treating with the sponsors of the scrap-of-paper doctrine of information al diplomacy and morality.
 A dispatch says that Trotzky and Lenine are about to come to the be- lated conclusion that they can treat with Germany only as victor or as vanauished. That is true. Unless they are completely defeated the Germans will pose as victors, just as they are doing today. It is this fact which makes it impossible for the entente allies to consider the kaiser's insin- cere peace" proposals. To consider them would be for the allies to place themselves in the plight of the Boz sheviki.
 What the outcome of the negotla- tions at Brest-Litovsk may he nobody can predict, hut it is safe to pro phesy that if separate peace is ne- gotiated Germany will be the victor. In such an event the only consolation remaining for the deluded Maximal- ists will be that they have introduced the germ of revolution in Germany.

ROLSHEVIKI BEING DISILLC-
 SIONED

The Bolsheviki are being jared out of their composure regarding the ease with which separate peace could be negotiated. Amateurs and theorists, they evidently believed that the Ger mans would gladly call it quits on the revolutionary peace" terms and leave Russia to the full enjoyment of it's dazzling discovering in the realm of democracy.
 The Trotzky crowd is doomed to a sadder and a wiser collection of near rulers. Each succeeding day in con- sultation with the envoys of the Ger man militarists adds to their dissil- 1usionment. They find they are deal ing with past masters of indirect dip lomacy, the wearers of the iron cross and the incarnation of the double cross. Oddly enough. even the Bolshe- wiki, in spite of their blindness of fact. are about to discover that they, no less than the allies of Russia. are

THE newspapers of Bulgaria. which is actually is not technically our ene- my, indorses President Wilson's pro- gram and one of them urges the Pres ident to settle the Balkan question on the basis of nationality, giving the Serbians an outlet through the Ad- riatic. There is something of subtle compliment in this appeal. It seems to assume that the allies, rather than the kaiser's militarists. are going to make the final settlement of the Bal kan problem.

The Youthful Bed SlAt.

All save men an0 women of deci- dedly mature years would. if asked how old was the use of stats in beds. reply that 1t was as ancient as beds themselves. The older folks would re- call the fOur-pOst couches with the rope mrsIlrs that >nppOrted the ticks. and would answer that sIats must have come in about Il century ago. They would together only furnish additional proof of the additional shortpess pf the public n,e,nt'ry. Because, be it known. the inventor of these supports Just recently died in this city at the age of seventy-thrre years. says Gin clnnati Enquirer. It was only about forty years ago that he designed the bed that ren,lt red useless the old cords und permitted the use of the now almost universal pad or box mat tress. Corded beds are now as Obs0- lete ns the saber-tonthed tiger or the pterO,lucfyl. GoucheS of this variety, venerable with years, still exist d. show pieces. hut their owners have surreptitiously substituted slats and supports for the ropes nnd pegs. In short, they are sfans. There are other familiar utilities just as young tOothbrushes, for example. The grand. fathers who slept on the cords never dreamed 0f a detachable linen collar. nor the grandm"thsrs of "fiber silk" stockings made of cotton chemically treated.

MOTHER OF 17 CHILDREN
 INJURED IN SHINGLE MILL

OLYMPIA. Jan. 29.-One of the
 most interesting cases that has ever come before the state industrial in- !, surance commission was the claim of
 Mrs. Margaret w. Cleveland. of Aber- deen, who has just been awarded
 compensation for her injuries. The woman is the mother of seventeen
 children, eight of whom are under It
 years of age. She helped her husband
 run a shingle mill and was standing
 near the elevator when her overalls ! caught in the chain and she was ter | ribly injured, all of the flesh being torn off one leg. This happened Octo- Der 2, but the records show that she returned to work tossing wood from the conveyor somewhere between January 3 and January 10. The law in regard to women is that they are
 to get $2O month if the husband IS
 an invalid $25 and if he is not then
 $15 but she gets the maximum Of $35
 month, as she has eight children,
 all under 16 years of age.
 The case is remarkable in that the mother of seventeen children. eight ] less than 16 years of age. is actually performing hard work in shingle mill and that after suffering such serious accident was back to work within such a short time. At the time
 of the injury she was piling blocks.

NATURAL TO PAIR FOR LIFE
Majority Of Men and Women Require Warmth of companIonshIp, but
 cypIe Dsesles oempuIsIon.

There Is something unhealthy and abnormal In the life of the unmarried when they have reached an age and a condition such that their impulses would lead them to marry. w. L.. George writes In llarper's. The hu- nan tendency Is to live in couples {: there are a few rare people of strong Individuality who find all they need within themselves, who. like Narcissus c'nn give a pure worship t0 their own inlng" but they are few. and nearly all men and women need the warmth of romlnnionslIip.
 Now commnnionship is peculiar thing, generally not found in families. One can love ones sisters and ones brothers. hut it is sometimes very diff ncult; one cam love ones father and ones mother. hut as one grows older this becomes almost impossible if one. has to live with them. This because they nre imposed upon one by the ac- cIdrnf nf birth: because one knows too much about them from long assMia- ton. SO that they cease to interest he ca,is" one knows too little about them. never having bren quite frank in the presence of those common masters. the father and the mother. to whom private lives could not be revealed.
 Brothers and sisters form a colnpul sorry grouping. and that is nearly al- ways detestahlp. Likewise. the asso- ciatlOn between parents and children Is exquisite when the child is young and the parent vpncrablp--only. when one Is vigorous and thirty. one does not vpnpratp the people of sixty. who have often lost their brightest fnctI. ties. A parent does not protect when he is sixty. because he cannot, be cause he Is more likely tO want pr0tec- tiOn himself The relation between parents and children grows absurd when the children turn into men and w"Im"n.
