the sounds of his domestic upheaval not quite
whether he provoked or amused. At moments by
her pluck she had excited his admiration at others she
had seemed little less worthy of consideration than
a spoiled child; but her present role amused him beyond
expression. Whoever she was whatever her mission in
life she was the most remarkable young female person
in his experience. Whoo 1t didn't matter in the least,
of course; but he found himself somewhat chagrined
that his memory had played him such trick. Young
girls especially the impudent, sefsatsfed kind that
one met in America had always filled Markham with
vague alarm. He didn't understand them in the least
nor did they understand him. and he had managed with
discretion to confne his attentions to of

FRENCH SOCIALIST
 WANTS EMPEROR

Paris, Sept. IA wonder has happened -a French socialist has just told "nout autres Francais" in full earnest that we ought to throw over the republic and elect a king.
 The socialist, it is true, is merely M. Mar eel Sembat, who is man of most bri liant intelligence, and who is, therefore, Ike NJ. Bernard Shaw in England, never taken se- riously by the real politicians of this coun- try, and his book will, it is supposed, be considered merely new whim of his ever active brain At the same time it cannot be overlooked that Marcel Sembat IS one of hte leaders of the great party, and his book contains a great many most serious thoughts and truths. He Is full of genuine despair at the weaknesses of his nation and probably most of al because we, his coun- trymen, are as hopelessly blind as ever to our faults and firmly convinced that we are the champions among all nations
 Marcel Sembat, who represents the Eighteenth arrondissement of Paris in the chamber, calls his book "Faites un roie, sincn faites la pain," and here is an excerpt from 1t:

4 COMMON PROBLEM
THAT CALLS FOR
GOOD WORK

Dear Miss Grey: 1 am 10
and married one year to q
man ten years my senior.
1 was engaged to him for
two years. i was madly in
love and thought of nothing
else; but since marrying L
have at different times met
men whom l like better.
Now, after l have had my
wish, for 1 was anxious to
get married, I have a longing
for single life and the free
dom 1t gives.
Although falling in love
with other men, 1 have al
ways remained true. / asked
my husband to give me a d.
vorce and told him how
things are. He seems will
ing because he thinks he
would never trust me il L
feel that way; but he loves
me and is very good to me.
The only trouble is I don't
love him as 1 thought did,
and cannot make him the
wife he justly deserves.
He is away at present, and
writes he doesn't think he
will come back until 1 am
sure of myself. 1 don't think
I'll change my mind, Miss
Grey. The real truth is
someone else has come into
my life, and IL 1 lived with
my husband I don't think 1
could continue to be true to
him.
Kindly tell me il you think
I am doing right i'm giving
up my husband for my
whims. i think marriage is
a sacred thing, but no one
can hold it as such without
IF, love. Please answer.
