Today Money Conscripted? Mot ) et. One Dreadful Foreigner. If hen Is a Man Old? By ARTHUR BRISBANE . Mr. Baruch says that, in tha next war money as well as men must be conscripted. When young men are marched away to be shot or gassed, the money of rich men must be taken away to be spent for the war and not returned to the owner. That has been suggested very often between wars, but it does not mean anything. It will not mean anything while money remains, as it is, the greatest force in govern ment. You may write this down on your tablets of prophecy: If there were any real probabil ity of capital being conscripted, along with men, for government use in the next war, that war would be postponed indefinitely. The real bosses would see to that. The war in which little fellows lose their lives, at $30 a month, and big fellows double their profits, is the war that will last. Intelligence rules. Modern in telligence, 90 per cent of it is de voted to accumulating money. Where money is intelligence and power are also. When war comes, little men will be conscripted, and marched away while capital assures them that they are heroes and nothing is too good for them. Then capital will pro ps' ceed to make as much as possible out of the war, and the government will beg the prosperous to buy bonds at good interest. That’s our war system, ami it will last as long as the rest of the system—a good many years. A foreigner in New York, by ac cident or with wicked intent, used a worthless foreign coin, instead of an honest American nickel, to pass through the turnstile that opens the way to the subway jam. Justice seized him, dragged him to court. The judge delivered a sol emn lecture on the shortcomings of foreigners and the beauty of hon esty, that would have done your heart good. It all wound up with the earnest suggestion that the guilty foreigner he deported. The judicial lecture is made the more impressive by the fact that subway management has stolen streets from the public and tens of millions from its confiding stockholders - with never a judge interfering. Rut then the street car rascals are noble Americans, not base born foreigners trying to steal a ride from a great corporation. “When is a man or a woman old?” That question is asked by an advertiser. How W’ould you answer it? Gray hair, wrinkles, stooping shoulders, slow' steps, feeble and dim eyes do not make old age. You are old, in the unpleasant sense of the word, whatever your i v age, when you automatically reject p. new idoa with “I don’t believe it.” * You are old when the happiness of uthers no longer gives you pleas- , ure, when life looks gray; when you lose confidence in human nature and in humanity's progress. Concrete is old when it’s hard and “set” and it’s the same.with the brain of man or woman. There .'.re nie:i and women of 80 much younger in reality than many of 28. There are women at 80 younger mentally than they were at 18. If intelligence and kindness increase, youth increases and old age goes further back. Rev. Dr. D. S. Dodge died, and bis fortune, $1,135,819, goes to his relatives, except two public be quests totaling $30,000 This makes the ignorant wonder whether the dead man took se riously the text about taking all you have and giving it to the poor. Did Mr. Dodge conclude that was not :aid seriously, or that it was only temporary advice? There is no problem involved at all. Thor human mind adjusts it •elf admirably to conditions, theo ries and religious teachings. Nine hundred and ninety-nine out of 1,000 can say, “that’s an excel lent capon,” quite undisturbed by the fact that thousands are starving not far from that capon. That’s part of the business of Providence. Were it otherwise, life would lie impossible and progress would stop, for It is built on the achievements of intense selfishness. I Copy right, 1$24.)

IIEW GERMAN DISCOVERT PROMISES RELIEF FROM RHEUMATIC PAINS From Leipzig, Germany, comes a ra port of the discovery of a newer method for the relief of pain in cases of rheuma* tM»n, gout, neuritis and neuralgia without the use of internal medicines. The discov erer. Jacob Kohler, of Stuttgart, Germany, has undoubtedly proved that in even the most advanced and stubborn caaea the sufferers often secure relief tha very firat day.

To neutralize these poisons, Rub ier compounded a new' form of oil in tended to penetrate to the affected joints and muscles and neutralize the poisons In much the same way that, bicarbonate of ■. 1 U*v.” „ut», lb.. * "Sonf •! tk* South" _ Sensational Sale of Burson Hose Buy Now for Future Wear.
