SENATOR SAYS EARLY
PEACE UP TO KAISER

able Terms.
ALL EUROPE IS DESPERATE

"lf Won Bcthmann-Hollwcg in his
expected peace speech lays down rea-
sonable terms it is quite possible that
peace will be declared in the great
world war before Christmas" said
Senator G. NJ. Hitchcock. who arrived
yesterday from Washington to spend
few days here on business.
"All the countries involved in the
war on the other side OF the Atlantic
are in desperate condition." he said,
Russia is in turmoil; Italy is fac
ing financial ruin; Trande and Eng
land are seriously short on food and
other supplies; Germany is verging
on starvati and threatened by in
ternal dissention; Austria is in the
same condition,
Submarine Menace Serious.
"On top OF all this is the subma-
rine, which is most serious menace.
The submarine is a success, decided
success. And no adequate way has
been found to hight It,
"The only thing | snow of now
under consideration to combat it is the
proposal to stretch a Gordon of small
vessels, cruisers, torpedo boats and so
on, from the Shetland islands to the
Norway coast, and have nets between
these v-ssels, thus shutting the sub
marines from the Atlantic ocean.
"The distance is 1870 miles and it
would require all the small vessels
of England and France and the United
States and would cost $lS0000,000. 1t
is possible that out of many sugges-
tons something may come to destroy
submarines more rapidly than they
are being destroyed now."
Concerning war enthusiasm. the
senator said it is greater in the east
than il is here, but that the enlisting
is greater here than in the east.
More Enlist in West.
New York waves the most flags,
but Illinois enlists more men than
New York. And Nebraska shows a
very healthy enlisting spirit" he said.
Washington is scene of the great
est activity now. Departments work
day and night. The buildings are
lighted up until the small hours. While
peace may come, we are preparing for
a three years war"
Senator Hitchcock is one of the
three senate members OF the commit
tee comforting on the draft bill. He
is the only one Of the three in favor
of the provision allowing Colonel
Roosevelt to lead a volunteer division

measure.
To save soldiers and sailors from all
kinds of legal injustice during their

It is proposed that creditors suits

trainers of the bill recognizing that a

no opportunity to make his defense in

If such judgment rested against a

bill would prevent its execution thru

GOOD LIVESTOCK PAYS.

The crisis confronting owners of
livestock is certain to create efficiency
in our meat production, 1t viii not
only force us to buildmore silos and sow
more winter pastures, but it will com
pei US to breed our cows and our sows
and our ewes to better sires than we
have been in the habit Of doing.
All Of this win be caused by the con-
tinued high cost of feedstufs. Scrub
stock cannot proftably be fed high
priced feed.
On the other hand, however, we are
confronted by the fact that meat and
meat products are bringing record
prices on the markets, which means
that good livestock is more profitable
than ever before. This is aptly put as
follows; "The higher the price of feed
the more expensive it is to keep pool

Don't expect your minister to give

Don't expect him to preach good
sermons if you don't come to hear
them.
Don't expect him to preach good SER

are good.

Don't expect every sermon he preach
es to be the kind of sermon you like.
1t takes many kinds of people to make
a world, and the sermons you like the
least may be the best he has preached
for half a hundred people.
Don't knock your minister. No good
ever comes of knocking, and you set
a bad example.
Don't radiate pessimism and expect
your minister to be buoyant with op-
timism. Flowers thrive only in the
sunshine.
Don't expect your minister to be

C0LORED PEOPLE DELIGHTED
WITH NEW DISCOVERY
TO BLEACH THE SKIN

Atlanta, Ga.-Says that recent
tests have proven without doubt that
swarthy or sallow compilations can be
made light by a new treatment recent
ly discovered by a man in Atlanta.
Just ask your druggist for Cocotone
Skin Whitener. People who have used
it are amazed at it's wonderful effect.
Rid your face of that awful dark color
org reasy appearance in a few min
utes. 1t costs so little that you can't
afford to be without it. Just think
how much prettier you would look with
that old dark skin gone and a new,
soft light skin in its place. Men and
women today must care for their COM
plexions to enter society.
If your druggist will not supply you
with Cocotone Skin Whitener, send 25c
for a large sample to Cocotone Co., At
