Two hundred and seventy were saved. The battleship Regina Mai'ghei'lta was laid down in 1898, and completed in May, 11904. Silo was a vessel. of 18,427 tons, 420 feet long, and had a draught of 27 feet, Heir usual corn- element was 730 men, The battleship carried four 12 -inch, four 8-ineh, twelve 6 -inch guns, twenty 12 -pound» ers, two 1-pownde•,a, two maxims and four torpedo tubes. The Regina Margherita was a sister ship of the Benedetti) Bt'in, which was badly damaged by anexplosion on board in 1915, in which a large num- ber umber • of her crow,; including Itertr Ad- miral De Oervin, were killed. TSE PEACE WE NEED 5O -YEAR PEACE NECESSARY TO WELFARE Ol! EUROP141, French Deputy Says It Will Mice a Genius to Frame a Suit- able Treaty. Under the title of "The Peace 'We Need," Fernand Engerand, Deputy for Calvados, /rites in the Echo de Paris: "The peace which will conclude this unparalleled war will be the greatest event in history, and the treaty which will ratify it must be a masterpiece, "It is necessary that the peace of Europe shall be assured for least half a century. For her it is a question of life -or death. This war has already extinguished three or four times as many lives as all the wars from 1792 to 1815 together. Europe will` come out of it greatly weakened, and will need a long period to recovery --An- other: such bloodletting would spell her doom. Treaty Will be Greatest in History. "A long, a very long, peace is, therefore, necessary, and this must be the main object of the treaty. The problem to be solved is, in fact, Noth- ing less than to rebuild Europe, for to have a good • peace it is neeessary to have a good Europe, that is, a well- balanced Europe. The latter can only be obtained by assuring a species of equality between the great nations and by imposing moderation on the nation which has expanded itself un- duly and aims at universal domina- tion, without, however, destroying it under the pretext of curbing. "To draw up this treaty, which will be the greatest in history, a man of genius will certainly be necessary, for he will have the formidable task, which four centuries have tried to ac- complish, namely, that of adopting the Central Empires into the Euro- pean system. But have we this man among our diplomats? "To establish the needed equilibrium the political factor will not bo de- cisive, as in 1815. The economic fac- tor has equal, if not greater, import- ance. Are -our diplorhats prepared to consider both aspects of the.question, or will it be necessary to call in the magnates of commerce and industry to solve the problem? Some of the latter have already expressed' thein: views on the subject of peace, which is fortunate, since it has shown us whither they would have led us. Nation Should Study Question Now, "In France private interests have for too long a period dominated public interests. After the war we shall know to what extremes this political regime has brought our country. Once and for all, private interests must be subordinated to those of the public in France. It will not be possible for the Governments to issue peace de- cisions without the consent of the people, who will demand to know and must be informed. "In France the Government was afraid of a five -letterer? word, 'peace,' The word•has been uttered and we have seen the effect it produced. Now it is permitted to discuss the topic and it is well, for at the front as well as behind the people were fearing that those, on whom the duty would fall to make peace might be taken by surprise by the event and consent to a garbled peace. "Public opinion must study this question from now on, and the will of the nation must find its expression. Some maintain that ib la too early and that we should wait fee victory. No; then it will, indeed, be too late. "Nothing during this war has ttirn- etl ` olt as we expected. Who knows whether peace will not come more ciuieldy than we suppose? De not let us be token by surprise by peace as we were by, war." One-fifth of the earth's surface be: longs to the British Empire. Clinton rkl S Record CLINTON, ONTARIO.

HALL, I'a'opriotorr 'I'IHE ROA'DMAK.ER, Rinnble Service Cheerfully Done for 'King alad Country.. Dr, Wilfrid T. Grenf ell, of Labrador, tells this fine incident of his work as a surgeon at ,the Front: "A particularly' bright young sol- dier cane into our hospital in France one day," he writes in , the Boston Congregationalist. "He was shot through the spine and for many days suffered much agony. The worst danl- ger was over, and I was sitting on his bed talking to,him, "'Where is your home?' I asked. "'In Argentina; he .replied. "'Argentina? In South America? What brought you over here?' "'WeIl, Doctor, I was good and strong, and I wanted to do my bit.' "'Was work scarce when you left?' I continued, "'Not much. That's the country to live in,' he answered, smiling at the very thought of it. "Sad business, getting hit 'so soon. It will be a long time before you'll be able to get about again, I'm afraid.' "'Don't worry any about that,' was his immediate reply; 'I'm glad I had the chance.' "As I Looked through his smiling eyes into his soul I realized that only lately I had seen men seeking this man's netts inalienable possession among dollars acid cents, and never finding it because they sought amiss. "'Where were you, and What were you doing when you got hit?' I asked a 'common' soldier one day in our ward. 'Were you charging the en- emy?' -" `No such luck, Doctor. I was working on a road detail when a "Jack Johnson" came along, and a bit of the nose found me.' "It was a terrible wound. I had won- dered if he would ever see England and home again. Among the convoy that brought him, he had been a ly- ing -down case. A scarlet edged tag, pinned on his breast as he lay on the stretcher, had signified that he was among the dangerously wounded. He 'laid Qtly been one of the host of soil - soaked Tommies, whose work in mud up to his knees repairing the 'pave' of the road to the trenches in the dreary flats of Flanders must have appeared inglorious enough. And now he was knocked out for good, "It seemed odd that a man like that could be so cheerful and contented. This, however, anti his anxiety for `the other chaps,' had made him quite a favorite, and Iris bed a popular cor- ner m the ward. • "'Making roads through the mud wasn't the kind of job you were think- ing of when you joined the Colors, was it?' I asked him one clay. "'Not exactly. But it was good to see the ammunition and the grub go by over them to the other chaps. You bet we kept the road good almost to the front trench. I'll never forget seeing a battery of our artillery gal- lop by once when there was some strafing going on. If it hadn't boon for our road maybe them Germans would have got through.' Tho pleas- ure of that humble service is going to survive all the horrors of cold and wet and misery, yes, and life itself." GERMANY WANTS PEACE. Etracts Froin a Conversation With a German Diplomatist. One may regard the old war spirit as definitely dead in Germany. Every one wants peace, even the Junker class. The .peace movement is very strong among the 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 indemnity have vanished. On the other hand, no one thinks that the Allies can im- pose peace terms on Germany. "Life • in court circles Is very dull, The Emperor is constantly at the front, avid the Empress—in pleasant contrast to nlost.ladies of .the court —is an entllttsiattic tiv'itr worker. If the new compulsory civilian service is fairly applied to women, the Indies of the aristocracy will suffer me=t;" It appears that no one, not even his old-time military friends, has 11 good word to say for the Cro" n Prince.

Conflict Has Proved There Are Limits ' to Any "Knock -out Strategy," The London Times says: Prof. Meinecke of Freiburg University, the distinguished historian, contributed to the Frankfurter Zeitung recently the most remarkable article on the history of the war which has appeared in any German newspaper. Being compelled to lie about the origin of the war, German writers generally have had to lie about all inconvenient events during the war. Prof. Meinecke, on the other hand, adopts the convenient formula that it was only- "in a political sense" that Germany "began the war as a defen- sive war," while in a military sense it was distinctly a knockout war (Niederwerfungskreig). Thus, hap- pier than other Ger/,an writers, he is able to tell the truth about the Battle of the Marne and admit that the bat- tle for Verdun was a failure. First Phase of War. Prof. Meinecke has the courage to describe the first phase of the war as follows: "Our first object was to overthrow France rapidly and compel her to make peace. If we succeeded we would then turn quickly and carry out the same military idea against Rus- sia, with the best prospects of suc- cess. Then we would conclude a final peace with England, who would have been disarmed by the Continent. This peace would have had to assume the character of a compromise, since we did not hope to overthrow England's naval supremacy. "This whole programme, brilliantly begun, collapsed at the gates of Pari -s and the Battle of the Martie. This battle was not a tactical victory, but a great strategical success for the French. Perhaps our programme would not have collapsed if we had carried through our original strate- gical idea with perfect strictness, keeping the Marne forces strictly to- gether and for a time abandoning East Prussia." Prof. Meinecke sketches subsequent events much as follows: The Germans took to trench warfare and the enemy did likewise. The Germans tried but failed to break through at the Yser and Bzurka-Bawka, and the French tried but failed to break through Champagne. The German people be- gan to argue that the war had be- come a war of attrition. Then the Germans succeeded in breaking through Galicia, but ultimately they had to settle again in defensive posi- tions. The British and, French then tried, but failed again, to break through in the west, and the battles of Loos and Champagne followed. Battle of Verdun. Prof. Meinecke then gives the fol- lowing accormt of the battles of Ver- dun and the Somme: "An argument used a year ago was that a decision must be sought, not in the tangible, distant East, but in the concentrated West—the nerve centre of the enemy's forces. Tine decision, however, 'must not lie a decision in the old sellae that eve should break through a particularly critical posi- tion, destroy one of the most import - lint of the french fortresses anti prove 1e the FI'ench that they could no longer win. That was the origin of the undertaking against Verdun, This thee a new politico -military idea led only to a heroic episode; but, meanwhile, our enemies pulled them- selves together ter still more gigantic arhlevem este. England learned the use of universal military service and the conversion o£ industry for the production of a mighty supply of arms and ammunition. At the same time she leaned upon the industrial strength of America, so, while Japan helped, she was able to equip the new Russian Formations, the apparatus which we had smashed the year' be- fore. "Thus in June and July; 19i6, it carte the great double offensive of our enemies, East mei West, The re- sult was Out we load to interrupt ope'ations ttt Vet'dtm, The enemy's offensive also achieved partial sue - ones, especially in the • least, al- though the real object—to break • il1roxlFb and ea up our linos --001811 not be achieved. nit Was due to the fact that in the interval wo stili further developed the possibilities of trench warfare," Results Cil Soonone Alight' Peril, Mei11001te says the Battle of the Somme led e the conviction in Ger'nnanyi that it was no longer pos- slble to arrive at 11 military deeis0011 el a full peace -compelling,' sense.. So he :describes the German peace .over- turea as .arising naturally from the idea that the sacrifices which would be demanded by a continuation off the war would no longer bear any rela- tion to military results, and it would be statesmaltlilco, intelligent and wise to abaneen the intention of deetrue- tion and seek a reasonable compro- mise. As regards the teal guarantees Which Germany professes to require, slabstanees, Get it today, be.malces two final observations: One --..__.. is -that Germany has taught all the small Powers of Europe that they are risking their lives if "they teach the electric wire which protects Central Europe." The other is that the war has proved there are limits to the pos- sibilities of "knockout strategy in 1 a war between groat Powers." Conse- quently a knockout policy aimed at procuring fundamental revolutions in the relations of European Powers does not pay, A despatch from London says.:- Thus, according to the professor, Great Britain's loan of victory was the motto of the future will be "not successfully • launched on Friday. overthrow but balance" Stimulated by the speech of Premier EVERYBODY NEEDS PURE, RICH BLOOD Pure blood enables the stomach, liven' and other digestive 0108115 to do their work properly, Without it they are sluggish, More is loss of alitletitea sometimes faintness, a deranged state of the intestines, end, in general, all Oro symptoms of dyspepsia, Pure bleed is resper•ed by every organ of the body for the proper per- formance of its functions, Hood's Sarsaparilla mates pure blood, and this is why it is so 0110- 0essfnl in Lite treatment of 00 many diseases and ailments, .
