PRUSSIAN SIATES MAY VOTE ON RATIFICATION

.ml „i

PARIS, July ll.—Ratification of the treaty of peace by the German national assembly at Weimar may be held not to be sufficient, according to the Petit Parlsien. The new German constitution provides that in cases where territory was ceded the ratification of treaties by states which lose territory is necessary in addition to approval by the central government.' Consequently independent action by Bavaria, for the Saar basin, and Prussia for territory restored to Poland, may be required.

It may be said, the newspaper says that the new constitution had been only partially accepted when the treaty was ratified, but it adds: -fcIt is imperative to avoid giving German legal experts a pretext for proclaiming the nullity of the treaty."

What Kind of Quinino Do You Take?

The Quinine used in Qrova's Tastelm chill Tonlo possesses more Tonic and Strength-Building Qualities than ordinary Quinino, All Quinine is derived from Cinchona Bark or what is generally known as Peruvian Bark. There are two kinds of Cinchona or Peruvian Bark. The yellow bark and the red bark. The ordinary quinine which la used by physicians and used in the home is made from the yelkxw Peruvian Bark. Some 35 yean ago, we discovered that the quinine obtained from red Cinchona Bark or red Peruvian Bark contained more tonic and strength-building properties than the quinine obtained from the yellow Peruvian Bark also that the quinine obtained from the red Peruvian Bark does not cause nervousness or ringing in the head or disturb the stomach like the ordinary quinine obtained from the yellow bark, making it especially adapted to children and delicate Adults who cannot retain anything of a nauseating nature. The quinine obtained from the red bark is very bitter, but by a special process of our own, we have rendered it unsoluble in syrup and, therefore, practically tasteless as is shown in Erovs'd Tasteks* chltl Took.

Celebration Columbus

(OHIO)

Positively Closes Sunday, July 13th

day since the* Cente

nary Celebration opened—• is it not? The City of Columbus, with its 250,000 population, could not sustain an average attendance in excess of 40,000 a i y e e o e a n y thousands of visitors had to Come and did come from aft sections of the country. As an illustration: on the train from Chicago to Colurnbus, I met a man and his wife and three children, who lived in North Dakota. They were on the way to attend the Centenary Celebration. As a matter of fact I met people from practically every state in the Union. The great crowd—over 120,000—that attended the Centenary Celebration on July 4th expressed itself as

mightily pleased that the ate" tendance exceeded that at the Prize Figrht, Toledo, by more than 70,000. The world sure does move on^ ward, and It seems to be moving In the right directionThe most remarkable scone I have ever witnessed was that on July 4th and 5th when thousands upon thousands of people patiently stood in line under ft broiling sun waiting for an opportunity to purchase an admis» sion ticket to see the GREAT PAGEANT, written by Rev. Dr. 3. E. Crowther, and wonderfully staged. i Another remarkable thing about this Pageant is that the storjr It tells is founded on life as portrayed in the bible—and yvt thousands of people wanted to see it and Jid see it, Ailing the great Coliseum, with its 7,500 seating capacity, every time It was presented. Another outstanding feature of the Centenary Celebration is that it assembled so many striking attractions that D. W. Griffith—* one of the Masters In Motion Picture life—kept a force of experts at the State Fair Ground for more than two weeks taking1 motion pictures that will introduce patrons of movie picture houses all over the world to th«„ really wonderful events that were & daily part of Uw exposition. The Victory Parade on the evening of July 4th, in which over 8,000 people took part, was a realization of a dream of ten years^ ago when tne managers of this* Centenary Celebration conceived the idea that it would be an inspiring e\*ent to show the pcopie of America what had b^en.""' accomplished by Methodist missionaries in foreicm lands.

It is a striking statement that there were as many peope in this para'".,—rememberthe number, 8,000 as the, Methodists missionaries had converted during the first fifty years of their efforts in heathen lands. And now it is enualiy striking to say that convf.-rts are made at the rate of 10,000 a month through this one great agency alone. And think of 50,000 people witnessing: this parade' Think also of 7,500 people plllnsr into the Coliseum to see the bipr Pageant at the same time! Think also of the M$r tent being filled to capacity at the same time where people went to hear "Hob Jones," the Great Southern KvanKelist! Think also of the moving picture houses filling up with Interested And eager crowds at the same time! But the one great outstanding feature that towers far and above all others is this: The Centenary Celebration has brought together in a splendid bond of unify the North and South Divisions of the Methodist Church which have been separated in their activities for many yea rs ... And this fact, coupled with the approval given In rich measure to the Centenary Celebration and its big mottve power in world reconstruction by the representatives of other KKf.lOlOUS FAITH?, is most «gnlflcaiit. A celebration that started on Friday and ends on the 13th—that started to advertise on Friday and ends its 13th advertisement today, Friday. July 11th—certainly tleflfd *ut«rst1t:n s-.d canio out with flying colors i.nd a glorious success.
