A Year Of Disillusionment.

The world has suffered disillusion-
ment. That has been, perhaps, the
most striking and significant feature
of the great war" whi-b began a
war against Serbia. Belligerents and
neutrals alike have been surprised
and disappointed. On every hand the
unexpected has occurred, or the con-
fidently expected has failed to occur
Almost every surprise has been un-
welcome. And of such SURPRISES, "the
end is not yet"
The whole world has been surprised
and disappointed in that there was
great war at all. 1t had largely been
persuaded to accept as convincing
three primary reasons Why there
should and would be none. Arma-
ments had become so gigantic that
the nations would not dare to use
them; but while they have. in fact,
proved to be greater and more de-
structive than any one imagined, the
nations have not hesitated TO set them
loose in their lethal and devastating
fury The money kings of the world
would prevent a war by Withholding
the needed pecuniary means; but
they have, in fact, promoted and en-
couraged the war and have made
haste to provide its fiscal sinews on a
scale never dreamed OF before. The
great industrial and mercantile ma
tions, Great Britain ana Germany,
would not engage in nor permit a war
which would destroy thei" commerce;
but they are in fact the chic: belliger-
ents.
Two other illusions We're cherished
concerning the war as whole. One
was that the great pow ers would
never permit themselves to be plung-
ed into general European war over
the affairs of any of the minor states;
yet this anniversary reminds Us that
it was over Serbia the war was be-
gun. The other was that II a war did
occur it would of necess' 'ty be very
brief: probably confined 10 only one
or two great battles. RGt this war
has lasted for a year without SEEM
ing now to be any neare its close
than it was at the beginning. and
its methods of campaign ire those of

II is a pleasant, vegetable liquid

Children and grown folks can (eke
Dodson's Liver Tone, because 1t is per

Calomel is dangerous drug. 1t is

Take a dose of nasty calomel today
and you will feel weak, sick and
nauseated tomorrow. Don't lose a

will wake up feeling great. No more
biliousness, constipation, sluggish

better than horrible calo'del. your
money is waiting for you.

1t is not necessary for us to add
