THE MAETERLINCK VIEW

That the European war IS taking a
toll OF 1.-THE best minds is the conten-
ton OF Maurice Maeterlinck, eminent
Belgian author and one OF the most
forceful philosophical writer's of con-
temporary time.
The noted Belgian proves his con
tention in this way: When one sees
the frightful loss of so many young
lives as the war has caused, when
one sees so much physical and moral
energy, so much intelligence, such
magnificent promises for the future
stricken down at the very source, one
verges on dispair Never before have
such fine embodiments OF energy and
hope been cast pell-mell, one after
the other, increasingly into a nothing
ness whence ome no grateful re-
Spouse. Since it's existence, human
its treasures. its substance and its
future. For many months, on every
battle field. where the bravest, the
most sincere and the most devoted
must necessarily die the first, and
where the less brave, the less gener-
Gus. the weak, the sick-in a word.
the less desirable-alone have a
chance to escape the carnage. a mon
strous sort OF selection has been go
ing on for the ruin of the species.
The European of tomorrow is to
be the most unfit OF today, then, and
what this holds in store for the future
Of the European countries it is not
for US to know. Suffice it to say that
such logic brings to Americans an
opportunity they can i'll afford to seize.
Europe is to be peopled by the weak.
The United States is peopled by .he
strong. What place is there for us
in the world tomorrow and the next
day? What are we to do for the
world and what will our relation be ?
And are we ready?-Fresno Herald.

A APPEAL

Serbia is appealing to America tor
help. The appeal was framed by
Father Velnicoloi, professor of theol-
ogy of Saint Sava seminary and
priest of the royal chapel. Joining it
also is the Serbian Women's Associa-
ton for Helping War Sufferers. The
appeal reads:
"The United States and the institu-
tons OF North America were created
as a protest against conditions pre-
vailing in old Europe. Serbia, a little
America in Europe, has had a hard
fate, because of her democratic ten
denotes.
after five hundred years OF black
slavery Serbia freed herself from the
Mohammedan sultan. But now a
Christian kaiser. himself preaching
Christ the Merciful, considers it a
glory to crush and e~nslave this little
Christian nation, just ~blossoming
into the light OF freedom.
THE people of Serbia do not hate
the people OF Schiller and Goethe.
but wonder why the kaiser is imitat-
ing the sultan in his destructive work.
SERBIA is silently, painfully fight
ing and dying. Facing starvation,
she appeals for aid. Only America
can relieve Serbia. America can send
bread and clothing to the hungry,
frozen people, who are now being so
terribly punished because they have
been brave.
1--WE make this appeal to the 'coun-
try Of liberty
"'Come and save our people in the
name of humanity and freedom, and
God and history will not forget your
deed"

MANURICl"
THE NEWEST
DISCOVERY IN CHEMISTRY

This is a recent discovery of Doctor
Pierce, who is head of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo,
N. Y. Experiments at Doctor Pierce's
Hospital for several years proved that
there is TO other eliminator of uric acid
that can be compared to it. For those
easily recognized symptoms of in1am-
nation as backache, scalding urine
and frequent urination, as well as sedi-
ment in the urine, or if uric acid in the
blood has caused rheumatism, it is
simply wonderful how surely vAnuric"
acts. The best of results are always
obtained in cases of acute rheumatism
in the joints, in gravel and govt, and
| invariably the pains and stiffness which
so frequently and persistently accom-
pany the disease rapidly disappear.
Go to your nearest drug store and
| simply ask for a 5O-cent package Of
vAnuric," manufactured by DIR. Pierce,
| or even write Doctor Pierce for a free
| sample. If you suspect kidney or blad-
| der trouble, send him a sample of your
water and describe symptoms. Doctor
| Pierce's chemist will examine it, then
/! DR.. Pierce will report to you, without
fee or charge.
NOTE - French scientists affirm that
uAnuric" is thirty seven times more
! active than lithia in eliminating uric
acid, and is a harmless but reliable
chemical compound that may be safely
given to children, but should be used
only by grown-ups who actually wish to
| restore their kidneys to perfect health,
!! by conscientiously using n box-or
more in extreme cases as "Anuric"
thanks to Doctor Pierce's achievement)
is by far the most perfect kidney and
! bladder corrector obtainable.

Once again by a frightful loss of

neither bulkheads nor so-called life
boats served to minimize the disaster

impact of the deadly torpedo the
stately ocean liner disappeared be-
meath the waters forever. The ex-
cessive size of the Ship her splendid
equipment and luxurious saloons, per
haps gave a sense of security that had
no foundation whatever, in fact, when
the dazed passengers were confronted
by a watery grave as the great ship
bore them down.
