That cataIrh is not caused by blood troubles is self-evideDt when you reflect that attacks are always due to sudden climatic changes or exposure, and occur most frequently during the winter and spring, though the blood is as pure then as in summer or fall. A remedy which quickly relieves and cures the catarrhal attacks has been found in Ely's Cream Balm.

WARRINGTON, June 15.-Mr. Terrell, tho
United States Minister at Constantinoplo, tele-
Rraphed to the State Department to-day that an
trade for tho acceptance Of DIR. James b. Angel
as Mr.. Terrell's successor had been issued by the
Turkish Government. The department has
known since Saturday that the objections Of the
Porto to DR.. Angel would be waived, but its in
formation was OF an unofficial character.
The trade marks the end of the diplomatic in
cident caused by the Porte's intimation that UNI
less DIR. Angel could explain satisfactorily GER
tain statements attributed to him in the Ameri.
can newspapers and tho status OF tho religious
body to which he belonged with reference TO the
political affairs OF Turkey no would be regarded
as persona non 0rota. which meant that tho
President would be obliged to appoint another
Minister.
DR.. Angell assured the Porte that the Congre-
gationalist Church. OF which no 10 O member,
was not a political organization, and had no
designs on tho Sultan's possessions. When the
Porto acknowledged that the explanation was
acceptable. DIR. Angel engaged passage from
New York, and intended to sail on June 10.
Nothing was heard from the Turkish Govern
ment about tho other matters about which In.
quiry had been made, and, although tho State
Department officials with whom he conferred
advised him to sail. he decided to wait until
formal notice was given by the Porte that he
would be received. He will now start for Tur-
key without delay.
Mr.. Terrell, who has been anxious to DO re-
lieved. and remained In Constantinople only to
expedite the settlement of the Angel Incident,
said in his telegram that he would start for the
United States to-day.
