submitted? She has an international
debt of POP, OOO, OOO, 900, and a foreign
debt of 81, 5000, 10000 francs, reauir-
ing about nine million francs annually
for interest, even If nine billions owed
her by small allies are UNEXPECTEDLY
amoritized.
Political conditions, it would seem to
me, are so much more important at
the moment, namely, no more military
sanctions by France and reduction Of
the armies of occupation. What was
omitted at Genoa especially ON account
of the untimely Rasso-German treaty
should now take place in the way of a
thorough clearing up Of the Franco
German relations. The key to the
European peace temple is in Paris.
After Lloyd Georges invective and
the way France has been piIoryed as
a peace disturber she will be less in
clined than ever to disarm and abandon
her strategic Rhine positions. Dis
trustful fear, not hatred and conquest
explain her attitude. Her oldest ally
Russia, who nourished her distrust for
Germany, not only failed as a protector
but since 1917 has, turned against
France and is even trying to escape
her debt Of 2O.OOO,0OO,OO 900 gold francs.
The United States not only failed to
ratify the Versailles peace but vetoed
Wilson's promised guarantee. Great
Britain, who got all she wanted from
the war and will never allow Germany
to rebuild her fleet, expects resignation
from France, plays peacemaker and
threatens to dissolve the entente which,
after all, was merely the child of a
anti-German marriage and
takes Italy In tow, for a country with
a long coast line needing coal does not
dare risk the enmity of England.
Victory Ruined France
France is in a position which, if
It were unalterable, would be tragic.
BY an expenditure of a tremendous en-
ergy military surprising ali of her al
lies, she won a victory which ruined
her financially. The hoped for German
indemnity never came as recompense
for her losses and she has made a col
lective peace treaty which can be ef-
only with the consent Of all sig
natories. The French policy. wrongly
imperialistic, is cursed with un-
fruitfulness OF account of three mis-

There is still a chance that in the

Great Britain already has made her

impossible.

Great Britain is willing to enter such

Paris, May 20-One supreme conclusion evolves from the
finish of the Genoa conference, namely, that all the European
powers, with their hundreds of delegates and experts, conferred
from April 10 to May 10 without bringing about a single re-
suit. Impartial judges will agree that this is so.
There is room for reflection in this. There was to be a
great concerted effort toward economic reconstruction. 1t COM
pletely failed. What can one say except that the method was
wrong? If success now is desired then the other methods must
be found.
Lloyd George conceived the Genoa plan at the end of 1921
along the lines suggested by Keynes which he had scornfuny
flouted in 1919, but has since adopted. He offered this plan as
an economic one, although it was essentially political. He took
for granted that revision of the peace treaty was a prerequisite
to economic reconstruction. Starting from this hypothesis,
Lloyd George has struggled six weeks with failure as the result.
How can this surprise when you reflect that there were half
a dozen states in central and eastern Europe created by the
war and the peace treaties which never will agree to take any
such step? Thus we may conclude that if we desire to do any
constructive work economically it will be better not to begin
with destructive work.

BRIGHTS DISEASE-NO. II

Last week I gave you sosae papers on the kidneys and I hope inspired you to a eeper reverence for those wonderful organs than you ever had before.
 They are such quiet, busy, effective little organs, never giving any indica- ton of their presence in any manner unless they are abused, and sometime es not grumbling much even when they are abused.
 Their share of the body's work is to eliminate a large proportion of the poisons that are taken into the body. consciously or unconsciously, and some of the waste products of diges- tion and the natural result of the wear and tear of the body.

As you know, a great part of their work is eliminating the waste products of digestion. We can take all of this work away from them by not taking anything to eat for a few days.
 In most any acute illness, a. few days fast is extremely beneficial. But in Bright's disease the benefits are more marked than in other cases. Later milk and other bland foods are given.
 In chronic Bright's disease the trou- ble lasts over a. long period of time and it is obvious that the patient can not be starved continuously. Many people suffering with chronic Bright's disease actually bring lon the synp- toms of slow starvation in their eff

NECK AND THROAT MASSAGE.

NECK AND THROAT MASSAGE.
 There is never any reason for a neglected or upgly neck. nor any req son why the neck should grow old. Wrinkles are bound to come on sthe face. The chin line is certain to lose it's firmness. Sensible treatments can only minimize the effects or time, they cannot eliminate them. But the neck can be kept young as long as you have the patience to treat it.
 One reason for this is that you can exercise the neck and you cannot ex- ercise the face, you can feed the tis- sues of the neck with cocoa butter which the complexion could not stand. You can give the neck far more vigor- ous massage than the face would bear.
 No matter what your trouble is, be- gin the treatment by scrubbing the neck with warm water, a mild soap and a moderately stiff bristled flesh brush. This opens and cleanses the pores of the skin but. more than this, it stimulates and invigorates the muscles by bringing up 10 them !. fresh supply of blood. The pores be- ing opened the rest of the treatm lent is more effective. Cocoa butter or flesh building cream should now be massaged in if the neck is old or wrfnkled. otherwise cleansing cream is best.

CHAPTER I. IIEEl LIEEl

A very ordinary series of events had brought Cecelia Darrow to the w4Ids of New Mexico. Sidney Dar- row drank periodically, and drink turned him in to madman.
 In a fashionable restaurant the devil under Darrow's conventions had broken loose and there had been notorious mix-up with pistol, a wo- man, and a waiter, leading to news paper write-ups and threatened cr1- minal proceedings and Henedrson had suggested his ranch out in the wilds of Rodeo.
 Cecelia was thinking over this past story as she stood on the rough yer anda of the above house, gazing. off into the purple distances.
 Sidney at last!
 Man and beast approached with alarming rapidity. She strained her eyes to distinguish the shape of the approaching horseman. 1t%%as not Sidney. The man riding recklessly through the rough gullies seemed headed directly toward her. He sat tall in the saddle, his big slouch hat showing a white line against the tan of his forehead
 Then he rode by. It was Calder. who owned the next ranch eight or ten miles up the trail. He was a big man of splendid phys iQue.
 Cecelia sighed and resumed her un- easy watch for her brother. Inaction at length became unen- durable. After one more long look down the empty trail she went into her bedroom and donned her riding skirt, then ran out into the corral for the little cayuse she had learned to ride. Leaping to the pony's back she rode ont through the cOrral-gate. As she cantered past the veranda, the sun diped below the horizon. and presently desert and sky were suffus- ed in burning glow. She touched her pony with her little guirt and clung as he broke into a sharp canter. She rode on. making a wide detour, think ing that she would strike the trail a little later and meet her brother on his way back from Rodeo. The sunset faded, leaving the ranges cold, still wrapped in a dun-color ob- scuring as a floating mist.
 Suddenly the pony stopped short and nearly threw Ceceha from her seat. He snorted, cast one sidelong, frightened glance, and then gol1op- ed away.
 She tried to pull him in, but he had taken the bit between his teeth and plunged on madly.
 And now it was a, wild rush through the starlit dimness. Ahead was an oblong of heavier darkness. The pony stopped short sent CeceHa flying from the saddle, nver his head, and-down. How softly she landed. She tried to move but felt herself held firmly. She opened her eyes. She was in a mans arms.
