Soldiers at the Front the Russojapanese and Balkan Wars
Will Study Economic Conditions and Problems in This

like Queen Eleonore's coming to him
direct from the hospitals, from cots of
agony, with the very breath of death
ABOUT her garments. For weeks after
she returned to Sofia from nursing in
Adrianople the king refused to see
her. So profound is Ferdinand's dis
IKE for and fear Of sickness that he
puts his family and entire household
INTO quarantine for the slightest In
disposition. The absurdity of some Of
the kings guarantees has made the
quarantine idea a joke among the
courtiers at the palace 1t has been
whispered that, while it Is true that
Ferdinand breads sickness, he has Or
dered some Of the guarantees as a
method-o taking a recess from family
disputes.
The husband Of Europe's royal
nurse controlled his adherence OF
his wife ministrations for some time
during the Balkan war, but the Fer
dinand patience finally ended. In adj
dition to her nursing and Red Cross
direction, Eleonore had supervised the
management of the hospital depart
ment. inspected supplies as they went
to the front, and organized relief for
the families of soldiers who were
killed or disabled.
At last Ferdinand prohibited her do
ing any more nursing or superintend-
ing, and gave orders that none Of the
latest collection of clothing and other
equipment which she had gathered for
sick soldiers should be sent to the
field. Goods which had been contrib
uted by civilian patriots were sold at
auction, and much Of the clothing
went to the secondhand stores. 1t Is
stated that the queen wept when the
messenger sent by the Balkan relief
committee told her the news.
She has been characterized as "one
Of the most admirable women In Eu-
rope" She is a plain woman, with SIM
pie tastes, not fond of pomp. She likes
to do straightforward work in a
straightforward way. She has always
been intent on expending her energies
accomplishing good for her husbands
subjects. She is a competent execu-
tive. If she were an American she
might be a w. c. T. U. leader, or a
settlement organizer and worker, or
the head Of a great hospital.
And the mate Of this woman of the
simple virtues has been described as a
monarch Of the middle ages. Ferdi-
nand is clever, crafty, cruel, con-
scienceless, conceited, selfish, migrate
full, somewhat effeminate in his hab-
it's, able and INSCRIPTIONS as politi-
cal manipulation, successful as a ruler.
1t has been written: Ferdinand Of
Bulgaria has probably broken more
oaths and promises than any one else

monial and brilliance of kingship; he
is grandiose and overbearing; the
sound of Your Majesty" is grateful
to his ear.

last great wars-the Russo-Japanese
and the Balkan conflicts.
An intensely practical woman, the
queen is now planning to come TO this
country for two most practical pur-
poses. She wishes to study American
methods of handling economic and So
cial problems, and to do what Is pos
sible to Offset prejudices which may
exist in the American mind against
Bulgaria because Of the stories Of cru,
elites practised during the Balkan
war by the victory-fushed Bulgars.
Bulgaria is now in a process Of re-
construction; important adjustments
are necessary in many directions be-
cause of the changes wrought by the
war. Further, tens Of thousands of
destitute Bulgarians have swept into
their native land from the other Bal
kan states, in which they refuse to
live, and these people must be alb
Borbed by the everyday life of the
nation. BY the study Of what Amer
lea has done, both in handling the
hordes Of the cities and in pioneering
on the frontiers Of the West, Eleonore
hopes to get lessons for Bulgarian
use.
Details of the trip are being now
arranged at Sofia. 1t Is likely that
the queen will have a considerable
suite with her and will be attended by
some Of the younger veterans Of the
war as aids-de-camp.
Queen Eleonore, who Is now fifty.
tour, won her first widespread fame as
a nurse in the war Of Russia against
Japan. She was decorated on the field
for her services with General Kuro-
patkin's division Of the Russian army.
At that time she was an obscure Ger
man princess, not then being married.
Che went to the front in charge of a
Red Cross train equipped by the Grand
Duchess Vladimir of Russia, and on
the crimsoned plains Of Manchuria
worked with splint and bandage. She
was under fire several times, and
proved herself to be courageous, eff
cient as an executive, and to have an
64CSllGub AuONlSOSS VI uul SiuS.
In the Balkan war she again gained
the laurel Having married Ferdinand
In 1908, when she was forty-eight and
he forty-seven, she took an active part
In caring for the wounded soldiers Of
her husbands army.
Eleonore has won her public repu-
tation, and considerable one it is, al
most wholly through her activities as
a nurse and director Of Red Cross
movements. Ferdinand detests nurses,
fears fever, loathes the smell of an
aesthetics and antiseptics, and has an
aversion for a hospital equaling that
for Turk.
Ferdinand, something Of an aes-
thete, loves flowers, is possessed by a
passion for their perfume. He con-
stantly has masses of blooms in his
rooms, on his dining table. He likes
to run his long, white hands through
their petals, inhaling the fragrance.
So famous is Ferdinand's flower fond
ness that biographers always describe
those long, white hands caressing the
blossoms, whatever else they fail to
portray.

"That as Statewide prohibit
ton destroys regulation Of the
sale and handling of liquor, the
handling of that business, or the
sale of liquor, passes from the
hands of responsible persons into
the hands of irresponsible per-

result that the vilest kind of
liquor and liquor substitutes are
sold to people illegally, resulting
in increased crime, social disorder
and corruption; that Use of habit

improvement in such States, there
is indicated a strong probability
