PASSING -OF THE HOUSE OF couTTs With the approaching merger of the historic English banking -house of Messrs. Coutts and Co. with the Na- tional Provincial and Union Bank of England disappears the name, of an institution which for more than two centuries has ; stood foremost in in- ternational finance. For, directly or indirectly, the house of Coutts has been associated in that period with every event which affected the wel- fare of Europe and her peoples. From the days of the Georges, Coutts and Co: have been bankers to the royal family of England and to most of the . nobility. And unfit 1904, when they moved to new quarters/ their dingy -old brick house in the Strand,near Norfolk Street, was one of the Iandmarks for sight- -seers from the United States. The family of Coutts, stretching back in unbroken sequence for 500 years, is of ancient Scottish stock, which up to. the middle of the Sev- enteenth century had been of .Au- -chinotouI, until ' one of its members in 1650 started business as a note broker and exchanger banker at MEDICAL DR.

It was in 1690 Ithat John Camp- bell, born in Auchintoul was carry- ing on a small banking .business at. the sign of the Three Crowns. He built the house which was to remain the headquarters • of the firm for 214 years. Upon his death in 1712 his partner, George Middleton, assumed the management of the business; aid- ed by the younger Campbells, until, in 1742, they were joined by James Coutts, son of John Coutts, a financier who had attained the position of Lord Provost of Edinburgh. James Coutts had already estab- lished a London branch of the Edin- burgh business in Middleton, in 1747. With the retirement of . the last of the .Campbells in 1760, James Coutts became sole manager and took into partnership his younger brother, Thomas, greatest in a long line of brilliant financiers, and known to all of his time as the "shabby little elan in the threadbare suit." It was with Thomas that the real eventful history of the bank begins. Few men have enjoyed the un- broken si*cess of Thornas Coutts, or worked harder. to attain it. Few men possessed. as he did the mag- netic quality which wins friendship alike in high , and low places. Yet no man cared less for the opinion or prejudices of society, which while holding up its hands in horror at his habits of dress and his manner, did not disdain to resort to his coffers, when occasion required. His eccentricitiesof dress and man- ner—always a gentleman's manner, however—have been the subject of innumerable stories. In the height of his power, when he had • become financial agent or almoner to half of fashionable Lon- don, he wasthe guest of the Prince of Wales, -afterward George IV., " at the Pavilion Brighton. Early one summer morning Thomas Coutts, in his, rustybrown suit, with stockings that hung loosely around his legs, took his seat according to his custom on a bench in the little park outside the pavilion. A. benevolent old lady -out for her morning walk, noticed a seemingly miserably poor old man and her heart was touched. "My dear man," she said, "you have plainly seen better,. days. Pray accept this trifle for a breakfast." And she handed him a note for ten shillings on his own bank. Then she added, "I will see you here again to -day and shall raise a subscription for you among my friends." Mr. Coutts, with a courtly bow, thanked his benefactress and assur- ed her that he would certainly be oe hand by the sante bench at din- ner time. Then he returned to the . pavilion, but in the course of the dinner man- aged to slip away and get back to the park bench. Presently the old lady appeared a- gain, this time accompanied by a party of friends. "There he is," she said. "There is the poor old fellow for whom I asked your aid." "That old man," answered one of her guests. "Why, he is Mr. —" But before he could utter the name the Prince of Wales came out of the pavilion and slapping Coutts on the back, said: 'Tom Coutts, you old mole, we've fined you a bottle for leaving your glass." Mr. Coutts's benefactrees was over- whelmed with embarrassment. But her equilibrium was restored when, two days later, she received by mes- i anger a parcel containing a superb diamond necklace, with this, little note: "A tribute of remembrance to the sweet and gracious lady who be- friended a poor old man." At a dinner party one night he overheard a nobleman of eminence- and nminenceand high personal character telling of his failure in trying to obtain an advance of $150,000 from a banker, the money being needed to tide him over a temporary embarrassment. Next day Coutts called upon the nobleman at the latter's house . and TRE HURON EXPOSITOR saidI "I overheard by ' accident your story of the difficulty in respect of the advance you sought from Messrs. If you will permit me, shall be happy to advance the sum you need on your note of hand. With these words Coutts handed oyer the money. The nobleman told that story everywhere, and within a year the names of royalty and of one half the names in the peerage were on the - books of the bank. Coutts was already the richest man in England and the confidant of monarchs and statesmen, when, ig- noring the palpable advance of the, many titled ladies who would have been willing to share his fortune, he suddenly married Elizabeth Starky, a handsome rustic girl who had been housemaid in his brother's home, his only expressed reason being that he had seen her grow up from 'childhood and she was sensible and good as well -as beautiful. And he never had reason to regret his choice. In the course of a long married life, during which she won the love and respect of all with whom she came in contact, she bore him three daughters. • The eldest became the wife of an Earl, the se- cond, Frances, became Marchioness of Bute, and the • youngest, Sophie, was married to Sir Francis Burdett, famous in the politics of the day as, one of the bitterest and most dan- gerous opponent of- the younger Pitt, and father of the lady who; as the Baroness Burdett Coutts, figured i as• the great philanthropist of the mid-Victorian era. But .Thomas Coutts, who, in his rustysuit, white tie and napless hat, might have been taken for a butler out of place, • was destined in his 62nd year, while his wife, an in- valid, lay moribund, to give society another shock by his association with the actress, Harriet Mellon. Deprived of the society of his wife, Coutts proceeded to enjoy life in his own diversified way. He was fond of the theatre and of the ladies who adorned it. At his wife's death he married Harriet Mellon, and to her he bequeathed the whole of his for- tune of $4,500,000, . in the '`full 'as- surance that she would dispose of it with wisdom, justice and generosity." Five years later h's widow was married to the ninth Duke of St. Albans. Ea that Thomas Coutts' confidence in her innate nobility of character was not mnisplacd was shown when, on her death - mon 1837, ten years later, -she made the daugh- ter of Sir Francis Burdett her sole heiress, thus giving back to the Coutts'" family the fortune she had recieived from it. ow ow mom, XS eirf ZS' .437 Aram ow •'K t 1 `'1"7: 4 tly Sole by leading M2rCliail S throughout C.nodd ro #f) WP/TE ILLUSTRATED RA`�ED C AT Al.©t iiet,E IRIGGS SEEa't?.

It contributes little to the discussion, "Who won the war?" •and is probably falsfiies the 'record when it undertakes to show what or who lost it. Needless to say,' the blame is not assumed by Luden- dorff. It was not the bad general- ship of the German leaders, nor the loss of fighting spirit of the German soldiers, nor even the "desertion" of the allies, serious though these de- fections were. The blame for losing the war Ludendorff puts upon the German people at home, and parti- cularly on their politicians. He hardly goes the length of asserting Germany would have won the struggle but he maintains that it could have been continued had the morale of the civilian population not been all shot to pieces. Probably many of us recall in the earlier stages of the, struggle and at. intervals thereafter looking at pic- tures of Hindenburg and reluctant- ly admitting mentally that he looked more like a great general than many of our own. In fact the picture was almost too perfect, and at one time ru- mor ran that Hindenburg was a legen- dary character, a myth summoned from Valhalla, something like the fam- ous angels at Mons. Ludendorff's book proves that the idea was not so far from the truth. Hindenburg was a figurehead, he was hauled out of his obscurity when the struggle began be- cause he looked the part. His impos- ing appearance and his sounding name had a tremendous influence upon the Germane people. They looked at Hin- denburg as a teri!frc figure of doom and destiny. They erected huge mon- uments in his honor and drove nails in them to signify their faith in him. His appearance was more strength- ening to the German people than were the utterances of the Kaiser. Hindenburg was an officer on the re- tired list when the war broke out, and whoever exhumed him showed a per- fect understanding of German; psycho- logy. He had the additional advan- tage of being an aristocrat. Luden- dorff, by all means the finest brain in the German high command, labored under the disadvantage of being a commoner, but his gifts as a highly trained general staff officer were known and in the end Berlin admitted them, though always making him sub- ordinate, in appearance to Hindenburg The latter on the other hand, had en- ough intelligence to realize that his repudiation depended on Ludendorff who testifies perhaps ironically, that he never made a suggestion that Hin- 'denburg did not approve. It is not on record that Hindenburg ever made any suggestions en his own account. Lud- endorff appears to have been disliked by the 'Kaiser. He himself explains this on the ground that he was no courtier. At -any rate the Kaiser would not have given. Ludendorff som- mand in the East when the war broke out. He knew or his experts knew, that Hindenburg was not capable of h campaign against carrying out the cant p gn ga nst Russia. So Ludendorff was sent as his chief of staff. There was an understanding be- tween the two or may have been an instruction from that every order presented for Hindenburg's signature should first of all be signed by Lud- Canton, Ohio. --"I suffered from a female trouble which caused me much suffering, and two 'doctors decided that I would have to gothrough an 'operation before I could get well. • "Mymother, wlio bad been helped by Lydia B.

On one occasion through an error Hindenburg signed an order first and a few copies got out, which should now be worth a considerable sump be- cause of their rarity. It is plain en- ough that Ludendorff was hampered by the jeaslously of the Gen- eral Staff' on more than , once occa- sion and that it refused to swiftly reward him for his brilliant ex- ploit at Tanneberg. The war might have been more costly to the Allies -if from the first he had had the su- preme command. ' Falkenhayn dislik- ed him, and it was not until Verdun had destroyed Falkenhayn's reputa- tion as a soldier that Ludendorff, in spite of jealousies, was given author- ity commensurate with • his --abilities. He speaks well of Mackensen and with contempt of Moltke, whom he accuses of being a pacifist. He had no -use for. Bethmann-Hollweg, whom he eventually overthrew, but he bad no greater luck with.' the Chancellor's successors. - Speaking of the U-boat cam- paign, which Bethmann resisted for a> long time, though *Strongly urged by that bearded pirate von Tirpitz, the soldier says that at first he op- posed it. The records show that in the end he advised in its favor and forced the Chancellor into accept- ing. it. The possibility that it might =bring the United States into the war was discussed, but tit was calculated -that bef re the United States could get any great force overseas the war would be won. American r aders or the boob will be enraged to find the German general speaking so slight- ingly about the American influence inion the war. It figured in Luden- dorff's mind about as prominently and decisively as ' Paraguay. He says that the only help the American army gave was to take over quiet sec- tions of the British and French lines and thus release these troops for the real work. Foch's offensive of July LOSS OF STRENGTH THROUGH INDIGESTION The Stomach Can Only Do Its Work When the Blood is Rich and Red. Indigestion means loss as well as suffering to many people. Loss of strength, Ioss of time and loss of money follows indigestion and debil- ty continues as long as the indiges- tion remains. Workers suffer from indigestion because their hours are long, and often they cannot 'give pro- per time to meals. Then the appe- tite becomes fickle, digestion be- comes feeble and the blood becomes impoverished. So the general health suffers; langour, nervous troubles and, often sleeplessness follows. It is well to remember that the whole system. relies upon good blood and that good blood is impossible unless the digestion is good. The stomach cannot do its work unless the blood is made rich and red, and so new blood alone can cure indigestion. It is for this reason that a remedy like Dr. Williams' Pink Pills which makes 1.ew, Itch blood,/cures indigestion and builds up the whole system., The great value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in cases of this kind is proven by the statement of Mr. R. E. Small, Wing- hare, . Ont.,' who says;—"The truth- fulness of my statement can be proven by scores of my friends and acquaint-. ances. I am a glove cutter by trade and for six long years, have at times been a great sufferer from conmplica- tion of ills chiefly due to indigestion. Gas would accumulate on the stomach• causing me great pain. I would bloat -up at time' acid almost suffocate, and often when at • work would be over- come by a drowsy oppression which was almost indiscribable. Finally I began the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and after taking seven boxes I feel like a new man. The transform- ation they haveanade in me is simply remarkable, and while using them I gained , thirteen pounds in weight. I may add that I began the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as a result of what they did for a niece, who underwent a critical operation, and who - did not regain her strength un- til she started using the. pills, In her case they fully 1y restored ed he r health, and this encouraged me to ' be- g ;,�n their use, with, as I have already said, a complete restoration of health in my own case." You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills through any dealer in medicine, or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Wil- liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. tat 18th, 1918, evidently took the Germans by surprise, throwings them back permanently on the defensive, and in the end it was Ludendorff who insist- 1 ed that an armistice should be asked for. When. the Allied terms were an- nounced, mnounced, he says that he wanted to resume the war, but that the Ger- ! man civilian population and the l Berlin politicians had no heart left l fdr the enterprise. David Harum Continued from Page 7 got to lookin, like a putty even thing. What little show I had made was if anythin' on the Purse side. One day Tenaker come in to see me an' wanted to know flat-footed which side the fenee.1 was on. `Wa'al,' I says ,`I've ben satin' up Sex shapes to be kind o' on the fence, but I, don't mind say - in', betwixt you an' me, that_ the bulk o' my. heft is a-saggin' your way; but I hain't took no active part, an' Purse an' them thinks. I'm goin' to be on their side when it comes to a pinch." `Wa'al,' he says, 'it's goin' to be a' putty close thing,, an' we're goin' to need all the, help we e'n git.' 'yya'al,' I says, '1 guess that's so, but fer the present I reckon ;I e'n do ye more good by keepin' in the shade. Are you folks prepared to spend a little money?' I says. "'Yes,' he says, 'if it come to that' "Wa'al,' I .,.says, 'it putty most gen'ally does come to that, don't it? Now, 'the's one feller that's doin' ye more hewn than some others.' "You mean Staples ?' he says. " `Yes,' I says, .`I mean Staples: He don't really care a hill o' white beans which way the road conies in, but he thinks he's on the poplar side. Now,' I says, `I don't know as it'll be nec'- sary to use money with him, an' I don't say 't you could, anyway, but mebbe his yawp c'n be stopped. I'll have a quiet word with him,' I says, see you agin,' So," continued 1<r. Harum, "the next night the' was quite a lot of 'eni in the bar of the new hotel, an' Staples was haranguin' way the best he knowed bow, an' bime by I nodded him off to one side, an' we went across the hall into the set- -tin' room. "'I see you feel putty strong 'bout this bus'nis,' I says. " `Yes, sir, it's a matter of prine- ple with me,' he says, knockin' his fist down onto the table. " `How does -:the outcome on't look to ye?' I says. `Goin' to be a putty close race, ain't it?' " `Wa'al,' he says, ''tween you an' me, I reckon it is.' " `That's the way it looks to me,' I says, 'an' more'n that, the other fellers are ready to spend some money at a pinch,' if aey be, be they,' he says. '" es, sir,' I says, 'an' we've got to meet 'em halfway. Now,' I says, takin' a paper out o' my pockets, `what I wanted to say to. you is this: You ben . ruther more profn'nent in this matter than most anybody—fur's talkin' goes—but I'm consid'ably in- t'risted. The's got to be some money raised, an' I'm ready,' I says, `to put 'down as much as you be to a couple o' hundred, an' I'll take d the paper 'round to the rest; but,' I says, un- foldin' it,' I think you'd ought to head the list, -an' I'll come next.' Wa'al," said David with a chuckle and a shake of the head, "you'd ought to have seen his jaw go down.' He wriggled 'round in his chair, an' looked ten diff'rent ways fer Sun - day. What do you say?' I says, look - in' square at him, '4'11 you make it a couple a hundred?' " `Wa'al, he says, `I guess I couldn't go 's fur 's that, an' I wouldn't like to head the list anyway.' t "All right,' I says, `I'll head it. Will you say one -fifty ?' - " `No,' he says, puffin' his whiskers, `I guess not.' " `A hundred?' I says, an' he shook his head. "'Fifty,' I says, 'an' I'll go a hun- dred,' an at that he got 'out his hank'- chif an' blowed his nose, an' took his time to it. Wa'al,' I says, 'what do ye say?' " `Wa'al,' he says, `I ain't quite pre- pared to give ye 'n answer to -night. Fact on't is,' he says, 'it don't make a cent's with o' diff'rence to me person'ly which way the dum'd road comes in, an' I don't -jest this minute see why I should spend any money in it' " `There's the princ'ple o' the thing,' I says. "Yes,' he says, gettin' out of his chair, 'of course, there's the princ'ple of the thing, are—wa'al, I'll think it over an.' see you °gin;' he says, look - in' at .his watch. `I got to go now.' -"Wa'al, the next night," proceeded Mr. Harum, "I went down to the hotel agin, .an' the' was about the same crowd, but no Staples. The' wa'n't much goin' on, an' Purse, in pertic'ler, was lookin' putty down in the mouth. `Where's Staples ?' I says. " `Wa'al,' says Purse, 'he said meb- be he'd come to -night, an' mebbe he couldn't. Said it wouldn't make much diff'rence; an' anyhow he was goin' out o' town up to Syrchester fer a few days. I don't know what's come over the feller,' says Purse. '1 told him the time was gittin' short an' we'd have to git in our best` licks, an' he said he guessed he'd done about all 't he could, an' in fact,' says Purse, `he seemed to 'a' lost int'rist in the hull thing.' "What did you say?" John asked. "Wa'al," said David -with a grin, "Purse went on to allow 't he guessed somebody's pocketbook had ben talk- in', but I didn't say much of anythin' an' putty soon come away. Two three days after," he continued, "I see Ten- aker °gin. 'I hear Staples has gone out o' town,' he says, 'an.'

Once on a time,' I says, 'the' was a big church meetin' that had lasted three days, an' the last evenin' the' wits consid'able excite- ment.

Smith's a good roan, an' a pious man," the moderator says, "but he's very excit- able, an' Pm 'fraid he'll git the boys to goin' back there an' disturb the meetin'." So Jones he worked his way back to where Smith was, an' the moderator watched him go up to Smith and jest speak to him 'bout ten seconds; an' after that Smith never peeped once. After the meetin' was over, the moderator says to Jones, "Brother Jones," he says, "what did you say to Brother Smith to -night that shut him up so quick?"
