MESSUDIEH A MERE HULK.
TURKISH OFFICERS SAY
Destruction Of the Vessel by British
Submarine Regarded as of
Small Consequence.

| Correspondence Of the Associated Press
CONSTANTINOPLE. March - In
naval circles here it is maintained
that little glory came to the British
submarine which torpedoed the Mas
sudieh at the entrance of the Darda-
nelles. The Messudiah, it is claimed,
was at that time nothing but a hulk,
which had been stationed in those wa
ters for the purpose of making the in
, spection of the entrance to the Dar-
danelles by means of searchlights pos
sible. In addition naval circles here
claim that the British submarine did
not dive through mine field. because
the Messudieh was stationed outside
the field-several knots away from II.
in fact.
How the Messudiah became a hulk is
a rather interesting story. On the Mes
sudieh were to be found the two big
gest guns IN Turkey, two S.2-lnch .io
caliber Armstrong pieces. \ little while
before the outbreak of the European
war the British naval mission reported
to the Turkish navy department that
the guns in question would have to un-
mended that for this purpose they be
shipped to the Armstrong works in
England. This was done.
When the war broke out it was found
that the Messudieh minus her heavy
guns was of little use. 1t was then de-
cided to take her secondary armament
of twelve six-inch pieces and her bat
terry of fourteen twelve Founders ashore
and arm with them several anti-tor-
pedo boats and anti-mine-layer stations
which had been established There was
little the 10.0o-ton vessel could be put
to after that, and SO 1t was decided to
employ her powerful searchlights at
the entrance to the Dardanelles.

}MEkT INJURIOUS
| TO THE KIDNEYS
Take a Tablespoonful of Salts
If Back Hurts or Bladder
Bothers-Meat Forms
Uric Acid.

We are a nation of meat eaters
and our blood is filled with uric
acid, says a we'll known authority,
who warns us to be constantly on
guard against kidney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to
free the blood of this irritating
acid, but become weak from the
overwork; they get sluggish; the
( eliminative tissues clog and thus
the waste is retained in the blood
to poison the entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps of lead. and you have
stinging pains in the back or the
urine is cloudy, full of sediment,
or the bladder is irritable. obltging
you to seek relief during the night;
when you have severe headaches,
nervous and dizzy spells. sleep,ess-
ness, acid stomach or rheumatism
in bad weather, get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of
lad Salts; take tablespoonful. in
glass of water before breakfast
each morning and in few days
your kidneys will act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been
used for generations to flush and
stimulate clogged kidneys, to neu-
tralize the acids in urine SO it,
is no longer a source of irritation,
thus ending urinary and bladder
disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cam
not injure; makes a delightful ef-
tervescent lithia-water drink. and
nobody can make a mistake by
.aking a little occasionally to keep
he kidneys clean and active.

house, and when the sirup was almost,
but not quite. thick enough for sugar
he would pour a little on this snow,
Right away it would harden into what
is called maple wax, and Farmer
Browns boy and great many other
people think there is nothing quite SO
delicious as maple wax.
From the safe cover of the black

longed and longed for a taste of that
delicious sirup and sugar, for no one
has a sweeter tooth than Buster Bear
He began to wonder il they were 60

half gone. But at last Farmer Brown
and Farmer Browns boy came out OF
Then, each with a lantern, they started
off through the Green Forest in the
direction of their home. Buster watched
until the bobbing lights disappeared.
and boldly walked over to the little
house.
Round and round it he prowled. sniff-
ing and snuffing and whining. Tor
there were wide cracks between the
boards, and the smell of the good
things within set him almost crazy. He
stood up on his hind legs and pushed
against the door, but it was latched
Then he tried to get his claws In at lhe
cracks and pull it open Quite by ac-

and the door swung OPEN Buster was
so startled that he jumped back with
low growl. Then he stared in and
waited Nothing more happened. He
poked mis- head in. All was quiet Then
he walked in. There was the hateful

delicious smell of sugar and sirup- he
walked over to corner where We're
