EYE WITNESS TELLS OF AR
NENIiN sgASSACRES AND
ATROCITIES

London, Oct. 26.--Girls of Armenia
are traded as chattels.
Brutality of the inhuman ally OF
! the Kaiser is unthinkable.
A long account by an eyewitness OF
Armenian atrocities is telegraphed by
the Reuter- correspondent with the
Dardanelles fleet. The statement is
from an official source, the CORE
spondent explaining that it was gI,en
to the British staff by an Armenian
serving in the Turkish army, who was
taken prisoner. This account begins
iatg E,rzerum, the principal city OF
Turkish Armenia, last March. ii
covers travels about various parts Of
Aimenia and gives details of yariou
atrocities along familiar lines--hJM
the Bishop of Sivas was shod with
shoes of red hot iron by village
blacksmith at the order Of the Turks,
and how NEE of Tokat we're tied to
gether in groups of four and taken
out one hundred at time to the
marshy districts for massacre.
The account describes how women
were tied to the tails Of OK carts and
exposed to hunger and rough weather
until they accepted conversion to
Islam or death, how mothers were
bayoneted before the eyes of their
children, and how Armenian girls were
distributed as chattels among civil
and military officials.
The prisoner says that as soldier
he himself was compelled to assist in
many massacres. His account closes
as follows:
There is reason to believe German
advisers of the Turks have urged
the undesirability of allowing large
alien and presumably unfriendly pop
ulation to inhabit forts which lie open

FOR ACID STOMACHS
USE MACNEsIl
Quickly Stops Sour Burning Feeling And
Makes Digestion Painless

The almost universal use of magnesia
by physicians and specialists in the treat
ment of stomach troubles, Is due to the
fact that it stops foods fermentation and
neutralizes the acid---the direct cause of
hearty all stomach troubles. OF the many
forms of magnesia such as oxides, cit
rates, carbonates, sulphates, ETC., the
most suitable and efficient, and the one
prescribed by leading specialists is
bisurated magnesia, a teaspoonful of
which in a little warm water Immediately
after eating will instantly neutraize the
acid stop fermentation, and thus ensure
painless normal digestion. Care should be
taken to get bisurated magnesia, as its
action Is infinitely more effective. 1t is
also, by the way. usually stocked by
druggists in convenient compressed tab
Jets as well as in the ordinary powder
form. Stomach sufferera and dyspeptics
who follow this plan and avoid the use
of pepsin, charcoal, soda mnts, drugs
and medicines are invariably astonished
to find that the stomach, relieved of the
Irritating acid and gas, soon regains
its normal tone, and can do its work
alone without the doubtful aid of arti-
