110 SKATERS SENT BY THIS COUNTRY

United States Star Performers Not to Compete in Contest.

NEW YORK. Feb. 14. In view of the extraordinary popularity that the sport of ice skating is enjoying at the present time, considerable surprise and some disappointment is expressed by lovers of the sport over the fact that the United States and Canada have not seen fit to send some of their star performers to compete in the world's figure skating championships this year. The championships are scheduled to begin today in Vienna, under the auspices of the Els club of Austria, which this year is celebrating its twenty-fifth anniversary. Since 1890, at St. Petersburg, there has been no American representative, so far as fancy skating is concerned, in Europe. Figure skating originated in Holland and in 1660 was introduced into England by royal exiles returning at the time of the restoration from Holland, when, they brought the Dutch roll. In Scotland the Edinburgh Skating Club existed in 1742. In America figure skating was an institution in Colonial days, and in 1772 Benjamin West, the painter, was a skilled skater, and during a visit to England he captivated the Londoners with his graceful gryations on the serpentine.

Sparrow Dlt For a Stork. An English sparrow flew into the flying cage in the zoo and began helping Itself to the cracked corn thrown upon the ground by the keeper. A Brazilian stork quietly approached and shot out Its six inch red beak and caught the sparrow. Going to the fountain, the big bird dipped the little one In the water and then swallowed It and looked about for more. "Oh. yon cannibal! Toa ought to get a beating!" exclaimed a woman visitor. "The sparrow ought to know better than to go in there," explained the keeper. "The stork has been eating half a dozen of these birds a week since be came here. -The English sparrow has a quick eye and is quick on the wing and Is seldom caught by prowling cats, but doesn't suspect anything with feathers on. The big bird is getting fat on a sparrow diet." New York Suiu

SEE IF YOUR CHILD'S TONGUE IS COATED If Cross, Irritable and Feverish it Means WasteClogged Bowels. No matter what ails your child, a gentle, thorough laxative physic should always be the first treatment given. If your child isn't feeling well; resting nicely; eating regularly and acting naturally it is a sure sign that its little stomach, liver and 30 feet of

bowels are filled with foul, constipated waste matter and need a gentle, thorough cleansing at once. When cross, irritable, feverish, stomach sour, breath bad or your little one has stomach-ache, diarrhoea, sore throat, full of cold, tongue coated; give a teaspoonful of Syrup of Figs and in a few hours all the clogged up waste, undigested food and sour bile will gently move on and out of its little bowels without nausea, griping or weakness, and you will surely have a well, happy and smiling child again shortly. With Syrup of Figs you are not drugging your children, being composed entirely of luscious figs, senna and aromatJcs it cannot be harmful, besides they dearly love its delicious fig taste. Mothers should always keep Syrup of Figs handy. It is the only stom

ach, liver and bowel cleanser and regulator needed a little given today will save a sick child tomorrow. Full directions for children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly printed on the package. Ask your druggists for the full name, "Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna," prepared by the California Fig Syrup Co. This is the delicious tasting, genuine old reliable. Refuse anything else offered.

Easy to Keep Afloat. If every person knew that it is impossible to sink if one keeps his arms under water and moves bis legs as If he were going upstairs and that one may keep this motion up for hours before fatigue ends it there would be few casualties. Such is the fact. Except where era jap renders motion impossible the man who gets an involuntary ducking has small chance of drowning. He can generally keep afloat until rescuers appear. The people who drown are those who frantically wave their arms out of water and lose their self possession.

BULGARS HAVE WON DECISIVE VICTORY Report Ten Thousand Turks Were Killed in a Battle Near Gallipoli. (National News Association) SOLIA, Feb. 14. A decisive defeat has been inflicted upon the Turkish forces at Bulair in the Gallipoli peninsula and at the least 10,000 Turks were killed and wounded, according to an official announcement here today. At the same time the announcement was given out by the Turkish government officials In Constantinople that the Ottoman forces had won at every point. "All Constantinople reports of Turkish victories are false" said this official communication. "The fighting during the past ten days has caused the Turks enormous losses. Already the Bulgarians have buried over 6,000 corpses and the ground between the Bulgarian front and the Turkish

works at Bulair is still covered with Turkish dead. The distance shows that the two armies at Bulear are three

miles long.

"At several points the Turks were

driven back on board their transports. "Bulgarians are successfully continuing the siege at Adrianople and the bombardment of the city is carried on daily. All sorties by the Turks have been repulsed. "Along the Chatalja lines the Bulgarians have held their own against the sorties of the Turks and the Bulgarian lines are unbroken."
