"pividine the Pot"

Not being posted on the phraseology
of the gambler we cannot vOuch for
the exact Significance of the line
which heads this article, but we i'm
agine that the application Of the
words TO the present German situa-
ton might make interesting to some
of our readers the following state
ments from Arthur Brisbane, the
noted magazine writer:
I'm game of poker when man
says, I'll divide the pot with you, you
know that he doesn't hold four ac.,s
more likely to hold deuces. II you
are wise you refuse to divide the pot
and get the stake.
"Germany and Austria every other
day say to the allies: I'll divide the
pot; | don't want your territory or
your money indemnity. Let's call it
even.' That's very good sign-for the
allies.
IAN the peace talk comes from
Germany-a very good sign.
"German statesmen from the em-
peror down are suddenly filled with
horror of war. They are little late
with this horror, but better late than
never.
"When Germany gets out OF this
war-which she will succeed in doing
after being thoroughly beaten-shs
will have had all the, horriblness, and
all the fight that she needsand more.
ut is an expensive war in men and
money. But in killing n mad dog, ex-
pense does not count. You must kill
