PREFACE. '

Ir
 Oulda's world famous novel, Under Two Flags" dramatized by Paul M. Potter, has made a great hit on the stage. The dramatist has dealt mainly with that part of the book in which Cigarette is so conspicuous a figure and in which the Hon. Bertie Cecil, having fled from England under q cloud, is known only as Louis Victor" and "Bel-a-faire-peur," corporal in the French army in Algiers. Cecil prior to his flight is a member of the First Life guards in London and is such q verlta- ble Beau Brummel that he is called Beauty of the Brigades." He is an athlete. wonderful amateur steeple- chase jockey, a great fiirt and the re- cipient of the smiles of numerous young matrons, the principal one being Lady Gueneyere. He is u second son, a spendthrift, and his means are so limited that he calls himself "a pauper and a guardsman." His father, Lord Royallieu, hates him, but is very fond of his younger brother, Berkeley, a weak youth, with little sense of honor. While Keeping tryst with Lady Guen- evere her reputation becomes imperil- ed, and Cecil gives his word of honor that he will not tell where lie was the 18th of the month. He has incurred the enmity of race track tout and welcher named Ben Davis, whose friend, Ezra Baroni, becomes possessed of note signed "Bertie Cecir' and in- dorsed with the forged signature Rockingham" the name of Cecil's bosom friend, Lord Rockingham, fu- fure Duke of Lyonmesse. better known asf"Seraph," colonel of the First Life guards. When accused of the forgery by Baroni. Cecil assures Seraph. who implicitly believes In his honesty, that he is innocent but when given an op- portunity to prove that he was not in Baroni's office on the 10th of the month getting the forged note discounted he refuses to do so because of his pledge 10 Lady Gueneyere and because a blur red. scrawled. miserable letter, plotted with tears, reveals to him the identity of the real forger. He submits to ar rest, but later. when Baroni attempts 10 have him dragged handcunred through the streets, escapes with his valet, Rake, to France. Prior to his ar rest Seraph's little S-year-old sister, Lady Yenetia, tells him she hears he has lost all his money owing to the de- feat of his favorite horse, Forest King, because the horse was drugged by the welcher's paid tool in revenge and of- fers to give him all her money. Cecil is greatly touched by the, child's kind ness. but refuses her aid, accepting In lieu thereof little enamel sweetmeat box, which be says he will keep in memory of her. The scene then changes to Algiers, where Ccci' catl Rake are humble soldiers urd + CT flag, the flag of France.

 ! Tho last crown to the chorus of ap- plause and insult to the circle of ap- plauders was launched with all the piduance of inimitable canteen slang and camp assurance from speaker who had perched astride broken fragment of wall, with her barrel of wine set up on end on the stones in front of her and her six soldiers, her big babies, as she was given mater nally to calling them, lounging at their ease on the arid, dusty turf below. She < was very pretty, audzelously pretty, though her skin was burned to a bright sunny brown and her hair was cut as short as boys, and her face had not one regular feature in 1t. But then-regularity who wanted it? Who would have thought the most pure, classic type change for the better, with those dark, dancing, challenging eyes, with that arch, brilliant, kitten like face and those scarlet lips like a bud of camellfa that were never so handsome as when cigarette was be- . tween them, or. sooth to say, not sell dom . pipe itself?
 She was pretty, she was insolent, she was intolerably coquettish, she was mischIevous as . marmoset, she would swcar if need be like zouaye, she could fire galloping, she could toss off her brandy or her vermuth like q trooper, she would on occasion clinch her little brown hand and deal a blow that the recipient would not coYet twice, she was a child of Paris and had all its wickedness at her fingers. she would sing you odd songs till you were suffocated with laughter, and she would dance the cancan at the Salle de Mars with the biggest giant of Il culras- sier there. And yet, with all that, she was not wholly unsexed, with all that she had the delicious fragrance of youth and had not left a certain femi- nine grace behind her. though she wore A c 0hAlOkAA anu Adh bGGAA born In a barracIl and meant to die in q battle. 1t was the blending of the two that made her piquant. made her no toriety in her own way, known at pleasure and equally in the army of Africa as Cigarette and "L'Amie du Drapeau" 0he Friend of the Flag.

 1t is Ryland w. Phillips, the artisa photographer, who claims the honor of having first discovered this nexv beauty. Last October he arranged to have her come to his studio and pose for several pictures, which were later placed on exhibition at the Photographed society and created' wide discussion. In speaking of MiBx| sNesbit, MT. Phillips said:
 Miss Nesbit has mobile face y&t she can change her personality in looks, gesture and effect quicker than anyone else T have ever seen. Slie can change her whole expre ssion in~| stantly from sorrow to Rlndneas< every feature adding to the total transformation. Miss Nesbit is M great beauty. She has splendidly developed head and face showing unusual character. About her fort~s head there are lines of exceptional beauty denoting great intellectual power"
 Besides her beauty, Miss Nesbit fl endowed with gift of dramatic tai~E ent and emotional capacity sufficient to warrant her in hoping to attain success on the stage, Tor which sh2' is now preparing herself.

 Cigarette launched choice missile of barrack slang at an array of meta phors which their propounder thought stupendous in their brilliancy.

 Cigarette blew contemptuous puff of smoke.
 "There was never one yet that did not growll If they don't use their tusks. they sit and sulk. An English man is always boxing or grumbling. The two make up his life"
 Which view she had derived from profound study of various vaudevilles, and, having delivered it, she sprang down from her wall, strapped on her little barrel, nodded to her big babies, where they lounged full leagth in the shadow of the stone wall, and left them to resume their game at boo while she started on her way singing.

Sunday after ten days trip, 1 found
everybody well and prepared for winter,
especially the sheep men. l was told
that they are in better shape to with
stand the winter than ever before. They
have built immense sheds to keep their
stock in and feed them during the win
ter. There are lots Of sheep down that
way and you may know it takes great
many sheds to house the animals and
lots of feed to keep them on. I found
everybody prosperous with plenty of
money for all the needs and comforts of
life. On the whole that country is pros
pering as it has never done before and
indications arc that that they will con-
tinue to prosper for awhile.

A. J. Pitner-I spent week in Seattle
and the surrounding country and on re-
turning home could not help but note
the great difference in the two climates.
During my stay there it was foggy and
cold and very disagreeable. There is no
climate like the Yakima climate for me.
l lived 10 years in the willamette valley
and got surfeit Of the coast weather. I
came here three years ago and now like
the climate so well that you could not
drive me out. While at Seattle I met
John w. Duwamish, the ex-treasurer
of King county. He told me that he was
coming to North Yakima at an early
date to make his future home. He is
worth considerable money and is now
we'll up in years. He has lived in that
place 40 years and desires to get to a
place little dryer before his time to
shuttle off He expects to come over
during the winter and will
build fine home here.
