ready won under the big white
plume that nodded above his head

A splendid good fellow" in
every sense of the word. was Hen
ry of Navarre-the most popular
monarch, probably, that ever held
down throne. Though a dweller
among the shades for three cen
turtles, Henry's personality still
lives, as real, as vinsome and as
lovable as when it shone through
his eyes and animated his voice in
the days Of the long ago.
Everybody loved Henry, even his
religious and political enemies His
great good nature. his fellow feel

sensible to be deceived by the shows
of things, or to have his head
turned by any of the excellent
fopperies of the world"
Though of the royal" blood.
Henry was as democratic in his
ways as the humblest man in the
nation. and even when king he was
ever ready to meet the poorest of
his subjects half way. He cared
nothing for ceremony. He saw right
through the proud distinctions that
had been built up between man and
man, and held them at their true
value, which was a very slim one.

rvs reign, blemishes upon his ca
reer prior TO his coronation, but
most of them were put there not
by himself, but by others. Could
he have had his way, he would
have shed no blood, would have
made no widow or orphan. His
wars were all forced upon him by
the logic Of the situation. At heart
he loved peace and good will. and
never did he manifest any Of the
signs of the despot, the tyrant or
the Cutthroat.
AS king, or head administrator
Of his nation, he evinced extraor-
binary ability. He clearly belonged
in the front rank OF statesmen.
Under his rule, France began to
see her first real prosperity. He
put new life into the finances. he
reformed agriculture. he reyolu-
tionized commerce and manufac-
lures.
More than all. he infused into Of
ficialdom the idea that the state
meant the people. and that it was
the bounden duty of offfciaIdom to
run things in the interest Of the
people, and the whole people. When
the villainous Ravaillac ran his
dagger into Henry's heart he struck
down the man who reckoned among
his produest achievements the fact
that he had made it possible for the
poorest Frenchman to have fowl

This Woman Will Bear Watching

y a recent article on friendship
Sarah Bernhard advises wom-
en- to choose men instead of
women for their friends, She says:
For a woman the surest friend
ship is to be found in a man. The
true and only great friendship upon
which a woman can really depend
is the friendship Of man"
To my thinking a greater fallacy
was never uttered than this, and no
more dangerous counsel ever given
to woman.
A man for love, but a woman for
friendship. is the only safe rule for
woman. Between a man and a
woman there may be liking, there
may be congeniality, pleasure IN
each others society, mutual help
fulness, friendship IN its lighter
moods-but between them there can
never exist, without great danger,
the deep-souled intimacy that is
real friendship, that there may be

es Bluntly, II man and woman
are not necessary to each others
happiness. if they are satisfied and
contented when they are apart.
they are not much friends. If they
are miserable apart and can not
live without each others compan-
ionship, then they are more than
friends. 1t is love-or else such a
diluted brand of friendship that it
is nothing.
Barrier.
Another barrier between the
friendship of man and woman is
the outside world, which is apt to
be scandalous, and their own hu-
man connections. No man with a
wife, no woman with a husband,
