the King Of Austria and tho kaiser.
Why, right now. that Germany is his
store. and that the poor Germans nebich
is just salespeople; and he figures that
IL he wants to close out his stock and
fixtures at a sacrifice and at the same
time work his salespeople to death,
what is that their business, y'under-
stand"
We'll. that's the way the car hg-
ured," Morris commented. For, Nav
russ, the kaiser has got an idee years
already he was running Husband on
the open-shop principle, and before
he woke up to the fact that the people
he had been treating right straight
along as non-union labor was really
the majority stockholders. y'under-
stand, they had changed tho combina-
ton of the safe. on him and notified the
bank that on and after said date all
checks would be signed by Jacob M.
Kerensky as receiver"
You would think a felles like the
car would learn something by what
happened to this here Mellen OF the

who was good to my SON or For
the American lady who was good to my
fatherless grandchild.'
One evening Miss Crawford was
aroused from her reading by the sound
Of music and cheering. An excited
servant came running to her, eXciaim-
ing: IT'S for you. It's for you"
"Nonsense,' replied Miss Crawford.
But there they were. townspeople
headed by the mayor, the council and
the band.
q don't understand" gasped the
American woman.
But OF course there was a speech in
which all was explained. The city
of Blgnaia wished TO show its graft
tude to the American lady who had
demonstrated her love for Italy in so
generous and so kindly way. The
highest honor which was theirs to be-
stow they offered her-1talian citizen
ship.
1t may be well to note here that the
Italian psychology is sensitive one.
Offense is quickly taken when Char
ity' as charity is offered in the os-
tentatious way so often common to
phila nthropists. 1t was Miss Craw-
ford's modest and self-eliminating way
of helping as much as her material
ai1 which touched these responsive
Italians.
But the mayor had spoken, and when
he had concluded the band struck up
a new hymn and the citizens began to
sing. 1t was a hymn composed in honor
of Miss Crawford. Overcome BY this
demonstration of Bagnaia's good will,
Miss Crawford naturally had to make
a speech of thanks.
The quiet charity of the New York
woman who saw wars effect upon the
life of the little town reached other
avenues There is the Civil Hospital
where she has installed modern i'm
provements. running water and other
conveniences in the two departments
of men and women. Here there is a
ward which is to be known as the Sala
Elizabeth. and which will always be
endowed in memory of Miss Crawford
parents. A marble tablet has been
placed in the hospital concentrating
the American woman's generosity.
Miss Crawford's gifts to the town,
aside from her personal ones, covered
three fields. That is why the illuminate
ed citizenship scroll bears the sigma
lures of the charity organization, the
City Hospital and the Soldiers Aid
Society, following the names Of the
mayor and the town priest.
Miss Crawford's departure from Bag.
naia was in the nature of a local
demonstration. When she approached
the station with the idea OF going
quietly away. she saw great crowds OF
people. Once more she demanded what
had happened. But this time 1t was
too evident. The streets were color
full with banners. the American flag
found somewhere. intermingled with
the tricolor. The band was playing
most unheard-of compliment, the
Royal March," Then it changed to ..rhe
Star Spangled Banner" and 1000 PEG.

All the babies from the orphanara. In
gala array, were at the station, and one
of them approached Miss Crawford

Abe retorted. with a relation by mar

could you expect from a Schlemiel like
that. So instead of learning anything

a relative of the kaiser?"
Sophia is the name of the one big
town in Bulgaria" Morris replied.
That's a name for a big town
Sophia" Abe remarked. why don't
they call it Lillian Russell and be done
with it?"
They could call it Williamsburg

Morris said.

A Matter of imagination.

ssTMAGISE you'll win and you will
win. Germanys will to conquer
is what has enabled her to withstand
a world of enemies. But Germany is
now losing her will to conquer. She's
beginning to imagine she will lose.
Lose. then. she will. Everything is a
matter of imagination more or less. Re

and the consumptive.'

spending to toast connected with his
department.
feeling tagged from the excessive heat
of a trying summer, consulted physi-
clan. The physician questioned him,
sounded his lungs. and then said,
gravely:
81 will write you tomorrow
THE next day the bank clerk received
letter telling him that his right lung
was gone and his heart seriously de-
ranged, and advising him to lose no time
in putting his affairs in order.
of course, the doctor wrote. you
may live for weeks, but you would do
well to leave nothing of Importance I'M
settled.
Naturally the young bank clerk was
very much depressed by this sad letter.
He did not. Of course, go to work that
morning. and before noon he was hay
ing trouble with his respiration. while
severe pains shot rapidly through his
heart He did not get up all day. and
on toward midnight he had sinking
spell that caused his people to send
post-haste for the doctor.

story is about. The party is merely
the open door through which ChekhoV
