time. That is not always so," MT. Root continued. There is no inter- national statute of limitations. Time alone cures no wrong. AS we con- slider how it may be possible to re- establish the law of nations upon a durble basis we must realize that past experience indicates that no sys- tenn of law which depends upon the physical partition of the earth dic- tated by the expediency of the time, no law which must be broken in order that living wrongs shall be redressed. or in order that new ideas of the fu- ture may find room for growth, can be permanent.
 Throughout the greater part of the world constitutions have become the order of the day. The political con- ception of control from above by monarchs exercising divine right has faded and grown dim. What is to be the effect of this change in conditions upon the possibility of making inter-, national law relatively permanent?
 There is radical incompatibility between popular self-government and continuous military discipline, for mill itary control is in itself despotic. As compared with military autocracies. the normal condition of democracies is a condition of inferior military eff ficiency. This invariable character istic of democracy leaves it no option in its treatment of autocracy. The two kinds of government cannot live permanently side by side. So long as military autocracy continues de- mocracy is not safe from attacks. which are certain to come some time, and certain to find 1t unprepared. The conflict is inevitable and universal and 1t is a routrance.
 Democracy Must Stay Autocracy.
 'To be safe democracy must kill its enemy when it can and where it can. The world cannot be half dem ocratic and half autocratic. It must be all democratic or all Prussian. There can be no compromise. If It is all Prussian there can be no real international law. If 1t Is all demo- cratic international law honored and observed may we'll be expected as natural development of the principles which make democratic self-govern- ment possible.
 '"The democracies of the world are gathered about the last stronghold of autocracy and engaged in the conflict thrust upon them by dynastic policy pursuing the ambition of rulers under claim of devine right for their own aggrandizement, their own glory, without regard to law or justice or faith. The issue today and tomorrow may seem uncertain, but the end IS not uncertain. No one knows how soon the end will come or what dreadful suffering and sacrifice may stand between; but the progress of the great world movement that has.

QUIT MEAT WHEN BACK HURTS OR KIDNEYS BOTHER
Says Uric Acid in meat clogs Kidneys and ir1'itates
 Bladder.
A Glass of Salts is Harmless way to flush Kidneys, says
 authority.

If you must have your meat every day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says noted authority who tells us that meat forms uric acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their efforts to expel 1t from the blood. They become sluggish and weaken, then you suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 To neutralize these irritating acids. to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body's urinous waste get four ounces of lad Salts from any phar- macy here; take . tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act hne. This famous salts is made from the acad of grapes and lemon juice, combined with Nthia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutraliSo the acids in urine, 90 1t no longer 1rritates, thus ending bladder weakness.
 Jed Salts is inexpensive: cannot in- jure. and makes delightful effsrves- cent lthia-water drink.

WORLD PEACE AFTER
 KAISER'S DOWNFALL
Root Sees Era of Bliss After
 Defeat of AutoCracy

Washington, April 27.-A dream of universal peace, made possible py the present war. was portrayed last night by Elihu Root, speaking nere before the eleventh annual meeting of the American Society of 1nterna- tional Law, of which he is president He declared that civilization for many years had sought eagerly for some international understanding that would, avoid all future troubles be- tween nations, but the attempts have failed because they did not recognize and remove the underlying cause of war-the desire of autocracies for wealth and aggrandizemnt. In the present hostilities the allied nations have recognized tho need to over throw Prussianisn, the last stronghold of autocracy. and with its downfall will come a secure peace.
 ''The modern era of nationalities has been marked by three great con- vulsions which turned the minds of all civilized men toward peace," he said, land led them to seek means to make peace secure" These were the Thirty Years war, the Napoleonic wars and the Crimean war, he de- clared. The first brought the Peace of Westphalia and produced the science of modern international law. The second produced the Treaty of Vienna and the Holy Alliance, which was the first league to enforce peace" These both failed because they based themselves on the needs of the mo- ment and not on the future and all lowed ancient wrongs to continue in the belief that time would cure them.

Drink . glass of real hot water before breaIfast to wash
 out polsons.

Life is not merely to live. but to live we'll eat we'll. digest well, sleep we'll, look well. What a glorious condi- ton to attain. and yet how very easy it is if one will only adopt the morning inside bath.
 Folks who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when they arise split ting headache. stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid sto- mach, can. instead, feel as fresh as daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stagnant matter.
 Everyone. whether ailing, sick or well. should, each morning. before breakfast. drink .. glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver. kidneys and bowels the previous days indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour lamentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one splendid appetite for breakfast. While. you are enjoying your breakfast the water and phosphate Is quietly ex- tracting a large volume of water from the blood and getting ready for thorough flushing of all the inside organs.
 The millions of people who are bothered with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism: others who have sallow skins, blood disorders and sick1y complexions are urged to get a quarter pound of lime stone phosphate from the drug store which wil cost very little, but is sufficient to make anyone a pro- nounced crank on the subject oe internal sanitation.

Tells How She Recovered Her
 Strength.
 If the elderly people in Kingston could only realize what Vinol would do for them we would not be able to Following is letter received from Mrs. A. D. Carson of this town. She says:-
 '.I am 69 years of age, and had been ailing for a long time with indigestion. I got run down, was weaks dizzy and could not sleep at night. I consulted two doctors who said I had hardening of the arteries and at my age could not expect to be strong again. My daughter would give me no peace until I tried Vinol, as it had done so much for her. I have taken five bottles and my health and strength have come back, so I am able to do all the house. work for my family of four. and I am recommending Vinol to all my friends"
 The reason Vinol is so beneficial to old people is because it contains the very elements needed to replace de- clining strength with renewed vigor. viz, beef and cod liver peptones iron and manganese peptonates. glycero- phosphates and a mild tonic wine.
 We want to ask every elderly person and every weak, rundown or debili- tated person in New Britain to call at our store and get a bottle of Vinol. with the understanding that we will return your money if it fails to benefit

the territory has had no funds with
