Doesn't it make you feel

when someone guesses your
age at ten years or so
younger than you really
are? You look into your
mirror, smile with satisfac-
ton and say to yourself:
We'll, he didn't make such
a bad guess, at that"
The point is: You're no
older than your vitality.
If a man is strong, vigor-

chance of living up to 80
than a man Of 80 who is
weak and rundown has of

of us can stay the years nor
stop time, we should all
make an heroic effort to sue
cessfully resist the effects
of time by ever keeping our
vitality at par.
When you sense a feeling
of slowing down of your

other organs show signs Of
weakness-when you notice

pERsHING MILITARY MEMBER
First Time United States Has Taken
Direction In Concert Of Powers on
This Most Serious Question.

Paris.-Led by President Wilson,
the supreme council of the great pow
,ers moved to unite the factions of dis
tracted Russia and bring them into
the peace congress.
They unanimously adopted a prop
osition brought forward by President
Wilson asking all the Russian fac
tions, including the bolshevists, to
meet the allied and associated gov
ernments at Princes islands in the
sea of Marmora on February 15, the
contending factions meantime declare
q truce and suspending all military
operations.
General John ]. Pershing, the Am
erican commander in chief, has been
called to Paris, and it is expected that
he will be the military member of the
American representatives of the joint
commission.
Aside from the Importance of the
conclusions reached, it was especially
notble as being the first time that the
voice of the United States had taken
the direction in the concert of Euro
pean powers on the most serious Eu-
ropeap question now presented.

The public was far from interested in
the murder Of two policemen in Tip
perary at the time the parliament was

beginning of Nv period of terror
ism, which veteran, Irish politics ex-
pect will include other assassina tions

On July IT, 1918, King George
awarded the grand cross of the Order
Of the Bath to General Pershing and
in August King George during visit
to France personally gave the decora-
tion to him. The award of the grand
cross Of the Order of the. Bath to a
British subject automatically makes
a. knight Of the recipient and gives
him the right to prefix "Sirs to his
name.
The decoration given General Per-
shing, however, was an honorary one
and it was said at the time that the
American commander would not re-
ceive the title of "Sir" as he was not
a British Subject.

'AMER|C1 MEMBERS
DELEGATIONS FROM GREATER
NATIONS TO PEACE CONFER
ENcE APPOINTED.
SIGNS OF DIVISION APPEAR
ciemenceau Fully Satisfied That The
Larger the Committee 10 the Less
Work Il Accompilshes.

Paris. - The peace conference
unanimously adopted the league of
nations program. President Wilson
and Colonel House are the American
members of the commission thereon.
The delegates Of the great powers
OF the league of nations will be: For
the United States, President Wilson
and Colonel House; for Great Brit
ain, Lord Robert Cecil and Gen. Jan
Christian Shuts; for France, Leon
Bourgeoise and Ferdinand Larnaude,
dean of the faculty of the law of the
University of Paris; for Italy, Pre-
mier Orlando and Viterio Scialoia; !;
for Japan, Viscount Chinda and K.
Ochiai. The delegates of the small
nations will be announced later.
The first signs of division in the
conference was when it proceeded to
consider the four resolutions framed
by the council of the great powers,
providing for committees on labor, re-
sponsibility for the war, reparation
for damages and ports, railways and
waterways.
Camille Huysmans, In behalf of
Belgium, asked for. two members on
the committees of labor, reparation
and the league of nations, and one
each on the other. Siberia made a
similar request.
Brazil was more emphatic, declar-
ing against ga cut and. dried pro-
gram"
M. Venizelos said that Greece was
entitled to membership on the COM
mittees of reparation and ports. M.
Bratiano, for Rumania, and DR..
Benes, for Czecho- Slovakia, as well as
the delegations representing Portu-
gal, China, Siam and Poland, also
asked for places on the committees.
M. Clemenceau finally, in good
tempered speech, said that the coun-
ell had not imposed its decisions, but
had simply convoked the conference
to consider the plan.
"After 48 years of public life," he
said, 81 am satisfied that the larger
the committee is, the less it accom-
plishes.

NO REPUBLIC Is WANTED sY
GERMANS OF THE RHiNELAND

Coblenz.-The results of the cleo
tions in the Rhineland cam be sum-
med up in few words. More wom-
en- voted than men, and the triumph
OF the centrist party is complete. The
monarchists voted with the clericals
against liberal tendencies. The So
cial democrats were badly beaten and
the extreme radicals received little or
no support.
Reports of results in Germany
proper-Germany beyond the Rhine
tell different story 1t is said at
Leipsic the social democrats met with
success, but as far as territory occu-
pied by the American, French and
British is concerned there can be no
doubt of the sentiment of the people.
They want no political upheaval.
They want no republic.

To Reduce Acreage.

Pinewood.-The recent decline in
the cotton market has aroused much
comment by the farmers OF this sec.
ton. The large farmers state that
they are going to reduce their cotton
acreage one-third this year and tho
smaller ones will cut off one-fourth.
Since the restrictions have been re.
moved of cotton seed they are being
freely used for fertilizer and this is
likely to cause many fertilizer orders
to be cancelled. The acreage in tobac.
co has been greatly increased as well
as the small grain acreage.

Esthonian Advance Guards viii Not
Attack Petrograd Until Outside
Help Can Reach Them.

Helsingfors.-Under title Of 1.-THE
Devil" a new paper is being pub.
lished in Petrograd by the soviets fcr
the sole purpose of attacking church
es and religion in general. The first
number contains an article by Iun.-
charsky, commissioner Of education,
announcing plan to close so church
es in Petrograd.
Other articles show the authorities
intend to impose a special tax on
churchgoers. Religious teaching in
schools is forbidden.
Recent speeches by Lenine and
Trotzky to the central Moscow SO
Wet are regarded as preliminary to a
complete surrender by the bolshevists.
Both leaders confessed the economic
system of bolshevist communism was
was bankrupt, especially in relation
to industrial production, finance and
the food question.
They said the time has come to in
vite exports of the middle class to CO.
operate with the soviets on an accept
able basis. A similar invitation was
addressed to the intelluctuals, who
declared they stood outside the civil
war. On the question of foreign pol
icy, Trotzky declared the soviet gov
ernment would, under certain condi-
hons, give up its internationalist aims
for the time being and raise the ban
ner Russia for Russians"
The bolshevist defeat at Narva has
become rout. The Esthonian ad-
vance guards are only 70 miles from
Petrograd. They intend to push on
TO Luga and Plussa rivers, thus en-
circling Pskoff, but have not intended
to attack Petrograd without outside
help.
