Louis Wolf & Co. v. United States, Cust. &
 Pat.App., 107 F.2d 819, 827; United States v. Belmont, N.Y., 57 S.Ct. 758, 761, 301 U.S. 324, 81 L.
 Ed. 1134.

 about March, the third month, to which the word
 An agreement, league, or contract between two
 or more nations or sovereigns, formally signed by
 commissioners properly authorized, and solemnly
 ratified by the several sovereigns or the supreme
 power of each state. Edye v. Robertson, 5 S.Ct.
 247, 112 U.S. 580, 28 L.Ed. 798; Ex parte Ortiz,
 C.C.Minn., 100 F. 962; Charlton v. Kelly, 33 S.Ct.
 945, 954, 29 S.Ct. 447, 57 L.Ed. 1274, 46 L.R.A.,
 N.S., 397.
 A "treaty" is not only a law but also a contract be
tween two nations and must, if possible, be so construed as
 to give full force and effect to all its parts.

 United States v. Reid, C.C.A.Or., 73 F.2d 153, 155.
 Personal treaties relate exclusively to the persons of the
 contracting sovereigns, such as family alliances, and treaties guaranteeing the throne to a particular sovereign and
 his family. As they relate to the persons, they expire of
 course on the death of the sovereign or the extinction of
 his family. With the advent of constitutional government
 in Europe these treaties have lost their importance. Real
 treaties relate solely to the subject-matters of the convention, independently of the persons of the contracting par
ties, and continue to bind the state, although there may
 be changes in its constitution or in the persons of its rulers. Boyd's Wheat. Int. Law § 29.
 Private Law
 The discussion of terms which immediately pre
cedes the conclusion of a contract or other trans
action. A warranty on the sale of goods, to be
 valid, must be made during the "treaty" preceding the sale. Chit. Cont. 419; Sweet.
 TREATY OF PEACE. An agreement or contract
 made by belligerent powers, in which they agree
 to lay down their arms, and by which they stipulate the conditions of peace and regulate the manner in which it is to be restored and supported.
