wants were left behind.
We found them there, still wearing
the palace uniform of imperial blue
with imposing silver buttons. They
seemed to me a melancholy lot, but
doubtless more sinned against than
SHINING. Who could learn light-heart-
edness In a madhouse?
Royal Servants HorriAed.
I cannot pretend that we made
much of a hit with them; in fact /
fear that to the last they regarded
US with solemn disfavor. They
had been used always to waiting
upon grand dukes and the barons
and that sort of creature. that
waited upon czars. and to see this
herd of common slobs tramping
through those sacred halls was a
little too much. They were most
ly old times and thoroughly drilled
to the old regime and not keen for
any innovations-least of all for
American persons in sack suits.
There were two of US that got in
bad the first turn of the box with
some of these worthy but stilted
guardians of vanished dignity and
we never got right again so long
as we were there. 1t was like this:
We arrived about three in the
afternoon and the baggage came
soon afterward and was piled un-
tremendously on the first sacred
imperial floor. A squad of idle SOL
diers outside was impressed to
carry 1t up to our rooms. As they
cames down stairs after performing
this function they began to sing.
thought the servants would burst
into tears. They looked at one an
other and shook their dear old heads
in despair. Common soldiers sing
ing in the temple of the Roma noffs! !
This was indeed beyond endurance.
One Of them could not contain
himself but broke loose with a We
hement protest. He looked SO cut
up that we were moved to ask the
interpreter what allied the old boy.
It seems that what he was saying
was this:
There it is There it is! Sing
ing in the Cars palace! And that is
what they call liberty. / say again
as l have said before, this liberty
viii be the ruin of Russiaw
But the soldiers, they Just laughed
and sang the next stanza and two of
US laughed with them, and that
settled us in the minds of the SER
Vitors. We were evidently ourselves
of this vile hoi polloi
Palace n Business Onice.
But they must have become some
what hardened to 1t all by this time,
II any of them are left in the haunt.
Because use has been found at
last for the monstrous pile that was
SO long the worlds hugest monument
Of insane extravaganza. The gov
ernment has moved into it and turned
it into a hive of business. The
magnificent suite once occupied by
Catherine II and her successive low
ers is now filled with desks. The
rooms that waited seventy-five years
to be entered by a single royal guest
now resound with the rattle Of type
writers. Common, ordinary clerks
hustle over the thick carpets.
The madEouse has become the home
OF business and the dwelling of san
ity and purpose.
1t Is a great change, typical of the
change that is coming over the world.

FREIGHT-CAR BAN |
FORCED BY WAR!
Nonessentials Must Give
Way to Needs Of
Conflict.
~ TRACY HAMMOND LEWIS.

By TRACY HAMMOND LEWIS.
The United States government has
taken its nrst definite step in dis
eliminating against Industries non
essential to war activities In the or
ders issued last night which forbid
among other things. the use Of Cpen
top freight cars other than nat cars,
for the shipment of materials and
supplies for the construction, main
tenance or repair Of theaters or other
buildings used for amusement pu--
poses.
In addition II presents the ship
nnents in such cars Of materials and
supplies other than coal for the con-
struction OF maintainence Or repair OF
public or private highways. roadways,
streets or sidewalks. for the manu-
facture Of pleasure vehicles, furniture
and musical instruments or the trans
portation of the last three articles IN
their finished state.
Although the order does not act as
an efYectual ban to the movement by
rail Of such articles since they can
still be transported in closed freiSh.
cars II Is important as an indication
that the further the United States
progresses into the war the less con-
sideration will 1t afford enterprises
which 1t sets apart as unnecessary
for the maximum effectiveness OF our
country In the war.
In Peace Classification
It Is apparent that 1t has placed
anusements, furniture and passenger
vehicles in the peace classification and
when further Tightening up Is deemed
advisable they will be the ones upon
whom the burden will fall the soon
est.
The order. which gives the priority
OF shipment of coal. coal ore, lime
stone, sugar beets. sugar cane. sor-
ghum cane and raw materials for use
in the metal. sugar and fertilizer in
dustries and other commodities re-
quired In the national defense and
security was issued last evening by
Robert s. Lovett. chairman of the
Priority Shipments Committee of the
War Industries Board, which he will
shortly assume temporary chairman
ship.
II Is not believed that any serious
hardship will be felt by the theatrical
concerns as a result OF the order al
though some Inconvenience will be
felt. Closed freight cars can be obtain
ed to serve the purpose for which they
are needed although 1t is certain that
the increased demand upon the sup
ply wrich will consequently result
will cause slower and more expensive
service for those who wish to use
them.
It Is possible IL the bad situation
which now exists in the transportation
Of war commodities is not soon re-
lieyed as a result of the order that
another announcement will be forth
eobing which will greatly decrease, or
In some cases totally forbid the trans
portation by railroads OF certain ma

Apple Purely Gift of Nature.

has always hankered for apples and
much of his time has been spent in the
culture of this king of fruits. There
are apples SO well-f1avored and juicy

ten cents apiece, and each apple lover
has his favorite. But how many apple
lovers can tell where or how his favor

CITY WELL WORTH VISITING
of the Most Picturesque Spots
of the East.

The little known city of Kun is one
of the most picturesque spots in the
near East and one of the few really in
teresting towns in modern Persia. 1t
is reached by horse from Teheran and
the journey is still made in such prim-
tive fashion that Kun is little visited
by tourists in the best of times, all
though the road, in many parts built
over the grade of an old high road of
the days of Persia's glory, is good
enough judged by the standards Of the
near East.
The European visitor to Kun is like
ly to feel a certain yelled hostility in
his reception, for the city is one of the
holy places of the Mohammedan faith,
hardly behind Mecca and Medina in
this respect. A stream Of pilgrims pours
into Kun almost as large as the one
that flocks continually to those other
shrines, and, even more than the
holier cities, Kun is sought by the
faithful as fitting and sacred spot for

Died of Premature

How many times we hear of compare
lively young persons passing away
when they should have lived to be 70 or
so years of age. This fatal work is usu-
ally attributed to the kidneys, as, when
the kidneys degenerate, it causes auto
intoxication. The more injurious the
poisons passing thru the kidneys, the
quicker will those noble organs be de-
generated, and the sooner they decay.
To prevent premature old age and
promote long life, tighten the work of
the kidneys by drinking plenty of pure
water all day long, and occasionally TAX
