And the smile Is the stronger of the two. A smile or a good hearty laugh clears the mind, tones up the body and adds grace and beauty to the face. No matter how despondent you are, If you will force yourself to smile' life will soon look different to you. Smiles beget cheerfulness, and without cheerfulness there can be no healthy action, physical, mental or moral. Tha person who carries a smiling countenance, keeping his troubles to himself, ever finds a welcome. He makes a host of friends, and Impresses others with the belief that he must be successful in order to be so cheerful. This fact inspires confidence, and he consequently makes his way in the world where another with more brains but less buoyancy fails. \"The glad smile that makes the face radiant Is but a glimpse of the soul's sunshine,\" and in order to be healthy we must have the warmth and light and radiance of the soul m well as-that of the sun. 1 Smiles lubrisattt the machinery and disp������������������l friction, pro- . mote health ancl all the inner forces by which life is sustained.

The Peace Table When the war is over, thc conditions of peace will be settled and formulated by a meeting of diplomats who will discuss, arrange and compromise, at day must come sometime. Why not now? Why not lay down arms now, appoint our representatives and let them meet wilh the enemy's, statesmen? Germany has won much territory and suffered much. We have all of-Germany's colonics and havc \"suffered much. Why not have both parties come together and on a basis of com- p rom i se^o f-ba la ncin g-o n e=i tem= against another, havc peace? Thc only reason is lhat Germany is not defeated yet. No matter how lhc war ends, if it leaves Germany with an armv and navy, we arc beaten. Wc U , did not enter thc war to win ler- = ' rilory. nor arc wc out of thc war if wc lose territory. We entered the war to end a menace; unless we end thai menace, we are defeated. Let Germany restore, every foot of ground she has taken, and kecp\"*licr army and navy, and shc will remain as much a menace as shc ever was. The. world will be no safer than before. It would be. nearlv as difficult To meet the threat of peace with'\"an undefeated Germany as it is to carry on the war.\" What is victory? The military .definition is \"the destruction of the armed forces of the enemy.\" Germany ���������������������������������������������������������������������������������must coine lo a. new spirit before we can talk peace; and before lhat new si>irit arises, it is pretty clear that thc soldier's definition, will have to come true. We are quite willing, in Wilson's phrase, tb have peace witbout victory; but neither wc nor our allies are willing to havc war without victory. \" Peace by negotiation lias a charming sound, and many are allured by its specious rhetoric.
