amazed, that there should be in some
quarters such comprehensive ignorance
of the state of the world. These gentle
men do not know what the mind of men
is just now. Everybody else does. | do
not know where they have been closeted;
| do not know by what influences they
have been blinded but do know that
they have separated from the general
currents of the thoughts of mankind.
"And / want to utter this solemn
warning, not in the way of threat; the
forces of the world do not threaten, they
operate The great tides of the world
do not give notice that they are going
to rise and run; they rise in their ma
jesty and overwhelming might and those
who stand in the way are overwhelmed.
Now the heart of the world is awake,
and the heart of the world must be sat
isfed.
do not let yourself suppose for mo-
ment that the uneasness in the popula-
lions of Europe is due entirely to eco
monte causes or economic motives. Some
thing very much deeper underlies it all
than that.
"They see that their governments have
never been able to defend them against
intrigue or aggression, and that there is
no force or foresight or of prudence in
any modern cabinet to stop war and
therefore they say: There must be some
fundamental cause for this and the fun
damental cause they are beginning to
perceive to be that nations have stood
singIy or in little jealous groups against
each other, fostering prejudces, increas-
ing the danger of war, rather than con-
certing measures to prevent it; and that
if there is right in the world if there is
justice in the world, there is no reason
why nations should be divided in the
support of justice.
"They are therefore saying if you
really believe that there is right, if
you really believe that wars ought to be
stopped, stop thinking about the rival
interests of nations, and think about
men and women and children throughout
the world"

You can not overestimate the i'm

impurities. When you realize that the
heart is constantly pumping this vital

easily see that any impurity in the
blood will cause serious complications.
Any slight disorder or impurity that
creeps into the blood is a source Of
danger, for every vital organ Of the
body depends upon the blood supply
to properly perform It's functions.
Many painful and dangerous dis
eases are the direct result Of bad
