this spirit of resignation being exact
" what the Tar had hoped for, he
had thought it better to refrain from
saying anything to the "dear old
grandfather" since at is better to
let the idea develop and ripen in their
heads and let them draw final conclu-
sions themselves, so that they will on
their own accord be moved to lean up
on us and fall in line with our two
countries" The morality of the whole
proceeding stands in its naked bar
barity, and it is the most perfect COM
mentary, written in advance, on the
subsequent fate of Belgium.
In the end France was never told
at all. Monsieur Delcasse proved so
outrageously "Anglophile enrage"
that he actually made an agreement
with the United Kingdom at a mo-
ment when that country and Germany
were at loggerheads, and when "Willy"
was "doing his best" for "Nicky,"
Frances own ally. "This is an ex-
pertinent" "Willy" telegraphed in con-
sequence of this, to the Tar, on the
goth of September, 1905. (which she
must not repeat, and against repeti-
ton of which l must expect you to
guard me-" And again, "Our treaty
is a very good base to build upon. We
Joined hands and signed before God,
who heard our vows. /, therefore,
think the treaty can we'll come into ex-
istence. What is signed is signed.
God is our testator."
This then is the testament of Willy
and Nicky, the great twin brothers of
the worlds autocracy. And Nicky is
a prisoner in his own Siberia, whilst
Mr.. Wilson is talking of the elimina-
ton of Willy.-Christian Science Mon

HOW TO PUT CHILDREN TO BED

Not with a reproof for any of that
days sins of commission or commits
sion; take any other time but bedtime
for that. If you ever heard a little
creature signing in its sleep you could
never do this. Seal their closing eyes
with kiss and blessing. The time
will come, all too soon, when they will
lay their heads upon their pillows lack
ing both. Let them at least have the
sweet memory of childhood, of which
no future sorrow or trouble can rob
them. Give them their rosy youth.
Nor need this involve wild license. 1Me
judicious parent will not mistake the
meaning. If you have ever met the
man, or woman, whose eyes have sud-
denly filled when little child has
crept trustingly to its mothers breast,
you may have seen one in whose child
hood home dignity and severity stood
where love and pity should have been.
