The German reply says that the imperial government greets with special sympathy the leading idea m - which his Holiness clearly expresses the conviction that the future mater* ial power of arms must be superseded l>y. the moral power of right. Text of Reply The text of the reply reads: "Herr Cardinal: Your Eminence has been good enougli, together with your letter of August 2, to transmit -to the Kaiser and King, my most gracious master, the note of his Holiness, * the Pope, In which his Holiness, filled with grief at the devastation of the world war, makes an emphatic peace appeal to the heads of the belligerent peoples. The Kaiser-King has d*-eigned to acquaint me wltn yonr eminence's letter and to entrust the reply to me. "His Majesty has been following for a considerable time with high respect and sincere gratitude his Holi iness' efforts in a spirit of true imI partiality to alleviate as far as posl -slble the sufferings of the war and ft to hasten the end of hostilities. The ^ ""Kaiser sees in the latest, step of his "Holiness fresh proof of his noble and "humane feelings, and cherishes a lively desire that for the benefit ot the entire world the. papal appeal may meet with success. me messing or reaee "The effort of Pope Benedict is to . pave the way to an understanding* amongst all peoples and migfrt mora surely reckon on a sympathetic reception and the whole-hearted support from his Majesty, seeing that the Kaiser since taking over the government has regarded it as his principal and most sacred task to preserve the blessings of peace for the German people and the world. In his first speech from the throne at the opening of the German Reichstag on June 25, 1888, the Kaiser promised that his love of the German army and his position toward it should never lead them into temptation to cut short the benefits of peace unless war w?re a necessity, forced on us by an j attack on the empire or Its allies. The German armv should safeguard neace for ns and should peace, never thelens be t>rokn=? it would be In a position to win with "honor. The Kaiser has, by hi3 acts, fulfilled the promise he then made In twenty-six years of hapny rale despite provocations and temptations. y The Kaiser's Efforts "In the crisis which led to the present world conflict his Majesty's efforts were up to the last moment cjrected towards settling the conflict by peaceful means. After the war had broken out, against his wish and thp TTaiaPr in r>r?n-?Tir>r?H/->T? Trtth his high allies was the first solemnly to declare his readiness to enter into peace negotiations. The German people supported his Majesty in his keen desire for peace.

In this connection we lust not forget the words of the imaortal Lincoln, who said: "You can ool some of the people all of the ime; you can fool all of the people ome of the time, but you cannot ool all of the people all of the time." 5o if there is not behind every advertisement a dollars and cents valie to the article advertised, no mount of advertising will stimulate he sale on such an article beyond l certain point.
