Only Vely Bey remained silent. He
did not stir or speak. He stared, mo-
tionless, at the lake.
From it's mirror rose one last, ter
rible wall. Then there was utter ST.
lence, more terrible still.
Sulaiman fell to the floor, sobbing.
Mukhtar grOveled at the door. Ali
Pasha said with his grave, kindly
smile: "NOw the battlefield will not
seem SO terrible to you as it did Il few
hours ago. Depart with all speed.
When you return, you shall find new
haremS here
He unlocked the door and diSap-
peared. Sulaiman and Mukhtar sent
fearful curses after him, but Vely Bey
remained silent and immobile, looking
down at the water. He stood there
while the dusk came and passed, while
the night came on and grew black.
Blacker than the night were the
thoughts that he bent upon his father.
Ali Pasha, in his own chamber,
thought also He thought of a prophecy
made for him many years before by a
holy man: Chime own child shall one
day Stay thee
$50 be it," said the Lion of Janina,
and set his foot undaunted toward that
future, which was to see the destruc-
ton of the fairy city, and to cost the
heads of his sons and himself.

Our Purposes

The purposes of the-United States in this war are known to the whole world, to every people to whom the truth has been per mitted to come We seek no ma terial advantage of any kind. We believe that the intolerable wrongs done in this war by the furious and brutal power of the Imperial German Government ought to be repaired but not at the expense of the sovereignty of any people-rather a vindicatio of the sovereignty both of those that are weak and those that are strong.
 Peace must be based upon jus lice and fairness and the com mon rights of Mankind. From President Wilson's Reply to the Pope
