A FAMILY
MEDICINE
In Her Mothers Home, Says This
Georgia Lady, Regarding Black
Draught. Relief From Head
ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc.


Ringgold, Ca Mrs. Chas. CASTOR,
of. this place, writes: Il am a user
of Thedford's Black-I&raught; in fact,
It was one Of our family medicines.
Also in my mothers home, when l
was a child. When any Of us child
ren complained of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave US
a dose of Black-Draught, which would
~ectify the trouble. Often in the
Spring, we would have malaria and
chilIs, or troubles of this kind, we
would take Black -Draught pretty reg
ular until the liver acted well, and
we would soon be up and around
again. We would not be without 1t.
for 1t certainly has saved us lots OF
doctor bills. just dose of Black
Draught when not SO well saves
lot of days in bed"
Thedford's Black-Draught has been
in use for many years in the treat
ment of stomach, liver and bowel
troubles, and the popularity which 1t
now enjoys is proof Of its merit.
If your liver is not doing its duty,
you will suffer from such disagree
able symptoms as headache, bilious.
ness, constipation, indigestion, etc.,
and unless something is done, serious
trouble may result
Thedfords Black-Draught has been
found valuable remedy for these
trouIeses. 1t is purely vegetable, and
acts in a prompt and natural way,
regulating the liver to its proper
functions and cleansing the bowels OF
impurities. Try it. Insist on Thed-

TRAGIC SITUATION
In WESTERN ASIA

At least 100000 Armenians and
Syrians in Turkey have persisted dur
ing the past three years from mas
sacre, deportation, exposure, starva-
ton and disease.
Nearly four million are now home
less and in dire distress.
100000 of those in need are orphans.
100000 refugees have fled the
Turkish dominions and in their tenn
porary homes cry for help.
The military successes of the allies
and resultant political changes seem
certain to render all easily accessible
soon.
Little children scarcely able to feed
themselves live absolutely alone in
deserted homes.
$4,000 children under twelve years
OF age are starving in Syria and the
Lebanon alone.
Sufferers in the Lebanon district re-
Gently were dying at the rate of 1000
a day.
Distribution is wisely and econo-
mically made by absolutely reliable
agents.
Three dollars per month will save a
child; $500 will save its mother.
All remittances are sent through the
State Department.

Henry M. Morgenthau, Former Am
bassador to Turkey: at has been to
me source of great satisfaction to
know that the relief work carried on
under the direction and with the sup
port OF the American Committee for
Relief in the Near East has contiu-
ued without abatement since my with
dtawal from Turkey From all that
have learned through conference with
American representatives who have
recently come from Turkey, | am con-
WINGED that the work is still going on
with increasing force and effective
ness.
1T Is gratifying to learn that the
Turkish officials have promised to CO.
operate in the matter of caring for the
terrible restitution which so widely
prevails in the country They could
do no less since the destitute Protest
ant, Catholic, Jew and Mohammedau
alike, is fed and clothed. Need,
not creed, rightly defines your field Of
service.
Let us hope and pray they have
seen the error of their ways. The
needs OF these poor, furnishing, shell
terless and scantily clad people, de
priyed of nearly all of their bread
winners, is perhaps the most heart
rendering of any in the world.

We rejoice that our own govern
ment is able to loan millions OF doll

other allied nations with which the

fortunately, there is at present no
friendly, paternal government to
which our government can legitimate
ly make loans for use in behalf of
these millions of homeless destitute in
Western Asia. Therefore, our task is
not merely that of experimenting by
charity government grants, but rather
task OF governmental magnitude in
which, temporarily at least, the full
responsibility rests upon the Shout
ders OF private philanthropy"

FIVE RELIEF CENTERS

Organization in five relief centers
in Western Asia. Constantinople is
the gateway to points within the
Turkish empire. Funds are trans
united from America by the way OF
Switzerland in the form of credit. In
Constantinople the relief is sent to
twenty-six relief districts, where the
funds are administered to the Greeks
Armenians and Syrians and subject
races OF the empire by American mis-
slonaries, teachers, neutral consular
agents and Swiss distributors. Audited
reports are filed in Constantinople
with the Swedish Legation, which rep
resents officially the United States
government. All the committees COM
municatlons pass through the State
Department. One hundred Americans
are still within the Turkish empire adj

Southern Palestine is reached from
Cairo. The capture of Jerusalem made
$4,000 sufferers accessible for i'm

provided for until the next harvest is
garnered.
The British authorities are giving
the fullest possible cooperation in ad-
mnlsterlng this relief.
Lower Mesopotamia has been
opened up by the advance of the Brit
ish lines. Refugees find their way
through these lines and receive tenn
porary aid, becoming self-supporting
