Kaiser q Private Citizen
The question of what is to become
of the Kaiser Is one which no man
can even pretend to discuss with any
authority. He is now a private citi-
zen. As such it would appear that
being in neutral country he IL sub
1ect to the laws of that country. In
my opinion, Germany will not ask to
have him returned. and it is highly
improbable that any step will be made
by England to press indictments
which may have been handed down
against him in English courts. Sup
pose during this war that President
II would not appear that interna-
uonal law could be intoked for his
delivery and trial in Germany.
True, England could invade Hol
land and by armed force take the
Kaiser. but such a step cannot be
seriously put forth as a probability.
Various fates have fallen to various
rulers shorn OF power. There is moth

of the Kaiser can be considered"
Another authority who declined to
be quoted because of the slight pre-
cedence in law for such questions as
those now brought forward, said, In

For the Simple Life.

AS a race, we are constantly dying
before our time, and very often lead
ing forlorn lives, making those around
us miserable, simply because we are
disobeying the simple laws OF life, and
among other things poisoning ourselves
with bacterial infections. thus causing
this very condition Of autO-intoxica7
ton, writes DR.. w. ii. Vail, in Chris
ton Herald.
Our plea, first, last and all the time,
is for the simple life. which is not
necessarily a vegetarian diet. only 1t
SO happens that the vegetable kingdom
supplies the best articles Of diet, in
our estimation. AS we have said, add
milk and eggs to the vegetables and
you have the perfect diet. Eliminate
the food stimulants, for they crea-. an
artificial appetite, thus leading people
10 cat<morc than the system can ap-
propriatc, and causing auto-intoxica-
tion, with its deadly results.
