'- We will make here a suggestion which furnishes us a method to pre- vent the appearance of the rich, and avert the consequent result of the difference between rich and poor. The suggestion consists of the entire disuse of the money over the world, in order to give the struggle for exist- ence a check, to snake way with the difference of rich and poor, and thus to promote peace and equality in the public life of mankind. It is th.rough the medium of the money that wealth is accumulated, and the accumulation entails the dif- ference of rich and poor, with its resultant struggle for existence. This state of things is most un- desirable. The end of mankind is not to be proud of individual talent or ability, but to co -enjoy the peace in the world, just as in a fancily, and any cause which brings about any inequality in public life must be radi- cally eliminated. It is for this reason that we dare to suggest the disuse of the money to prevent the differ- ence of rich and poor. What crafty fellow ever introduced the money for use in human life? Of course, nationalism of various valu- ables, such as gold, silver, jewels, etc., shall be implied in the disuse of the money and their ownership by individuals be prohibited. Such valu- ables retain their values only when they are used as a means of inequal- ity, but will be nothing more than these pebbles on, the road when equality is to be prevalent. They may have some value in giving us a good feeling on account of their ele- gance, then they may be used, under public ownership, for the decoration of shrines, temples, churches, halls and many other like buildings to the common pleasure of the public at large. Most complicated troubles may arise from the adjustment of proper- ties after the enforcement of the dis- use of the money. With the proposed suggestion mines, railroads, ships, electric and gas plants, waterworks, and many other properties essential to the common interest of a nation shall be transferred to the national ownership, not to say of the nation- alization of land, and they shall be equally compensated for, as for the confiscation of money and several. bonds, with a kind of registration bond newly issued for the purpose, which should have the characteristic of temporary transitional means un- til an improved feature makes its appearance in a new society. In other regards individuals may be permitted to retain their own pro- perty, personal and real, and main- tain their professions or occupations. Transactions shall be carried on. by the exchange of kind in kind, or bar- ter. But as barter is too inconven- ient to be enforced, a ticket system may be taken for the remedy of this defect. As has been stated, our ideal disuse of the money does not admit any accumulation of wealth, and so the tickets shall be given each a cer- tain period of time, say ten, twenty, thirty years or more, during which they can be in use, and after which their circulation ceases. When this is accomplished, there can be no more complaints, no more dissatisfactions, no more 'contradic- tions, and no more misunderstand- ings, and the world will be reorganiz- ed into a paradise of peace.—Seijiro Bawashima in Dal Nippon. Poetic justice. There is a singular appropriateness in the fact that the death sentence of German militarism should have been signed at Senlis. To this quiet little town, sleeping behind its old ramparts on the banks of the tiny Nonette, Kluck came in September, 2914. The rear guard of the retreat- ing French fired upon his troops, and, in accordance with the German cus- tom, the ,Mayor of Senlis was mur- dered in a nearby field, while the city was sacked and burned. In the central square, the old houses stand unroofed and blackened. Even the trees are slashed, and the noble cathedral escaped destruction only throngh the courageous intercession. of :z brave priest. In all of Hun -wasted France I saW no sadder town than Senlis. Nowhere did German brutality and wanton- 'iess seem more stupid or more sense- less. It was a relief to leave it for the quiet park above the river, where one could look eastward and south- ward along the roads Kluck's armies followed — the white straight roads that lead to the Marne. And Senlis was but one of so many French cities thus wickedly ravaged. it was to me, therefore, a pleasing thing to think of the German mis- sion, with its general and its bril- liant staff officers, coming under a fiat, of truce down the Guise Road, by rhiclt invading armies had march- ed toward Paris, four years ago. They came to poor, wasted Senlis, the nearest point to the capital that Ger- man armies reached in 1914, and there signed their names to a docu- ment which will for all time record the utter and immeasurable failure of German arms, of German terrible- ness, of the spirit which•was express- ed so brutally at Senlis: American Review of Reviews. The Japanese Empire. An official census of the Japanese empire will be taken two years Itenn.ee, but according to statistics re- cently published the population of Japan proper on Dec. 31, 1917, was 57,998,373, distributed among 10,- 241,851 dwellings, or 5.7 per cent. habitation.

SIR HERBERT .HOLT TELLS WHY THRIFT IS NECESSARY TO -DAY' Sir Herbert Holt, president of the Royal Bank has heartily end- orsed the War Savings Stainpcam paign, stating, in addition, there- asons why thrift was especially ne- cessary at the present time, he said recently ;— "As all our trade enterprises both at home and abroad must be fin. - Miami by Canadian capital, their success will be measured by the ex tent of our national capacity • for self-denial. To encourage the habit of thrift among all classes, the Government has inaugurated a War Savings Stamp campaign similar to that which proved so po pular in Great Britian and the Un- ited States. It is necessary to en- large do the value of individual and national thritf. In England the War Savings Committee have recently announced that the coun- try will be continued as a. per- manent part of the national mach- finery. The development of the habit of saving in England has met 1 with marked results, the number of holders of Government securit- I ices increasing from 315,600 at, this l beginning of the war to over 17,000 000 to -days. The success of the seem to justify its permanent ret - movement in England would I elntion in this country. FARM FOR SALE 150 -acre farm, consisting of lot 5, a(nd e -hof. lot 6, con. 9, Hay.

STONE & WELLINGTON (Established 18311 TORONTO — ON.T LADIESI SECIF FO DAII[N GRAY Affl Bring Back its Color and Lustre with Grandma's Sage Tea Recipe. Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and lux- uriant. Mixing the Sage sea and SuI- phur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready -to -use preparation improved by the addition of other ingredients a large bottle, at little cost, at drug stores, known as "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound," thus avoiding a lot of muss. While gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractiveness. BY darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because it does it so natural- ly, so evenly, You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared. After another application or two your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and .luxuriant and you appear years younger. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is a delightful toilet requi- site. .It is not intended for the Cure, ratgltation Or prevention oi' disease.

Agent for Huron & Erie Mortgage Corporation and Canada Trust Co Herald Office, Zurich. to ning l FH S �� is an important hour for Canada. The nation is entering on a new era. It is passing from c gar to peace. Let us start this new era right. There are thousands of soldiers returning from over- seas. The Government is doing all in its power to get these men back to civil life. It is giving a War Service Gratuity} --more than any other nation—to keep the soldier going till he gets a job. It rues hi»m a pension --where his usefulness is impaired by his service. It teaches a mann a new trade when his service unfits him for his former trade. It gives him free medical treatment when ill- ness recurs, and supplies free artificial limbs and surgical appliances. It is bringing back to Canada at the public expense the soldiers' dependents now overseas. But the Government, how- ever willing, cannot provide the personal touch needed in this work of repatriation. That must be given by the people themselves. The hien who went from these parts to fight in Pland- ers deserve a real welcome home --.tile bet we can give. III Illl)S[ towns coniIlllttees of citizens have already been organized to sheet the soldiers and their dependents at the Station, to provide slot meals, supply automobiles, afford temporary ac colllmodation when necessary. In addition, many other towns are organizing social gatherings to give public wel- come to returned men after they have been home a few days. ,The After he has rested, the soldier must be provided with an opportunity for employ- ment. In towns of 10,000 population, Public Employ - Men t• F rtfccs have hem estab- lished to 11e11) soldiers, as well as war -workers, secure good jobs quickly. Where these exist, citizens should co-oper- ate, Where they do not exist, the citizens themselves should help put the soldier in touch with employment. * * The fighting job is done. It has cost many a heart -burn- ing, But it has been well done. The least we can do is to show our appreciation 111 no uncertain manner. Don't let the welcome die away with the cheers. epatriation o rnittee OTTAWA
