BRITON AND TURK.
A Surprise, a Fair Fight and the Way
the Battle Ended.

There is a story of Gallipoli that
deals with a fight in the open and eN-
hibits the 'unspeakable" Turk as a fair
and worthy enemy. This is the story:
a young English officer, doing OBJ
servation work alone, was suddenly
confronted by Il Turkish officer, SINH
larry engaged. The Turk was as sur
prised as the Briton, but came for
ward, revolver in hand. The English
man had no revolver. He stood his
ground, his hands in the large pockets
of his tunic.
Seeing that his adversary was I'LL.
armed, the Turk, much to the surprise
Of the Briton, threw down his gun and
put up his fists in approved prize ring
style. The Englishman put himself
on guard. and the next moment the
Turk flung himself upon him, and the
pair began to fight desperately.
The men were about the same age,
the same weight and had equal knowl-
edge of the art of boxing. They
fought without stopping for about ten
minutes. BY that time each was fair,
ly exhausted, and they paused for a
brief rest. only to continue their little
private accounting when they had
found their breath. Round after round
the fight went on. while out in the
gulf Of Saros the ships fired auto
matically, and back Of each Of them
the field artillery Numbered. Neither
seemed to be able to get any decisive
advantage over the other, and at last
Turk and Englishman rolled over on
the ground and laughed and laughed
Just then the Englishman's hand
touched something. 1t was the Turks
pistol. He picked it up and handed ii
to his enemy. The two young mel
shook hands. and each returned to his
own lines.-New York Post.

IS IT YOUR
Don't Mistake the Cause of Your Troubles

Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a Jane,
weak Or aching back they think that
it is only a muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think it
will soon correct itself. And 80 it is
with all the other symptom of kidney
disorder. That is where the dangerof-
ten lies. You should realize that
these troubles often lead to dropsy or
Bright's disease. An effective remedy
for weak az diseased kidneys is

perience of a resident of Langdon

Young Fur Seals.

From the ages of one to four years
fur seals are extremely playful. They
are marvellous swimmers and frolic
about in pursuit of II another, now
diving deep and then, one after the
other, suddenly leaping high above the
surface in graceful curves, like por-
poises. Squids and fish Of various spe-
natural enemy is the killer whale,
which follows their migrations and
haunts the sea about their breeding
ground, taking heavy toll among them.

His two Sons-John p. and Theodore

up a dance and throughout the even
ing the or eight couples who had
been invited danced to music that was
played on a photograph in High Bridge,

Mr.. Gaty and his o n are enthusiasts

which made transcontinental telephony
possible, as well as a wireless tele

adapted the two devices to amateur

The photograph that furnished the
dance music was played in the Higl

through the %megaphone they could b.
heard all over the house.
