KING PRAISES U. S.
ALBERT LAUDs JUSTICE OF
COUNTRY IN NOTE TO WILSON,.
Monarch Sees America Grieving Over
Distress of 5elaians Under Ger
man Rule.

Washington, June 20.-The personal
letter TO President Wilson from King
Albert, delivered by Baron Moncheur,
head of the Belgian mission to this
country, was made public by the state
department and is as follows:
II commend to your excelleny's kind
ly reception the mission which bears
this letter. This mission will express
to the president the feelings of under
standing and enthusiastic admiration
with which my government and people
have receiy the decision reached by
him in his wisdom. The mission will
also tell you how greatly the impor-
tant and glorious role enacted by the
United States has confirmed the conf
dence which the Belgian nation has all
ways had IA free Americas spirit OF
justice.
1.-The great American nation was par
ticularly moved by the unwarranted
and violent attacks made upon Bel
GUM. 1t has sorrowed over the dis
tress of my subjects subjected TO the
yoke of the enemy. 1t has succored
them with Incompatible generosity.
am happy to have an opportunity again
to express to your excellency the graft
tude which my country owes you and
the firm hope entertained by Belgium
that on the day of reparation, toward
which America will contribute so boun-
tifully, full and entire justice will be
rendered to my country.
"My government has chosen TO ex-
press its sentiments to your excellency
through two distinguished men, whose
services will command credence for
what they have to say-Baron Mon
cheur, who for eight years was my rep
resentative at Washington. and Lieu
tenant General Leclercq, who has
earned high appreciation during a long
military career.
81 venture to hope, Mr.. President,
that you will accord full faith and Gre
dence to everything that they say, es-
pecially when they assure you of the
hopes / entertain for the happiness
and prosperity of the United States of
American and of my faithful and very
sincere friendship.
ALBERT"

"THE WOMAN YOU ARE TO Be"
1t All Depends, Says Writer, Upon
What You Put Into Your Head
as Days of GirIhood Pass.

There comes a time iii a girls lifs
when she passes from childhood into
the land of dreams and flowers, and
the question that now arises has to
do with the woman that she will be for
the rest of her life. Is she going to
furnish the nice, clean recesses of her
brain with things that really count, or
is she going to toss an indiscriminate
mass of jumbled nonsense into her
heart?
She has it within herself to make
her brain a power, to teach it to rea-
son, to cram it with intelligence, and
TO force herself as a personality to re-
spond, says the Pittsburgh Dispatch.
There is still another thing that she
may choose to do-she may decide to
leave it entirely empty. In that case,
which is the saddest of all, her eyes
will count for nothing, even though
they be beautiful, for they will be ex-
pressionless: her lips that, closed are
so perfect in contour, when opened
will frame those tawdry nothings so
pitifully evident of the empty brain
behind them. Old age viii have moth
ing of interest in its wake, for the
wrinkles and lines that speak for
character will be absent, and the face,
pleasing in youth because of its fresh
beauty, in old age will become moth
ing but a hideous mask.
Think well what you will put intH
your head. for YOU will purchase from
Life itself at high price.

Sure" said the man, land, re-
member, I'm your friend" So Elsie
accepted.
That night she wrote a post
card to her mother: Have a good
position. Am all right. Please
don't worry about me-" She gave
no address. She did not want them
to know her whereabouts yet.
The place where Elsie worked
was hot and ill-ventilated. She.
stood for long hours upon her feet
often doing nothing-but 1t
brought her in contact with other
girls, and, in her loneliness, this
meant everything. She found out.
however. that most Of the girls
she met lived with their families,
to whom they paid q nominal board.
or those few who lived indspend-
emily Elsie soon realized that most
were different from herself-sep-
arated by a wall Of experience
which she did not care to psus-
trate.
There was one girl, who, Ike
Elsie, had broken with her home.
This girl had been born and
brought up In the city. She had
III treatment to contend with at
home. After they grew to be
friends and Elsie had heard this
girls story, she found It hard to
answer in her turn the question,

Minnie Mason-the new friend
and Elsie moved into a room that
held two cots, a bureau, q wash
stand and one chair. Minnie under
stood where to look and they paid
for this room SO. II was IN a dirty,
noisy neighborhood. but Elsie had
by this time spent everything ex-
cept the precious paper-wrapped
sum that hung around her neck In
a bag. Friendship and economy
combined were q real BONANZA to
both of them.
Elsie, however. had a country
appetite. The amount she had to
spend on. meals would not buy
either the kind or quality she was
accustomed to. She was always
hungry. There was not cent left
over at the end Of the week. Extra
car fares, moving pictures or any
other form Of amusement were out
OF the question. The novelty Of the
new life began to wear OF for both
Of them at about the same time.
To Minnie, the freedom from
contention and III treatment
seemed at first all sufficient. To
Elsie the excitement of being at

II, from day to day. not be-
- cause she did not think Of
them often. but because she wanted
to be able TO say that she had
found a good position and was do
ing well. Her friends in the big
store still failed to materialize and
she was forced into a search for
work without advice or expert
ence.
In her quest Of the large stores
she found that she would be COM
PEELED by any OF them to wear
a black dress. As she did not have
one she laid out some of her prec-
ious dollars in buying the cheapest
posslble-but she could not find
the position for which the dress
had been bought.
In her search for work she some
times met with q kind Of famil-
iarity which froLe her blood. One
such man, after talking with her
awhile, made her leave her name
and address. promising to write
her the next week. Elsie did not
really expect any position through
this, and was SO repelled by the
man she felt tempted to give a
wrong address. but forbore on that
slim chance OF a living.
Then she began going in where
ever she saw the sign. Girl Want.
ed" These places were small
manufactures. The position was
usually that Of errand girl. In none
of them could she make as much
as IS q week.
She now saved money by buy
ing food and eating II in her room.
She also discovered a place where
she could get q room cheaper. On
the day that she was moving she
. received, to her surprise, a notice
to call at the store where the man
had taken her name and address.
She hurried up there full of graf
itude and pleasure. The same man
offered her a position in the base
ment Of the store at 81 week.
She was to report for duty next
morning. Elsie had carefully
written down Just what she
thought each necessity would cost
her. She believed she could begin
on 81.

The water mark" on paper Is Of
very early origin. MSS. OF the thir-
tesnth century having water marks.
They were used for the same rsa-
son as "mason'g" marks on stone.
They indicated the makers name
