Thousands of reserves have recently

thin air, and the great powers would be
compelled to take sides for or against
the preservation of the Turkish en-

St. Petersburg, Berlin and London, is a
mysterious game. The commercial and
financial interests, to say nothing of
territorial ambitions, involved in the
final settlement of the eastern question
are so stupendous that "a hours may

developments disastrous to the Hellenic

There are people and people in this
world. All sorts and conditions of men
and women.
In a railway waiting room the other
evening sat handsome girl, apparent
ly about 20 years old. She had gone
early for the west-bound train and was
the first occupant of the waiting room.
Shortly afterward a young man saun-
tered in-an entire stranger to the girl
and, to his surprise, she blushed and
pleasantly said: Good evening"
This was all the young man needed
in the way of introduction, and as he
sat down beside her he thought
he had struck something dead easy"
for the girl looked so much like an in
nocent, unsophisticated country maid
en-. The charming, child-like manner
in which she spoke brought food of
memories that recalled the odor of vio-
let's, new-mown hay and peppermint.
A faint twinge of pam in his foot even
seemed delicious, for was it not that old
stone bruise?

asked the girl.

This with pout and heightened color
that rendered her doubly charming and
caused the young man 10 exert all his
faculties to entertain her during the
half hour that interviewed until train
time.
When the train at last came nosily
into the station and halted very ordi-
nary looking young man stepped off
and the girl rushed up and, shaking
hands, looked up at him as if she ex-
pected something more than IA mere
handshake. But the young mans face
