When Germany entered the war it counted upon winning a quick victory and then imposing a money indemnity that would cover what the war had co9t it. Both parts of the programme have failed. Nevertheless, Germany has never breathed a doubt of its winning eventually, or abandoned its intention to make its enemies repay a large part of its expenses. The active discussion of the subject in the German press may be premature, but in view of German confidence in the future it is not unaccountable. The Entente Allies have never expressed any intention of demanding an indemnity for themselves;they are willing to pay the cost of relieving the world of the Prussian menace. But they have declared that if they win they shall require Germany and its allies to rebuild and restore what they have destroj'ed in Belgium,Serbia, France and Roumania. Either outcome means an almost ruinous drain upon the resources of nations already upon the verge of bankruptcy; but since the demand for an indemnity implies the power to enforce it, the demand must be met, however great the hardship it imposes. The question then arises, could the Entente Allies, or could Germany,respond to such a demand? Undoubtedly Germany would not require the whole of the indemnity in money. From France it would accept a slice of territory,from Russia its Polish pnssessionsjbutfrom Great Britain,although it would demand a few of its colonies and a fleet of its ships of war.it would try to extort a huge sum in cash. If the German Emperor could enforce such terms upon his enemies in Europe, this, country would get off easily if it had only to discard the Monroe Doctrine Whenever You Need a General Tonic Take Grove's The Old Pfandard Grove's Tasteless chill Tonic s equally valuable as a General Toniu because it contains the well known tonic properties of QUININE and IRON.

There is plenty of gold on both sides jf the fighting line, and, although a great deal of it has been . transferred to this country, it has continued to circulate in all the Allied countries. In Germany it has been bottled up,driven from circulation by paper money, and concentrated in banks. If, now,we bear in mind that the debts of warring nations appear as the capital of their creditors, we shall see that the governments, bankrupt \ though they may be,still have ample wealth to draw upon, still retain the * power to raise funds and to convert r those funds into the required gold. It is not yet decided which group of powers will be able to bleed gold * from its enemies; but into the hands that hold the lancet gold to the required amount will surely flow.? 4 Youth's Companion. HI 1 ' DAYS THAT ARE NO MORE. If time could only carry me away To the days that are no more; When I used to roam in my childhood's home With brothers and sisters at play. But the years have passed and such ( changes, alas! The old homestead's gone to decay. No loved ones are near me, No sweet voice to cheer me, And I am alone today. Alone with my memory of bygone hours And thoughts of future years When some day we shall meet at the pearly gate. With smiles and naught of tears. So I sit and gaze in the fire's red blase; And picture the days gone by, With the wish just to live them over again; Oh, the dream-days, with never a sigh! ?Mrs Cosmo E Brockington.
