. She Got Rid of Those
Two Bad Mornings

Menstruation is perfectly natural
process, but the painful part is
NEEDLESS. Long study has abso.
lutely conquered menstrual pain.
Science now offers women reliable
and complete relief-in simple, ut
terly harmless tablet called midOl.
This newest achievement of the
laboratory has nothing to do with
drastic, habit-forming drugs that kill
pain by benumbing the whole sys-
tenn! Midol acts directly on the or
gans affected by menstruation, and
nowhere else. Yet relief and abso-
lutte comfort come in five to seven
minutes!
So, why have a twinge of pain
feel low" or even uncomfortable?
Or take anything to depress the
heart or upset the system? All drug
stores have midol in a thin alumni
mum box that tucks in purse or
pocket-for 40 cents.

"Wilhelm Who Was" as the ex-
Kaiser is referred to nowadays in the
popular mouth of Germany, sits in
his castle in Doom and spends his
time, apart from telling trees, in
warning the world against the con-
spiracies and the secret schemings of
the Jews. Does he ever in his long
hours of idleness think of his old
friend and adviser, Albert Ballin, the
dictator of the once powerful German
mercantile fleet, the most loyal of the
loyal, the man who in fog and the
darkness of night, in the same hour
that his royal master, the Kaiser, fled
from Army headquarters across the
Dutch frontier, drew a revolver in a
quiet corner of his palace in Hamburg
and put an end to his life? l should
hardly think that Wilhelm likes to
recall the memory of his old friend
Ballin. If the thought of him ever
comes into his head, it must be pain
ful because of the sheer logic with
which that noble friend of his, face
to face with the broken hopes upon
which they had built, drew the. con-
sequences Of the situation in an act
which Wilhelm the Actor would have
done much better to have followed. 1t
is well known that Wilhelm hated that
highly talented Jew, Walter Rathenau
and never allowed him at Court, be-
cause he envied him his nobility of
character 1t is not likely that the
noble manner in which Ballin ended
his noble life will equally have the
effect of preventing the Kaiser in his
exile from thinking kindly ever of
him who once was his greatest friend ?
Loyalty to His Country
The revolver shot which in Novem-
ber 1918 ended the life of Albert Bal
lin went almost unnoticed in the midst
of the wild and maddening whirl of
international politics of the time, of
the Armistice and the revolutions.
And yet that revolver shot was the
end of a tragedy which was much
more than the tragedy of one indi-
vidual life. 1t was not Ballin's per-
sonal losses which moved him to take

The Kaiser and His Jewish Friend
The Tragedy Of Albert BALM
BY MICHAEL wURMBRAND


his own life, it was not the breakup
of his business, for there could be
no question that the Hamburg-Amer-
lea line which he directed was big
enough to justify the hope, since JUS
tilted, that before long it would again
take its place among the first of the
big international shipping companies.
1t was much more than that. 1t was
the breakup of his beloved Germany,
the defeat of his Fatherland, and the
disgrace of his Emperor and his
House. Many an old general, many an
old leader of Ger,nany,s greatness,
took the step in those fateful days of
sacrificing his own life on the altar
of his country's failure. Yet the mo-
tive that moved them was always a
motive other than that which moved
the Jew, Ballin, the industrial leader
of Germany, to take his own life.
With all the others it was disappoint-
ment, disillusion, the breakdown of
the high hopes which they had held
of winning power by the War, of at
tanning greatness and authority. With
Balm it, was the bitter. realization
that what he had foreseen had come
about, that he had been true pro-
phet of woe, that if the warning had
been needed which he alone of all
those surrounding the Kaiser had
given, instead of the fattering words
of the courtiers and the generals, all
this would not nave happened. But
the impulsive Kaiser preferred to
listen to the fatterers and closed his
ears to the warning of his Jewish
friend. And even when he listened,
often he had no real power to do any
thing. For in the last year of his
reign, Wilhelm II. was no longer the
master of his decisions. The power
of Germany in those last few years
was concentrated in the General Staff,
in the military headquarters in the
field, and Ludendorff bore the sceptre
of Germany. And Ludendorf and the
General Staff, and the War Lords had
no use for the Jew, Ballin. Ballin saw
with almost mathematical exactness
how the blow was going to fall and

when, and he was helpless to keep it
back. There was the sword of Damo-
cles hanging over the head of his
friend, the Kaiser, over the head of
his beloved Fatherland. He saw the
hair by which it hung fraying, snap
ping, and the sword begin to fall.
And he could do nothing to keep it
from falling, and that broke his heart.
He could not live and see Germany in
misery, his Kaiser in exile. He pre-
ferred to take his life by his own
hands.
Balm as Mediator
Very often Wilhelm II. stayed as
guest at Ballin's house in Hamburg
and frequently he signed the most i'm
portante state documents on one of
the ships of this greatest of all Ger
many's mercantile builders. Ballin's
ships were the scene of brilliant gath
erings of noble lords and ladies', of all
who held the Kaiser in honor and
were held in honor by him. In these
intimate circumstances, it happened
more than once that the Kaiser was
in Ballin's presence unable to hide the
feelings which filled his heart, and
many time he poured out his heart
TO his trusted counsellor. When he
was in conflict with Bismarck il was
to Ballin that he came to unburden
himself. And Bismarck too used to
come to Ballin to speak his heart to
him. Yet all Ballin's efforts at media
tion between the two, between Ger
many's Kaiser and the builder Of mod
ern Germany, broke against the wall
built up by the intrigue of interested
parties. Field-Marshall Won Walder-
see tells US in his memoirs how BALM
complained 20 him that Prince Buelow
spoke only fiattering lies to the Kai-
ser. "That cannot last long" Ballin
had said, "the Kaiser is far too wise
not to be able to see through Buelow."
Waldersee himself comments: ~ think
differently. The Kaiser has not yet
grown tired of fattery"
When the relations between Germany
and England become very threatening
in the first decade of the twentieth
century because of the theatrical naval
policy of Admiral Won Tlrpitz. the
Kaiser was very much upset about it,
and his heart was filed with misgiv-
ings. And he came to Ballin to ask
him to try TO ease matters by inter-
venlng in England on his behalf Emil
Ledwig in his biography of Wilhelm
III writes in his regard.
