li.t it bf a rkal compromisf. [J
Latest news from Washington is that the bi-partisan conferen e
seeking a way out in the treaty deadlock has reached a stone wall at ..
the Beginning, and that the hope of a compromise has almost disap- ^
peared. It appears that the Lodge faction of the republican party
is willing to enter into a compromise, if the democrats or friends of p
he treaty do all the compromising.
These senators insist or the Lodge reservations to Article 10
of the League covenant and to the reservation regarding voting rep
resentation in the council. The latUi ol these doesn’t mean r uch—i> •
U8 But undoubtedly would be inacceptable to our Allied associates
as it would disfranchise in the League nations nearly as great as our
selves—Australia and CJanada, for instance. 1 he former is the heart
of the League, as the president has put it; without it there will be no
League worth the name, and we might just as well reject the whole
treaty and League as modify it as insisted upon by Mr. Lodge and -
his cohorts. For a League whose mandates oi decisions in time of •
peril could not be enforced would be about as valuable as a city po
lice force each member of which, should a riot start, would be per
mitted to decide for himself whether he cared to risk a few cracks on
the head, or the chance of getting shot, in order to restore peace
or maintain it.
In the absence of any disposition to compromise on the part of
the Lodge followers, the president s suggestion that the treaty be car
ried to the nation as the big issue in the coming presidential campaign
appears to be gaining favor. The country and the world can ill
a tioid to wait for such a slow process of settlement of the issue, but
if it cannot be settled without the "supreme sacrifice” of the life of
the League itself, its friends will take up the challenge to fight it out
on this line if it takes all summer.*
There is one other thought in connection with the treaty that
many people would like to have answered. I he League of Nations
has come into actual being, without the aid of the United States.
How can Mr. Lodge and his followers hope now to modify that treaty
by reservation. It would seem to the observer from a distance that
their only chance for logical or effective action would be either to
compromise or let the whole treaty and League lie dead where it is
and stop talking compromise or attempting to shift the responsibility
lor the present deplorable status of affairs.

When a doctor uses a medicine him
self besides prescribing It to his patients,
he must know that It has merit.
This is wlmt Dr. J. H. Wagner, a prom
inent physician of Skate, Kentucky, has
to say about Dr. Hartman’s well-known
remedy, PK-KL’-NA: “I have used PE-
Kl’-NA myself for catarrh and have
given It to others for catarrh, bloating
after eating and other ailments. It has
proved a success In all cases with old
and young men and women. All speak
well of PE-Kl’-NA. It Is the best of all
Dr. Wagner, out of tho fullness of his
own personal experience, for the good of
all sick and suffering, recommends a
medicine which ho knows to be good.
You may he shre a doctor would not en
danger his professional reputation by
endorsing PE-Kl’-NA unless satisfied be
yond a doubt of Its value.
Whether your trouble be a cough or a
cold, or a more subtle catarrhal effection
of the stomach, bowels or other organs,
give PE-RU-NA a trial. Tho Immediate
Improvement which you will see will sat
isfy beyond a doubt that PE-RP-NA Is what you need.
FK-itP-NA may be purchased anywhere In tablet or Pquld form.

IN (".CD’S NAML, PRODUCE!”
"Product! Produce! Were it but the most pitiful infin
itesimal iiaction of a product—produce it in God’s name! ’Tis
the utmost thou hast in thee. Out with it. then! Whatsoever
thy hand findeth to do. do it with thy whole might. Work
while it is called Today, for the Night cometh, wherein no man
cr.n work.”—Carlyle.
An eastern firm has issued a calendar for 1920 upon which the
above quotation from the great English writer is printed. The appli
cation is as obvious today as it was in the days of stress and strifoj
in England which called it forth.
Would that these words could be printed in great letters, fram
ed >nd sent broadcast throughout the land. Every office should have
them, and every home; every show needs the injunction and every
worker would be benfited by a conscientious following of the admon
ition. Perhaps some enterprising firm will take it upon itself to issue
me appeal, or maybe tho traction companies could he induced to
carry the legend in hold letters upon placards in their cars, so that
ail who ride may read.
Right now there is no greater patriotism than work and no bet
ter panacea for the ills that wrack our body politic than productive
industry.
Produce! Produce! In Cod’s name. Produce!

THE RUSSIAN SACRIFICE.
In considering present-day Russia, it is only fair to remember
one big fact that is usually forgotten in the general chorus of con
demnation. It is this;
Russian losses in the war, according to estimates made by the
Kolchak government, amounted in killed and wounded to 35,000,000
men.
Russia, of course, is a large, populous country. But 35,000,000
casualties! It is as if the United States had 20.000,000 men killed
or wounded in this war.
Such inconceivably vast losses nv*st explain a great deal, if we
could interpret them fully in all their hearings. I here are millions
of desolate homes and broken families, millions of fatherless or pau-
pe-ed children, millions of men disabled from wounds or war illness
and unable to make a living, human relations changed, organizations
shattered, hopes destroyed, plans wrecked, nerves set on dge. Add
to all this a general shifting of population and a sudden upsetting of
the old governmental regime. \\ hat wonder that the whole nation is
in a ferment of unrest, and any crazy idea finds champions, and peo
ple rush to wild extremes, and Bolshevism or any other ism in the
hands of a strong leader gains a following and makes temporary
headway?
Perhaps a nation that has 35,000.000 war losses—or half that
many—deserves to have its fling, and deserves tolerance or forgive-'
ness for its excesses.
These excesses will pass, as c/arism has passed. 1 he exhausted
nation, trying to drown its war-miseries in a drunken spree of free
dom, will yet come to its senses.
