ART NOT ACQUIRED BY ALL
Really Proficient Nasger Is Born So,
but Accomplishment Is One That
Can Be Acquired.

NaEging your husband is special
art by Itself, and while some women
have natural gift ia that direction
others can only acquire ii by constant
application. A husband in n house is
something like hippopotamus. He Is
often dull, placid creature, hard to
love or dislodge, especially If he gets
accustomed to favorite chair He
often becomes toughened by exposure
to constant nagging, and It takes II
powerful weapon with fairly higi
trajectory to do him any damage. &c
casionaliy, however, he develops sen
sitlve areas, and can become a con.
stant source of pleasure to any lady
who likes to nag.
Every woman knows, of course. thai
her husband Is more susceptible about
half an hour before dinner. when ht
has come home from the Office tree

month when She can nag him with III.
highest percentage OF bull's-eyes.
The art Of naeging, however. ia no'
all objective Much can be done from
the subjective standpoint BY intima,
ing 10 her husband In many way
which she can easily learn by prac
rice, that she is the most abused lad.

gram Of amusement. The historica

Some wives, however, SO blind or,
hey, never see this at all. They jus

LEAVE IT TO FOCH

We have the German reply to President Wilson's latest
note, and it goes very far to justify the position of those who
commended in the beginning that the correspondence opened
by Prince Max was intended as a play for time and a move of
the German Junkers to retain their power. The American
people were quick to recall the series of notes that followed
the sinking of the Lusitania, covering a period of nearly two
years, in which Germany was tremendously strengthened and
the allies weakened through the collapse of Russia, strongest
in numbers of Germany's foes.
And with every note that passed Germany became holder
and holder, until thoroughly convinced, according to our. own
ambassador, that America would not fight.
In the meantime her submarines were multiplied in
numbers
Germany still clings to the doctrine that she may use
Belgium as a pawn" and that in withdrawing from there
her military position, as compared with that of her adversar-
of a burglar when cornered who would offer to quit the
premises on condition that he might be permitted to carry his
loot to a safe distance. For Germanys position in Belgium is
that of the bandit and has never been anything else. But for
her violation of an agreement she had signed and which the
rest of the world expected her to keep she would never have
been in Belgium nor in France, for safeguards would have
been taken to prevent it.
Germany still wants an honorable peace. The pride of
the German people must not be offended. That would weak
en- the Junkers.
Was that the kind of peace Germany gave to Russia?
What that what she gave to Roumania? Was that what she
gave to France? Was that the kind of peace she was talking
about a few months ago, when the mailed fist" was to en-
force submission to the German will and enforce the collec-
ton of indemnites to repay to Germany and her allies their
entire cost of the war?
When Germany settled with France after her last war she
proceeded, in the language of Bismarck, to "bleed France
white" She also insisted on marching her troops through
Paris and holding the peace conference on French soil, at YER
sailles. The civilized world will now insist that the coming
man soil; that the arch invaders shall not be permitted to say
that their own soil was not entered.
1t is time to stop writing notes.
Let the next note-if there be one-be the last.

DEALING WITH BANDITS

Senator Lodge did well yesterday to call attention to the
fact that in spite of all the protestations of reform In their
government, the placing of all power and responsibility in the
hands of a reichstag chosen by the people, the German gov
eminent remains the same. There has been no election, no
new constitution, and it is the same old reichstag.
1t is the same old reichstag or debating Society that
passed the famous resolution of July, 1917, opposing annexa-
lions and indemniies. This was when Germany was seeking
the downfall of Russia. 1t later gave silent approval while
Germany was dividing Russia and Roumania and imposing
and collecting indemniies.
1t is the same old reichstag that applauded Won Hertlng
when he referred to invaded Belgium as a pawn" to be used
at the peace table. And even this came after Germany realiz-
ed that her dream of anneXing Belgium and northern France
up to the channel ports was a dream only. No bandit ever re-
vpaled i'm starkpr nakedness his moral depravity, or did it with
more perfect abandon than Won Hertling, spokesman of the
emperor. employed when he thus stripped the German char
acter i'm the presence of the representatives" of the German
people-and was sustained by them. In morals the kidnap-
per who steals a child for ransom in an angel of mercy by
comparison: he seldom murders the child or commits murder
or arson to capture it; the Black Hand Society that EFFORTS
money by threats of violence is a Sunday school band.
The United States has had experience with bandits before.
Some years ago a Moroccan chief named Raisuli captured an
American citizen named Pericardis and carried him to a
mountain retreat. The bandit then got word to the outer
world that Pericardis would be surrendered without injury on
the payment of a certain large ransom. Theodore Roosevelt,
then president of the United States, promptly replied that the
only terms of negotiation would be "Pericardis alive or Raisuli
dead The captive was promptly delivered to a Moroccan
port and placed aboard a war ship.
That kind of language is appropriate to the present stu
alton. 1t is the only language the Potsdam gang can under
stand. And they can't use it to fool their people in prolong-
ing the war.

THE INTERNATIONAL "CARD-sHARK"

When German kuHur gets away from home it makes a
mess" of things, and as the years pass after this war the
German at home is going to see himself as the world has
seen him.
In a public meeting in Berlin this week Won Capelle,
minister of marine, or former minister, and in charge of sub
marines, referring to Germanys treaty of peace with Russia,
asked: "n whose hands have we been?" And answering
his own question, he said: when Russia collapsed two men,
Kuehlman and Czernin, were at work, who brought upon us
the reputation of card sharpers"
Capelle is now speaking frankly about his associates.
But are not these the same Kuehlman and Czernin with whom
America and the rest of the world were asked to deal? And
did they not speak, as Capelle did, for those two rulers "by d-
vine right" William of Germany and Charles of Austria
Hungary? And isn't this the same Germany that sent
Bernstein and Won Papen and Boyd and their precious
bunch of rattlesnakes to make love to us while planting their
arson plots and their poisonous propaganda in our political
system, as they did with fatal results in Russia?
Yet Germany is still peeved when the world questions
her sense of honor.
And this is characteristic of every card-shark.

LUTHERANS DISOWN HIM

For The manyth time it is again explained by the Luth-
eran churches that the kaiser is not member of that church.
The 4iOhenzollerns left it a hundred years ago to join what is
called a United Evangelical church, which is the royal church
of Prussia. In this church the teachings of Luther are min
gled with those of Calvin. 1t was an attempt, no doubt, to re-
unite the schools, but the Lutherans said that many of thu
evils that have come upon their land came through this con-
fusion in religion. However, there does not appear to be
enough real Christian religion left in all Germany to regen-
crate a corporalis squad-it is a mixture of superstition, blind
obedience and resultant materialism in the form of protests
and revolts. 1T is only where religion is intelligent as well as
free that it works out the finer qualities of the human mind
and heart, of which we have the best evidences in America.
where, in spite of al. that has been said to the contrary, we
have attained a high idea of human conduct of which our I'M
selfish and altruistic participation in this war is the best evil
dence. The religions that are distorted by kaisers and cZars
do not work out any lasting good among a people. 1t is only
when peoples have some degree of DIFFERENTIATION in this
as well as in their governments that they reach ideals.

SENATOR LODGE AND THE PRESIDENT

Senator Lodge need make no apologies for not being in
entire agreement with the note that was sent to Prince Maxi
milan, or rather to the German government. The senator is
entitled to his own views, and so is every other man. We
have not yet reached that abject state in which every one of
us has to agree with even the commander-in-chief in a great
war. That smacks too much of Germanism and kaiserism,
which are things that we despise. The Americans and all
free peoples are great because they can think and speak for
themselves. Senator Lodge has a right to believe that a
categorical No would have been a better answer. That is
the kind of a reply that was sent to Austria, previously, and,
as Mr.. Lodge said, it was at once acclaimed as the expression
of the American people. And Senator Lodge has stood by
the president when men of his own party, like Hitchcock,
Champ Clark, Kitchen, Stone, Reed and others, would have
scuttled the war and even our national honor.
There is no use in denying it. A great many Americans
felt about this matter as Mr.. Lodge had the courage to express
Macmillan on the theory that he is different from the rest
of the gang; that Germany should be told all the time that the
way to peace is the way of surrender, and there can be no
conditions attached to the surrender.
AT the same time it is easy to understand that the presi-
dent had motives in writing the note, and the motives may be
good ones, and the Tribune believed and still believes they
were. First of all. we believe, it was the desire of the presi-
dent to forestall any appeals on the part Of the German mill
tarists to the people of Germany, based on allegations that it
was the desire of the allies to destroy them, not to give them
peace, even when they asked for it.
The president had a hard situation to meet, and while we
may not all be agreed as to his course, yet none of us can say
that it was not the best policy that was pursued. But in the
meantime we continue to adhere to the right to think and
even to speak for ourselves-that is Americanism and the
other thing is something else. And it happens to be the very
thing we are fighting over in Europe.

UKRAINIA AND THE BREST-LITOVSK SUICIDE

In Ukrania the revolt against the Germans has taken the
form of a railroad strike designed to break down all transpor-
tation and thus to keep the Germans from drawing grain and
other foodstuffs out of the country. Efforts have been made
to substitute German soldiers for the strikers, but these have
not been successful. Secret circulars, it is admitted by Berlin,
have been circulated, calling upon the people to resist the
German oppressors.
"Brethren," so runs one appeal, 1--WE have suffered from
the imperial dogs long enough. Support the strike and
: be ready to hurl yourselves upon the cities" The Ger
mans say that all this is a fOreign-financed propaganda, but
they are not able to cope with it.
Nothing has so concusively shown the unftness of the
Germans to direct the destinies Of others as their conduct in
Russia. Some go so far as to say that it was the making of
the Brest- LitOvsk treaty that proved the undOing of the Ger
mans in the east. Russia was down and out, and it was at
the mercy of the Germans. Instead of administering it's af-
fairs wisely, through which confidence might have been re-
tered it like a gang of ruffans, robbing and despoiing the
people who had surrendered to them, or had at least been
overcome by them. There is hardly a parallel for their con-
duct. Russia was Systematically plundered and its public
life debauched.
The stupid Russians We're luled with promises of no in
IDENTITIES and no annexations and, having surrendered in that
faith, the Germans betrayed them, exacted indemnities that
were stupendOus and annexed a series of provinces. including
the whole Russian Baltic seaboard. Every pledge was brok-
en-, every possible outrage committed. Germany showed
the Prussian beasts nature and lost the confidence of people
been pacified, but it has been aroused instead. and when the
Ukrainians call them Imperial dogs" they are telling only a
part of the truth about them.

The thought that Turkey might have been kept out of the
war if the British diplomats had been more adroit is not one
that comforts us at the present time. On the contrary, we
should all be glad that Turkey did get into the war, for it will
enable the allied nations to s%traighten out things in Asia
Minor as well as in Europe. For a hundred years we have
heard about the atrocities of the Turks, and while this big
war was ON it was a good time to settle scores with those bar
barians. The outcome of this war is going to mean a free
Armenia and a freed Palestine. If the Turk had discreetly
remained out of the war he might have gone on holding his
possessions. But having entered the war as an ally of the
Germans, he must take his chances in the outcome. Having
taken up the sword, he must now perish by the sword.
After all, that alleged stupidity of the British diplomats
in handling the Turkish situation may be hardly less than a
prOvidential outcome.

And what will be said in the peace terms about the per-
sonal loot that has been assembled by the crown prince? 1t
is said that many houses in the devastated districts of France
have been looted, literally stripped for his personal benefit.
He has had precious works of art conveyed to his various
houses in Germany. He has evidently desired to surround
himself with the luxuries and refinements of the French. He
has always been enviOus of French culture and also covetous
of it. He has been literally crazy to Parisize himself. AS a
thief and a robber, a lOoter and a p~lunderer, he has attracted
attention even among German invaders and they are the worst
that have ever been let loose in the world.
