ihere can be no purer sugar.
Refined sugar is a sugar-mostly I'M

10 a given state with all Of its impurities,
including a great deal of molasses, still
attached to the grain because of the failure

The operation of capitalization proceeds.
Then the refiner takes the sugar and re-
,nets it. After having remelted it he
ptrans it through bone black, which is a
charcoal made out of the charred bones
If animals. Sugar is clarified in that way.
Il is then graduated and is known as re
lined sugar. II is not nearly as clean a
sugar as is the washed sugar, nor is it so
desirable, as the Senator from New Hamp-
chire will perceive.
Prime yellow clarified sugars or plants-
ton graduated sugars are washed sugars
Domino sugars, cube sugar, pulverized
sugars, and all sugars made by the re-

Therefore the party retained its old lib

Saxonian district of Annaberg and elect

member, to rescind the decision Of the
National Liberal Reichstag Party, which,

peace resolution of the Reichstag. While

The Stars and Stripes

By Hon. Frederick {. Hicks OF New 7 ort
THE flag of America does more than
Il proclaim mere power or acclaim
great and glorious history. Its folds wave
a benediction to the yesterdays of accom-
plshment and beckon the to-morrows Of
progress with hope and confidence; 1t
heralds the noble purposes of a mighty
people and carries a message Of hope and
inspiration to all mankind
Its glowing splendor appeals to US to de-
mand international justice and arbltra-
ton; it commands US to self-sacrifice, and
TO universal obligation of service which
alone can maintain equality Of rights and
fulness of opportunity in our Republic. Its
stars and its stripes voice the spirit Of
America calling to nation of indomitable
courage and infinite possibilities to live the
tenets of Christianity, to teach the gospel
CT work and usefulness, TO advance educa-
ton, to demand purity Of thought and
action in public life, and TO protect the
liberties Of free government from the ag-
gressions Of despotic power. This is the
call of the flag of the Union in this hour
Of crisis and turmoil when civilization and
the laws of nations and Of humanity are
Icing engulfed in the maelstrom Of death
and destruction.

Paris in War Time

TENRY J. ALLEN, Kansas City
editor, has gone to France in the
interests of the American Red
Cross. These are some of his impressions,
which were printed in "The Kansas City
STAR:
"Wsr seems nearer TO US than II has az
any time since we arrived. This isn't be-
cause Of anything that has happened in
Paris.
This has been, for the two days we have
lived in 1t, the most grotesquely peaceful
town I've ever seen. The dark quiet of the
nights is restful beyond any night life I've
ever known in any city
Nevertheless, / realize We are TO witness
the tragic drama that has taken its colossal
toll Of France for three years. We've been
ordered 20 the front tomorrow. As | look

community. Whoever the Montagus asked

Campbell Zimmerman, or some peer, the fac
remains that, at a given moment, the Dlac'
skull caps are assumed and the Hebrew grac
solemnly rected.
"Thc family has two branches, very close
ly related-Mr. Herbert Samuel being Mon
tagu's first cousin. Some Jews are given
to bold finance e. e.. Barney Barnato) and
Godfrey Isaacs, Of Marconi fame, is ready te
take risks which usually turn out all right
1.-THE Samuels and Montagus are very
cautious, depending for their success en-
tirely on thorough knowledge Of business
and sound judgment They are close at a
bargain, but generous afterward. The
Rothschlds enjoy sport and society-shoot-
ing and racing, and, in the case Of Lord
Rothschld (the present one). zoology. The
Samuels and Montagus take UP politics and
administer the state as effectively as they
do their own family concerns. They leave
nothing TO chance.
IAN illustration Of this occurred before
the war, when India was short Of silver and
ring was formed against her treasury.
The Samuel firm meets with others daily
and fixes the price Of silver for the world,
bat despite this fact, they bought secretly
for India, broke the ring and saved the ma
tive taxpayers over half q million sterling.
No end of fuss vas made about II be-
cause they were in the government at the
time, and silver merchants all over the
world would have preferred high prices to
continue. But the incident shows that ii
helps the state TO have Jews like the Sam
uels and Montagus TO watch the public in
terest.
"Montagu married a daughter Of Lord
Stanley, Of Alderley-the education man-but
not before tho lady accepted the faith Of
Abraham. She now attends the synagogue In
stead Of church. He spent years, first as
Asquith's private secretary, then as Under
Secretary for India. under Lord Crewe, and
then as Financial Secretary to the Treasury.
He always made good, and he succeeded
Lloyd George at the Ministry Of Munitions.
When Asquth went under Montagu had to
90 out into the cold with other Liberal
ministers, though all his friends knew that
he preferred Office. Not long ago ne spoke

wi way for nation to wage war with
the greatest efficiency. IL must pool it's
resources like one great family having a
single larder and common purse. Every

The Pink BOllwOrm
By Hon. James Buchanan. of Texas

by Ton. James buchanan, Oh -NdS
From an sddres, delivered in the House,
THE pink bollworm, without exaggera-
L ton, is to-day the most real and de-
structive pest that has ever aroused the
cotton world.
The pink bollworm, like the Mexican
boil weevil, halls from the Mexican tropics
and is very much more destructive and in
fnitely more difficult to fight and impossi-
BILE to exterminate. 1t is more to be
dreaded than all the pests that prey on
natures finest provision for universal
clothing. 1t is the most Incompatible
terror of all the insect enemies that infest
the fields and ginhouses and seed sheds
and oil mills of the cotton regions. It's
food, and its only food, is furnished by
the cotton plant. II lives on the green
boil in the stalk, the dry seed in the bin,
or under the shed, and its life is pre-
served in the packed lint of the cotton
bale, and its perennial existence runs
through the four seasons.
