but POSSESS u peculiar
fascination for the engineer, especially
since engineering has so largely entered
into all the methods of modern warfare
Since the Inst great war the machinery of
warfare has been almost entirely reoreat-
ed, and indeed many devices have been
invented, constructed and become obso-
lete without ever having had u chance to
show what th, y were orth in actual com
bat. should tho great lowers lccome in
volvod In warfare, however, there is no
doubt that numerous mechanical devices,
till tie present kept secret, will appear IN
various lines of fighting machinery, and it
Is not impossible that, as in the days of
themonitor armanonts and equipments
upon which millions have been spent will
find themselves relegatod to the curiosity
shop overnight.
The restless ingenuity of the inventor Is
almost ms much Of a bune to the leaders of
commercial warfare as TO the war lords 81
militarism. II has been said, and doubt
less with truth, that tho managers of tho
great commercial combinations consider
the possibilities OF SupCfSeulnR luNCL lloha
as the greatest clement of risk in their
calculations. From this point of attack
industrial combinations are almost help
less, for no degree of business skill can
avail when whole plants are rendered OBJ
soete by tho advent of some new device or
process which may supplant the entire
method Of manufacture, II not the product
itself. 1t is this equalizing clement which
may, in obedience to the law Of supply and
| demand, check TO great extent the
growth of commercial combinations, in
| tended to control production, prices and
| business. The very success Of business
combination sets inventors to work de-
vising methods, processes and machines to
I accomplish similar results by other means,
and no man knows what a day may bring
forth when the tide of invention is turned
in any one definite direction. The nat
I ural laws of the physical forces must con
troll in the end and it is to those laws
that the development of the commercial
side, as well as the technical portion Of
human industry, must look for ultimate
guidance. - assicrs Magazine.
