That Is the situation In Ali-xamlropol, a city In ft 11 -hi n n Armenia, according to Miss Hcnnlne L'ukeslan, a pretty Armenian gn ', one of the survivors of four years MISS HERMINI DAKESIAN. of tbe borron of Turkish massacres and deportations. Saved by an Anierl can woman, alia hai come to tbla coun try aud entered Oberliu College. With ber came fourteen other Arm olan girls Id charge of tils Adelaide S. Dwlght, a Near East Relief worker, who bai been Instrumental In helping to av bundreda of tbouaaudi of their people from deatb by starvation. MIm Dwlght, who la not given to eiagger atlon and baa aeen conditions at flrst hand, says more than a million people are facing death by starvation In Ar menia and will peiisb unlesa America aids. Ueraelf an eyewltuesa to the slaugh ter of hundreds of helpless women and children by the Turks aud a vic tim of the deportations, Miss Duke slsn, an unusually pretty girl, saya there Is untold suffering In Armenia and Syria, She praises the efforts of the Near East itellef, formerly the American Committee for Armenian and Syrian Relief, lo save us many of these people as possible. At Krlvan, the capital of the Armenian republic, one hot meal Is given out dally, and by this relief alone tbe city's deatb rata baa been cut from a thousand dally to an average of twenty. At AleiaDdro pol, where the refugees from Turkish Armenia were driven by thousands, the situation Is appalling, Miss Dakeslan saya. It la to avert these wholesale deaths that Near East Relief la making a nation-wide appeal for funds. BOY SCOUTS IN YOUNG ARMENIA Strangest Troop of All in Con stantinople Being Made Into Good Citizens. Amerlrun Boy Scout training Is aid ing prominently in tha rehahllltuilun of hundreds af little Armenian boy refugees from the Turkish masstu res. wha have been organised Into a scout troop In Constantinople aa the solution of one of tha most troublesome pmb lems that confronted tbe Near East Re lief workers lu thst city. Hounded and driven for four years, having seen their parenta and relative slaughtered or worse by Turks and Kurds and themselves forced to beg, steal or do almost anything to eke out the barest existence, these boys had completely lost their moral sense when they Anally found refuge la the Near East Relief orphauges. The boys had been clad In rags for as long that they had forgotten how to take rare of clothes. This was a traited.v when the Near East Relief had need of every pair of shoes and of every vull of dollies for new boys constantly ft m lug In. Then the U) were organ'rd Boy Scouts and given their uniforms They began to be careful of their school clothes as well as of their uni forms. They had been so often hungry they had come to steal without compunc tion. When they first entered the or-phaiiak-ea lliey continued to steal. One boy atole a purse from his American teacher. For two or three weeks after he became a Bay Scout he was obvious ly uneasy. One day he came to her with the puree la bis band. "I don't want to give It back," be said reluctantly. "But I have to. I'm a Boy Scout now." To form mora scout troops to trans form these little unfortunates Into good cltlrens, Is one of tbe reasons why the Near East Relief, 1 Uaalson avenue, New York city, la aukl&f Its appeal for funds.

There are people who never have a movement of Ihe bowels without it is produced by a cathaitic. Most ofthein have brought that condition on them selves by the use of mineral waters and strong cathartics that take too much water out of the system and aggravate the disease they are meant to relieve. A mild laxative touic like Chamberlain's Tablets n fiord a gentle movement of the bowels that you hardly realize has been produced by a medicine, aud their use is nut so likelr to be followed by consti pation.
