CLAIRE OFFERS HER SKIN.

A Los ANGELES evening paper
~ n few weeks ago printed an APP
peal for two square inches of
skin to save a young girls beauty
and eyeslght. Claire Du Brev saw the
story the day she finished her work
in Brace Up" the Herbert Rawlin-
son production. The actress knew she
would have a few days to herself be-
fore she was cast in another feature.
Contrary to general belief, this par
tcular vampire" has a large heart,
and IT was deeply touched. No n
realizes more clearly than an actress
the handicap a woman is under unless
she possesses beauty or great per
sonal magnetism, and to have owned
beauty and then lose it is the cruellest
fate imaginable for a Young girl. To
clinch the matter in Miss Du Brey's
mind, she recalled the suffering she
had witnessed during her training in
the Los Angeles County Hospital six
years ago. She had completed her
schooling in this way, her father be-
ing a firm advocate OF at least three
months training in q hospital for
every girl to prepare her to meet the
emergencies of life.
Miss Du Brey teiephoned the doe
tor in charge of the case:

CAUSES WILD UPROAR
DR.. Dernburg Says Peace Should
Be Negotiated.
Germany Can Only Maintain Leading
Position by Making Moral
Conquests.

Amsterdam, July 15.-Dr. Bernhard
Dernburg, former German colonial
minister. during a debate in the Prus-
sian upper house, argued that a peace
was never concluded on the battle.
field alone. Without the cooperation
Of diplomacy, he declared, no peace
could be established.
IL Prussia, said DR.. Dernburg, is to
maintain her leading position she must
make and continue to make moral con-
quests.
Il am rather doubtful whether she
has succeeded in this" he added.
Shouts of Contradiction.
There were shouts of contradiction
at this and the extremist Junker, Herr
Oldenburg- -Janulchan, replied with a
famboyant discourse on the greatness
of the house of Hohenzoliern, whose
members, he said. had ever educated
themselves and their people to fight
and die for the state.
"Dr. Dernburg is the last man who
ought to talk about moral conquests," I"
he added. Such things lead to ban
quets In honor Of the American ambas-
sador, Gerard"
DR.. Dernburg replied:
II never regarded Mr.. Gerard as a
fit object for moral conquests. did
attend the banquet in question, but so
did the vice chancellor and the secre-
tary of state for foreign aairs."

How Insurance 10 Paid.

Washington, July 15.-Widespread
impression that insurance of men in

ance is payable on the death OF the
insured on the basis OF $5.75 per month
for each $1,000 of insurance for 240
monthly instalments. For the maxi

TO KEEP BELGIUM AS PAWN
To Be Used at Peace by Germany,
Says Chancellor.

Copenhagen, July 15.-Denial that
Germany intended to retain Belgium
was made by Count Won Hertl,ng, Ger
man imperial chancellor, in the course
OF his speech before the reichstag
main committee. THE present pos
session of Belgium only means that
we have pawn for future negotia-
tions," the chancellor said. I'VE have
no intention to keep Belgium in any
form whatever
Il maintain the standpoint of the
imperial reply to the peace note of
Pope Benedict. The pacific spirit that
inspired this reply has also inspired
me. At the time. however, added that
this spirit must not give our enemies
free conduct for an interminable con-
tinuation of the war.
President Wilson wants war until
we are destroyed, and what Mr.. Bal
four, British secretary of state for for
eign affairs, has said must really drive
the flush of anger to the cheeks of
every German"

WILSON VETOES BILL
President Objects to Raising
Price of Wheat to S2.40.
Message Declares Measure Would
Add Materially to General High
Cost of Living.

Washington, July 15.-The annual
Appropriation bill containing an amend
ment increasing the price of wheat to
$240 per bushel has been vetoed by
President Wilson.
Members of Congress from wheat
growing states will make a fight to
pass the bill over the veto, but indi-
cations are that the wheat price pro-
visions will be eliminated.
The Presidents message said the in
crease in the price of wheat would add
50 to the cost of barrel of -four and
would add $685., 100000 to the price
of the 900,O00,0O0 bushel crop of 1918
wheat. 1t also would cause a cores
ponding increase in the price of Ca
madam wheat, the message said, and
would add very materially to the gen
eral high cost of living.
