Let us be thankful we Americans
have no king. Look at poor Bull
garia! The Austrian prince she has
for ruler has done for that country
Just what the prophet Samuel told the
Hebrews a king would do for them.
He must make good" as king, and
that means usually to build up his
state and himself at the expense OF
some neighbor. Reports say he IS as
coldly ambitious as William OF
Germany; he is able. and his ability
admired by his people, but he is not
loved. He has himself declared that
Robert College, established by Con-
grationalists at Constantinople, has
done great things for Bulgaria.; but
its leaders and instructors never
taught such principles as he is follow
ing in statecraft. The training that
the earlier Bulgarian students got
awakened the love of liberty which
resulted in throwing off the Turkish
yoke. Russia never desired she
should become an independent state,
bat hoped to annex her and through
her reach Constantinople, the goal at
which Russia has aimed for three hun
dred years. But the spread OF modern
ideas of liberty has run away with
Russian plans, and probably she will
never secure the three Balkan states;
if they could only federate! But they
will not; each in turn, when 1t got its
independence from the Turk, must
have a prince for ruler; the bordering
European nations demanded it; and
the natural result in king-craft has
followed. One of the fruitful sources
of trouble is that the different peo-
pies or races are not confined each to
its own country; but all overlap the
borders, and have for a long time;
and Bulgarians are in Macedonia, now
under Greek rule, and some in Serbia,
and Greeks and SerbianS are in like
manner settled within Bulgarian
bounds and mixed with each other.
And with all this there are the separ-
ate organizations of the Greek and
Catholic churches, each demanding all
control, and not willing to live side by
side, and YOU have a tangle unSurpas-
sed anywhere else in the world, In

The OBSERVATORY
BULcA RIA

We may now expect more Bulgar-
ian horrors, which added to those the
Turks are supplying in the crushing
of the whole Armenian race is enough
to make the whole head sick and the
whole heart faint" We have read
horrible stories in ancient histories
we are ourselves living in another age
of them. Belgium, Armenia and next
the Balkans; and determined word
from William of Germany could have
stopped them and could stop them
now! Today several German writers
are wondering why the rest of the
world has no sympathy for them!

Tribune while travelling in China for his paper has had
his views materially changed concerning the effect of
protective tariff on eggs Mr. Davis writes Several times
last wear when travelling through the middle western
United States fell in with farmers who greatly e
cited over the importation of Chinese eggs. They de-
claimed vehemently against the reduction of the tariff on
eggs which permitted such mporations and declared that
was affecting their incomes and making their chicken
industry Improbable Knowing the price for eggs in nv
own home such talk used to make smile, for ddnt
see where the importation of Chinese eggs had had the
slightest effect on the American market
"On the trip through Chill province, which have Just
ended had occasion frequently to buy eggs from
the farmers and villagers along the road Eggs are
convenient and cheap article of food such expeditions
cash apiece At the average of exchange for
cash we found in China, American dollar is worth
1000 cash. So when you to turn American dollar
into cash China eight cash per egg you buy S5 eggs
The retail price in the eastern part of the United States
with which happen to be familiar last year. was approx
mately three per egg The retail price in the part
of China have just visited is eighseventieths cent
per egg One egg at home is worth 265a eggs in this
province Does this of calculation give you any kind
of an idea to how the Chinese liver"
This explains why so much American capital is gonp
abroad to engage in the evaporaed egg industry 1t also
explains the price of eggs the Pacific Coast during
the past year and half AT the quoted by Mr. Davis
that bon vvan Senator Ollie James, could invite the en-
tire Democratic representation of both houses of
to omelee breakfast by purchasing dollars worth
of Chinese eggs and then have enough left for the
president and his cabinet And Chinese eggs are fit diet

Pulling the Surgeons

A Partisan journal tells of a young
Partisan who had long worn a mon
ocle in his left eye, and who had con-
tinued the habit as an officer. He had
been wounded, was cured, and had
asked to be returned to the front.
When he went to be examined he con-
cealed the monocle, thinking he might
be charged with myopia in one eye.
When the chief surgeon examined him
he said sharply: 'Whistlel"
The soldier whistled like a black
bird
That's curious" said the surgeon.
and, calling young assistant. he said
again to the soldier. "Whistlel" He
whistled again. That's curious" said
the young assistant.
Another SURGEON entered. and the
patient was called upon for the third
time to whistle.
All" said the surgeon. that's very
curious"
But" expostulated the soldier. q
don't scc why there is so much OF this.
I'm not to serve as a locomotive"
1T is all right" said the chief sur
geon. You may return to the front.
When the soldier arrived at his re-
giment, he gave to the regimental
surgeon the note that had been given
him by the examiner. This surgeon
said n his ;urn, "WiiI you please

curious" said the surgeon.
1t seems that when a man wears a
monocle it gives to his face the ap-
pearance of facial paralysis. The

tic cannot whistle
