Colonel Z. II. II. Massey tells OF this
battle which he witnessed in the course
Of his explorations in Asiatic Turkey.
The cause Of the fight was an attempt
ed theft of sheep. He says: Some

Sipkanli Kurds' border when the usual
alarm signals, shots fired and smoke
fires kindled at all the villages around.
brought clouds of hOrSemen gallOping
wildly across in that direction. This
did not look very reasSuring in the mid
die of 50 wild Il country, where a hui
man life is never worth that of good
sheep, but We soon perceived, by the
yelling Kurds with grinning faces who
dashed past us, that to us no harm was
intended.
we reached the village not far from
which the battle was raging to find the
fat roofs occupied by all the women.
Quite regardless of stray bullets they
followed the tluctuating fortunes of
their side amid the din of their own
shrill tongues, which almost drowned
the laundering reports of the Kurdish
powder anything but noiSeless or
smOkcless.
1T was soon over. The fiorks were
triumphantIy brought back, together
with the bodies Of q few dead Kurds
and some Others wounded. We passed
on amid the WailinS of the women just
widowed in q fight for Il few sheep"

His ''watson's Magazine" published in New York was not on bas- is that gave him free scope and range. What he had to say was about all the matter in the maeazine that had a Wat son flavor. It was well for him that he severed all connection with it and started a new venture on his own lines. The first issue for January 1907. of watsou's Jeffersonfan Magazine has made it's appearance. It Is published in Atlanta and will be issued monthly. The front page contains a splendid picture of Mrs. Jefferson, as good as we have ever seen. and his home The natter is of the usual Watson variety and deals extensively with trusts and trust magnates. The first article Is devoted to Col. ". D. Mann and the first Watson Magazine.

There are two ways to remove consti- patton; the wrong way is to drench the bowels with powerful, gripping, drastic eathartic that injures the coating of the bowel channels and produces an early return of the trouble in more chronic form. The right way is to use natural, easy and mild laxative that tones up and strengthens the bowels and leaves a healthful influence behind it.
