Judging from report* from druggie

its remarkable record of success. ,
An examining nhysieian for one of the
prominent Life. Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the as
toriishing statement that one reason why

common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica

that they have the disease. It is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this

FAMOUS j
ii. PEACE TREATIES i
By H. IRVING KING j
«Copyright, 1919,' by the McClure News paper Syndicate.)
THE HOLY ALLIANCE, 1815.
Emperor Alexander of Russia Was Preparing an Alliance, the Plan of Which
Was Conceived on the Most Altruistic Lines.
Wlille the "prosale destinies of Eu
rope" were being settled at the Con
gress of Vleuna amid conflicting inter
ests in 1814-15—while. In short, the
peace delegates of -the European na
tions were endeavoring to straighten
matters out after the Napoleonic wars,
just* as the delegates at the Quai
d'Orsay are now assembled to straight
en matters out as a conclusion to the
recent war, an idealist in the person
of Emperor Alexander of Russia was
preparing an alliance the plan of
which was conceived on the most al
truistic lines and which, lie fondly
hoped, would bring eternal peace to
the world. It was not only to be a
league to enforce peace between, the
nations, but was to lay down certain
principles which should insure peace,
and prosperity within the borders of
the nations. This was the Iloly Al
liance.
Emperor Alexander at that time was
under the influence of a mystic. It
seems that there was an "occult party
about the Russian throne then, just as
there was in the recent days of the
lat^ Emperor Nicholas. Emperor Alex
ander declared that there should be an
alliance of nations founded upon high
er principles than those which had
heretofore guided the councils of
princes and labored assiduously to ob
tain converts to his plan. By a procla
mation issued at St. Petersburg dated
"on the day of the birth of our Savior,
25, December, 1815" the czar ordered
read in all the churches a "convention
concluded at Paris on the 25th of Sep
tember, 1815, between the emperors of
Russia ami Austria and the king of
Prussia."
Object in Farming League.
In It these three sovereigns solemnly
declared that they had "no other ob
ject in forming the league except to
publish to the whole world the fact
that In tin? administration of their re
spective governments, as well as In
their relations with foreign states,''
they would take for their sole guidance
the precepts of the Christian religion,
namely, justice, charity and peace. By
its terins the signatory nations were to
keep peace with each other and gen
keep peace
TREATY OF UTRECHT, 1713.
The End ?f the War of the Spanish Succession in Europe and cf Queen Anne's
War in America.
-
I On April 1L 1713, was signed
Utrecht in Holland a treaty of peace
which closed a war that had been
raging for twelve years—-the War of
the Spanish Succession; known on
this side of the water as Queen
Anne's war. The question at issue
was who should be king of Spain.
I<eopold of Austria, emperor of Ger
many, Claimed it for his grandson.
France had become a mighty power
and the nations viewed with alarm a
Bourbon prince vhô ra, S ht t **'* ne
king of France on the throne of Spain.
At once was formed 1he "Grand Alli
ance" of England. Holland. Austria
and Germany, and, later. Portugal.
France's allies were Bavaria and the
duchies of Modena and Savoy. Spain
aided with France but lacked money
and men. This war brought out the
splendid military genius of Marl
horough and the scarcely less remark
able genius of Prince Eugene of
Savoy : and the victories of Blenheim,
ItamilHea. Ondenarde and Malplaquet
humbled the pride and broke the pow
er of France.
Colonies Bore Brunt of War.
In* this country the northern and
southern colonies bore the brunt of
the war. The Carolinas, then one
colony extending to Spanish Florida,
»«nt a force which captured St. Au
gustine but retired upon the arrival
o/a French army. Further west a
Carolina expedition fought Its way to
H,e Gulf of Mexico. The French and
Spanish fleets, attacked Charleston,
but were driven off. In Massachu
setts Haverhill and Deerfield were
turned by forces of French ami In
dians and In the heart of the state
«he people were, kept in terror for
venrs by prowling bands who burned
* killed. A New England force,

erally see that peace was not disturbed
throughout the world.
All the European nations subse
quently signed tlie covenant except
England. The restored king of France
did not withhold his consent. In Eng
land, however, tlie Holy Alliance was
looked upon with suspicion from the
first, and thougli there is no doubt of
the sincerity of Emperor Alexander
it was feared that It might serve as a
cloak fqr tyranny and territorial ag
grandizement. The terms of the al
liance were so drawn as to be highly
altruistic In the enunciation of prin
ciples hut somewhat hazy with regard
to their application. Metternich, the
Austrian premier, appro veil the al
liance with a few cynical remarks.
Wellington said England would de
mand "something more definite.-"
What had been feared by the Eng
lish statesmen happened. The Holy
Alliance was evoked by interested sov
ereigns to cover acts of tyranny and
aggression. Imperial, historians agree
that the treaty of the Holy Alliance
itself was afterwards unjustly blamed
for the acts committed in its name. At
Verona in 1822 the Holy Alliance de
termined upon interference in Spain to
suppress the popular uprising there
and France, as "mandatory, ' carried
out that resolution.
Enunciation of Monroe Doctrine.
At this congress of the Holy Alliance
at Verona »lie proposition was made
and agitated, but not brought to a
vote, that the armies of the alliance
should cross the sens and effect a con
quest of the revolted American colonies
of Spain. When the news of this
reache«! England, Canning, British sec
retary of foreign affairs®wrote to Mr.
Rash, American minister to England.
Mr. Rush wrote to President Monroe
and the result was the enunciation of
the Monroe doctrine.
\ The idea of the Holy Alliance, as Em
peror Alexander planned it, was sub
lime^ But it worked in a diametrically
opposite manner from what he In
tended. Perhaps its provisions were
too vaguely drawn—perhaps the world
was not ready for it. After the con
gress of Verona It began to "peter
out," itnd ceased to exist in 1S30.

Truce Between French and English.
There was a truce between the
French and the English but fighting
went on between the Germans and tlie
French. Germany began to split up
Prussia being the first to desert the
f emperor. The spring of 1713 had now
come and England fixed the month of
April ns the very latest date at which
a peace must be signed. On the elev
enth of that month a peace was
s'gned between Prussia. England.
France. Holland, Savoy and Portugal
The duke of Savoy and tlie eleetor
cf Prussia were recognized as kings;
and Sicily (later changed for Sar

For years we have been explaining how the popularity ot
Fletcher's Castoria has brought out innumerable imitations, sub
stitutes and counterfeits.
To protect the babies: to shield the homes and in defense or
generations to come we appeal to the better judgment of parents t®
insist on having Fletcher's Castoria when in need of a child's med
icine. And remember above all things that a child's medicine is
made for children—a medicine prepared for grown-ups S notmter
changeable. A baby's food for a baby. And a baby's medicine is
just as essential for the baby.
The Castoria Recipe (it's on every wrapper) has been prepared by
the same hands in the same manner for so many*years that the signa
tuie of Chas. H. Fletcher and perfection in the product are synonymous.
