German prestige was terribly shaken and the pasisonate resentment of the Ger man' people has found expression ever since in the press and in the utterances of many of her pubic men. >The defeat of the Triple Alliance in Morocco was quickly followed by disasters more serious Italy went to Tripoli and in making war against Turkey attacked a power regarded in Germany as an' ally, whose army, German trained, was confidently ex pected to stand with the Triple Alliance on the great day of European conflict. Defeated by Italy, Turkey was next compeled to face the alliance of the Balkan states, whose1 union was the direct product of Russian diplom acy With the victories of Lule Bar- gas.Ku-manovo and Jenidje-Vardar, Turkish power in Europe collapsed and the small Balkan states, increas ed by great territorial gain, stood on Austrian's southern frontier barring her road ��������� to the /Egean, and in the case of Servia threatening to play the role on the Danube that Sardinia had played on the Po and unite the South ern Slavs as Sardinia united Italy. To prevent this Austria resorted to desperate tactics. Like Germany she had expected Turkish victory and the Osmanli ruin found her unprepeared Toward Servia she adopted bullying tactics. To break up the Balkan alliance, which was in fact a Russian creation, and an adjunct of the Triple Entente, she promoted the dissension among the Balkan allies ��������� which resulted in the second Avar. But gain Austria backed the wrong horse. Not only was Bulgaria defeated and Servia still further increas ed in territory and in prestige, but Austrian support of Bulgaria had alienated Roumania, hitherto the stead fast friend of the Triple Alliance, and precisely as the Servians began to dream of regaining Bosnia and Herze govuia Roumania cast envious eyes on the millions of Roumanians in Hungary. Meantime as the situation of Austria had been compromised abroad, it was weakened at home. Half the population oi: the dual Monarchy is Slav, but the ruling races are German and Magyar. Austrian bullying of Servia provoked protest, roit, disorder at home. Jn Bohemia, Croatia Galacia Slav-populations protested in vain, but found cause for hope and enthusiasm in the triumph ot the Serb. Only one diplomatic triumph Austria brought home in her -campaign. Servian aspirations for a "window on the sea" were thwarted and the Albanian kingdom was created. But no sooner had it been created than the rival ambitious of Italy and Austria In gan to 'clash and European ��������� observers forecast a quarel between Austria The coat of a general war in Europe would be $19,7'55,'625,0'00 a year If such a war comes and lasts five years the cost would without indemnity claims will'reach the amazing total of $98,778,125,000."

C. and Italy such as'Schleswig-Holstein provoked between Italy and Austria. This on the edge of the present crisis the Triple Alliance found her self in a badly weakened condition. Austria on her southern boundary was confronted with Serb and Rouma ni&n armies, whose fighting capacity was proved, whose national aspirations would be promoted by Austrian disruption. Greece too, excluded too from North Epirus by Italy, had been driven to the entente and possessed a ileet and' an army to be reckoned with. At home Austria faced growing disorder. Her Slav populations, their racial pride and confidence roused by Servian and Bulgarian victories, no longer endured with patience the persecutions of Germans and Hungarians. Disloyalty wa3 on the increase on all sides,' and Austria seemed about to succeed Turkey as "The Sick Man of Europe." In this situation German newspapers and public men began- to demand thai the clash between the Triple Alliance and the Triple Entente should be postponed'no longer. Time plainly was with the enomy, xlustria was growing weaker. Austria-Italian rivalry in Albania as well as secular rivalry in Trieste and the Trenfino plainly promised future quarrels which might destroy the lighting value of the Trple Alliance and leave Germany alone between France and Russia. It is the German temper which makes the present 'crisis serious. At the time of the Bosnian clash no nation in Europe desired war, and only Germany was ready. At the moment the Morrocan dispute Germany back ed down because she found France England and Russia ready and the possible gain incommensurate with the possible loss a great war might bring. Today' a very considerable faction of German official life believes that only by war can Germany maintain her predominance in Europe and that a few more years of piece will leave (Continued on page Three) ���������������\ Abbotsford Livery, Feed and Sales Stables When you require a comfortable rig; one that feels good and looks good; ring up CUERIE & McKENZIE & Insure your horses and-cattle in case of accident or death A valuable Mare is worth insuring, so are the other farm stock.

But' British statesmen are unlikelq to run the risk of a Ger many with her hands free to fight for naval supremacy. The worst- phase ot the present crisis is that neither Alliance nor Entente can now escape war without tremendous loss of ' prestige.

A sick- room should be furnished jas simply as possible���������rno superfluous furniture or hangings���������-but' it should not be too bare or cheerless. A plain tinted wall paper is much more restful to the eye than a conventional patern. A few poted plants or flowers in vases give a homelike touch and note of coicr and make the sick room more attractive. A comfortable couch or large easy chair should be provided ior the early stages of the patient's convalescence Hs surroundings should be as cheer ful and attractive as possible for environments have a potent influence on sick people and helps or hinders their recovery. In the same way the atmosphere of the sick room should be as cheerful as possible. All discussions and arguments or subjects likely to cause irritation in his weak condition should be avoided in the hearing of the patient, for the mental attitude of the patient does much to promote or retard his recovery. He must be made to feel that everything possible is. being done for him and he should be encouraged as consistently as possible in order that he may co-operate as far as he is able, with his will and reason, with medicine and science. Nourishment for the patient should be offered to him in as attractive a manner as possible' and, when it is feasible, favorite beverages or dishes should be chosen. An attractively ar- tractively arranged tray with appetizing food, daintly served, will often appeal to a patient who has little inclination or appetite for food and very often food that has been ordered for him, but for which he does not care, will be eaten more readily because served attractively. Clean linen, pretty dishes and sparkling silver and glass, well cooked and seasoned food, and, if possible, a flower" on the tray are all valuable aids to the nurses in persuading all unwilling patients to take nourishment.. It is desirable, but not imperative, to have a plentiful supply of bed linen for the sick room. By exercising care and good judgment the nurse may make a limited supply go a long way. It is advisable, when possible, to use two nightgowns���������one for the day and one for the night. made of non-absor.bant cotton and. bandages may be used to relieve pres sure. There are many ways in which the thoughtful and observant nurse may lessen- the discomforts of illness and relieve the tedium of her patient. When it is not possible to secure some of the many devices and means for making easy the care of the sick at home a . nurses ingenuity and a- daptability are called upon to make use of such( means as are at hand. These combined with "The reason firm, the temperate will, Endurance, foresight, strength and skill" are the' secret of successful nursing whether it is done by amateurs or professional nurses. WHY SAVE THE LORD'S DAY? (J. L. Campbell). The above is the title of a sermon by Br. D. H. Martin of Glen Falls New York an outline of which is herewith given: 1 he only couv.'.iand in tho Decalogue which begins with the word "Remember" is the fourth: Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy, as if the Divine writer realized there would be more danger of forgetting this than any of the others and of yielding to the subtle temptations of caprice and convenience as an ex cuse for violating it. "Remember" stands like a solitary sentinel in the front of this solemn command yet it has been chafed under who was stoned for gathering sticks on the Sabbath, down to the modern saloon keper who, in commercializing his foliowman's weakness, breaks three laws, that of the Sabbath, the state and brotherly love. Jesus declared the Sabbath was made for man, that' is.M'or mankind. It is to be kept holy, that is wholesomely, so that our threefold nature, body mind and soul may benefit. No law .more wise and merciful ever came from the loving heart of God; a law as all embracing in its design, as sun light meeting the needs of King and peasant, master and servant, parent and child. Whence came the wisdom conden sed in this fourth commandment? Not from the Greeks, called the wisest of nations for the words were church. So the Sabbath was made fcr man that he might be in. every sense a man. Something more than a beast of burden, something more than a cash register, something more than a pendulum swinging between "his home and his business. In an ordinary life time of seventy years there are years of Sundays. Therefore the manner in which a man keeps these three thousand six hundred and forty Sabbaths will make its impress on the man's life for all eternity. Why not man do as1 they please with the Sabbath? Because it is made for man's liberty, not for man's license, and the highest liberty is always to be l'^und in conformity to law. Some one. will say. I am so busy during the week I have no other day for recreation. You are not busier than many men who keep the Sabbath and find enough recreation on other days Have you any day for culture of soul life? The Lord's day is like a rent ed house, but the tenant has no right to say, "I will do what I please with this house" No, the house is his to use and not abuse. " If a tramp tells me a pitiful tale and I have seven silver dollars and give six of them to him what would we think of him if he came to my house at night and robbed me of the seventh? Look at the people who do spend the entire Sabbath Day in pleas ure seeking. Not one gleam of spir itual light or real joy in their faces A day's march nearer home! We appeal for'a sane and safe Sab bath not in the interests of the church or religion but in the interests of all the people, believers and unbelievers. Lincoln said,"As we keep or break the Sabbath Day, we nobly save, or meanly lose the last best hope by which man rises" The gold en rule rules for the observance of the Sabbath Day. Do I oblige other people to lose a restday by my con duct? For Christian men and women there can be only one course of action "I was in the spirit on the Lord's Day" Keep that phrase in mind and you will find it easy to decide courses of conduct on this day. The lov ing heart of God gave us this day let us not grieve Him by desecrating it and thus bring dishonor and hurt upon ourselves. ������Mmmgim������������roimmUMHmttWaMllMl nri ABBOTSFORD POS1 ABBOTSFO.ftD, B. 0\ :*| Mr. Salt, of the local customs staff is enjoying a week's holidays in the Terminal City.
