How Hun Rulers Prepare
Peace Driue on Allies

til the latter's defeat by the allies IS
certain and decisive.
Doubtless Turkey chafes under
the Teuton yoke and the masses
know that they have been betrayed.
Doubtless, too, the Bulgars realize
the selfish aims of Germany and that
their country is as much a pawn IN
the game as Belgium and Serbia.
They also see the allies advancing
along the Albanian and Macedonian
front and know that Austria is pow
erless to help. for that country is fast
falling to pieces. The whole central
alliance is, in fact, crumbling, and
no one knows this so well as Ger
many. But something can be saved
from the wreckagc while the war
fronts are as they are. So news IS
coming through Germany in forms
which suit her purpose and will help
a new peace offensive.
This. it is expected, will come by
way OF Rome through Switzerland.

best friend. 1t cannot permit Ans

When Potsdam is not deceiving
the German people with news of sub

tories and peace offensives the lies
factory is manufacturing ersatz
news or news substitutes for allied
consumption. Thus the world gets,
via Holland, tidings of the sickness,
breakdown and even death OF Hin
denburg-anything which will tend
to make the allies believe that some
thing is wrong with the German
military machine and cause them to
be less active in pushing on their
own preparations. The idea that
there are several loose screws in the
machinery of the central alliance is
encouraged by news OF Turkish and
Bulgarian disputes, and we are per-
mitted to hear that Ferdinand has
left his capital because OF the pre-
vailing political unrest
The latest item which has been al
lowed to come through via Denmark
is that Turkey has broken with Ger
many. This should be received with
the greatest caution. Turkey,
through the upstart Enver and the
unspeakable Talaat, has been hand
ed over as an appanage to Germany.

THE CASE CLEARLY
STATED

In December, 1917, Lloyd
George stated the case thus
The people who think that they
can begin new era OF peace
while the Prussian military power
is unbeaten are laboring under a
strange delusion. We have been
dreaming of a new world.
The Old World, at least, be-
lieved in ideals. 1t believed that
justice, fair play, liberty and
righteousness must triumph in
the end; that is, however you in
terpret the phrase. The Old
World believed in God and staked
its existence on that belief. Mil
lions of gallant young men vol
unteered to die for that divine
faith. But if wrong emerged tri-
umphant out of this conflict, the
New World would feel in its
soul that brute force alone
counted in the government OF
man; and the hopelessness OF the
dark ages would once more fall
on the earth like a cloud. 10 re-
deem Britain, TO redeem Europe,
to redeem the world from this
doom must be the settled pur-
pose of every man and woman
who places duty above ease. This
is the fateful hour Of mankind.
If we are worthy OF the destiny
with which it is charged, untold
generations of men will thank
God for the strength which He
gave us to endure to the end.

BANNING LEMON EXTRACT.

Lemon extract is not commonly
thought of as an intoXicant. Yet
the state sheriff Of South Dakota
found it necessary. according to a
news item, to prohibit its sale in
stores of that state.
South Dakota lemon extract it is
alleged. contains frob so to 90 per
cent of alcohol. Judging by appear
ances there was a great boom in
lemon pie and cake and pudding
when prohibition went into effect
in South Dakota 4 little more than a
year ago. At least, grocers and drug
gists noticed a sudden increase in
the popularity of lemon extract. The
people who were most eagerly buy
ing it on every occasion were not
always housekeepers. In fact, a
good many OF them proved to be
former patrons OF saloons. Retail
dealers drew their own conclusions
as to the real reason for the abnor-
NAL demand for this flavoring eX-
tract.
The sheriff must have drawn sim
liar conclusions, for he prohibited
its sale, leaving the population OF
South Dakota confronted with two
problems according to its various at
titudes toward the liquid in ques-
tion. Housewives have to find sub
stitute for lemon extract in the pre-
paration OF foodstuffs. and anti-pro-
must find new bever-
age.
