Ealina and Sleeping.

Food supplies the substance for re-
pairing the wastes of the body, and
gives strength. Sleep affords the OPP
portunity for these repairs to be made.
Both are necessary to health. If you
can't eat and sleep, take Hoods Sarsa-
parilla. 1t creates good appetite and
tones the digestive organs, and it gives
the sweet. restful sleep of childhood.
Be sure to get Hoods.

finny tribe and wherever dog fish are
abundant nearly every other species Of
fish is conspicuous by its absence.

THE PEACE TRIBUNAL.
The President to Name Four Arbitcrs
Under The Hague Treaty.

The final steps to make The Hague
Treaty operative, so far as this country is
concerned, viii consist in the signing of
the convention by the President and the
sending Of the signed copy to the United
States Minister at The Hague for deposit.
Upon its receipt the Government of The
Hague will notify the signatory powers by
a process verbal that the Universal Peace
Treaty has been ratified by the United
States and that the Washington Govern
ment is thereby party to the compact.
There will be no formal exchange OF copies
of the treaty.
The treaty creates a board OF arbitration
composed of representatives from each of
the signatory powers. four of whom are to
be appointed by this country.
II has been suggested that the President
would appoint Stanford Newell, the Amer
lean envoy at The Hague. as the ranking
member Of the board, in recognition of his
work at the Peace Conference. This
would place Mr.. Newell in line for men,
bership on the administrative council OF
the tribunal. which body will be charged
with organizing the international bureau,
with installing the court OF arbitration,
and with prescribing rules and regulations
for the performance of its duties.
The manner of meeting the expenses of
the international body is not provided for
in the treaty. Naturally. each signatory
power will be called upon to pay its repre-
sentatives and to contribute its snare to-
ward the maintenance of the tribunal
