ANOTHER FAKE PEACE OFFER. Germany it is reported has submitted another alleged peace offer through Spain. While no official statement has been received it is stated the terms are similar to those heretofore offered, that is that Germany dictate the peace to suit herself, all required of the allies being m that they assent to it. It demands the return ot all Ger "man colonies, the disarmament of Gibraltar and the Suez canal, no annexations or indemnities on the western front, the recognition of the Rumanian and Russian treat ies and the determining of the- fate of Belgium and other small countries at the peace conference. It is the terms that might be offered by a victor, who was not overly generous, but not one that the allies can even consider from a defeated enemy, for that is what Germany is. She will fight long and hard yet, but she' is whipped just the same and her leaders know it. It is suggested by a military expert that the Rhine, not the Aisne is the place where peace terms will be considered. This is putting it mildly, for it is inconceivable that the war is to end without Germany feeling some of the things due .to fighting on her own soil. The question of Belgium will never be left to any peace conference to decide. It will be one of the pre-requisites to entertaining any peace talk. As to Russia and Rumania and their fake treaties they will never be recognized so long as the United States has a dollar or a man able to fight left.' To make a peace with Russia under the thumb of Germany would be to leave Prussianism with a natoin of nearly two hundred millions of people for it to Germanize, and thus fortify itself for another world struggle. Germany does not seem to understand that this is a fight to a finish, and that finish will' either be a world forever free from the menace of Prussianism, or a world in which civilization is doomed to revert to- another long dethronement. There is no use ever thinking of peace until this is borne home on the German people. They must form some kind of a ' government with which the allies can deal before, peace talk can be indulged in. There can be no peace treaty made with a gang of military dictators who in advance warn the world that they will respect such a treaty so long as it suits them to do so and no longer. Germany must clean her own house before, making overtures of peace. If you have not already done so, fill up your pocket book and be ready for the celebration Tuesday.

It's hard to understand the skate who's' schem ing early, scheming late, to see how little he can give: he uugnt to De asnamea to live, committees call at his abode, and kindly asfc him to unload. He backs and fills and hums and haws, and shoves some piffle through his jaws: "I dug up fifty cents last May; I can't spare anything to day." And he can face himself, that guy, who ought to uhnt a hole and die. But in the long sad years to come he'll find this world is out of plumb; he failed to whoop for liberty, and while he lives on earth he'll be as Irme-, some as the yaller doe: that hanes around the rit.v mnromo Oh, we must give until it hurts, until we've soaked our Sunday shirts, and when we've given all we own, still strive to give another bone. Three Farmers Killed By Lightning Stroke The German crown prince has suddenly changed his plans about retreating from the Marne and has appar ently determined to fight it out where he is. He has prob ably made a serious mistake. Repovts of the battle front show he is in a dangerous position with his lines of com munication under fire and in danger of being severed at pny time. Once this is done his escape would be problem atical at least. With the tremendous quantity of muni tions required, and his communications cut off he would soon find himself disarmed. Ihe result can be foreseen If he sticks to his determination, there should be some terrific fighting' within the next few days, for if he is to free himself he must act quickly. Every day conditions remain as they are adds to his danger. That he will make a terrific effort either to break through on the southern front, or to crowd back the Americans and French around boissons and on the line south of that point, is certain Jlost likely the latter attempt will be made, for it will be necessary to force this front back to make his retreat reasonably safe. .

One horse was killvd. sic,!, Another thing that has caused a change in. the Ger man plans on the western front is the danger to the house of Hohenzollern at home if the much boasted drive that was to bring peace and victory results in a terrible de feat. The kaiser and his henchmen know they are liable ito lose their jobs quickly should the German people wake Xip to the fact that they have teen deliberately deceived for the past two years. Of the two evils, of losing a few Hundred thousand men or losing their jobs as rulers, they prefer the former. It is not any of the family of titled robbers who will lose their lives, but instead iust the com mon German soldier,.whose life is of no more value in the estimation of the ruling family than that of a snake.

I itold her all, about Evelyn's baby that she was named for me, and what a cunning little thing she was. Then, without meaning to, I told her that I had lost my baby. Sho was all sympathy, all interest. "You will havo children. I hone." she said. "They- make life worth white, my dear. We are apt to be come seltish when we. are without them." . "But, you arc not seltish! Neither you nor Mr. Babcock," I said so im pulsively that sho siniied. A COuWElt OP A WOMAX'S HEART. .

A woman, my dear, can hide her feelings more easily than a man; even hor grief she can conceal. if she feels that she is making, him happier toy doing so. Mr kidbnnd almost worshipped our dang iter, perhaps no moro so than I did but had to be brave for him and for myself too. It is often so, Mrs. How ard. Men aro but children in many ways. A wife often has to be both wife and mother to them." I made mo reply; iiono was needed. And, in a moment, we were chatting gaily again about th? beautiful roads, th hoze on the distaat hills, the things that would ordinarily attract attention whien riding over a strange road. But the little glimpse she had given me of her heart the hiding of her own grief to niake (t hat of the man she loved easier to boar remained with me, and made me, if anything, more in love with her eharaoter than before. I ro- niciuber, I wished mother could know her, and thought what good friends they would be, because tiiey had tho same ideas. I had never known anyone so self sacrificing as my mother, father, the boys, were always her first thought. 1 used 'to tell her that, by the time she igot around to thinking of herself, sho had no thoughts left- Mrs. Bab cock wins that kind, too. She never seemed to think of herself. We returned to the house about half past four. I told Mrs. Babcock whalt time we dined, and asked her if enjoy seeing my little namesake? Ev en joy seeing my little nanicsae? Ev elyn had telephoned while we were out that she was going to bring -little Helen over. "Do let me stav with vou and see tho baby!"

I was very fond of Evelyn, aud very proud of my namesake. 1 would be glud to have Mrs. Babcock seo thicm. She acknowledged the introduction to Evelyn graciously, then held out hor arms for the baby. Little Helen fairly jumped toward her, cooing and laughing, in her baiby way. vvo laiujhed ito seo her, but when Evelyn tried to take her away, after half an hour, she shrieked so loudly we had to allow Mrs. Babcock to tuck her into her carriage ami walk part of tho way home with Evelyn to quiet her. Of course 1 went along, not Knowing whether to be amused or embarrassed. But Mrs. Babcock soon set me right. "All bmbies act that way with me.
