He was. and will remain until he

As for me, I can only say II was
quite out OF my power to decline
any invitation OF bis. From the
first moment when had seen
Andre, he had attracted me out Of
all proportion to his actual over

And although Andre was drawn
to me- against his will, he none the

Often and often he would oaress me
and exclaim: "Oh. but you are
sweet" or How pretty You arc

half laushingly; do you know, I
am really awfully fond Of you" But
never one did he say point blank:

against the very emotions within
him which were urging him on to
definite words such as these. II was
because he. for the first time In his

LONDON. Dec. 3l.--The new year will

such an extent during the last week that

In those districts where the Germans
and Austrians still retain the initiative
the Russians are slowly but surely gain

that the German attacks there have be-

In opposition TO the view that the use
Of heavy artillery In 20 cover such a SUR
