PEACE QUESTIONS ARE NEARLY
SETTLED, PRESIDENT DECLARES
tarls, April 15. The text' of Presi
dent Wilson's statement on the progress
of the Peace Conference follows :
"In view of the fact that the ques
tions which must be settled in the peace
with Germany have been brought so
near a complete solution that they can
now quickly be put through the final
process of drafting, those who have
been most constantly in conference
about them hare decided to advise that
the German plenipotentiaries be invited
I to meet the representatives of the nsso-
, ciated belligerent nations at Versailles
'on April -j.
"This does not mean that the many
I other questions connected with the Gen
eral peace settlement will be interrupted
or that their tonsideiation, which has
rapid progress will now be made with
these questions, so thnt they may also
presently be expected to be ready for
final settlement.
"It is hoped that the questions
mot directly affecting ltalji especially
the Adriatic question, enn now be
brought to a speedy agreement. The
Adriatic questions will bo given for
the time precedent over other questions
and pressed by continual study to its
tinnl stage.
"The settlements that belong espe
cially to the treaty with Germany will,
in this way, be got out of the way at
the same time that all other settle
ments are being brought to u com
plete formulation. It is realized that,
though this process must be followed,

What Happens
to the food you eat?
- w,
fr j
- i
During digestion certain
kinds of food containing pro
teins, such as meat, egg
white, milk casein, wheat
gluten, etc., are split into
many different substances.
Some of these the body uses
to rebuild damaged or dead
tissues; some, however, arc
not only useless and harm
ful but in some cases actually
poisonous. Regular, thorough
bowel evacuation gets rid of
the latter.
Constipation permits stagna
tion and absorption ,of these
poisons into the blood, with
injury to the whole body.
Taking castor oil, pills, salts,
mineral waters, etc., in order
to force the bowels to move
does not cannot cure con
stipation -but makes it
worse.
On the other hand Nujol
overcomes constipation and
brings about the habit of
easy, thorough bowel evac
uation at regular intervals,
because Nujol is not a drug,
does not act like any dcug.
Nujol brings about a return
to Nature's methods of sup
plying necessary lubrication
of the bowel contents, by
facilitating intestinal muscu
lar action, by absorbing poi
sonous matter, and thus se
curing necessary cleansing
of the intestinal canal and
protection of the defensive
properties of the blood itself.
Nujol has no deleterious
after effects, produces no.
bad habits, makes the bowels
regular at clockwork.
N,ujol is efficient at any age
under any conditions is
satisfactory and safe.
How and Why Nujol over
comes constipation is de

and authoritative booklet,

Music and Easter Are
Inseparable
Easter without music would be like Christmas without gifts, Thanks
giving without turkey or Fourth of July without flags.
It is the season when Nature and mankind alike are joyous, and for
centuries man has expressed his joy through music.
When we think of the state of the world last Eastertime, even the
countless bickerings and misunderstandings of today seem the trifles they
are, for all the present turmoil is but the growing pains of a new and bet
ter universe. We have much to rejoice over and no means of doing it that
quite equals the piano. .
Everyone Should Have a Piano
for Easter
When we say piano we mean either the instrument that can be played
only by hand, or the player or reproducing piano. It is no longer necessary
to have a trained musician in the family to have music in the home.
Player-pianos and reproducing- pianos bring to your own house the
great artists of the time. People who have such instruments can have,
nightly, such concerts as would have been musical events a little while ago.
Twenty years ago, for example, when the Wanamaker Piano Store
started, the first practical player-piano had just about been built. Think of
the strides from this to the wonderful Ampico reproducing piano !
When musicians think of pianos they think of a comparatively small
group of instruments that are tried and true. Among these names are
