a,GERMANY'S PEACE PROPOSAL.
By Chas, M. Bice, Denver, Colo..
The >peace proposal" emanating;
through Germany's Chancellor, Iiol-
wegg, has not -the true ring, and will
never be the basis, much • less . the
terms upon, 'which host' 'ies shall
cease. Great Britain's reply thereto
was admirably presented by the new
prime ministers Lloyd -;.George, and.
which seems to have the consensus of
the allies opinion of the situation.
In the first place, the proposal for
peace is based on the falsehood that
Germany is victorious so far in the
war, when as a fact, she has lost
.nearly all of her colonial possessions,
has been, beaten on the Most import-
ant front --the western, and has only
possession of a couple of small states
and a small part of France which she
occupied almost without resistance at
the start.
Since that time, she has gained no-
thing important, but has lost strategic
ground, and has about exhausted her
resources of both means and men.
Under these circumstances her peace
proposal have been rightly denounced
by the allies as insincere and put forth
for the sole- purpose of gaining time
to recuperate her almost depleted re-
sources.
The world waited for the word • of
David Lloyd George, as from an orac-
ular divinity of Delphi, hacked by the
dignity and authority of an empire, It.
came forth with no uncertain sound;
and characterized the German tender
of peace as an offensive act, a play to
the neutral galleries, and an effort to
deceive the German people and to
bolster their cause in the Teuton
mind.
Pw We are all thankful that the nations
fighting with Great Britain also reject-
ed the German proposal with equal
emphasis as dishonest, and not even
fit to form the basis for a settlement
for further negotiations.
Mr. George quoted the memorable
utterances of Abraham Lincoln with
fine effect,and cited _ the attitude of
that great patriot who stood so firmly
and grandly' against compromise on
the great essentials of the conflict.
We must never forget that there are
three first=class powers, along with
Britain. in this supreme struggle; and
that any concession from one : would
be extremely dangerous at this time,
from its aptitude of 'playing directly
into the hands of the enemy.
The allies are joined by a solemn
compact respecting proposals and
terms of peace, and it is suspected
that they regard this agreement as be-
ing something. more than a mere
:'scrap of paper."
• Naturally it is not the so-called "hu-
manity" of the war that appeals to
diem first, as it would to neutral na-
tions.
They must stand together or go
down to disaster: ,This they have
agreed to do, so the epochal struggle
will go on, until militarism is crushed
and wipedfrom the face of the earth.

'Unless the present tendency of far-

to be a serious shortage of cattle and.

ATALK ON RHEUMATISM
Telling How to Actually Cure
\This Painful Malady.
This article is for the man or wo-
man . who suffers from rheumatism
who wants to be cured, not merely.
relieved—but actually cured. , The
most the rheumatic sufferer can hope
for in rubbing something on the ten-
der, aching joint, is a little relief. No
lotion or liniment ever did or can
make a cure. The rheumatic poison
is rooted in the blood. Therefore
rheumatism can only be cured when
this poisonous. acid is driven out of
the blood. Any doctor will tell you
this is true. If you want something
that will go right to the root of the
blood take Dr. Williams Pink Pills.
They make new, rich blood which
drives out the poisonous acid and
cures rheumatism to stay cured. The
truth of these statements has been
proved in thousands of cases through-
out Canada, and the following cure is
a striking instance. Mrs. F. M. Simp
son, R.R. No. 1, Blenheim, Ont., says:
"For'a long time I was confined to my
bed, and actually crippled with rheu-
matism, The trouble first located in
my ankle—which was much swollen.
I thought it might,be a sprain, but
the doctor said it was rheumatism
and advised me to go to bed so that'
the trouble would not be aggravated.
I did as directed, but instead of get-
ting better it spread first to my right
knee, then to my left knee, and then
to my arms.The limbs were much
swollen, and if I moved theme caused
me considerable pain. 1 seemed to
get weak in other respects and fell off
in weight from 156 to 110 pounds, I
had no appetite and seemed to • lose
interest in everything. One day
while reading a paper I came across
the case of a rheumatic sufferer, cured
by using Dr. Williams Pink Pills. I
decided to try them and sent for three
boxes. By the time these were gone
I' had certainly begun to improve, and
with help was able to get up. Con-
tinuing the use of the pills, I .was first
able to go about with the use of a
crutch, which later I discarded for a
cane, and then through the use of the
pills I was able to throw aside the
cane as well, and go about as briskly
as I had ever done. I feel that Dr.
Williams Pink Pills have been a
blessing to me, and I strongly re-
commend them to other similar suf-
ferers.",
You can procure these pills through
any dealer in medicine or get them by
mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes
for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams
Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

"IDIOTIC DISTINCTIONS."
War Great Leveller of Class and
Democracy Promoter.
In the proclamation issued by the
German Government the other day,
half appealing and half commanding
the German women of every rank to
enter the public service as actual
workers, there was one curious and
significant phrase, says the 'New
Yorlc Times. As translated, it char-
acterized as "idiotic class distinc-
tions" those lines which, more rigid-
ly in Germany` -than in any other
European country, except perhaps in
Austria, have divided t he population
into little less than separate. species.
If these distinctions have come to
seem "idiotic" to the rulers of Ger-
many, then it would be impossible to
exaggerate the influence • toward
democracy which the war has exert-
ed, for certainly, before the war, the
dividing line between class and
class were held to be natural, immov-
able and commendable -in short,
necessary for the existence of society
as in Germany it ought to be..
There a man or woman was "born"
or was not, and that ended the mat-
ter for him or her, and it also de-
cided- the things he or she couldrand
could not do. All that is ended if
Mass distinctions really were called
idiotic in an official proclamation of
