Often The Kidneys Are
Weakened by Over-Work.
Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
It used to be considered that only
urinary and bladder troubles were to l>e
f traced to the kidneys,
but now modern
science proves that
nearly all diseases
have their beginning
in the disorder of
these most important
The kidneys filter
and purify the blood—
that is tlieir work.
Therefore, when your kidneys are weak
or out of order, you can understand how
quickly your entire body is affected and
how every organ seems to fail to do its
duty.
If you are sick or “ feel badly,” begin
taking the great kidney remedy, Dr,
Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, because as soon
as your kidneys are well they will help
all the other organs to health. A trial
will convince anyone.
If you are sick you can make no mis
take by first doctoring your kidneys.
The mild and the extraordinary effect of
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great
kidney remedy, is soon realized. It
stands the highest for its wonderful cures
of the most distressing cases, and is sold
on its merits by all
druggists in fifty-cent gg
and one-dollar size

how to find out if you have kidney or
bladder trouble. Mention this paper
when writing to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bing

but remember the name, Swamp-Root,
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, and the ad

SULTAN SURRENDERS
Realizing Hopelessness of Situa
tion Turkish Ruler Yields.
YOUNG TURKS IN CONTROL
Unnumbered Thousands Have Been
Massacred By Murderous Moslems.
Constantinople is Quiet.
Constantinople, Turkey.—The Yil
diz garrison surrendered to the con
stitutionalist forces. The command
ers of these battalions began send
ing in their submissioon to .vlalimoud
Sohefket Pasha, and the whole of the
troops protecting the palace gave their
formal and unconditional surrender.
Niaci Bey, who Is called the hero
of the -July revolution, is now in com
mand of the garrison.
Sultan Abdul Hamtd has been per
mitted to remain within the walls of
the Yildiz Kiosk, where, in company
with his ministers, he waited for the
outcome of the struggle between his
loyal troops and the army of invest
ment, each hour bringing him word of
a fresh disaster. It has been stated,
since victory rested with the consti
tutionalists, that the sultan himself
gave orders to his men not to resist.
Whether or not this is true, it can
be safely said of the troops within
the capital that they put up a stub
born resistance at all points, and the
losses on both sides are exceedingly
heavy for the length of time the en
gagement was in progress.
A report of the commander-in-chief
of the constitutionalist forces is au
thority for saying that the sultan will
he dealt with by the parliament, and
that there will be an anedquate in
quiry into the sovereign’s alleged
complicity in the recent mutiny.
Beirut, Turkey.—The situation in
Asiatic Turkey is one of extreme
gravity. How many thousands have
been massacred cannot even be esti
mated, because the disturbances have
been so widespread that it is impos
sible to obtain details of the happen
ings during the past ten days. The
latest estimates of the number killed
in the villayet of Adana reaches ap
proximately 25,000 and thousands
have been killed in the towns of oth
er districts. The state of seige,which
several of the places are undergoing,
has brought the inhabitants to the
verge of starvation, and each day
brings its tales of further atrocities
and the depths of misery and despair
to which the savagery of the fanatics
has brought the people.
Confirmation has been received of
the burning of the Armenian village
of Kessah. All the men and many
women and children have been slain.
The American property at Kessah was
destroyed. Miss Chambers, an Amer
ican missionary, is safe.
There are five American women
stationed here, including Miss Lam
bert, who has been sending out ap
peals for help, Miss Billings and Miss
Bowman. The authorities have refus
ed permission to Messrs. Lawson and
Chambers, also American missiona
ries, to go to their relief. Frantic ap
peals for protection and for food are
coming in from all sections.
Washington, D. C. —While condi
tions in the near east continue to
be alarming and unsettled, the state
department has been given assurance
by Great Britain through the Ameri
can embassy at London that her ships
on the scene are adequate to protect
Americans as well as English sub
jects.
The department has been assured
by the embassy of the safety of two
American women named Webb, about
whom some inquiries had bedti made.
Assurances are given that the am
bassadors are leaving nothing undone
in order to get relief to the distress,
ed cities.
Constantinople, Turkey.—The reign
of Abdul Hamid II ended with his
deposition and the accession of his
brother, Mehemmed Reschad Effendi,
as Mehemmed V., a variation of Ma
homet, it being considered inappro
priate to assume the precise name of
the prophet.
Mehemmed V is the thirty-fifth sov
ereign of Turkey, in the male descent
of the house of Osman, the founder
of the empire.

SMOKE PLAGUE CONQUERED.
Federal Experts Have Been Studying
Problem for Years.
Washington, D. C. —The smoke
plague of American cities has been
conquered by science, according to
the statement of federal experts, who
have been studying the problem for a
number of years. They not only make
the assertion that smoke prevention is
