It Is understood that tho German reply, which will answer for the entire German alliance, will bo for warded to Homo within the next few days. The Swiss press Is showing restraint In Its comment upon thc declaration of Chan cellor Mlchaells that Germany cannot offer peace until overtures are forthcoming from tho Entente. AMSTICntlAM.

Dispatches from Berlin today Indicated thli peaslmls J X'.Vl hy ,,,D Public following Chaticci lor MlchaclIVs speech In tho main commit tco of the RclchRtag, portions of which ap peared In this morning's newspapers. "Tho enemy's war alms prove their do site to annihilate Germany." Mlchaells was quoted as declaring, "therefore no present desire for peace exists. "Up to the present there has been no opportunity to deliberate with out allies regarding the Pope's note. There Is no doubt of the honesty Impelling the note, and therefore I would regard It sympathet ically." Mlchaells denied that the Pope's note had been Inspired by the Central Powerp. In conclusion, the Chancellor declared that Germany's alliance with Austria-Hungary was now stronger than ecr. Following Mlchaells the leaders of the various Germnn political parties addressed the main committee. All paid especial at tention to the Pope's peace plans. Socialist speakers declared their party "welcomed the Pope's action ' The Centrist leaders said thev regarded his action us making extraordinarily val uable pi-ogress toward peace and as a step which they hoped would meet with full success. The National Llbertl party rcpresenta thes expressed the attitude that so far they had been unable to examine thc subject thoroughly, but that they supported the Chancellor's position. The Conservatles took a similar view. Independent Socialists speakers expressed regret that the other party leaders had only announced their general sympathy with the Pope's action "without entering Into any (If tailed discussion of It." The main cmm'lttes elected the Centrist leader Kehrenhach president.

The statement or Cnancellpr Mlchaells before the Reichstag that Gerrnany had no part In' the framing of the Pope's peace pioposals had no effect here today on ac tion the United States may take. The Chancellor's pessimism alto caused little surprise. Had Germany regarded the tlmo propitious for peace she would have made lenewed proposals herself, It Is believed. Regardless of whether the Pope's docu ment was Inspired by Austria, or was ad vanced as a purely neutral proposal. It does not touch the fundamental principles for which America Is fighting.

There are thousands of homes in this city, which is famous throughout the world for the number and character of its individ ual homes, that bear witness to this. Here is a Philadelphia home furnished complete by the Linde Store 20 years ago at a cost of $3803, upon which the customer made a clear saving of $927 under the price of every other store. But by no means do we de pend upon large furnishings to make substantial savings, as hundreds and hundreds of small er homes in this community wilj prove. Here is a modern home, fur nished complete in the Linde ' 1916 August Furniture Sale for $578, which was $132.50 below the next lowest prices quoted the owner by competitors. Are Not Such Savings Wprtft Making? Even during these unusual times, when the high cost of living is a serious problem, our customers report, almost daily, savings of from $100 to $150 "on furnishings totaling $350 to $400. The reason for these startling savings is just as simple as A B C. We save $100,000 a year on our location and operating expenses, cveru dollar of which goes to our customers in lowest prices. Besides, we have no losses to make lip on account of special payment plans, elaborate entertainments and bad accounts. Being a one-line store and an individual business, we arc better able to give that personal service which insures thc highest degree of satisfaction at thc very lowest possible cost. In these days of food speculation and trust manipulation, which are so Joudly, con demned by the great mass ot our people, opportunities for real savings such as we offer should be joyfully embraced by the public.
