Mr. Hopper. More people have heard

SCIENTISTS TELL US LITTLE
Men Of Learning Are But Theorists
When They Come to Face the
Facts Of Life.

That a great part Of the body be-
healthy. living man is the verdict of
science. Even the blood, which has
always been called "the life," Is only
alive as to its corpuscles. These swim
In the liquid known as the plasma,
which is not alive and can be replaced
by serum that may have been stand

months. With the hair, teeth, bones
and blood plasma are to be classed
the lymph, the chyle, the fluids In the
pleura, pericardium, peritoneum and
wen the cerebro-spinal fiuid-the fluid
part of the brain and spinal column.
Fone Of the gases and fluids In the
body are more alive than the lime of
he bones. This leaves US the cells
~ the only living part, and these are
dying and being replaced by the mil
lion every hour.
From all of which facts II Is argued
by certain scientists that life is no
more real than death and that the
only difference between life and death
is a state of the protoplasm or con
tents of the cell As long as the cell
Is alive II retains and controls the
chemical substances which constitute
protoplasm. But as soon as II Is really
dead. the control Is lacking and the
cell breaks up.
This still leaves us much In the
dark as to what is life.-Exchange.

FOR A WORLD PEACE

Those who see the danger in the
present maintenance of armed forces
by the various nations will welcome
with interest the report that Secre,
tary of State Knox is believed TO have
discovered a way whereby the nations
OF the world can select judges agree.
able to all of them to compose per-
manent tribunal at The Hague for the
settlement of international disputes.
Joseph H. Choate, former ambassa-
dor to Great Britain. recently said that
The Hague conference reached no
agreement on its greatest question
the establishment of permanent
court OF arbitration. He attributes
this partly TO the fact that the small
nations of the earth contended that
small nation is a nation and there
fore entitled to as much representa-
ton in such a court as its biggest
neighbor
In many ways there is resem-
blance between the present World
Peace conventions and the federal
convention that framed the constitu-
tion of the United States. There is
the same struggle between state rights
and the rights of the whole, and as has
heen pointed out. there is a rivalry
between the large and the small ma
uons just as there was between the
large and small states. The present
World Peace movement is merely an
other attempt at the union of many
for the benefit of all. AT the Ameri-
can federal convention no agreement
