ALLIES DO NOT lNDoRsE
WILSON'S TURKISH VIEW

washinston, April ls.-Ths allied

here to point out that without the &C.!
eeptance of the United States of, re-
sponsibility for part of the burden Of
the solution of the Turkish question,
the allies have found it impossible to
adopt the Presidents, suggestion that
the Turk be driven out of Europe. 9
The allies have taken the sposition,
it was said, that the eviction Of the
Sultan from Constantinople was impos-
sible without the assumption by some
power. preferably the United States,
of the obligation for the protection of
Constantinople and contiguous Turkish
territory. For economic and political
reasons, officials said, choice of any
other power than the United States
was precluded and since the United
States has refused the proffered man.
date over Turkey, no other solution
than to leave the Turk In Constanti.
nople under interallied control was pos.
sible.
Supervision of the Turk, it is gener-
ally believed by officials, will devolve
upon the Ottoman debt commission
which before the war consisted of rep
resentatives of Great Britain, France,
Italy, Russia, Austria. Hungary and
Germany, but which is now limited TO
the three allied powers.

the greatest war the world has ever
known. For the last fifty-three years
BOschee's Syrup has been used for
coughs, bronchitis, colds, throat ir-

RspIant Your Lost Teeth.


When ones front teeth are knocked
out there is no need to leave them on
the floor, for they can be reinserted
by good dentist.
DR.. H. nj. Slavery tells in the Lam
Get OondOn), of two cases, in each
of which several teeth were dislO-
Gated from their sockets. In one case
the teeth were placed in salt water
while the dentist carefully washed
out the sockets. Then they were
reinserted, a stitch or two taken
in the gums and the jaws were ban
daged shut so that the teeth bit on
a pad of lint. In the other case the
teeth still hung to the gums, so the
sockets were cleaned out without de-
taching the teeth. In both cases the
teeth became solidly fixed and the
patients could use them for normal
biting in a few months after the acct
dent
Dr. De Witt G. Henry of New York
replaced not long ago the teeth Of a
truck driver that had been knocked
out in collision. The man had
picked his teeth from the gutter and
ran up to the dentists office carrying
them in his hand.

CONDIMENTS OF MUCH VALUE
Spices Used in, FIavoring Not General
ly Given Credit for Their Good
Qualities.

Some of the spices that are often
employed in fiavoring preserves, both
Of fruits and meats, have a value that
is more important than the mere tick
ling of the palate. An investigation
recently made in France shows that
vinegar is not only an excellent pre-
sentative but a powerful means Of kill
ing bacteria.
Ginger, black white and red pepper
have little bactericidal effect, but the
action of mustard is most marked.
However, the best of all are cloves and
cinnamon, which act through their es-
sential oils (called eugenol and CHINA
mic aldehyde.
La Nature remarks that these re-
searches are highly important, for they
show that even in the small quantities
in which they are used these spices
may be employed in preserving far bet
ter than chemical antiseptics, such as
boric and salicylic acids, which are
often added, though the French law
prohibits their use.
