became King James of England in

France. poor in coal and iron, can
not be great in a day of modern in
dustry. Take the iron and coal out
of Germany, put it in the hillsides of
France, and all those intellectual
forces which form the mind of
France would teach the absolute ne

mothers would have large families to
work her mines and factories, her
railroads and her ships, and thus
France would soon have 68,000,000 of
people. Without her coal and iron,
all the editors, professors, clergymen
and government experts of Germany
would teach the absolute necessity of
having small families and soon Ger
manyswould have 100000 of people

The notion that these nations are
fundamentally different because they
speak different languages is utterly
wrong. About two-thirds of the peo-
pie of France and one-third of the
people of Germany are Celts, that is
they have dark hair and dark eyes,
round heads and round faces, stocky
forms and emotional hearts. Reverse
ly. about 80 per cent of the people of
France and about 65 per cent of the
people of Germany are Teutonic or

faces and long heads, tall bodies and

all sorts of admixtures of these types
but the proportion holds generally.

OLD PEOPLE
WHO STAY YOUNG
The way for men and women beyond
middle age to keep well is to keep
their blood red. Pepto- Mangan 10 .
Builder Of Red Blood.

Red-blooded men and. women grow old
gracefully, retaining much of their youthful
vigor to the end. No invalid's chair, no
chimney-coner for them. Red blood flows
through their veins, and red blood drives
them through their daily tasks and pleasures
with the vim of youth.
How different the men and women who
have allowed themselves to grow old and
weak because they've allowed their blood
to grow old and weak! Their hearts have
lost their pumping capacity. The walls of
the arteries and veins have grown too soft
or too hard. And the weak, thin blood
hasn't enough of the force Of youth left to
rid itself of poisons, or carry the life-giving
oxygen throughout the system.
The most sensible thing to do is to pre-
vent old age keep the blood young and
red by the daily maintenance of the laws of
right living. But if old age already has crept
upon you, here is a simple way to renew a
good part of your youth. Make sure each
day of abundant rest and fresh air, moderate
exercise and diet. For your blood tonic, take
