Alfred #. Morgan, a well known Eng

weaker people into submission. One of
the delights of my last visit to this
country few years ago was to realize
that you had practically no standing
army. Now you've gone and got into
a lot of trouble in the Philippines, and
I sincerely hope you'll soon get out of
it and disband your army. What we
want is peace-peace in the Philippines

But peace gives no excuse and little

Finally Napoleon advanced to the
very outskirts of Berlin just at the
time that Louisa was recovering from
an attack of typhoid fever. Declaring
that she would run any risk rather than
fall into the hands of the French, the
invalid was lifted from her bed one
morning in January and borne to

fierce contest for the frail life sacrificed
so soon after. The snow fell thick and
fast and the old servants who carried
their pale and beautiful young queen
down to the carriage wept with grief,
for no one believed she would survive
the journey. Now the road was blocked
up by snow, now they had to cross the
sea in an open boat and their first
night was spent without food of any
kind in a log house with few doors and
broken windows. through which the
whirling snowflakes fell thick upon the
couch of the royal invalid.

and trophies of the great general and
insolently scrawling with his finger a
capital M in the dust which had
gathered upon the tomb of Frederick.
Upon this very tomb a few short
months before the emperor of Russia,
the king of Prussia and Louisa had
sworn to avenge the wrongs of the
hatherland; and Napoleon, TO whom O
vlrtuouS woman was a greater riddle
than the enigma of the sphinx, imme-
diately spread from the queens apart

calunaIous reports regarding the alli-
ance of the handsome car Nand the
beauteouS queen, even causing his gross
insinuations TO be illustrated by a cop
per-piate, which was so much of a low
caricature that it forced the laughter
CT the vilest. This stab at her virtue
was the severeSt of the many trials
which crowded thick upon the sad close
of Louisa's life. Therefore when it was
decided by the ministers of state that
as a last resort she who had Keen so
grievously iasulted by the coarse
fibered Napoleon should go before him
as suppliant errtreating him to make
less arbitrary terms for the humiliation
OF Prussia, she accepted this mission
only because she felt it to be her sa-
cred duty. The troubles of her coun-
try, the loss of some of her children
and the lingering fever had greatly
shattered her spirit as well as her body

their double royal marriages were cele-

After the wedding the crown prince
and his bride repaired to a most unpre
tentious little palace at Paretz, where
for four years they lived the happiest
and most uneventful of lives, until the
death of the old king forced them into
the glare of public life. 1t is good to
look back upon these peaceful days in
which Louisa stored happiness, health
and strength with which to battle for
her home and country. Here she danced
at the harvest fetes with her people;
here she invigorated her mind by a
most broadening course of study. 1t

Although but 81 when her husband

knowledge of past history and fine COM
prehension of state difficulties made her
judgment most valuable; still, she
never interfered, at least openly in
public affairs. Realizing, too, how jeal-
Gus her husband was of his prerogative,
she always said to those who implored
her to make a special intercession

matters they were most congenial, and
her husband took a sly pleasure in
