Old Adelbert of the opera had lost
his position. No longer, a sausage In
his pocket for refreshment, did he
leave his little room daily for the

eyes at Olga, of the garde-rObe, and
who was not careful to keep the lenses
clean, had taken his place.
He was hurt in his soldiers soul.
There was no longer place in the
kingdom for those who had fought for
it. The cry was for the young. And
even in the first twenty-fOur hours Il
loyalty, on which he had built his
creed of life, turned to bitterness.
