Relations Are Strained.
London, Oct. 31.-A Reuter- dispatch
from Constantinople says that the sit
uation between Great Britain and Tur-
key is becoming daily more strained
and appears to be nearing the break
ing point.
1T Is believed" the dispatch adds,
that should the allies experience a
setback in the European theater of
the war, especially in Poland, it will
be impossible to restrain the Turks,
as the war party is becoming more
and more powerful"
Tenth Nation at War.
Turkey is the tenth nation to be in
volved in the titanic struggle, If these
reports from Theodosia are true. It's
attacks are directed particularly
against Russia.
1t has been expected for weeks that,
yielding to German pressure and
promises, Turkey would break its neu-
trality and do some belligerent act.
Six hundred German officers have
arrived in Turkey since the war be-
gan. They brought siege guns, field
guns and ammunition with them.
1t is computed that Turkey has
from 100000 to 100000 men ready to
take the field. The German officers
put the number at 100000.

Stork's Good Memory.

While visiting the Berlin geological
gardens, says Lustige Batter, little
Gretchen saw a great white bird
standing on one leg in a cage. She
threw in a piece of candy; the bird
gobbled 1t up eagerly; and thrust its
head through the wire for more.
Presently Gretchen's mother came
along. 20 mother, see herel What
kind of bird is this?"
The mother pointed to the sign on
the cage, which read, THE Stork."

enthusiastically. o mamma, do you

Do not make the error Of regarding
grip as an exaggerated cold. There
is a big. difference between the two.
Grip is an epidemic disease that poi
sons the vital organs. When a per-
son has grip. the air passages are
alive with millions OF baciIli poison
ing the blood. The infected person
feels tired and exhausted.
1t requires a good tonic laxative to
keep the body of the patient as strong
as possible to counterfeit the effect Of
the poisons created by the grip bacil-
lus. An expectorant tonic with some
laxative qualities is the safest rem
edy. Such is Peruna- Beware es-
peciaIly OF coal tar powders or tablets
because they lessen the vitality of the
patient.
There is no specific for the grip.
Peruna has been used with good
success in former grip epide.nics. In
dications point to the return Of grip
this winter.

Arson brought in the days papers,
which alluded. as usual TO Cortlandt's
death as a murder. and printed their
customary sensational stories. even to
rehash OF all that had occurred Mt
the stag supper. This in particular
made Kirk writhe. knowing as he did
that II would reach the eyes OF his
newly made wife. He also wondered
vaguely how Edith CortIandt was
bearing up under all this notoriety.
The lawyer brought the further news
that Allan was in captivity as an ac-
cessory to the crime and that hence
forth Kirk need expect but few Wis
itors. Somebody. probably Ramon AL
fareZ. had induced the officials to treat
their prisoner with special severity.
During the days which followed.

confess even to his attorney. In the

at his self control. Runnels managed

had disappeared. He took a message
from Kirk to her. but brought back
word that he could not deliver IL.
1t was on Sunday. a week after his
arrest, that Edith Cortlandt came to
Kirk. He was surprised to see the
ravages that this short time had made
in her, for she was pale and drawn and
weary looking. as 81 from slcepless-
