PERMANENT PEACE
OBJECT OF GERMANS
Newspaper Says Fatherland Cannot
Expect War Indemnities.

ny international news SerN1cesb
Zurich, July THE Neue Zuericher
Ieitung publishes a remarkable pro-
test against the pan-German war
aims and dreams OF annexations and
indemnities. 1t is written by Prince
Alexander zu Hohenlohe, former Aus
trian finance minister, and says, in
part:
Every unbiased observer OF the
economic conditions of the different
bclligerent countries knows that all
of the fighting nations have made
such tremendous sacrifices in b ood
and treasure that the payment of in
IDENTITIES Is out OF the question. The
terrible wounds caused by the war
cannot be healed again.
'If the titanic struggle does not
end very soon every one of the bel
ligerent nations will be bankrupt. /
doubt very much that any one of them
would today be able 10 pay an in
demnity of considerable size.
THE central powers cannot hope
to collect even a few billions to re-
imburse them for the enormous cost
of the war, but our awful sacrifices
will not have been made in vain. We
will get an indemnity which will be
worth more to us than all the gold
and treasure of the world-a perma-
ncnt peace. We must work for the
realization of this war aim.
''The soldiers of every country and
the men and women at home have but
one thought-peace. They pray from
day to day that this awful slaughter
which is depopulsting the world may
cease"

THE German held his revolver close

HOW OLD ARE YOU?
Impure Blood Makes Young Men
Feel Old and Deadens
Energy.
A MAN IS AS OLD AS HIS BLOOD

Some men are old at forty, 9TH
ers are young at seventy. 1t is the
same with women; some retain
their youth long past the prover-
bial three score and ten. Even to-
day we hear of famous French
actress. almost eighty years of age,
lovely and active as in younger
days. She has young blood in her
veins!. That's what keeps up her
vitality and grace.
For the same reason we see men
long past the prime of life going
about their daily tasks doing a
hard days work quicker and bet
ter than many young men can do
theirs. It's in the blood! An iron
constitution is what enables them
to carry on their work long after
the young man has gone home.
Aim Supplies Iron to Blood.
Acid Iron Mineral (natural iron),
makes old folks active again by
supplying the system with iron
easily assimilated by the blood. 1t
drives out the impurities that clog
the system and makes the blood
rich and pure. In addition to three
forms of natural iron, AIM con-
tains magnesium, potassium, cal
cium and sodium sucn as your doc
tor has prescribed for indigestion,
constipation, etc. for more than
thirty years.
Acid Iron Mineral, unlike many
other iron preparations does not
contain alcohol or other harmful
drugs; neither will it harm the
most delicate stomach; nor injure
or discolor the teeth. Aim is
produced from the only natural
medicinal iron mineral deposit of
its kind known to the world. No
chemist has been able to initiate it.
Be sure and get AIM from your
druggist. Look for the trademark,
(A-I-m; 1t is your protection
against alcoholic preparations from
one-half to one-sixth as strong.
Most druggists have It; IL yours

HOW WEALTH GIVES COURAG,
Bank Is More Efficient Than One Who Is Penniless.

There is this to be said about wealth It gives courage to the owner. Pov erty makes towards of us all. ''Tht man who is suffering with fear" say. a writer, "because he does not know where the next dollar is coming from is in no condition to earn or to at tract dollars. Fear always makes 8 man think he is weak, nobody. Ii always pictures the worst; sees no light ahead"
 We hear a great deal these days about efficiency-and about ineffi. cieney. The fellow who has saved few dollars, and has them in the bank or where he can put his hand upon them, is more efficient than the fellow who is penniless, declares the Dayton News. Start out to find a job with never a dollar in your pocket. You'll have a hard time. You appear at a disad- vantage when you approach business man. You feel your dependence. You have a coWardly air about you-an inefficient air. You realize that you will have to accept anything that is of fered. You are in no position to look the business man in the face and tell him your qualifications. Want is at your back, causing you to cringe.
 But with money in your pockets you assume a different attitude. You real fze that you are, to that extent, inde- pendent. You meet the business man more nearly upon an equal footing. You are more courageous, more self assertive, more efficient. You know that you are not compelled to accept the first job offered you. You can discuss wages, and contracts, and con- ditions of employment, if you are not broke" So, if for no other reason, the young man should seek first of all to have bank account, to have some- thing right in the beginning. It is even more important than to save some thing toward the end.

MATERIALS IN BIRDS NESTS
Feather Folk Use Greater Variety of Things in Building Homes Than
 Is Supposed.

Perhaps when you have said that birds nests are made of leaves, twigs, grass, string, moss, feathers, hair or mud you think you have exhausted the list of building materials used by the feathered folk. But to examine even one nest carefully will prove that your list is by no means complete.
 For example, a nest of gray vireo was found to be fastened to the bough of the tree by means of strips of inner bark, of spider and cocoon silk, and of milkWeed stalk. The body of the nest yielded the following in- ventory: White and yellow birch bark, cobwebs, blue bottle fly, spider egg silk tufts, slender roots, bits of ,pith, leaf skeletons from which all but the ribs and veins had been cut away, pine needles, old cocoonS of the tuS- sock moth, grass, caterpillar hairs, dandelion seeds, moss and feathers. At the bottom of the nest, where great strength was needed, was a piece of gray paper from the nest of the paper making hornets, and interwoven with all these were bits of newspaper.
 Other vireo nests have yielded as many as a hundred black spiny cater pillar skins, half yard of lace edg- ing, and even small snake skins.

Mushrooms Go to Waste

Mushrooms are allowed to go to waste in enormous quantities every year, but in part this is on account of the grave risks involved in the selec- tion of edible varieties from among the poisonous kinds that grow in woods and fields. If everyone were able to discriminate with certainty and pre- cision between the safe and unsafe mushrooms that nature sows profuse- ly about the country uncounted thou sands of tons of good food might be added to the supplies already pos- sesSed. ]
