1t is to America that we have to look,
not only for the disinterested motive,
but the unexhausted power. If the re.
demption of Europe is left to Europe,
the main burden will fall on this eoun-
try, and our resources have gone with
the rest. We should not be able to
carry the burden, and might, like Ameri-
ca, have to return to our old policy of
isolation, leaving the continent to noun-
der in misery and become the prey of
some new military ambition. And in the
end the tragedy of the past five years
would be repeated and we should have
to begin again where we are to-day.
Ii that danger is to be avoided, and
if the league of nations is to be, not
a pathetic memorial of good intentions,
but an enduring reality, America must
stand in with Europe and see the thing
through. | do not think the president
has any doubt on the subject. He under
stands that the breach with the Wash
ington tradition is not incidental but
final. 1t was the expression Of true wis
dom in the past, but it no longer fits
the conditions Of the world. We can none
OF us--neither countries nor hemispheres
live in isolation again. The world Is
one and indiYisible and much as it may
dislike overseas responsibilities and much
as it may wish to be left in Voltaire's
phrase, ito cultivate its garden Amer
lea must take its full share in helping
the old world out of the pit into which
it has fallen. It has helped us to throw
off the old despotsm, but that is only a
part of the task, and the least part. Now
we have to find new way of life, and
America must help to heal the world
that she has helped to deliver. | think
that all the schemes Of the league, in
Guiding the American, provide that the
non self governing parts Of the world
shall each be administered by manda-
tory power responsible to the leauge. The
idea of condominium is dismissed as i'm
practicable and repudiated by experience.
America can do no better service than
by assuming it's share of this response
bihty and giving the world the example
of disinterested trusteeship.--"A. G. G."
in London Daily News.

A "WoRD TO AMERICA"
Says That We Must See the Thing
Through.

There is, found, another source of
disquiet on the subject of America. It
is notorious that there is considerable
body of opinion in the United States
in favor of withdrawal when the confer
ence has completed its work and re.
turn to the Washington tradition Of
isolation. The idea is that America en-
tered the war for a specific purpose, and
that, having completed the task, it
should wash its hands of European af-
fairs 1t is an argument which makes
a strong appeal to American sentiment.
1t fears being caught in the web of
the external world. It likes to feel that
it has been in the war without any in
terest of its own to serve. Moreover,
the experience in the Philippines has not
encouraged it to seek more overseas
tasks.
All this makes the movement repecta-
Bile and formidable. But | found the
gravest concern on the subject in the
most responsible British circles 1t is
felt that the withdrawal of America
from any share Of the trusteeship of the
league would be fatal. Europe has suf-
fered a catastrophe the measure of which
is only beginning to be understood. The
work of rebuilding the fabric Of Eu-
ropean society will occupy years and
will need all the resources Of civilization.

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy--If You Know DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to feel
young -- to do this you must watch your
liver and bowels -- there's no need Of
having sallow complexion -- dark rings
under your eyes ~- pinples --- bilious
look In your face --- dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety
per cent of all sickness comes from in-
active bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com.
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the substi.
tute for calomel, are gentle in their action
yet always effective. They bring about
that exuberance of spirit, that natural
buoyancy which should be enjoyed by
everyone, by toning up the liver and clear.
