When peace does come the money
interest will know it first. In this
connection the following by Henry
Clews, the great New York financial
writer, is interesting. The desire of
Germany to end the war is unoues-
tionable. Peace feelers have been
repeatedly put forward and the be-
lief in its early coming strengthens
daily. The greatest hindrance to
peace now is the strong inclination
of the allies to push the war to final
conclusion. The final struggle be-
tween the armies of the central now
ers and the entente is probably vet
to come; as yet neither side has con-
quered, and no satisfactory or lasting
peace can be established until one
side or the other has been forced into
submission. Thus, while peace is in
the air, and while the mad thirst for
war has been superseded by a sane
longing for peace, there is no imme-
diate prospect as yet for any such con-
clusion.

WHAT CATARRR IS

1t has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in SCOTS Emulsion which is
medicinal food and building-tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.
