tonic for the blood. This strength
builder is made from a formula which
DR.. Pierce found most effective IN

alcohol and is an extract Of native
roots with the ingredients plainly
stated on the wrapper. Good red
blood, vim, vigor and vitality are sure
to follow If you take this Alternative
Extract. DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery clears away pimples and
annoying eruptions and tends TO keep
the complexion fresh and clear. This
Discovery corrects the disordered con-
ditions in q sick stomach, aids diges-
ion, acts as a tonic and puri1es the

arrangement with France that doesn't
contemplate eventual evacuation
of the Ruhr. - tE
This is pretty elastic.
If France can have the Ruhr to
milk" indefinitely, sooner, or later
size ought to be able to get her rep
arations out of the region, and if re-
covering the district Eventually" is
good enough for Germany, it doesn't
seem as if there "a be any reason,
so far as the Germans r concerned
why France shouldn't do this.
After all, the two countries may
not need outside mediation. Maybe
they'll fix matters up between them
selves.
A good many people are likely to
come to the conclusion that the
French and German iron and steel
magnates have come to- an agree
ment, which, the dispute having
been primarily between them all the
time, as it's widely suspected, prob
ably is all there it to it,
Of course there are iron and steel
magnates in other countries who
may not be suited, however. If SO,
they'll be heard from later.
Not Worth a Fight
News from Turkey is good, too.
True, the Turkish national assembly
at Angora has turned down the pro-
posed treaty which an international
group of diplomats worked so long
over at Lausanne, Switzerland--a
treaty which it was said the Turks
had got to accept, or there'd be war
between them and the British, to a
dead certainty. ~ 3
But now that it's definitely known
the Turks aren't going to accept it,
everybody says carelessly, in effect:
"Oh, well, eve mind, it'll all be
fixed up satisfactorily, anyway"
How Gomez" you ask.
Well, they do say that experts
have investigated the oil deposits in
the Turkish province of Mosul,
which British claimed as theirs to
administer, under a ri ing IF the
League of Nations, and that the
value Of these deposits has been
found to have been greatly exagger-
ated-not worth fighting about, in
fact. s.
