She shook a letter at me.

"Oh, may have some linen--sheets
and towels and tablecloths and such"
she answered. "But as for clothes

up in the air.
He didn't see why she needed any

why didn't she make them do? She

"And l told her before she married

she must have some clothes and some
money to get out among her friends

and she afraid he'll get into mischief
if she doesn't go with him. So she
wants to earn money to look nice, so
he won't be ashamed to be seen with

venetia from Austria. Austria was
held to be the chief enemy of Italy's
independence and unity. Despite
this, however in 1882 Italy joined
Germany and Austria in the Triple
Alliance. This unnatural alignment
was entered chiefly into because
France. Italy's nominal ally, had
blocked her colonial ambitions in
Tunis. Yet the alliance never made
Austria popular with the Italians,
nor did 1t cover the Mediterranean
or the Adriatic. The head of the
head of the Adriatic is a constant
source of the enmity between Italy
and Austria. In Trieste and Fiume,
seaports of Austria, the population
is chiefly Italian. Italy has always
coveted not only these ports but the
we'll. She looks with suspicion upon
the German-Austrian attempts to
dominate the Balkans. Early in the
Italian Turkish War Italy began to
lombard the Albanian coast then
held by Turkey. She was immedi-
ately warned off from Aviona by
Austria. This added fresh vigor to
the ola antipathy, Again the tension
over the cotrol Of the Adriatic was so
acute during the Balkan war that
there war even possibility of hos
tilities between Italy and Austria.
When. therefore, the question of re-
neweing the Triple Alliance came up
in 1913 it was only the great difficult
ty that Germany succeeded in getting
Italy to join 1t, even though it was a
defensive alliance and did not in
clude the Mediterranean. The Ital-
ians look upon securing Trieste and
the control of the Adriatic as the
French look upon reconquering AL
SAGE and Lorraine
Austria stands fair in the path of
this ambition. The memory of for
mer wars and the recognition of pre-
sent conflicting qualities make the
Italian people unwilling to support
Austria. The Italian Governments
decision that is was not bound to help
Austria and Germany because they
were not engaged in defensive war
relieved 1t from entering upon a. war
like policy which would probably
have failed of public support.
Moreover Italy has nothing to
gain by war against the Triple En-
tente. unless it might be part of
Frances North African possessions
The chance of acquiring these that
would hardly be worth exposing a
long coast line to the French and
contrary. a German Austrian victory
would almost certainly work harm
to Italy's hope to control the Adri-

ilttle BOY sat on an old rail fence
And gazed at a dropping limb;
And sinful yearning that was in
Kept steadily urging him.
His little red features were covered
with dirt
And his little brown legs were
scratched;
Where were numerous rents in his lit
tie checked shirt,
And his little blue pants were
patched.
From one little toe the nail had been
torn
And one little heel was sore;
A child apparently more forlorn
I had never beheld before.
At last he stood on the topmost rail
And reached for that dropping
limb;
I almost uttered hopeless wall
felt SO sorry for him.
Hand over hand he pulled it down
The limb with the droop, I mean;
His face was red and his legs were
brown
And the apples were small and
green.

l counted them-there were four;
Then. foolishly, recklessly challenging
fate,
He reached for couple more

And sadly 7 said: Good by"
Alas for what have seen this day,
'Tis sad that the young must die.
''You, have had your way and you've
had your will:
Your bed will be dark and deep:
A week from now. upon yonder hill
You will lie in a dreamless sleep"

CHANGED
To pause near that fateful tree:
With sad remembra I turned and
glanced
A thrill was in store for me.
For there on the old rail fence he sat.
Eating with calm delight
And, having finished he filled his hat
And then sauntered out of sight.
