THE IRON OF LORRAINE.
May. Incite Another Wer ltctwveeri,
France and Germany.
It is unfortunate for the future
peace of Europe that by far the best
iron fields that are accessible either
to France or. to Germany lie exactly
an the present frontier of - the two
countries. A good many Frenchmen
believe that the Germans' hope of
seizing'pernanently the part of these
melds that lies in French Lorraine,
was one of the real causes of the pre-
sent war, and the reason that' last
winter ,determined them to attack at
Verdun, instead of.at some point near-
er Paris. Certainly, thoughtful writ
ers, both French and German; discuss
the subject very frankly, and point
out to their respective countries how
fatal the final surrender of any part
of this disputed territory;would be to
the prosperity of their nation.
In this age, of machinery 'a plalrti
ful supply of both coal and iron is es-
sential
s-senti.l to any country that hopes to
Maintain itself as an industrial 15ower;
and the last ten years have proved
that such a supply is even more neves-
sary in war than in peace. The Ger-
mans admit that without the iron of
the Metz and Thione i11e regions
(which they thriftily took from
France after the war of 1870) they
would have been unable to supply
their armies with the ineredible quan-
tity of guns and ammunition that mod-
ern fighting requires. , France has
kept up only because the British navy
has kept the seas open, for the iaa-
port of iron; its own mines in the ha-
ssins of Briey and Longwy have been
in the hands of the Germans ever
since tha war began.
Now, neither France nor Germany
is rich in iron outside the Lorraine
fields. The year before the' war
France produced nearly 22,000,000
metric tons of iron, and Germany dug
more than 28,500)000 tons from its
mines. If Lorraine were all French,
the figures would have been 43,000,000
tons for France and 7,500,000 tons for
Germany. If Lorraine were all Ger-
man,' that country would have had 48,-
500,000 tons to 2,000,000 tons for
France. The figures explain why the
two nations will fight to exhaustion
rather than surrender any territory
that they now hold in Lorraine.
The question of coal is less critical,
for the coal fields of the Saar -part
of which was French until the fall of
Napoleon.—are farther from the bor-
der, and are not essential to Germany,
although they would 'Il'e very itse:iu1 to
France, which has very, little coal of
its own, and 'Which has, largely for
that reason; seen itself outstripped in
the industrial race by ;Germany.
It begins to. appear, however, that
neither power is likely to gain any
'territorial advantage in Lorraine as a
result of this war. Peace is likely to

justify another war of aggression and

BELGIAN ARMY CAME BACK..
Now Well Equipped, Horse, Foot and
,Artillery.
The Belgian army has been com-
pletely organized, says Henry Wood,
United Press correspondent with Icing
Albert's army. Horse, foot and artil-
lery, the army is now well equipped
and busy holding their, part of the
line from the Hun. The soldiers are
comfortably clothed and well armed,
the cavalry supplied with horses and
the artillery satisfactory. The Bel-
gians are in charge of the inundated
country, _which affords splendid pro-
tection against the enemy and ren-
ders infantry attacks impossible. The
Belgians are separated from the Ger-
mans by a mile of water, including
the River Yser and the Yser Canal.
The Belgian artillery includes mod-
ern guns made in Portugal, contribu-
tions from France and. England, and
guns captured from the Germans in
the original inundation when the
dykes were opened and the Huns had
to hustle out to eseape drowning,
without waiting to try and extricate
the guns, which were recovered by the
Belgians, who drew off the water from
that section when it was convenient.

Just' a.:Little More Rich, Red

The lack of'suflicient. red , health -

naturally it is not noticeable. This is
not a mere claim. Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills have been ;doing this over : and 1
over again in Canada for more than a
quarter of a century. This is why
thousands have always a good word to
say for this great medicine, for in-
stance Mrs. Alex. Gillis, Glenville, N.
S., says: "I cannot praise Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills too highly. They are
really a wonderful medicine. 1 was
very much run down, suffered from
frequent dizzy spells, and had an al-
most constant severe pain in the hack.
My hone work was a sourceof dread,
I felt so weak, and life held but little
enjoyment. Then° I began taking Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills and the result
was almost marvellous. They made
me feel like a new woman and 'fully
restored my. health. I would urge
every weak woman to give these pills
a fair trial."

GERMANY WANTS PEACE.
Extracts From. a Conversation With a
Gerni an Diploma tist,
One niay regard the old war, apirit
as definitely dead in Germany. Every
one wants peace, even the Junker
class. The peace movement is very
strong 'amongthe commercial and
working classes, and at the 'court it-
self every one professes horror at
the continuation of the slaughter. All
ideas of _annexation and i'ndeninity.
have vanished. On the other hand,
no one thinks that the Allies rim im-
pose peace terms on. Germany.
"Life in court .circles is very dull.
The Emperor is constantly at ' the
front, and the Empress—in pleasant
contrast 'to,rnost ladies of the court.
—is' anenthusiastic war worker, If
the neW compulsory civilian service
is :fairly applied to women, -the ladies
of the aristocracy will suffer' Most."
It appears thatno one, not even
his old-time ntilita:y friends, has a
good word to say for. the Crown
Prince. A joke among hostesses,

The Fashions
a
Fashion continues in - ways of
straight and unabated fulness. Skirts
fail in soft, clinging folds, so much
so that the tendency toward. the nar-
rower silhouette becomes very appar-
ent, though we need not yet 'anticip-
ate the very narrow skirt.
It is already rumored, however,.
that skirts for spring will be two and
two . and a half yards wide. But it
is really looking a little too far ahead
to be thinking of `spring styles al-
ready, At present, skirts are still
very ample. Box pleats and side

pleats are very freely used, and this
means that a good deal of material is
used in a dress or skirt. The :pleats
hang in straight lines, generally un -
stitched, while in some cases they are
stitched, as far as the hips and below
that point are pressed into position
The gradual lengthening of skirts
that has come with the vague for
straighter lines is noticeable in many.
dresses; but women, on the whole,
have;,not taken 'readily to the longer•
skirts, and the short skirt for street
costumes is still favored by a great
many. A long street skirt is really
not gracefulin a tailored suit, and
women are not willing to sacrifice be-
coming styles so readily.
In afternoon and evening dresses,
however, the longer skirt is not at all
ungraceful. Some afternoon and
evening dr:esses'show slight variations
from the straight -lines. The Turkish

from Paris as a:departure from the

ing effects.

KEEP LITTLE ONES The Only Reason.
WELL ` IN WINTER
Winter is a dangerous season for
the little ones. The days are so
changeable—one bright, the next cold
and stormy, that the mother is afraid
to take the children out for the fresh
air and exercise they need so much. i
In consequence they are often cooped
up in overheated, , badly 'ventilated,
rooms and are soon seized with colds l
or grippe. What is needed to keep
the little ones .well is Baby's'Own
Tablets. They will regulate the
stomach and bowels and drive out
colds and by their use the baby will
be able to get over the winter season
in perfect safety. The Tablets are
sold by medicine dealers or by mail
at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Wil-
liams' Medicine Co:,' Brockville, Ont.
