Something of the courage and suf fering experienced by the Balkan al lies In the war of the Balkan States with Turkey is to'.d in a communica tion received by Evangelist A. H. Evers, who Is now holding Gospel services in Laurens, from Evangelist J. F. Uuenergardt, of Budapest. Hut? gary, who has made several visits to the war zone. Evangelist Uuenergardt is the president of the Danube Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, Which comprises the kingdoms of Hungary, lloumnnia, Bulgaria, Servla, Croatis, Slovoaia, Bosnia, Hervogovl nia, and Montenegro. He said: "In Sofia, Belgrade, and Nish, I saw a great many of the soldiers and officers, and the wounded and prison ers In the city of Sofia, prisoners from the city of Adrianople, where they had taken thousands of prisoners. The general of the Turkish army was Sukrl-Pasha; the Turks were defeat ed hy the Servians near Bitol. There the Servians took GO.flOO prisoners In the battle of Kumanova. "I at first visited the city of Bel grade, where we have a nice church. In Belgrade in almost every house there was one wounded?some mem ber of the family. In spite of this they seemed to be very jolly and eool becnuse they thought It was a great thing to have this honor. "While I was in Belgrade, the bod ies of generals who had fallen in the battle of Adrianople were brought back. Thousands of people had gath ered at the railroad station and the music they played did not sound .very mournful. It was the jolliest music that I ever heard In my life. When I asked the reason for the oc casion. 1 was told that five officers were about to be burled. "From there I went to the city of Sofia. This city looks more like a camp for soldiers than a city. There arc thousands and thousands of sol diers on all sides. The schools In every available building are occupied by the military. As I passed alone: the main street, I saw the Turkish of ficers and soldiers, who had been tak en prisoners In the coffee house; tak ing life leisurely. They were looked at a great deal, but they did not seem to notice it at all. They were brought there from Adrianople. They got good niual8 and good places to sleep, so they probably enjoyed it more than on the camp and battlefield. "About the suffering?I saw many wounded soldiers with arms shot off, and legs shot off, going on a walking stick as best they could. Some had eyes blown out. it was a torrlblo sight. But they did not seem to com plain. When I talked with some of them through a translator they all seemed to bo very contented. ??During the battle of Adirnnopio, the Bulgarians took the fort of Kork alissa. The Germans who fortified the place said that it would take 'at least throe months to capture it. But the Bulgarians took it in three days. Most of the volunteers of Bulgaria fell at that battle. These volunteers fought like tigers. The fort was sur rounded by steel hedges, but those In front ran up, and threw themselves on the barbed wires, until they had made a way for their companlans to go over their bodies to the fort it self. Thousands perished In that way. "Some of the Bulgarians were so brave that they did not even wait for the Commander. They simply just ran right ahead. The officers could not keep them hack. There were some cowards among the officers. "Once a peasant of the Bulgarians shot one of his officers. They took him before the commander, and he said: " 'Do you know whom you have shot?' " 'I thought It was a Turk.' "'Well, it was not a Turk, it was your officer.' "'His answer was, 'I thou/ it an officer could not run. The Turks run. You re'ad It to us yourself that when we see any Bulgarian run, we should shofot him.' "The commander said, 'You are good soldier. You did your duty. "In thejbattle of Kumanova, I think, one of the regiments was almost total ly destrcyod. When they took the Turkish ?ositlon by storm, thousands and thou ands of them fell. In a n oment all the officers were shot awa: . They had about four hun dred yan s to go yet. and bad already gone foil ? hundred under the fearful fire. Wh fn their officers fell, the pri vate sold lers became perplexed and wavered somewhat. Just then a young .leyv stepped out of the ranks and took} the standard and said: 'Boys, ahead! 'This made them brave and they ' went ahead. Later they asked him why he did so. lie ans wered: 'I <dld not know as that was so brave. I (thought we had 100 yards more, to the enemy, and It was 4o0 back. We vyould get shot either way. So we might as well go forward t>s go back, fit was more advantageous LARGE NUMBER OF RABID DOGS State Hoard of Health Ising Pasteur Treatment In Many Instances over this State, Tho state board of health Is at pres ent administering the pasteur treat ment to 26 patients supposed to be Infected with rabies. These patients reside in town throughout the entire state and their treatment is conducted by local physicians with virus fur nished by the omopS of the state de partment. During the present year 1S7 cases have come under the super vision of the South Carolina health authorities. When it is recalled that only CO per cent of the heads examined reveal the traces of rabies, it will he seen that something like 300 heads of dogs, cats and other animals have been sent to Columbia for examination. Cases Increasing. During the past four years, since the department was established, there has been a steady increase in the num ber of cases reported to the health authorities. This may not necessarily be due to an increased prevalence of the disease, but may result from the fact that the news of free treatment at the hands of the state department has spread into the country districts more each year. Most of the cases brought to the attention of the state health board are reported from the country. The department Is not only fighting the disease by per scribed treatment, but is striving to prevent its spread by Issuing bulletins which describe Its symptoms and thereby enable per sons to spot dogs which are affected. What to Do. The following extra from the phamplet Issued tells what to do when bitten by an animal supposed to be Infected with rabies: "Any wound made by the teeth of an animal should receive Immediate attention, since such wounds are practically always infected wounds. They should be cleaned out and thor oughly disinfected with the usual sur gical solutions. If there is any reason whatever to suspect that the biting animal was suffering with rabies, or if it appeared sick in any way, the wound should be thoroughly cauter ized immediately. The best cauteriz ing agent is nitric acid, wheh should he carried on a swab or glass rod to every recess and part of the wound. Carbolic acid and other acids appear to be less efficient, but are of service A'itate of silver is useless and should not be used. "Tincture of iodine might be used In lieu of anything better. The actual cautery, or red-hot iron, Is not as effective as might be expected, and is very painful and unnecessary de structive. Where the situation of the wound permits, complete excision may be done, followed by cauterization with add. Great care must be ob served when using strong acids or the actual cautery about the face on ac count of tko danger of edema. Chil dren and very nervous subjects should always be anesthetized before cautery is used. "Tho suspected animal should be Immediately secured, if this is at all possible. An animal at largo may sometimes be captured by a lasso, net, 'crocus bag', by turning a box or bar rel over It, or by snaring it by means of a loop of stout cord on the end of a section of gas pipe. Once secured, escape of the animal must be securely guarded against, but the animal should not bo mist routed, teased or deprived of food or water. As soon as the ani mal dies, or the symptoms become un mistakable, the head should be sent to the laboratory at Columbia for ex amination. If the animal remains alive and well for ten days, there is no danger of rabies."?Columbia Hec "ITCIIING ECZEMA DRIVES ME WILD!" ZEMO Stops Itching Instantly Kay a 25c Mettle Today and Prove if.
