Germany's Secret Trade Plans An article in the August issue of the World's Work exposes the plan whereby Germany hopes to obtain mastery of the commerce of the world. A synopsis of the article follows: "The U. S. Government has succeeded in getting possession of one copy of the book which contains Germany's secret plans for controlling the world's trade after the war. This report shows that Germany has made her plans for com

mercial conquest as fully and as carefully as she made her plans for war. She proposes to subsidize her industries' from a state fund, to fill the world with her spies to report every improvement in methods of manufacture, to. stipulate in the peace treaty that a certain percentage of the raw material from each country shall go to Germany, etc., etc., etc. The book, which is reviewed and exposed by R. W. Page in the World's Work for August, states that 'Made in Germany' can no longer be stamped on German products, because Germany has now earned the hate of the world. "Legends popular with the customers must be substituted for 'Made in Germany,' says the book. This leads Mr. Page to predict that German looms a few years hence may be making 'Abraham Lincoln Liberty Petticoats' for American trade. "The book bears the harmless title of 'The Future of German Industrial Exports.' Herzcg, its author, will probably go down in history as the Bernhardt of German cemmerce. "The plans for compelling a world which 'hates Germany' to trade with Germany and make her the first commercial power of the world are worked out as completely as Bernhardi stated Germany's war plans. The treaty of pea6e must give Germany the right to purchase a certain percentage of the raw material produced by each of her present enemies. "A 'foreign brigade' of spies will report every improvement of manufacturing processes to Berlin. Every German business will contribute to a state fund which will be used for driving competitors out of business by underselling them. German workmen will be enlisted for life in various industries. In short, this state program for ruthless world commerce, simply cannot be met by ordinary corporations and business concerns. Only the defeat of the German army can prevent Germany's reducing us to commercial vassalage and that according to Herzog's plan."

ordered the destruction of hospital ships and the bombardment of Red Cross hospitals. Uncle Sam's soldiers learned what German "honor" included a few days ago when the Huns shot stretcher bearers carrying wounded Americans off the battlefield. German "honor" means German mendacity, falsehood and deceit, and the only kind of "honorable peace" the Central Powers would conclude would be one that left the world subject to the tyranny of militarism and the absolutism of the Hohenzollern house. The Allies believe that the only kind of "honorable peace" possible is one that will follow the complete defeat of the Huns on the field of battle. Hussarek is right in sayfng that the Allies "take the standpoint of one-sided dictation," for they have been driven to the conclusion by German atrocities and lies that peace must be dictated by allied cannon and bayonets. The Central Powers cannot be trusted to observe either the rules of civilized warfare or the dictates of honor and justice at the peace table. Their complete subjugation must be attained before peace can be discussed. No one questions the sincerity of Austria's alliance with Germany, although Hussarek would have been nearer the truth had he said that Austria's alliance with Germany is a real affair in which the kaiser rules and Austria is the vassal. Austria has ceased being a full partner in the alliance. Virtually she is a vassal state, forced to do the bidding of the Berlin gang.

New Austrian Premier Talks About Peace Baron von Hussarek, the new Austrian premier, has added his" contribution to the peace talk of the Central Powers. "We are ready to conclude an honorable peace as soon as our opponents renounce their hostile plans aiming at out destruction or repression," said the premier in presenting his cabinet to the Austrian parlia

ment. "As in var so in peace, Austria will not stand alone. Our alliance with Germanw is a real affair of the heart and will deepen under the influence of peace." When the Central Powers speak of an "honorable peace," the world wonders what they are talking about. (Jermany talked "honorable" peace to the Russians, but they found that this brand of peace meant the loss of the best provinces of the Muscovite realm. Belgium contributes a black page to the volume of German "honor." The United States recalls how the "honor" of Germany's ambassador permitted him to plot against our national safety. Great Britain and France became intimately acquainted with the Kaiser's "honor" when he

Pronouncing Foreign Names Americans, have wrestled harder with French names in the last two weeks than at any time

uerhans in the last four years. Their extreme in

terest in the doings of the Yankees introduced them to names which they could not conquer.

Most of them fell back on the expedient of pronouncing them as they were spelled or as near to

that as they could.

The few who looked up the cities in a pronouncing gazetteer found, when they tried to give

the correct pronunciation, that their friends did

not know what they were talking about, forcing

them to adopt the anglicized pronunciation. The late Professor Dennis in one of his lectures told a class that Latin and Greek words should be pronounced as they are spelled in English. He argued that persons conversant with a foreign language could easily give the correct pronunciation but that it was folly for an American to try to pronounce Latin and Greek names if he did not know these languages.

The same rule may be applied in the pronunciation of the French names that -we meet in the war reports. Few in Richmond know enough French to pronounce them correctly, and if the English version is intelligible to all why worry

about the correct pronunciation. We have not

iced that war lecturers here do not use the same

pronunciation, indicating tnat there must be a

wide variance elsewhere.

The following was heard on a street car one cold day In winter In a Canadian city. At a corner the car was boarded by a husky soldier In the picturesque Highland uniform the kilts

or watch leave the knees bare. On the"!

car was a young dude still In mufti, seated with bis best girl. The girl cast admiring glances at the attractively uniformed "kiltie," much, to the displeasure of her slacker escort. So he endeavored to make fun of the uniform by remarking: "I think that outfit is most ridiculous. That fellow's knees look as if they were frozen." The kiltie, overhearing the comment, glanced contemptuously at the dude's civilian clothes, then scornfully replied: "Well, young fellow, It is a sure thing my knees aren't as cold as your feet." The slacker got off at the next stop.

Patriotic Economy

From the Indiana State Council of Defense. WHEN an American citizen, instead of spending $100 for something he wants, denies himself and lends the money to the Government, he performs a double service. First, he furnishes our Government with $100 to use in the prosecution of the war. Second, he has relieved to the extent of $100 the drain on our goods and services; that is, material and labor. To make the articles or article he would have bought,

or to manufacture others to take their place in the mar-j ket would require materials and labor. In addition, to j

get the article to him, labor and freight space would be required. By doing without the article, he has left material to be used for war purposes, labor to be used in the same way, and he has also relieved the transportation facilities of the country. This may not be much in an individual case, but when hundreds of thousands and millions of Americans pursue this course it means millions and millions of dollars left for uses of the nation in this war, millions of hours of labor to do war work, and a vast amount of freight space free for national uses. These sacrifices are easy to make; they are small and trivial compared to the sacrifices- that our Boldiers and sailors make daily while they offer constantly their lives for their country the greatest sacrifice of all.

BREAKFAST TABLE CHAT IN GEHENNA. Said Adam to Eve: "I can hardly believe That our children could start Such a fight' Over night, As this war thing has turned out to be. Mercy, me!" Said Eve then to Adam: "Those thoughts, I have had 'em. I've made up my mind That the Huns are your kind. The Allies show my family strain. Very clear But the Germans take after your folks, Adam, dear." 'So, they don't!" "Yes. they do. I can prove it is true." "No you can't, or you shan't. The Huns take after you." So they fought it all out Till their coffee grew cold. And now there's another Home gone, we are told. Neither one would give up And the neighbors, of course, Had to break up the thing. They'll both sue. for divorce. Each one charges slander, j But perhaps it may be

They're both right, and the Hun May have no family tree. We have often suspected From things we have read,

That he takes after no one. Either living or dead.

Emphatically Asserts Worn Out, Lagging Men Can Quickly Become Vigorous and Full of Ambition t 1 ' 1 7 A DAY FOR 7 DAYS

ma m 13 m

Don't blame the man who is perpetually tired; his blood needs more red corpuscles and his brain and nerves are craving for food. Given the right kind of medicine, any tired-out, inactive, lagging fellow can quickly be made into a real live, energetic and even ambitious man. So says a student of the nervous system who advises all men and women who feel worn out and who find It hard to get up ambition enough to take a regular Job to get a package of Bio-feren at any druggist. This 1 e the new discovery that pharmacists are recommending because it is not expensive and speedily puts vigor and ambition into people who despaired of ever amounting to anything in life. People whose nerves have been wrecked by too rapid living, too much tobacco or alcohol, have regained their

old-time confidence and energy In less than two weeks. No matter from what cause your nerves went back on you; no matter how run down, nervous or tired out 'you are, get an original package of Bio-feren at once. Take two tablets after each meal and one before bedtimeseven a day for seven daysthen one after each meal till all are gone. Then If you still lack ambition; If your nerves are not steady and you haven't the energy that red-blooded, keen-minded men possess, your purchase money will be gladly returned. Note to Physicians i There is no secret about the formula of Bio-feren, it is printed on every package. Here it is: Lecithin; Calcium Glycerophosphate; Iron Peptonate; Manganese Peptonate; Ext. Nux Vomica; Powdered Gentian; Phenolphthalein; Olearesin Capsicum; Kola.
