familiar with the effects Of the abrupt ees

There are probably several reasons for this.
one is that neither the public nor the medical
profession has yet learned to regard the use OF
tobacco, even in excess, as capable of doing
serious harm to the smoker Certainly the
habit Is not generally looked upon as compar-
able to alcoholism in this respect.
Another reason is that it is rare for devotee
OF tobacco to foreswear it entirely, even though
he knows that It is doing him harm. II is true
that he may cut down his customary allowance

lions where the habit is suddenly stopped.

A former governess of the

When the visitor reached the door

Luxembourg she was faced by two
stern sentries, who presented
their bayonets at her. An Of

told her she could not enter the
palace without explaining her bust

Whatever the rights or wronR1

tim of Moloch.
According to the last reports the
Grand Duchess has become a phys
ical wreck from the hopeless
struggle and the sight Of the mig
cry around her. She has expressed
her intention of abdicating her
throne and retiring to a convent TO
find relief from her sorrows. She
wishes to leave her throne to a
younger sister, who, being more OF
a child than herself, has not been
so much affected by the tragedy
that has overtaken Luxembourg.
This little neutral state, only sSS
square miles in area, had the mis-
fortune to lie on the direct path
from Berlin to Paris when tho war
broke out. Three railway lines
from the principal North German
centres Of population come together
in the little town Of Luxembourg.
which, situated in a mountainous
country itself, commands the fiat
and comparatively unprotected area
of Northern France.
Two hundred thousand German
Soldiers were rushed through Lux
emburg as fast as they could be
hurled. The young Grand Duchess
bravely stationed herself in the
centre of the main road leading
into Luxembourg and declared that
they had no right to pass. German
officers seized her horses and led
her out of the way.
Considerable mystery has been
maintained concerning conditions
in Luxembourg, for it is an impor-
tant strategic centre and has been
the Kaiser's headquarters for a
time. Some interesting news OF

THE Grand Duchess Marie
Adelaide of Luxembourg is
one OF the most pathetic
figures in the world.
This pretty young girl barely
twenty-one years old, was adored

forced to live upon charity.
For over a year the little Grand
Duchess has striven brayely to
assert her rights and that OF her
people, in face Of the overwhelm-
ing power of the German Empire,
but the struggle is naturally
hopeless one. Luxembourg is re-
ported to be occupied by 100000
German soldiers. more than the
entire population of the country.

Grand Duchess has been Informed
