Lovers.

Is there a more beautiful relation

and sympathy, the kindly devotion
and happiness, Of two who are lovers
throughout their lifetime! Such love
must endure many tests, and comes
In its fullness only when the dross
has been burned away. 1t requires
the wisdom of two earnest souls whose
lives are inspired by a pure ideal,
those who know that the instinct com
monty called love Is but the prompt.

and seeks the spiritual fellowship Of

1t is taken for granted that the old

liberals and socialists are victorious
1t is believed that a grave situation
will arise. Violent agitation prevails
on both sides. Revolutionary publ
cations called THE Russian Danger"
and THE Republic" have been confis-
Gated. The moral strength of the
government is rendered less effective
by its parliamentary weakness. Most
of the new members are unfamiliar
with the strategical and tactical intri-
cacies of parliamentary maneuvering.
The radicals charge the king with plot
ting to overthrow constitutionalism
and accuse the conservatives with aid
ing and abetting the alleged plot. The
moderate liberals, however, uphold
King Gustaf and the conservatives as
discerning patriots, alive to the dan
ger to European peace and conse-
Quently to the security of Sweden.
The peasants have not the least
doubt that Russia's plans involve the
conquest of Sweden, although evil
dence OF the true nature of these plans
may not be forthcoming now or In the
future IL the national defenses are
properly reinforced. King Gustaf has
received addresses of thanks from all
parts of the country, but Karl Staaff,
the former minister of state, receives
similar tokens of confidence. I'm
loubtedly the majority of the Swedish
people wish a stronger army and navy,
but the compulsory resignation of the
STAFF ministry caused alarm among
many constituencies and the polit-
ical question might outweigh the de-
tense question in the elections.

A trainman tells in newspaper
that on several occasions he had seen
crows carry something from the Soro
forests and place 1t on the rails. One
day he improved his opportunity to
find out what the crows were doing
He found that they placed hazelnuts
on the rails. When the train came
the nuts were crushed. Afterwards
the crows returned and ate up the
kernels. In other words, the wise
birds used the railway trains OF the
kingdom of Denmark as a nut cracker!
