BRIGHTER CHILDREN

Children are PROBABLY brighter to-day
than generation ago-but are they
stronger9 That's grave question.
So many pinched faces, dulled eyes
and languid feelings make US wonder
if they will ever grow into robust,
healthy men and women.
If your children catch colds easily,
are tired when rising, lack healthy
color, or find studies difficult, give
them SCOTS Emulsion for one month
to enrich their blood and restore the
body-forces to healthy action.
SCOTS Emulsion is used in private
schools. 1t is not a "patent medicine,

much impressed with the huge pile Of
brick and stone built by my fellow
townsman, Mr.. Andrew Carnegie, and
I'm sure caught my cabbie laughing
at me because ! asked 80 many ques-
tions about it. However, the caretak-
ers were positively enthusiastic about
the building, and after I had paid q
flfty-cent fee two of them assured me
that It would be used for its intended
purpose.
As I was in q hurry to reach the
Hotel des Indes, gave its empty mar
bic corridors and yawning council
chambers the "once over" and re-
turned to my cab.
"Sehr nett, NIGHT wahr" said the
cabbie, who thought I was q German.

strained myself with an effort.

land is in q position to know that
peace in Europe Is q remote possibil-

ically and every other way, is q very
difficult one.
What The Hague 10 Like.
The Hague is one of the smallest
and least distinguished capitals in
Europe. It is really only a suburb of
Rotterdam, for 1t Is but twenty-five
minutes ride by electric train. It
has population Of about 100000. Its
most imposing pile is the unused
Peace palace. The Royal palace
looks more like Q barracks than .
queens residence.
However, The Hague gives one the
impression Of being quite an impor-

tant little place, especially in the early
hours of the evening. Then the mar
row little streets in the heart of the
city are thronged with people and the
hotels and coffee houses are filled to
overhowing. OF course, there are
plenty of uniforms in evidence, but
what is even more noticeable is the
large number Of Germans, Belgians,
Austrians and English who are on
every side. Like all neutral capitals
on the continent, The Hague is a dear
ing house for spies. All the Germans,
Belgians, Austrians and English one
sees are not spies, but many Of them
are. They do not keep to themselves,
as one might expect, but chat with
each other across the tables in the
coffee houses and bars.

there Is nothing in the Dutch papers

published in Holland, but the Berlin
and London papers, especially the Ber-
liner Tageblatt and the London Times,
have the call because a larger proper
ton Of the population reads and
speaks either English or German.
The Hotel des Indes, which is the
best hotel in Holland, is the mecca OF
the members Of the diplomatic corps.
Its prices have advanced slightly since
the war owing to the increased de-
mand for accommodations. In gener-
al, however, restaurant prices are the
same as they were two years ago. and
