FORMER PREMIER OF JAP AN DEAD;
 WELL KNOWN
(Continued from Page One)

and one to be reckoned with in shap- ing the destinies of the Japanese Empire.
 Called by the Emperor to become Premier in the course of passion ate struggle between the. forces of representative government and thos of. the Japanese bureaucracy, his ele- vation to the leading post in the Jap anese government in 1916 brought the clash between these opposing forces to issue, with Count Terau- chi as the focus.
 As the champion and one of the leading opponents of the ultra-con- servative bureaucracy, Count Terau- chfs appointment as Premier was attacked by the adherents of repre- sentative government on the ground that he virtually was selected as Pre- mier by the Japanese elder states men and that this little group of men exercised altogether too powerful an influence over the destinies and gov ernment of Japan.
 Representing OAly "AAAAOAA'' >AA the House of Representatives, Count Teraushi faced defeat in his meas ures to be submitted to that house. The conflict came to issue when the opposition introduced a resolution of lack of confidence but apparently at the advice of the Premier. the Elm peror forestalled the vote by dissolv- ing the House. New elections were ordered in April. 1917. and these were accompanied by vigorous attacks upon the Premier who was credited with the intention of again dissolving the House should the election be ad- verse to him.
 Count Terauchi was member Of the famous Choshu clan, from which have sprung renowned leaders of the Japanese army. He was born on February 5. 1852. at Nagato. and was the son of a samurai. He disting- uished himself. as a young soldier in the Imperial Guards Regiment, in putting down Saigo's Rebellion. in which service he was wounded in the right arm. as result of which that 1 arm thereafter was useless.

Allies Refuse to Grant Extension of
15-Day Limit
Paris. May 21.-The German plen-
ipotentiaries will deliver their OBJ
selvations on the peace treaty terms
today. No extension of time for
replying has been given them.
The general impression in confer
ence circles is that the Germans
ultimately will sign the treaty.
The answer of the Council of
-Four TO the German note regarding
Preparations, which was handed to
the Germans last night, points out
in reply to the German refusal to
admit responsibility for the war
that it is impossible to disassociate
responsibility from reparation.
The reply recalls that the Ger
mans raised no objection to Score
tary Lansing's note of last November
5, in which he spoke of German ag-
erosion. The Council of Four also
refuses to admit that the German
people may disclaim responsibility
fer the actions of the former Ger
man Government.
There has been no change in the
decision OF the Peace Conference
leaders not to make public at pres
ent the text of the peace treaty
presented to the Germans, notwith-
standing demands for its publication
from some quarters.

HERE'S WHY YOU SHOULD BUY
SEALS TO FIGHT TUBERCULOSIS

People who live In the smaller towns
and on farms have a great health ad'
vantage over the city jewellers is that
they have ever an abundant supply OF
fresh air and sunlight
These two gifts Of nature, SO lavish
" bestowed. are not always appreciat'
ed to their fullest extent. They are
two Of the strongest weapons against
the menace Of tuberculosis, or con-
sumption, a. It is sometimes called.
But consumption Is not unknown In
the rural districts. The death rate Is
sometimes as great In these sections as
10 the more crowded localities, chiefly
because Of carelessness or Indifference
~ laws Of health.
Few, indeed, are the farm houses
or the homes In the smaller cities and
villages that cannot have an outdoor
sleeping porch. On the contrary. we
often 6nd that the windows Of Sleep
ing rooms In the home are shut tight
in the mistaken belief that night air
is harmful.
This paves the way for disease. espe-
cialIy tuberculosis. which generally at
tacks the lungs.
White Plague Kills tso. 1000 . Year.
The white plague claimed 10000
lives last year in the United States.
More than 1,OOO, 900 Americans are suf-

are compiled from reports Of experts
all over the country and sent to the
National tuberculosis Association. the
leading agency In the country to COM
bat this disease. This organization Is

port is chiefly derived.
As medical science has proved con.
,umptionsis both preventable and cura-
Bile, the suffering caused by this dis
ease is largely unnecessary. Most tu-
berculosis victims are between the
ages OF eighteen and fOrty-f Ave.
Causes Halt Billion Loss Annually.
These are the years when people
are most active, the years Of their
greatest production. The snufing out
of these lives just when they are at
he height OF their usefulness means
IN annual loss to the country Of near
ly half billion dollars.
Fresh air IL the cheapest Of medi-
zines. Outdoor sleeping porches are
not OILY for the sick. They help well
folks to keep well. and the country
dweller can have this aid to healthy
;ivlcg at far less Inconvenience than
his city neighbOr.
You can help directly by seeing that
you and your family are living under
the most healthful conditions possible.
