GERMANY's RESOURCES.
(Boston Record. )

It has been very generally assumed in this country that Germany is fore- doomed to be starved out Gin money 1T not in food). A writer in the New York Mail questions this. After re- citing that the total wealth of Eng land, including foreign investments, is about $S5,O0O,O0O,000 to $S0.OO0,O ,O00.0 900 for Germany and $50,000, 100000 for France. he points out that:
 If the war should continue on the basis of the present expediture until January 1, 1917, by that time the pub lie debt of Germany and of all the German states would amount to about SIS, 1000, 100000, or Is per cent of the national wealth; that of England would be about $14.O0O. 100000, or 10 per cent of her national wealth. and that of France would amount to $12,000.00O, 00O or "A per cent of her national state railroads to the value of about S4,000, 100000 while England and France have practically no investment.
 In order to pay interest on this pub lie debt accumulated to January l. 1917, and pay interest on the already existing debt and current expenses, Germany and the German states would have to increase their revenue from s2.30O, ,OOo, ,OOO to $2,7O0, ,OO0, 900, or in crease taxation about IA per cent; Eng land would have to increase her rev. enues from $s1s, 100000 to about $1.- 400. 900, 900 and increase taation about 55 per cent, and France would have to hiring her revenues from 14,000,- 900 to $1,275, 100000 and increase taxa ton about 32 per cent.

EDISON EXPLAINS.
Seattle P.-I.)

Thomas A. Edison, in an interview Tn the New York Sun, corrects popuiar misapprehension about the servlces to be rendered by the civilian scientlsts and inventors who have accepted the invitation of the navy department to act as an advisory board. The pur- nosa of the new board Is not to fur nish the navy with new devices or their own invention: It proposes to act merely in an advisory capacity, bring ing expert knowledge to bear upon all matters which are brought to It's at- tention. It will look over carefully and advise the acceptance or rejection of any device which may be rendered the government for use in the navy.
 Moreover, it will stand strongly for securing from congress an appropria- ton sufficiently large to permit a wide range of experiments and to defray the expenses of. a thorough trial Of all inventions and improvements which are passed upon by the board as having practical merit and being worthy of a fair trial. If congress should act upon this recommendation, as 1t should the new board may prove of the utmost value to the country.
 Innumerable new inventions. doubt less including many of merit, are of- fered to the navy yearly. but in the great majority of cases in an inchoate form. The inventors lack the means to make the full and elaborate tests necessary to show the value of their inventions.
 With the proposed appropriations and the services of the board headed ed, and there is also assurance that no invention of merit will be overlook ed and there is also assurance that every one which. even in inchoate form.

roRD'S REAL WORK FOR PEACE
Seattle Star.)

The foundation established by Henry cords millions, through its hired men, al soon be spreading the words of peace.
 foundation will succeed where Andy Carnegies failed. Peace Is not mat ter of mere words-"Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace but there Is no peace," at Patrick Henry said.
 Yet Henry Ford has already done a great work in the cause of peace-the establishment of minimum wage of $5 day for every man in his employ. The prime cause of war is not the lust of one people for the blood of another people; it is the greed of & nations ruling class. The United States should be well prepared to repel any attack that may be launched by foreign greed. But at the same time the people of this country must be on their guard lest the greed of a ruling class should corrupt public opinion in an effort to hurl this nation against another nation in the interest of private grab.
 No matter how well prepared for war we may be, this country will never wage an unrighteous war If we have in- dustrial democracy-the rule of the many, the exaltation of the average man in the farm, mine shop, and ware house.
 Ford is making the automobile uni versal." He Is linking country and city with a firm chain of "tin lizzies." He is teaching foreigners English. He is giving the humblest laborer a wage sufficient to educate himself and his children and give both self-respect. He is making the stuff of proud and noble democracy.
 | That is Henry Fords real work for peace.

WHY HUSBAND LEAVES HOME.
(N. |. American

Why do so many husbands run away A Chicago statistician, connected with the bureau of public welfare in that city has been trying to answer the question.
 After Investigating thousands of cases of desertion he finds that the husbands action can usually be as- cribed to one of the following four causes:
 III health and peevishness of the wife.
 Slouchiness of the wife either in her own person or in her housekeeping, or both.
 The wife's habit of nagging or gos- siping.
 Dislike for children on the wife's part.
 This statistician found that the strongest incentive to reconciliation in cases of family discord is almost in- yarlably the child. He also found that 
 Physically big and mentally cheerful.
 Able to contribute to the family in come either by outside labor or by irugality in home management.
 Affectionate and home loving.
 Sympathetic and considerate of their husbands.
 The very interesting and valuable statistics which he collected prove that native American husbands are more prone to desert their wives than are the foreign-born
 They also show that married life Is the happiest when husband and wife are nearest alike in age, nationality, .'eligion moral standards. tempera- ,ment, health and physical strength

GIFTS TO PLEASE THE BRIDE

ents That viii Be Sure to

Young girls often want to make
wedding gift that is not expensive
and yet they want II to be i'm perfect

One girl has made habit OF giving
a guest book or register for the new
home. These can be found at leath-
er and novelty shop for S.. They
come In all colors and when marked
in gilt with the name or initials make
a gift sure to be enjoyed and appre-
ciated.
Another girl says she has given
several little fiat. solid gold lead pen
ellis to be carried in the gold mesh
bag or purse. These also at the most
famous OF jewellers sell for IS. and
when sent in the choicest Of wrap
pings are certainly dainty gifts.
And third young woman. who
has made study Of appropriate and
appreciated wedding gifts, claims that
the little. apparently insignificant
things such as sugar tongs. mustard
spoons, butter ball picks. tea balls.
etc. are frequently missing from a
collection Of gifts. so she confines her
remembrances to these.
A set OF the heavy bronze or metal
book ends. so artistic and decorative,
have been sent to brides lately and
they were welcome.
