S WHAT THE TEUTON PEACE BID MEANS Stripped of its diplomatic phraseol ogy, CountC'zernin'sspeech ar tSrest--I JLitovsk nifans: V I That the ccatral powers will make ?o respiration or concessions whatso ever until and unless ail be?iflsri*nl* ?? vubtilNbe to iW -principle of "no for aible annexations or indemnities." That th^ central powers hope thus to draw Russia entirely to their side by branding allied continuations of war aimed at conquest. That?in the hypothetical case of the allies joining the peace negotiations ea the basis of the above principles ?Germany is willing. 1. To evacuate all occupied terri Belgium Serbia Montenegro and Rumania to political Independence. That Germany insists upon the re turn of her colonies and opposes Loyd George's plan to make the wishes and interests of the poulatlons the domi nant factor in the decision of heir fate. That Germany refuses: f. Ti restore Alsace-I^orralne. 2. To restore 'Prussian Poland. That Austr'ia-Hungary refuses: 1. To restore "Italian irrendenta." 2. To restore Hungary, Bohema and other formerly independent nat ionalises in the Hapsburg empire. rfiatffboth Germany and Austria Hnng?4P are willing to "protect the right* $of minorities"?which mani festly raters to the races and national ?4n the two empires for which the iM like President Wilson clalrAn _ the ot self-definition. That Germany and Austria-Hunga ry refuse to submit the drttjny of these races and nationalities to in ter !'m?uuul_ diauuaaiggr ? (The Poles, the French Inhabitants <A Alsace-Lorra'ne!" the ita liana. Cze eha and other races no a* under Aus trian rule are included in Count I'mf nin'j definition Of "inUiurluer*." 1 The Teuton offer is virtually an In vitation to all powers to return to the "status qua ante bellum." THOSE "EXCESS PROFITS If (.'ongrss has a real desire to e qualize the hardens of taxation that are to pay for the war. that body will be compelled to approach the question m a Jlff,ynrif ?from that?fld\r 'manifest. 1 If there is one that truth stands out more plainly than in any other in this counry, It is that capital and capital ists have been more favored than in any othir country on the globe. The United States has more prince ly incomes than any nation in the world. The profits from her indus tries are greater than those of any other country. U is the expressed, purpose to tax these incomes As to.J.he former, they are rtn trlhuting probably their share. It Is with the latter that we have o deal To the thoughtful person It would i appear that Congress should devise a i Just system of taxes on profits?not ? on excess profits. The pilila on Big ! ^Business have been enormous for j years, and there is realty little excess upon which to levy a tax. Take merely as an example, the United States Steel Corporation. That I concern is credited with a dividend Ir. , 1916 of $270,000,000. It In extremely j doubtful if their profits will much ex- j ceed that figure in 1917, which would | enable U. S. Steel to escape the excess I tax entirely. - Again asserted ttiat the tele- ' phone companies of the eountry clear- I ^d during the month of March last. ! Sl.oft on each telephone In usie 'in the j entire country. Bat'as their earnings ' have been enormous for some time, J i ~ they? too,--would escape with a very mo.dest excess. ?? !'.in iiiwl. lii:l ;.>rnuT worth las? than ;*59,0W, wft6 ttafres a prottt of flrMft wilk.be compelled to pay at l$ast $2, Umh- - - ? The Trnu^ticfe cf the entire scheme j can he seen at a glanc*. I The tax burden will not be eqTNtably I distributed so long as we persist In I dealing with excess profits. \Vhen we | begin to consider all profits we will | begin to make progress toward a cor, rect solution of the tax problem. There are many good souls, who in this hour of "rtn; nation's trial, would rttare the people escTiew the Tighter things In l!fe and give undivided at jtentlon to the serious buslneoa in | hand. This is all very welt-in the main, and we would not for the world (attempt to dUcourage any In such a | course. Still there are limits within I the human mind as welt as the hum an body must work Thrre to ft h Ob work no play makes Jack a dull boy."s> This is true from the cradle iVj*! grave. | The human mind is closely akin to the hijman stomach: Each, to do its beat work,-, must have a groundwork of solid diet. The strength and vir ility of each cornea from the heavier foods and would not long survive on j the frothy viands. Yet there is need of the latter, and they are as ne<*4s-, sary In their place as the heavier. It. Is a physiological and philosop- ] hlcal Tact that there Is no rest to com pare with the rest of change. The day laborer, with body tissues ex hausted and spent with fatigue, re. Quires absolute inaction to recuper his force. The man of sedentary halfta. confined within office walls and to Ms chair or his bench, finds greatest relief In physical exertion, ranging all the way from mild to strenuous. The student -of heavy science or phirosophy will soon go stale on a steady diet of theee things. and. Is dnly relieved by a liberal dash > of their, opposite*. Close observers 'of inen and events I have_noted that during the first few months of the war the- people of France were "absorbed by the more se rious business of repulsing the inva ders and amusements were given but littlo attention. Later on, however, "wtren tliu ten&ion Uman ta-telL_on the nerves of the people, there was a gra dual revival of the lighter phase of life, until now all over that country the comedy of life is as much in evi dent:? as the tragedy. The joke and the quip tho songs of the cabarret and and the jaz tunes are as popular in the trpnrttfiti as Sn +hi- nniUHHiirnf n-n tera of Paris. ? That this demand for change is uni versal in humanity, is evidencd very strikingly in the life of a famous Am erican humorist who, sated with his own wit. always found relaxation in a study of the heavy philosophies, while smother was an -accomplished student of Eastern mythology. We are told that the lower animals have no senap of humor yet from the i urimirfflffX" sire for recreation and play is immi nent. To^ even thelgplilMUed Intelli gence It ia accepted as one of the ne cessities of Mfe. If, as stated there is danger of much >f the cornjCrojp spoiling from a lack of men to gather it, our women might profitably follow the example o" their sisters jmTJWK^the waters and render much aid in savftfg this valuable crop. Gathering corn, while not strictly speaking suitable work for women, is still not beyond their ability. Worn en In Huropo are doing much of the farm #ork, much harder work than harvesting corn. It foould be a sp lendld exhibition of patriotism for our women to" volunteer for this service. STOMACH TROUBLES If you have trouble with your st1 mach you should try Chamberlain's TaMets. So many have -fieen festored to health by the use of these tablets and their cost is so little, 25 cens, that it is worth while tA give them a trial. / 4 ? - - / House and Lot for Salo I will sell my house and lot on the L-orncV Of* Chlirc^ nn,lr rnllnn.. ? eheep fur cash, or on reasonable terms.
