Three-year-old Mary Ellen demands
reason for everything and some OF
the reasons are mothers sudden inspl-
rations. Sometimes she passes them
on to other children. The other after
noon group of children was talking
to the wee miss, all giving her that
sort Of CONNECTION known as "taffy."
Mary Ellen ate it with relish. Sud-
denly she turned to the child nearest
her, do you think I'm pretty2 Don't
you think I'm sweet2" she asked.
He answered in the Affirmative.
'Well," she smiled sweetly, tiny
mamma found me in a peach basket"
Two or three of the children giggled
but twelve-year-old Arthur sprang gal
lantly to the rescue. "No wonder
you're such little peach" he re-
turned.

GERMANY AND
ALLIES AT PEACE
Ceremony Held at Paris
U. S. Only Nation at War
With Germany.

Paris.-Ra tifications Of the treaty
Of Versailles were exchanged, and
peace between Germany, France, Great
Britain and the other allied and asso-
ciated powers, with the exception of
the United States, became effective
at 4:16 p. m. Saturday. There were
eleYenth-hour rumors Of a further post
ponement, but these proved to be
groundless.
1t leaves the United States the only
power which was actively at war with
Germany not now on peace basis
That was the note sounded by Baron
Won Lersner, head of the German peace
delegation, in statement immediate
ly after the ceremony.
Il am naturally happy that peace
has finally become effective" Baron
Won Lersner said. my great regret is
that the United States is the only
country with which Germany is still
in a state of war. l hope, however,
that this situation will soon be
changed.
The execution Of the treaty of Yer
sailles imposes upon Germany the
heaviest sacrifices ever borne by ma
ton in modern times. We lost in the
west and in the east territories that
belonged to Prussia for many cen
turtles. We have assumed enormous
economic obligations. Nevertheless,
am glad that peace is at last re-
established, because it will give back
to Germany her beloved sons still pris-
OneTs abroad"
Peaceful relations between Germany
and the greater number Of the nations
engaged in the great war with her are
established by the action taken at
Paris Saturday. The peace treaty now
goes into effect as between Germany
and those powers that have finally
ratified it-Great Britain, France, Bel
GUM, Italy, Japan, Bolivia, Brazil, Qua
Ntemala, Peru, Poland, Siam, Czecho-
slovakia and Uruguay.

ENJOYED WELL-W0N HONORS
Some Men Of Genius Who Lived Many
Years After Their Fame Had
Been Assured.

Sophocles, the famous Athenian
dramatist, lived to be ninety. The au-
thor Of "Ajax" is the Oldest writer
and he is unique in his degree OF
longevity. The next IN point of age is
Thomas Carlyle, the author Of "Sartor
Resartus" and ''The French Revolu-
hon," and other works of noble con
ception, undOubted brilliance, and
lofty aspirations. He died at the age
Of eighty-six.
Jeremy Bentham, whose disciple
was John Stuart Mil, and who is the
author of works on government, ''The
Principles of Morals and Politics." and
other lucid expositions of the utili-
tartan system, underlined Carlyle by
one year; while Voltaire, whose "Philo-
yophical Letters" and "Discourses of
Man" make his name to live, died at
the age of eighty-four.
