The only certain fact is that the conâ€" tracting parties are not whliged to communicate "freely and frankly"‘ with one another, as are Britain and Japan under the terms of their treaty. We have Prince Yon Bue-l low‘s word for it that Germany was | not forewarned of the Bosnian anâ€"| nexation of 1908. and it is undor-f stood that the terms of the recent note to Servia were not comuni-l cated in advance. t It is significant that Russia was expressly mentioned. The alliance was not a general document. In a sense Austria gained more than she gave, for while it safeguarded her against her greatest foe, Germany was without support in the event of war with France. To her the treaty meant nothing but the protection of her eastern frontier, and she felt justified in reinsuring herself by a eonvention with Russia, in whid‘ each power undertook not to atâ€" tack <the other. This reinsurance was made possible by the fact that her treaty with Austria was nurely defensive . The Inferences are possible ‘because the terms of the original treaty of alliance between Germany and Austria, _ the _ Bismarckâ€"Andrassy treaty of 1878, out of which the Triple Alliance sprang, have been published. _ Publication was an episode in Bismarck‘s controversy with Caprivi as to the justification for not renewing the soâ€"called reinâ€" surance treaty with Russia. Owâ€" ing to this controversy it became known that Germaoy and Austria were pledged to make war in comâ€" mon if either power was attacked by Russia. The three treaties of alliance beâ€" tween Britainâ€"and Japan have all been made public immediately upon ratification. But of the contents of the other docwments which govern the peace of the world nothing is known, though much may be inâ€" ferred. The Great Nations Are All Linked Together. With the exception of the United Btates, the Great Powers are all linked together by treaties of alâ€" liance. Only in one case, however, are the terms of treaties known to the public, says a writer in the London Globe. I not done at all. To remember conâ€" stantly that men are men involves To keep in mind that men â€" are men involves no depreciation of humanity. It simply means underâ€" standing it. _ It means getting things worth while done instead of getting things more worth while assignment, it is wise to keep in mind the pregnant fact that men are always men. When publicâ€" spirited reformers press changes in laws and administration it helps to remember that the new machinery will still involve the human eleâ€" ment. In brief, no matter what the plan or proposition is, it should alâ€" ways be considered in the light of the fact that human perfection is far distant. We must always reâ€" member that the plan must beJ largely worked by men. perfectibility, all we have to do is to remember that men are men, not angels. When socialism comes forâ€" ward with its theory of the pracâ€" tical equality of the value of men‘s Iabor, with its idea that everyâ€" body‘s work can be assigned and evervbody remain satisfied with the etical anarchy with its l;xghvâ€"pro- fessions of love for humanity and its impossible postulate of human all. Nothing contributes mor: 7tr<v>: sanity of judgment than ° keeping this pregnant fact always in mind.

A London â€"dispatch says that Priae# Kropotkin, the. distinguishâ€" ed Russian anarchist, warmly supâ€" ports his country in the war with Germany. He is an exile {from Russia. He has suffered at the hands of the Russian government. His principles involve denial of paâ€" triotism. Yet the moment he sees Russia in a struggle with a foreign foe he feels about it just as you would expect a man to feel.

The mouth disease that is most often responsible for general ill health is Rigg‘s disease (Pyorrâ€" hea alveolaris), but ather forms of inflammation, such as an abscess at the root of the tooth, can also do mischief. The abscess may cause no pain or apparent inflammation, yet it may do a good deal of harm if the pus it forms passes into the blood stream. Among the many diseases which in certain cases can be traced to inflammation »f the gums or tooth sockets are dys.pop-' sia, rheumatism, anaemia, high | blood pressure with resulting headâ€" ache, or even heart and kidney disâ€" ease, constipation, and asthma.

The word _ "eternal"‘ comes from the Greek word meanâ€" ing "ageâ€"long"‘ ; hence, those who merited the condemnation oi the Son of Man are to be cut back, pruned, and be subjected to this treatment for a long period, so that if there was any worth in them, they would have a chance to bud out and develop afresh. Howâ€" ever, this judgment is not to be taken as referring to the future life, as though those who have al-i ready passed into the beyond still have a period of probation. The fores of the teaching is that man‘s attitude toward God is to be disâ€" covered in his attitude toward his fellowmen. If he loves them to the extent of being ready to minister unto them irrespective of how humâ€" ble they are, he loves God. And as the righteous in this parable did not know the Lord inosmuch as they had never seen him, and yet by ministering unto their fellow men had ministered unto him, so may he who has no powers to disâ€" cern the actual being of God reâ€" veal vital relationship to him in every act of loving kindness.
