II Helps the Newspapers.

Washington, Dec. 12.-Since the
promulgation of the constitution
granting liberty to the press in Turkey,
the demand for news printing paper
has increased to a great extent, not
only for the publication of more news
papers but for the increased circuIa-
ton of the old newspapers. Deputy
Consul General William Smith-Lyte
reports from Constantinople that an
American Bible house in that city
after purchasing newspaper and other
qualities of paper for many years in
Europe, has found that it can get what
it needs from the United States

HEALTH IS TOO GOOD.
Absence of Sickness Forces Chicago
Drug stores to Close.

Chicago Dec. 12.-Chicago is
amazingly healthy. At least that is
what druggists say.
Drug stores in many parts of the
city are closing their doors on account
of decreased trade. Seven nave sus-
pended business on the South side
since Monday and a number on the
West and North sides have closed in
the last ten days.
The state of the public health has
contributed largely to the present con-
clifton of the drug trade, but the tenn
porary cessation of the ice cream soda,
which is a big item to druggists, has
played its share in the reduction of
receipts.
Some drug stores, it is declared,
have installed a chop suey and chill
concarne lunch to take the place of
iced beverages.
