To n of Gloria's training and posi-

perilous than the police.
Suddenly she stared and pointed out
Of the window at two forlorn, ragged
figures strolling up the drive as If
they had wandered from the slums
and were lost. They were the waiter,
Casimir, and his little boy, Stas, whom
Gloria had befriended at the night
court. She had forgotten them ana
now they arrived ut the most inoppor-
tune moment. Casimir had Gloria's
card In his hand. He saw the report
ers and grew uneasy. He pushed
through and rang the doorbell. Gloria
insisted on their admission and greet
ed them warmly.
Pierpont stared ut the shabby wait
er in disgust. He looked at his watch.
He started to go. Gloria nabbed him.
She told him that she had promised
the waiter a job. Pierpont said he had
no jobs for walters. Then he ordered
Gloria to lunch with him at the Bank
ers' club.
"The very idea," she exclaimed. "Get
Casimir a job there"
I'm those clothes?" Pierpont ex-
claimed.
BUY him a new OUTFIT was Gloria's
solution.
Pierpont was enraged, but she had
her way as usual, and he metioned
the waiter to come with him. Casimir
kissed Gloria's hand. The boy tried
to follow him and chung to him In ter

just saying to his daughter Gloria.
She had declined to be frightened by
his scowl and had almost won him to
a smile across his breakfast coffee cup

Last Friday James w. Gerard. for
mer American ambassador to Berlin,
was reported in an interview in e st.
Paul paper to have said: me
Gweeds certainly have no reason TO
be pro-German, for in 1856 Germany
took away Schleswig- Holstein. from
Sweden and Denmark
In these few remarks, there r
several incorrect statements. In h
first place, Schleswig-Holstein
was a part of Sweden. Second, n
war which led to forcible ceding of
former Danish territory. tool place
in 1864, and, third. no Germany ex-
listed until 1871. The war to which
the ex-ambassador referred, was
against Denmark, while he was or
1856 was fought between those two,
powers which had been allies only
two years before, namely, Prussia and
Austria.
Mr.. Gerard's statement reminds one
of a little incident which took place
in Copenhagen a few years ago when
a part of the American battle fleet
visited Copenhagen. Rear Admiral
Badger who was in command or the
squadron was feted by the Danish
minister of navy and other high gov
eminent officials, and when the time
came, the admiral arose to toast the
German navy. The German navy
In Denmark's capital! A few days
later, the rear admiral toasted the
Danish navy while a guest Of the
Swedish government officials IN Stock-
holm!
The point Of these little stories Is
thai even unusually well-tnformed
Americans have peculiar conceptions
of historical and other conditions III
the Scandinavian countries, and the
present efforts to stop food export TO
Scandinavia from this country may, IN
part at least, be due to official ignor-
ance of the situation.
"a Friendly Act of Denmark"
In this connection it is worth re-
calling an editorial article, printed in
"Harper's Weekly May 20, 1864, be-
cause the majority of people ave for
gotten the incident referred to here.
At the time the article was written,
the North was fighting the South IN
this country, and Denmark waged a
single-handed fight against Prussia
and Austria. The editorial reads, as
follows:
During the absorbing interest in
the domestic events of the last two
or three weeks, q sign of friendly re-
gard from Denmark to this country
may have been overlooked. Strug-
S1llS n " W.
istence, and attacked by Austria and
Prussia because of her declared policy
Of a free constitutional government,
the ancient and valiant little Den
mark, at the request of our govern
ment, has permitted the Hamburg
and Bremen steamers plying to New
York to pass free of seizure by her
cruisers, although they are the ships
and the ports of an enemy. This is a
most unusual act of amity, n is
done by Denmark. as her government
expressly states, from her friendly
feeling for this country. Nor is II
likely to be soon forgotten"
The article reviews the causes
which led to the Dano-Prussian wal
and says in conclusions:
"Doubly cordial, therefore, is the
grasp of the hand of friendship which
Denmark stretches to us out Of hel
cloud of war. Her fate Is almost
sure. The impending extinction OF
that old kingdom a hardly be avert.

meanwhile. the people of h Uni
ted States will remember, with a
gratitude which may one day be serv-
iceable, an act so friendly in the midst
of their great struggle"
Now, in 1917, with war clouds hang
ing low over the northern countries,
it may be pertinent to SAX:
viii the people Of the United
States remember"
Propaganda Hostile to the North.
Time and again it has been point
ed u in these articles that the Amer
lean export embargo directed against
Scandinavia is not fair, in the literal
sense Of that word.
Ignorance Of Scandinavian condi-
lions may, in q general way, be plead
ed as a mitigatory circumstance, and
the torrents Of ~unfrtendly comment
which have been poured forth in GER
tain parts of the American press, de-
serve more than passing notice.
An otherwise unknown writer, who
himself seems to be of Scandinavian
descent, John Eiesland, in Morgan
town, Va, on August 2, wrote in the
New YorkTimes that certain members
Of the Norwegian commission recently
sent to Washington. were pro-Ger-
mans Among the mon with pro-Ger-
man sympathies he mentioned the
head Of the mission, DR.. Fridtjof Mem
sen.
tisnoorintve' ,roneeterdeC VasrtNaP
The statement publicly made by this
man was swiftly and effectively refut-
ed by authoritative and official dec
larations which were called forth
more by the fact that the statement
was malicious than by reason of the
incorrectness Of the premises in Mr..
Eiseland's article. a..
William Fairweather also at about
the same time contributed an article
to several New York papers in which
he questioned the good faith of the
their agreements with the allies to the
effect that certain articles were to be
re-exported to Germany in very re-
stricted quantity. The writer's story
is based on one single and insignificant
incident which he said he witnessed
in Copenhagen where he had seen
some dried fruit loaded aboard a
German steamer.

F.. Cunliffe-Owen has written long
articles in the New York Sun during
| July and August in an effort to prove
hat the Scandinavian neutrals have
violated certain pledges given to the
allies. His indictment rests, partly.

ments in favor Of the export embargo,
