 OF "CASCARETS
lNsURES YOU FOR MONTHS AGAINST A SICK HEADACHE, BILloUSNESS, CoNSTl-

 STOMACH.

Put aside-just once-the Salts, Ca thartic Pills, Castor Oils or purgatiye waters which merely force a passage way through the bowels, but do not thoroughly cleanse, freshen and puri- fly these drainage or alimentary or gans, and have no effect whatever upon the liver and stomach.
 Keep your inside organs pure and fresh with Cascarets, which thor ougihly cleanse the stomach, remove the undigested, sour and fermenting food and foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out of the system all the conslpated waste matter and poisons in the intestines and bowels.
 A Cascaret tonight will make you feel great by morning. They work while you sleep--never gripe, sicken and cost only 10 cents a box from your druggist. Millions of men and wo- men take a Cascaret now and then and never have Headache, Bilious ness, coated tongue, Indigestion, Sour Stomach or Constipated bowels. Cas- carets belong in every household. Children just love to take them.

FINAL NOTE DECLINES TO cEDE HOLY MoSLEM CITY TO THE
 ALLIED BALKAN STATES.
FIGHTING WILL BE RESUMED
United Cry of Balkan States Resi- dents is "War to the Bitter End" Greece Will Join Allies in
 Their Battles.

London. Jan. 1S.-Turkeys posi- tion as indicated by dispatches from Constantinople tonight refusing to cede Adrianople and the Aegean isl ands, it is believed here, will lead to a resumption of hostilities within week.
 The Balkan allies, after consider ing the whole situation among them selves earlier in the day, already had decided to wait untn the middle of next week for the answer of the porte to the point note of the pow CTS, and if then the reply was not re- eeiyed or was unsatisfactory to ad- dress a communication to the Turk ish delegation in the form of defi- nite ultimatum allowing Turkey AS CT 72 hours for a final decision.
 Should Turkey at that be unable or unwilling to come to the allies terms, the Balkan plenipoteniaries decided that a rupture of the peace confer ence was inevitable, Sofia, Belgrade and Cettinje would denounce the ar mistice and four days later the war would be resumed.
 The allies don't admit, or to be more exact, don't see the possibility of such proposals from Turkey or the powers as would allow of a re- sumption of negotiations, unless the porte openly declares it's readiness to give up Adrianople. So far, in- structions of the Bulgarian delegates are categorical on this subject and don't admit of a discussion of the proposal that Turkey retain Adria- nople even dismantling the fortifi- cations or continuing negotiations on other conditions, leaving the question of Adrianople to be disposed of last.
 Servia Montenegro and Greece, all support Bulgaria in this attitude. The success of bulgaria would mean an easier accomplishment of their wish es, especially in the case of Greece, which, in the conquest of Adrianople by Bulgaria, sees the creek occupa- tion of Saloniki less likely to be dis puted In addition, the allies feel that the time will never be more fav- orabie for them to act.
 It is evident that Turkish resources are not in the best of condition while on the other hand .ne allies as the result of their long preparation, are neryed to high pitch The seven weeks armistice has restored their armies and they have been gathering their forces at the important points. Throughout all the Balkan states, ac- cording to the plenipotentiaries in London. from the largest towns to the humblest hamlets, only one cry goes up:
 eternal enemy is driven out of Flu l rope forever"

Dark Furs Becoming.

It seems odd that so few should realize that dark furs are much more becoming than light, that is, to the average woman. Sable, mink. black fox, make her complexion look at it's very best, whereas ermine, white fox, miniver and squirrel have exactly the contrary effect
 The newest way of wearing the stole is to put the middle of it on in front, pass the ends over the shoul- ders, crossing them at the back and bringing them forward under the arms. Even fur capes with their rounded or pointed back are worn in this fashion, certainly very warm and comfortable, though slightly un- orthodox.
