WITHOUT EVEN REPLYING TO AN
uLTIMATUM FROM LONDON
AND oETRoeRAD.
GERMANY MAKES
OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT
Ottoman Empire Announces HostiII-
ties Against England as Well as
Russia and Formally Annexes
Egypt, Which is British
Territory.

London.-Turkey has formally an
hexed Egypt, according to a German Of
ficial statement, which has been re-
ceived from Berlin by the Marconi
wireless telegraph company. The Ital-
ian cabinet has resigned. 1t is off.
cially announced in London that the
Turkish government summarily shut
off communications with the British
embassy at Constantinople last Fri
day and that the British government
must take whatever action required
to protect British interests and ter
ritory and Egypt from attacks made
or threatened. A dispatch to the Ex-
change Telegraph company from Ath-
ems said that the Russian ambassador
and his staff have left Constantinople.
1t is believed in official circles, in
Athens that the question of peace in
the Balkans depends solely upon the
attitude of Bulgaria. Greece although
resolved to preserve neutrality, is
closely watching her interests. Both
Great Britain and Russia have pre-
scented the following demands to the
Sublime Porte: An explanation OF
Turkeys naval action in the Black
Sea; the dismissal of German officers
from Turkish ships; and the dismant.
ling of the cruisers Goeben and Bres
lau, said to have been purchased by
Turkey Of Germany.

So Disappolntinu.


Reginald loved his wife tenderly and
devotedly, but he had to acknowledge
in the inmost recesses Of his heart
that the hand that welded the powder
puff lost its art in the pudding basin.
"What pudding would you like to-
night, love?" she cooed at breakfast
time.
"Oh, anything" he whispered des-
perately.
"Anything? she reiterated, in a
panied tone.
"Well, you know, old girl; anything
light-only don't tire yourself out"
you shall have your favorite-cus-
tard DEAR" she promised.
Toward seven o'clock Reginald re-
turned, but the sound of weeping and
crashing of teeth greeted his trained
ear.

implored, as he rushed into the kitch'

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 here! What
kind of bird is this?"
The mother pointed to the sign on
the cage, which read, THE Stork."
THE storki" cried the little girl
enthusiastically 20 mamma, do you

Ratio In Conureas.

The ratio of representation In the
lower house of congress at Washing
ton has steadily changed since thu
1889, when the Constitution began its
work the ratio was 10000 to the rep
resentative. In 1910 the ratio was 210,.
600 to the representative. If the ratio
did not rise the members of the lower
house would in time become too nu
mercus for business. 1t is for the pur-
pose of keeping the membership with
in reasonable bounds that the ratio is
made to keep pace with population.

London.-The British light cruiser
Hermes was sunk by German sub
marine in the Straits of Dover. This
official announcement has been made.
Nearly all the officers and men were
saved.
The German attempts to reach the
French channel ports have been re
sumed with renewed energy The
Germans undertook renewal of often
sive tactics, from the coast at Nieu-
port to Arras, and while they made
progress at some points, they were
repulsed at others, and in some cases
were compelled to give ground. Near
the coast their advance was checked
by an extension of the flooded area.
The battle is raging with the fury
that marked the opening of the last
phase of this campaign, and even on
the English coast the boom Of the big
naval guns which are bombarding the
invaders flank could be distinctly
heard.
The allies have brought up land
and sea forces in an endeavor to
check this second effort of the Ger
mans to establish themselves on the
French coast, from which they hope
to menace England.
The German official report an
nounces that the German troops had
occupied Ramscapelle, which is the
only railway and canal between Nieu-
port and Dixmude, but the French Of
fetal communication says that they
were driven out by a counter attack.

THE CHARM
or MOT ERHOOD
Enhanced By Perfect Physi-
cal Health.

The experience of Motherhood Is q try
Ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in a hundred is prepared or UNI
derstands how to properly care for her
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism untitled for the
trial Of strength, and when it is over
her system has received q shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, a most valuable tonic and
invigorator Of the female organism.

that there is no necessity for action.
He is, however, in favor of keeping
out the Hindus and was ready to urge
their exclusion before the committee.
He declared that no legislation was
contemplated affecting the Japanese

being kept out.
