around yon and kisses you you Know
Immediately whether you are in love
with him or not, even II you have not
been perfectly sure before. There is
my sister who, as You know, married
Prince Bullion. She is awfully happy,
but she has told me since that when
she accepted him she really was not
absolutely certain Of her feelings, but
as soon as he embraced her she knew
that she was madly in love with him.
On the other hand, there is my dear
friend, the Duchess Frou-Frou. It Is
not generally known that she was once
engaged for few days to q young
duke from the west, She had seen q
good deal of him and liked him. and
when he proposed to her by letter she
accepted him in the same way, think
ing she was in love with him or would
be when she saw him again; but when
he came on and put his arm around
her and kissed her she suddenly dis
covered that she could not endure
him, and broke the engagement imme-
diately."
Well" said the prince - and the
sound of his voice was somehow trife
odd for strictly ,natter.of-fact person
suppose we make the test -
That is what have thought might
be tt., best way" said the princess.
"Of course you understand that 1t
would be entirely matter-of-fact and
experimental. "
"of course, = replied the prince.
"But stop, " interrupted the princess,
for the prince had taken step toward
her. "as so much depends upon this
test, would it not be wiser to think it
over u little first, so as to be sure of
making It in the best way-or, perhaps,
even to take few lessons in kissing
and embracing?"
The prince looked little disappointed
at this, but, of course, he soon saw the
wisdom of the princess suggestion.
She said she was going to pay visit
in the country for two weeks, and they
arranged that the test should be
made as soon as she returned.
The prince Immediately sent for a
professor Of Delsarte and explained the
situation to him.
s'But, your royal highness, said the
Delsarte profess or, trembling, II cam
not possibly teach your royal highness
kissing and embracing in two weeks.
To do that sort OF thing properly, one
must go through progressive and
comprehensive system OF physical.
mental and moral training kissing
and embracing are very complex, in
deed. why" he continued, growing
more and more excited, they come al
most at the very end OF the Delsarte
course. and that, as your royal high
ness knows, takes four years. =
II can't help that said the matter
of.fact prince, II have got 70 Learn as
well as can in two weeks, and You
may come every morning directly after
breakfast to give me q lesson.
So the prince took lesson every
morning directly after breakfast and
spent an the rest Of his time practicing
kissing and embracing ON his valet.

the United States today. When the
ships now in course OF construction are
completed we will rank as the fifth
naval power, surpassed only 10y England,
France, Russia and Italy. We shall have
passed both Spain and Germany and can
once more take rank among the naval
powers of the world. ! am aware
that this is the first public announce

the statement is made not unady!scdly.

comparison if appears that with ships
which constitute the lighting force of
the two governments the United States
can throw in any one direction at Il

against $4,000 pounds by Germany. In
speed and efficiency our cruisers far sur

LONDON, March lG-The London
Russian jewish committee has sent to
every Jewish banker and bank director,
bank manager, stock broker, and agents
dc change IN Europe, a passionate appeal
to combine in boycotting Russian loans
and in boycottiDg trade in Russian sc
curities generally. The appeal is signiti
can't 10 connection with the fact that the
Russian government has just issued II
ukase providing for an internal loan, ard
that Russian bankers are cndcayOrIng to
extend their relations with the money
I centcrs outside Of Russia. Owing to the
leading position Of the jews in the
money markets Of Europe. it is eXpecte
that the appeal, If complied with, will
eifectually drive Russian securities Of

great disaster in Russian industrial en-
terprises. This appeal is in retaliation
for the continued severity Of tho car in
