VIRTUOUS people often linve a deep conviction of sin.
It may conic upon tlieni in tlic middle of t lie night,
or when they liave liceii many hours alone, or in the midst
of a great storm, or at first sight of the ocean, or of moun
tain peaks, or when listening to wonderful music, or read
ing a classic book.
Many persons who have no obvious connection with the
war have some indefinable feeling of being very much at
fault when they read the plain truth about its horrors as
told, for instance, by Charles lOdward Russell in this issue.
t is impossible for sensitive souls not to feel a personal
reaction to the war, not to succumb to this subconscious ac
cusation of being responsible for the sins of the race, iiot
to lie obsessed with a need to compensate, somehow, indi
vidually, for the whole tremendous wrong.
There are hundreds, thousands of men anil women who
would die gladly, by any torturing process, to end the war.
They are all sane people, persons who are never moved
by hysteria or revivals or the mob spirit, often persons who
"have everything to live for."
.Some of them have never put the question to them
selves. They could not define the emotion, perhaps, but if
the question of living or dying to save Europe were put to
them, they would in all sincerity reply immediately in the
affirmative. Or if action were possible, thev would drop
all human interests on the instant and turn to the great
sacrifice.
This is fundamental religion, as it has been developed
by the war,
"Greater love hath no man than this, thai a man lay
down his life for his friends."

A HIGH PRICE FOR SIMPLICITY
ONE result of the war is that the crowned heads of Eur
ope are showing better taste,
liaroness von 1 ledeniann, .official dressmaker to the
ltritish royal family, has honored these shores with a visit,
and expresses surprise at the styles displayed by American
women.
Since the war, women's wardrobes have been cut down
to the barest necessities, the baroness reports.
"As a symbol of the sadness that prevails, no decollete
is considered good taste. A curtailment in the display of
diamonds is also very evident. The queen may be seen at
night wearing a simple aigrette, a small crown or a little
string of pearls; but nothing more ostentatious."
Mow, isn't that charming!
5ut it strikes us that, the common people of Europe are
paying a heavy juice for their royalty's education in simplicity.

Your Money
Buys Quality!
Coupons or premiums have
never been used as an induce
ment to smoke Prince Albert!
WNG BURNING PIPE ANii 1
lg&ArTJA:;;i ij
The correctness of our belief that
smokers do prefer quality rather than
premiums or coupons is proven by
the enthusiasm with which Prince
Albert pipe and cigarette tobacco has
been received throughout the civi
lized world! Premiums or coupons
have never been offered as an induce
ment to smoke it!
Neither national nor state restric
tions on the use of premiums or
coupons can in any way affect Prince
Albert's sale!
It is not to be wondered at that
when smokers consider a choice of
tobaccos, their tastes based on
quality instantly turn them to
the national joy smoke
Prince Albert is sold strictly on merit. It
is a tobacco of choice ipiality. and made by
an exclusive patented process ;, Joes cut out
bite and parch! It took three years and a
fortune to perfect that process so that today
every man with a desire to smoke a pipe or
roll his own cigarettes am do so without a
comeback, no matter how tender his tongue
or throat may be!
Your taste and satisfaction is proof that
Prince Albert quality is more desirable than
coupons or premiums.
You buy Prince Albert everywhere tobacco
is sold, in toppy red bags, 5c; tidy red tins, 10c;
handsome pound and half-pound tin humi
dors, and in that tine crystal-glass humidor
with sponge-moistener top that keeps the
tobacco in such perfect condition.
