TURKEY READY TO FIGHT.
Relations Strained Between Bulgaria
and the Porte.

London, Nov. 14.-The unusually well
informed correspondent of the. "Times" at
Vienna says;-
"The final treaty of peace between
Turkey and Greece has noty been signed,
and the negotiations of the powers with
respect to autonomy for Crete have hardly
emerged from tie initial stage, when al
ready there are disquienting symptoms in
the Balkans,
"The relation between Bulgaria and the
Porte are strained. The Sultan is pre-
pairing for all eventualities, and 100000
Turkish soldiers are echeloned on the Bull
garien frontier, armed with Mausers and
amply provided with horses and guns.
"Servia, of course, would be implicated
in any complications in connection with
Macedonia while recent accounts from
Albania report signs of growing unrest
On the whole, the outlook in the East is
in no wise reassuring."

y successful Surgical Operation

Heretofore it required several
months of painful treatment to cure
what is called Trachoma, or chronic
granulated eyelids, but modern surg
eryhas invented devices and opera
tions which, when properly and skill
fully performed. shorten the process
of a complete cure, an operation re-
quiring only half hour and sub
sequent treatment fora fewnays which

DR.. Ignatz Mayer, Of St. Louis. a
distinguished oculist now in this city.
assisted by an accomplished Cape
Girardeau' surgeon and physician
DR.. W. c. Patton, performed this del
icate operation with complete success
last Tuesday afternoon on our little
daughter Marie's eyes. The mucous
lining of the eyelids. which had been
covered by granulatiOn, was removed
by a delicately constructed instrument.
leaving behind a smooth surface. or.
as the doctors call it. a smooth and
healthy cOniunctive.
DR.. Mayer is a slillful oculist Of the

and has done good work here. 1t is

publish merited testimonials and
justifiable puffs. This however we

What Newspapers DO for n CITY.

At Il supper recently at Topeka,
Kansas. Major J. Il. Hudson was
called on 10 respond to the subject.
:. What newspaper contributes to the
building of city" he said:
Il congratulate myself that | am
permitted to be one of your number
here to night. TheeXcellent speeches,
the music, the fine dinner. and the
general sentiment of good fellowship
distinguishes this banquet as they
have the preceding ones given by this
organization.
THE newspapers are as necessary
to-day in building q city as carpen-
ters are in building a house. They are
like the carpenters-they do not own
the structure when built. they do not
furnish the capital with which to
build it, and like the carpenter. they
generally see thearchitects and owners
get all the credit when the city has
grown to success The bankers.
doctors, capitalists, bIilders. news
paper men and promoters of towns
remind us OF the many wheels Of Il
watch, each useless without the 9TH
ers and all essential 20 the perfect
timepiece. In the years not long
past, when yOu ana | were boys. Mr..
Toastmaster. before the ConestOga
wagon and the tallOw candle were
memories. cities and towns grew in 4
slow ana natural way, and churches
and school houses and newspapers
came along in due time. the legitimate
products and necessities of pOpula
ton. To-day steam and electricity
and boom .ethods have changed al!
that. We .ow build the city around
the depot and telegraph Office. the
school hou>-s. the churches and the
newspaper Dtfices.
One OF the %ravest responsibilities
resting on the editor is the regulation
OF the weather He assures the farm
ers that all indications. including
grounding day. promises the com
ing of wonderful productive year.
BY carefully prepared comparisons
with other years theeditor encourages
the citizens TO believe that the drouth
or the long continued rainfall Is not
nearly so bad as il was in otheryears.
Some wicked dandill-dcsigningi individ-
uals who have not been supported by
the paper for offices as persistently
and as often as their patriotism de-
manded. assure the people that the
newspaper eXaggerate the weather.
that editors swear in their mild and
literary style that the hot weather j.
not toohot for corn: that the aggravat-
ing sprinkle of rainin a time of drouth
was a-copious shower. that the long
continued polar weather of the winter
is needed to kill the microbes in the
air. and that it is not nearly so cold
as it j up in Minnesota.

as a teacher by the school board of
Poplar Bluff: That was ten days
before our board met 10 elect teachers.
If so will she please explain why
