We all know that Switzerland Is a republic, but even those of us who have traveled there, probably because were on a hoildiiy. jtave lit tie thought to the Swiss political system. Indeed, before this war we cared little about the government of any country except our own. The present constitution of Switzer land was adopted in 1.14S and in many particulars as modeled after that of the United states. There ate the same three great Fed eral powers the Federal Assembly rf present In the legislative branch; the rederal Council, representinc the ex ecutive branch, and the Federal Court, representing the Judicial branch. resides! Powers Limited. The lower chamber made up of representatives el-etcd directly by the people and the other chamber of mem bers elected, as in our Set.ate, two by each canton or state. The Bunriesrat, or Federal Couiuil, which ha all the executive power. Is elected b- the Ftderal Assembly, and it is th, chair man or t.n body who Is Known as he President of Switzerland. In reality I.e does not possess the powers of our resident, but It is the Bundsrat as whole which exercises the powers. Knch member of this Council Is min ister or head of some separate depart ment, such as military. Justice and po- ice, foreign affairs, posts and rail ways, etc. The Swiss cantons have nvtch power, and there Is a di.-tinet Jealousy by each canton of states' ri ehts. It is In Switzerland that we en counter two little friend, .sponsored by William Jennings Bryan the ini tlstiv. and referendum means by which the Swiss people are tiven a direct voice In their poverniu nt. By th. Initiative a certain number bf voters may propose new leirislat ion. and when the requisite number sign a petition the proposed law must then be sub mitted to popular vote. The rule ap plies both In the separate cantons and In the republic as a whole. Th. referendum, more often n.ed. provides that if the requisite number of signers be obtained any law passed hv a cantonal legislative body or by the Federal Assembly shall l.e submitted to the voters. In certain cantons the ref erendum is obligatory atid every law is thus submitted to tho people, in prac tice the referendum has acted as a check to advanced legislation. Ked rrus lance Is ufe.

As late as lk.".i! Prussia and Switzerland were on t dr edge of war. Irlor to !Mi Xeuchatrl acknow.dired the King of Irus'ia as its overlord. The Congress of Vi- nna. how ever. Included this territory in the Swiss Confederation as one of the Swiss cantons. But Prussia, in spite of this formal arrangement, with its usual dis regard of treaties, continued to claim Neuchatel. In ISIS the revolutionary influence resulted in more dt-niocratio rule in Neuchatel, hut the Prussian propagan dist of that day was at worl:, and in IS.. Count Fourtales plot was discov ered and several hundred prisoners were seized by the Swiss government. All but a score were released. Freder- k William IV of Prussia demanded their Instant pardon and release, and ordered th. mobilization of his army, but finally, through the intervention of Napoleon JIT. the affair was settled, the prisoners released by way of tranw and th. Prussian Kinir renounced all rights over Neuchatel. The Kulturkampf of Bismnrck. his contest against the Koman Catholics. had Its echoes in Switzerland, and it probably was due also to Ccrman in fluence that until lSiiti full freedom was withheld from the Jews. The Red Cross had Its origin In Swit zerland. and the Geneva conventions ave done much to bring about the doption of better rules of war. Tin Geneva Cross is the badge of interna tional charity and help. Switzerland always has opened her doors to the politically oppressed. More han 10.00 revolutionists from Baden ook refuge In Switzerland in lsl. Aust ria, in 1&53, as a reprisal for the at leged actions of Italians in Switzerland In conspiring against Austria, drove housands of Swiss citizens from that part of Italy occupied by Austria. Also In th. Franco-Prussian war the French General Bourhaki and his army of near ly 100.000 men sought an asylum In wltzerland. Army One .f I alieraal Service. Th. army of Switzerland is a true citizen army an army of universal servlce and it is due to the existence f this force that Switzerland remainr dependent state in the midst ol Europe. To stand apart In Kurope Is the verj essence of life for Switzerland, it u regrettable, therefore, that Cernian money and German propaganda and some sympathy for Germany among th. officers of the army should have touched the fine flower of Swiss neu trality. A triumphant Prussia and a free Switzerland cannot exist in the same Iturope. In Switzerland It Is in the military that we find that greatest sympathy for Germany. In lvlf. Swiss olticers were discovered working out the cipher of other nations for the benefit of th. German armies, and the punish ment given at the ensuing court martial was not only Incommensurate with th. ofTense. hut was n plain indi cation of the early sympathies of the chiefs of the Swiss staff. The food question between the t'nited States and Switzerland requires deli cate handling. We like the Swiss and do not wish them to suffer, hut the Swiss must understand that our food is our own and that we do not pro pose It shall go to nourish Germans or that It shall take the place, in Switzer land, of Swiss food sold by the Swiss to our enemies. The President of Switzerland related to ma the difficult position la which V EXPERIENCE has taught the public to look with' suspicion upon clothing which comes from unknown and hidden ; origins partic ularly with wool growing scarcer prices going higher the temptation to cheapen and adulterate becoming stronger and stronger. The clothesmaker who has no reputation at stake no fixed pledges to bind him mayjdecide'it is more profit able to give way to the pres sure than to resist it. An unlabeled garment is an evasion of responsibility. In affixing their label to a garment, on the other hand, the Kirschbaum clothes makers say,"For this garment and for every process in its making, we assume full re sponsibility. Upon its ability to satisfy the wearer we stand or fall." . No eye not even the eye of the expert can detect a slight mixture of cotton in an unworn fabric. Nor can it tell from the surface of the suit whether the inner and unseen details have been well or badly done. Your certain protection, and ours, is a label which identi fies the garment as coming from a maker whose name is a guarantee of all-wool, and the excellence of work manship that belongs with all-wool the Kirschbaum label.

Iron and coal, necessary to the Industries of Switzerland, to keep the population warm anil to cook the food, came, he said, from Germany, while food was shipped to the French Mediterranean port of Cette from America and the Argentine and transported across part of France to Switzerland, so that since the war Switzerland, as tho President exi'latneri. has been dancing; about, nrst on one side, then on the other. In the attempt to get food through France and coal and iron through Germany, Swiss Speak German Chiefly. Kverythinpr in the office of the Presi dent was the extreme of republican simplicity, lie questioned me about the situation in Germany, especially from the food standpoint. And I learned of the difficulties of the Swiss. It must not be forgotten that in Switzerland about 70 per cent of the people speak German, 23 per cent French and 7 per cent Italian. Many of the German speaking Swiss, of course, sympathize with Germany. They are the farmers, dairymen, etc.; but in French-Switzer land, in the neighborhood of Geneva and Lausanne, the Industrial popula tion sides with the allies. Millions of the delicate fuses used on shells have been manufactured in that part of Switzerland for the entente. In re tali a tion for this the Germans boycotted Swiss watches. The usual German-paid propaganda newspapers operate in the principal towns. The army officers are the first to be influenced. It is the same Switzerland as with the officers of many armies, solely because of the past reputation of the German military ma chine. We and the civil authorities ot South America must not forget that Japan copied German military methods and lhat the armies of Argentina and Chile have been trained for years by German officers sent there on temporary leave of absence from the German army. Von Below, a German officer in Ber lin, who had been In the Argentine, used to make merry over the Argen tine soldiers and said that they ob jected to drilling when it rained. I do not believe this officer, hut I should like to have the brave Argentine offi cers hear pis joKes ana gioes. Sple. Follow Aaaerlcan. We left. After three or four days in Berne, on the evening train for the French frontier. In the train corridors outside the compartments spies stood staring at us. spies pretending-to read newspapers -came into each compart ment; police spies, betrayed by heavy boots: general staff spies, betrayed by a military stiffness; women spies: spies assorted and special. And these gentry had followed me all over Berne for in the neutral countries of Kurope as well as the belligerents nre we constanuy reininded of the Insidious methods or Kaiserism. l'aris was indeed a changed Paris since I had last seen u. in ieiooer 01 1sl3. The pavement in the Place Ven- ilome. In front of the Hotel Ritz. where we stopped, was full of holes, but taxi- calis. almost as extinct as the dodo in Bcfiin. rushed merrily through the croSvdcd streets. Tho boulevards were lively, full of soldiers looking; far more lour friends from Berlin, Jules Cambon, cheery, far more snappy, than the a former French Ambassador there, and heavy-footed German soldiers who so I his family, at the La- Rue Restaurant, i painfully tramped down Unter den , Linden. Many soldiers were to be seen with out an arm or leg:, something impossi ble in Germany, where, especially in Berlin, it has been the policy of the government- to conceal thoso maimed by war from the people at home. Al though constantly walking the streets in Berlin, I never saw a German soldier without an arm or leg. Once motoring near Berlin I came upon a lonely country house where through the iron rails of the surround ing park, numbers of maimed soldiers peered out, prisoners of the autocratic government which dared not show Its victims to the people. At night in Paris the taxicabs and autos rushed dangerously through streets darkened to baffle the Zeppe lins. In the hotel there was little heat, only wood fires in one's room. In the homes a single electric light bulb was permitted for each room; violation of this rule meant loss of electric light from that apartment for three weeks. Paris Lights Few and Dins. In the Ritz restaurant there were lights on the table only. And the gloomy dining room, where a few Americans and British officers and their families conversed in whispers, resembled but little the gay resort so often filled before the war with Amer ican millionaires. Oliver, the head waiter, appeared only at night, absent waiter, appeared only at night, absent during the day on war duties. No lights, no music, it is hard to think of Paris without these. Paris which calls itself the "Ville Lumiere" the City of Light. On our first Sunday in Paris a grand concert was held in the Trocadero a great government-owned auditorium on the banks of the Seine under Canadian auspices. When Ambassador Sharp and entered the center box the vast audi ence rose and cheered a new sensa tion for me to be so welcomed after my war years tn Berlin, where i naa been harried and growled at, the representa tive of a hated people, of a people at once envied for their wealth, hated be cause they had dared to keep their rights and treaties and sell goods to the enemies of Germany, and despised because the Germans believed them too rich and cowardly, too fat and degen erate to fight in the great war for the mastery of the world. Compared to Berlin. Paris seemed a land of abundance. In the restaurant, however, the customer was limited to two courses, but with the privilege of a second helping. Kaabasay Cola for Want .f Coal. I called on Lord Bertie, the British Ambassador, to ask him to convey my acknowledgments to the Honorable Ar il ur James Balfour, from whom I had received a most complimentary com munication. I found him in th. beauti ful home of the British Embassy on the Rue St. Honore, a house so cold for want of coal that I was compelled to make my visit short for fear of pneu monia. .With. ilrs. Gerard wo lunched with opposite the Madeleine. Cambon seemed as game as ever, but fatigued. Briand. who was then Premier, in vited me to breakfast at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The other guests included our Ambassador, Mr. Sharp, Cambon and the Ambassadors of Brit ain, Italy. Russia and Japan and several distinguished Frenchmen. I did not sit next to Briand, as I ranked after the Ambassadors accred ited. to France,, but after lunch I sat alone with him before the fire in one of the large and beautiful salons, and there we had a long talk, as, naturally, he wanted to know about the situation in Germany. He impressed me as a strong man, with the vigor or an orator. a man of temperament, a man enaowea by nature to become a leader of the French as the French were before the war. French Government by Old Men. I was struck. in France by the fact that the leaders, . civil, military and naval, seemed older than those in simi lar positions in other countries. The present Premier, Clemenceau, Is an example ot this ionaness 01 ine French for government by old men. NO MORE FOOT MISERY ICE-MINT NEW DISCOVERY' STOPS SORENESS AND CORNS FALL OFF.
