MINISTER OF WAR

ACTION OF TURKS

WASHINGTON, Nov 10 That

tlefields was declared in a cablegram
to the Italian embassy yesterday b}
San Gieuliano, Italian minister OF
war. referring to the reported Ital-
ian atrocities against the Turks and
Arabs.
The cablegram from San Guieu-
liano was in the form of an Official
statement under the caption: Ital-
ian Heart; Arabian Cruelty
At the outset a recognized fact
that the people abroad might regard
the reported acts of the soldiers
as excessive cruelty and declared
that to be understood thoroughly

new YORK SUICIDE

NEW YORK, Nov. 10-One of
the most perplexing Identification
mysteries ever developed in New
York shrouds the body of the man
which rests in an uptown undertak-
ing parlor. In the opinion of two
persons, it is the body of Lord
Sholto Douglas, brother of the Mar
quis of Queensberry, and member
of one of the best-known families
in England But according to the
Marquis, who is quoted in dispatches
from Chicago, the body cannot be
that of his brother, who was safe
two days ago in the far northwest,
where he is engaged in locating min
ing land.
To add to the mystery, it has been
recalled that strange man bearing
marked resemblance to Lord
Douglas passed himself off as such
on several occasions.
| The body is that of the man who
committed suicide on Monday even

as Maurice Stuart, San Francisco.

 MT. Chaser has induced 'Ty'' to sign a, contract to star under his manage ment in a revised new baseball yer sion of ''The College Widow which is now in preparation.
 He will line out triplets and home- runs instead of making forty-yard dashes which Bill Bolton, formerly did and in the ninth inning of the big game of the season, the game with the Baptists, he will come to the bat with three on bases and four runs needed to win. Then he'll hit the ball over the fence, hit it so far that it wont be found and the college will have son and follow his three team mates in succession across the homeplate.
 As soon as the baseball season is over. Ty Cobb will leave Detroit and start rehearsals in New York.

Teeth Should Be
 Examined Al Least
 Every Six Months

Do not fail to have a thorough ex- animation of the teeth by a reliable dentist at least twice a year. Once the enamel shows ever so little a defect a cavity appears with startling rapid fty and many extra dollars and useless hours of pain are the result of a few months neglect.
 When the teeth are being examined have them thoroughly cleaned. There are some parts of the teeth very diff ficult to access by the ordinary brush. These are reached by the dentist, as are also the crevices between the teeth, the danger points of decay.
 This semi-annual cleaning means the preservation not only of the white ness and .brilliancy of the teeth, but of their structure as we'll. With the corners and crevices relieved of all deposit it is comparatively easy task to keep the visible portions in order.
 An important issue in the fight against decay is the constant eating of sweets. Sweets spell ruin to the teeth, unless all traces of sugar are removed after the sweets are eaten. When the toilet table is handy, use the brush and bit of cleaning paste or powder after eating candy or cake.
 Do not draw the brush across the gums too vigorously Or it will lacer- ate them, causing them to recede. Se lect a rather soft bristled brush and operate it up and down on the teeth rather than crosswise The bristles then penetrate the crevices between the teeth and remove any food parti- cles that may have lodged therein.
 Bicarbonate of soda, which is no other than ordinary baking soda is one of the best of the teeth preserva- tives and cleaners. Use it once day as you would tooth powder. Dissolve the soda in water and use it as a mouth wash after eating sweets

Every one knows who knows any thing at all about politics that if the direct nominating plan is to be enforced under the political philso- phy that upholds the machine it is inevitable that more money will be expended first in nominating candi- dates and second in electing them.
