CHAPTER XIX.

John came back to town from his
Cumberland home, telling himself that
all had gone as well as he had expect
ed. He had done his duty. He had
told Stephen his news, and they had
parted friends. Yet all the time he
was conscious of an undercurrent OF
disconcerting thoughts.
Louise met him at the station, and
he fancied that her expression, too,
although she welcomed him gatly
enough, was little anxious.
"Well7" she asked, as she took his
arm and led him to where her limou-
sine was waiting "What did that ter
rible brother of yours say?"
John made little grimace.
1T might have been worse" he de-
clared. "Stephen wasn't pleased, of
course. He hates women like poison,
and he always win. That is because
he will insist upon dwelling upon GER
tain unhappy incidents of our family
history"
II shall never forget the morning
he came to call on me-" Louise sighed.
He threatened all sorts of terrible
things II did not give you up"
"Why didn't you tell me about it?"
John asked.
Il thought 1t might worry you" she
replied, land it couldn't do any good.
He believed he was doing his duty.
John, you are sure about yourself,
aren't your"
He was a little startled by the earn
estness Of her words. She seemed
pale and fragile, her eyes larger and
deeper than usual. and her mouth
tremulous. She was like a child with
the shadow of some fear hanging over
her. He laughed and held her tightly
to him.
Her lips sought his and chung to
them. A queer little wave of passion
seemed to have seized her. Half cry

the little demons Of unrest that pulled,
every now and then. at his heart
strings.
"What Is this reception?" he asked.
She made little grimace.
1T Is a formal welcome from the
English stage to the French company
that has come over to play at the new
French theater," she told him. "SIr
Edward and 1 are to receive them.
You will come, will you not? 1 am

THE Gland FOR SOLDIERS" PROPOSAL

Fred D. Sherman immigration commissioner for
Minnesota has proposed plan for providing land
returning soldiers that may be adopted and yet
makes serious effort to reduce practical terms the
proposal Of LAND for soldiers" Sherman's plan in
brief is that any of land may list with the
government at what appraisers deem fair price;
soldier may select such land he desires
ceeding 160 acres and that the government will then
buy 1t and resell it to the soldier 40 time
cent, provided he reside the land for
five and make certain improvements Under this
plan the soldier could select either ready-made farm
piece Of land.
The idea of providing land soldiers have to
be very carefully thought out If it is to amount to
thing There is all the difference in the world between
piece Of land in sparcely settled section and
in developed country with roads, schools and rea-
sonabIe farm Improvements. The former de-
sable to the returning soldier than to anyone else

The poultry raisers are being asked
by the food administration for a
record-breaking output of winter
eggs for which there is an urgent
necessity this winter. The storage
stocks are 81 per cent less than a
year ago and are rapidly being con-
sumed. The United States is shar-
ing these storage eggs with the Al
lies whose production Of poultry
products is low. Domestic demand
too for eggs has been large, due to
the improvement in quality as re-
suit of compulsory Gambling. The
fact that the importation of Chinese
dried eggs was stopped in February,
1918, has added to the shortage as
bakers since that time have been
using the shell eggs.

According to food administration

Effective December 10, the special
regulation governing the distribu-
ton of fresh fruits or vegetables in
Guiding potatoes will be repealed.
This means that the shipment of
fruits returns to pre-war regulations
and that the food administration no
longer plays a part in the matter of
the grading of potatoes.
Morris tribune., 1918-12-20

The farmers of the country are
notified by the food administration
that more mill feeds are in prospect
and will be available about the
Christmas holidays. The return of
all-wheat bread to general use, the
relaxation of the substitute regula-
tions, the recently increased pur-
chases of flour by the food admins
tration grain corporation for export,
the cancellation of the so-called mill
extraction rule" which as war
time measure diverted into flour a
berry which ordinarily was used for
feed; all have combined to increase
the mill feed output fully one-fifth.
In the face of this increase, however,
the food administration warns
against too great optimism since, it
is declared, there will be continued
shortage of mill feed compared with
pre-war years and continued conser-
walton will be necessary.
The food administration notifies
retailers that the regulation concern
ing the advertising of combined sales
is still in effect. Special license reg
ulations providing for uniform
weights for packages of cereals prod
ucts and for uniform packages for
rice have been rescinded These
products now may be packed or sold
in sizes to suit.
The pea-pack of 1918 reported to
December and covering more than 95
per cent of the total pack of the
country reaches a total equivalent to
10,889,222 cases, each containing "a
number 2 cans. The pack this year
is about one million cases larger than
last year, which in turn was greater

Deeds, former chief of the equipment
division of the signal corps. be tried by
court martial for conveying confiden-
tial information to his former business
partner in the Dayton Wright Airplane
company, and for making false and
misleading statements with respect to
the progress of aircraft production"
The evidence in support of those
charges. Mr. Hughes suggested, should
be placed in the hands of the secre-

tai proceedings. But all this appears
to have no effect whatever upon Sec

THE GERMAN EMPIRE.

the German empire. which has now
SO suddenly fallen to pieces, was a con-
federation of twenty-five states and
one imperial territory, Alsace-Lor-
ralne. Prussia is the dominant mem
Der and the king of Prussia is by that
fact emperor. The upper legislative
body, known as the bundesrat. is a
federal council. composed of repre-
sentatives of the ruling powers of
the states, that is to say, of the roya1
and princely families. The members
are appointed and instructed by the
rulers. There are sixty-one members
of the bundesrat, of which Prussia
has seventeen. and these are appoint
ed by the emperor as his representa-
uves' He Also appoints three for
Alsace-LorrHne. The approval of the
bundesrat is necessary to all lepis1a-
'ioh andslts proceedings are in secret.
Inc popular legislative body is the
relchstag, body of 397.members. for
the election of which all male citi-
zens aged rs years or over NAV vote
but there has been no re-arransemen+
OF districts since 1871, with the result
that the industrial districts are made
quateiy represented. The reichstag is
not as powerful a body as the house
OF representatives at Washington Or
the house of commons, as the execu-
1--WE authority is less dependent unon
II. Appropriations for particular mr.
poses once made are AUTOMATICALLY
continued from year to year. The
reichstag has no power over the min
istry as in parliament. and none over
the emperor, who makes the minis
tiers. Even the bundesrat was not
consulted upon the declaration of war.
The two emperors at BeSlin and
Vienna put their countries into this
war by their own will and authority.
The government of Prussia, the
dominant state in the empire. is even
more autoeratic than that of the en-
pire. The legislature is the landtag.
the upper chamber of which is COM
posed of the nobility, with hereditary
privileges and titles, or indebted for
them to the emperor. The lower
house is elected by manhood suffrage,
but under a system which in this age
is remarkable. The voters of each
electoral district are divided into three
classes according to the amount of
taxes they pay, and these groups are
entitled to elect. each for itself, an
equal number of Representatives. The
result designed and accomplished is
| that the small group of the heaviest
| taxpayers has as large d representa-
voters in the third class. 1t is a vir-
tual notification of the doctrine OF
one man one vote. Finally. the king
has an absolute veto upon all legisla-
| ton.
