'T WILL be noted that Dr. von Kuehlmann, the German Secretary for Foreign Affairs, yields to none in profound admiration for Germany's reply to the Vatican peace proposal. A “landmark,” standing “like a strongly constructed building in which each stone is so firmly fixed that any attempt to remove it could react only to the injury of those who engage in the task,” is Dr. von Kuehlmann’s characterization of this marvellous document in which “the German people and the German Government” have} been enabled “to set forth again their national policy in a clear, unambiguous manner.” We observe the Imperial Foreign Secretary puts “the German people” first. But lest this should give rise to misunderstanding, he hastens solemnly to assure the world that “all attempts of the enemy to drive a wedge between the German people and the German Government on the question o/ the vasis of our foreign policy and by the propagation of the fiction that the German people do not stand behind the Kalser and the Imperial Chancellor will be repulsed {n the most crush: ing manner. * ¢ © From the American point of view, this assurance—even without more articulate indorsement from the German people—might be depressing were it not for the fact that it is now some time since the | Unite?

The} costly furs of Mrs, Stryver and Mrs. | Mudridge-Smith were laid out to view on Mrs, Jarr’s bed, Miss Amanda Peckstein Flint, the salaried efficiency expert, called the meeting to order, by Introducing Mrs, Jarr, the hostess of the day, “It is very sweet of you to come to my crampe®@ little home for our meeting to-day,” said Mrs. Jarr, “Es- pecially when Mrs, Stryver and Mrs Clara Mudridge-Smith have offered thelr larger homes, and the Baroness Holstein has suggested that abe could have secured one of the meet- ing rooms at the Hotel St, Vitus for us.” “We are plain business women, | hope,” said Miss Amanda Peckstein Flint. “We should have a plant, operating on one floor, The raw ma- terlal coming in at one end and be- ing assembled into the finished prod- uct, and as such delivered, f. 0, d., at the other end. But as our product is limited at tho present time, we may meet here just as well as any other place.” It occurred to Mra, Jarr that the output of the Ladies’ War Roller League was quite restricted, indeed, secing that all the funds were being used up to pay Miss Flnt’s sai as an efficiency expert, and also for the card Index system that she had purchased to instal, as soon as tho league had offices, “We will have to raise the dues ladies,” said Miss Flint, in a@ voice ‘as sharp as the edge of a steel cut- ting tool, "This !s a dead open and| shut business proposition. so far as I am concerned.

The others felt relieved that the old lady from Indiana was to be a non-paying or lay member, She was 4 good soul, but sho had a habit of going about at times with a shaw! over her head, and this, as the Baroness Holstein remarked, was ex- tremely declasse, The Baroness herself welched on the assessment, saying she would do press work for the league !n lieu of dues.

Kance—that Is the first dread rock of disaster that wrecks the happiness of the young married couple who buy on the installment plan in order to keep up appearances as good as their neighbors, A vain woman Is not always a #tn- ful woman—in the eyes of soctety.

And nearly always she is @ sinful woman in the eyes of God, for she ia flattering ber vanity and serving her- SHORT time ago a fifteen-year- old girt visited some relatives in a nearby town, her parents allowing ber tu go unchaperoned.

The story of finding it on the train was, of course, a pure fab- rieation. I can understand the mother's agl- tation and grief at the circumstance. Vanity inspires more sins among women than any other cause! The girl outcast on the street sinned, nine times out of ten, because she wanted pretty clothes and jewelry that she could not afford, It is vanity that causes extrava- both. And she Is invariably @ receptive subject for the first whispers of that sin which emphasizes her vanity.
