Bice, Denver, Colo, fire have in the United States what is called a "peace league," which has been putting forth every possible ef- fort to stop the great war which is not only beggaring Europe, but is fast draining the world's resources into its insatiable maw. Recently the German Chancellor, von B. iIoilweg, made a speech in the Reichstag, cautiously, but encourag- ingly, approving the general principle of the league to enforce peace, It had already been approved, with caution, by Sir Edward Grey, but more thor- oughly, by Lord 13rycc, We' have reason, therefore, to con- gratulate ourselves upon the recep- tion accorded to the proposal by the two chief combatants in the present Struggle. We :reed not inquire into the mo- tives that may have 'actuated this fa- vorable consideration. It is sufficient to know they have done so and have gone on record to that effect, That these great diplomatists see in each other grounds for distrust for the motives of the other, is only na- tural. The atmosphere of enmity', and we may say, suspicion, hangs too heavily over Europe to permit at un- preju!lieed approach to the ultimate issue of peace; but there is this to hearten all who hope far a happier so- lution of the problem, that in both London and Berlin the outcome of the war is now being discussed in world terms instead of terms of purely na- tional or racial interest. This of itself is a notable mark of progress towards a more rational point of view, for it implies the relin- quishment of Germany's "world power" foolishness. When peace' is considered in the light of the world's welfare, rather than as an opportun- ity for extending frontiers, there is ground for hope that sanity is begin- ning to assert itself. Germany, we all know, has been exasperatingly slow in coming to this, nor does she now assume it with such indications of whole-heartedriesa as might be wished; but that she has come to it at all is certainly very en- couraging, as it shows that neutral opinion is having its effect.. Chastened and "cuffed" for her high ambitions with which she boast- ingly threw down, the gauntlet to Europe in the start, she is now ready to listen to wisdom. But it should not be assumed that because of the utterances of these two leading men, that the war is to cease. Both sides are convinced that the war must he waged to the bitter end, the t Entente powers expect victory, grid are preparing to join with the neutral world in preserving peace for the fu- ture, at all hazards; while the Central Powers, still professing a hope of vic- tory, are preparing to join with the neutral world in preserving peace against what they deem British ag- gressions. Each side regards the other as a menace that must be sup- pressed, and, of course, as long as that feeling exists, the war will eon - Mr. Isaac Ward, well known at 'kept far from the door.

There's a Reason " tinue until one er the other is con- suered. It is extremely important' that the powers on both sides have been brought to recognize the justice of the neutral proposals, and have re- linquished the ambition of extending their borders. • ROUSES FOR SOLDIERS.

The houses which the C.P.R. is building in the west fox the returned soldiers will cost them about $1,000 each, with out -offices, They will con- sist of four rooms each two bed- rooms, dining room and kitchen. Each farm will consist of 160 acres and there will be 80 additional acres which may be availeed of in the course of time, and as the settler concludes that he can work it. The C.P,R. has sev- eral designs for homes which will be submitted to the intending settlers. These offer a variety of design to suit different tastes and different pockets, it may be said. The settler can chooses a house which will cost him $2,000 but the paymer;ts will be made ex- ceedingly easy.

A Home ,Table THE ONLY WAY TO CURE RHEUMATISM 11iu.st Be Treated Through the Blood and the Poisonous Acid Driven Out,. The twinges and tortures of rheu- matism are not due to cold, damp weather as so many people suppose. Rheumatism comes from poisonous acid in the blood. This is a medical truth that every rheumatic sufferer should realize. There is only one way to cure rheumatism—it must be treat- ed through the blood. All the lini- ments and rubbing and so-called elec- tric treatment in the world will not cure rheumatism, and the sufferer who tries them is not only wasting money, but is allowing the trouble to become more firmly rooted in the sys- tem andharder to euro when the pro- per remedy is tried. Dr. Williams Pink Pills have had remarkable success in curb) rheumatism because they go right to the root of the trouble in the blood, driving out the poisonous acid, releasing the stiffened joints, clearing away the torturing pains, and giving the victim renewed health and ease. Mr. Vincent Brow, Havre Boucher, N. S., says: "For two years I was an al- most constant sufferer from rheuma- tism, the trouble being so bad at times that I could scarcely get about. The trouble seemed to bring with it. anaemia, and altogether I was in a very bad condition. I used doctor's medicine for almost a year without re- lief. Then on the advice of a friend I decided to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills. I think I took altogether about a dozen, boxes, with the result that I am again enjoying perfect health." You can get these pills through any medicine dealer or by mail, postpaid, at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams Medi- cine Co„ Brockville, Ont. FORCE KAISER TO ASK PEACE. Big German Business Interests to Force Issue, Say Financiers. That the Kaiser will be forced to seek peace in 1917 is the opinion ex- pressed in well -posted French 'circles, writes a Paris correspondent. By next summer the Entente allies will have reached the summit of their of- fensive capacity, and Britain will have blossomed to her full-strength in men, guns, shells.,• and all. the appur- tenances of war. Germany attaches great importance to the threatened loss of the Balkans, and is doing her utmost to avert it. Another year of the war can bring Germany nothing more than a more or less successful resistance, with nothing ahead but a war of patience; with the scales heavily weighted against her because of the sea blockade. The opinion is expressed in high financial circles that the bigbusiness interests of Germany would no longer tolerate such It situ- ation, and anirresistible movement, would be launched ,against allowing the military party to attempt to re- sist the process of military and:, economical exhaustion. The allied Somme offensive will continue through the winter,,;pinning' to Picardyas many German reserve divisions as possible, and seeking to deprive Hindenburg of the offensive on any other - front. Even should Germany be able to send enough men to the, west to man efficiently the whole line from the sea to Switzer- and, she will be forced to a big re- treat from the huge Noyon salient once the allied armies seriously men- ace St. Quentin and Cambrai, and they are. beading that way now, and going strong.

Last year 271 in -patients were treat- ed for deformities, such as club feet, bow-legs, knock-knees, Pott's disease of the spinae, lateral ourvature aP tht spine, dislocations, infantile paralysis tubercular disease of knee, hip, ankle Is the Hospital far Sick Children to take dollars out of your pocket, or is death to take babies out of their aradiest That is the question. One gift more in the Iitospltars tree.- sury Maps one coffin,. less is the !LITTLE WHITE HEARSE. The Hospital must be digging up help for Iittle children from the soil of human kindness, or sextonswill be digging graves for little children in the soil ofan ma cemetery. The Hspital for Sick Cildren can only volunteer its mercy in so far as you friends of little children volunteer I your money for service in the Hos- pital's never-ending battle for the lives of the little ones. , Let your money fight in the trenches of some mother's trouble and rescue some little child from the dugout of pain, disease and death. Can the Hospital leave children to die because the fathers of those chil- dren have left home to fight for lib. erty on the British battle line, and can unless Hospital help the children of Can- ada's soldiers with its care lless you help the Hospital with your cash? You have money enough to help every other war fund without keeping back a dollar from the Hospital's war fund—the fund that helps the Hospital save the lives of little children, includ- ing the soldiers' little children. Do not let the little children pay, in the loss' of the Hospital's care, the con- tribution that should be given and must be given to the war funds. Your phoney can send a message of cheer to some father in the trenches— yes, send that message from, the cot where the Hospital nurses some little child back to .life, the child of the father who is fighting your battle in the trenches.l: Every doar kept from the Hos. pital's power to serve the little chil" dren is a weight added to the burdens and a grief added to the sorrows of this war. You 'ban bear to have your pocket emptied of a little money easier than some mother can bear to have her home emptied of a little child.

Poor People Win Get Laundry Done at Public Places, Because the price of soaps and such necessities for washing as s"arc bo likein- creased rax and thehas creased in Russia beyond the reach of the poor people, it is proposed to establish in Vilna a number of "con- mercial laundries" for patronage by those who cannot afford to pay dearly for cleanliness. Just how much the local inhabitants have been able to do for themselves, through the agency of 25 "Achieser societies" or institutions of brotherly help, is in- dicated by the six months' report of the main organization just issued. According to this report, the 20 branch societies in all the portions of Vilna took in during the past half- year just over $15,000 and expended a little more than $16,000 in helping a total of 50,000 persons.

A campaign surpassing in inven- tion and resource any that went be- fore was that waged by the Turks against Constantinople in 1452-3, Its culmination not only brought the Turk into Europe, but it brought into war- fare the use of artillery as a means of seducing fortified cities. Oddly, then as in the present great war, it was German skill in the handling of can- non that aided the Turks. One Urban, a Wallaehian reared in Germany, who had seen service in the armies of German, Hungarian, and Greek before he attached him- self to the Sultan's forces, devised the cannon that for fifty days bat- tered the walls of the eastern cap- ital of the Roman Empire. On the recommendation of Urban, the Sul- tan, before he began his campaign against Constantinople, erected a foundry, and in it was cast a gun with a mouth exceeding two and a half feet in diameter and capable of projecting to the distance of about a mile a missile of six hundred pounds in weight. Other guns of a smaller calibre were constructed un- der the supervision of Urban, FOR YOUR NERVES' SAKE When they jump and throb, you can quiet :and Booth them with Trude Mart Anaigic Petroleum Trig A coml./inadon of the remedies your doctorprescribes and pure "Vaseline."
