Suggestions are also frequently re-

The doctor talked slowly and stop,

majority of the prisoners he had met,
he was suffering from loss of memory
caused by his long Imprisonment,

One afternoon took my. escort to

into the Vaterland. Another time I
saw a crowd running and, looking In
their direction, saw an automobile
go by containing Hindenburg and
his staff officer. He Is the idol

popularity, and whenever the Huns
gain a victory he hurries to the

Is the kaiser who has gained a victory.

accompanied by his daughter, Miss
Jeanette. who was held in Belgium by
the Germans while her father was in
Germany. Added to the suneHings of
his imprisonment was the death of
his wife in Belgium after he had been
locked up for 10 months.
His jailers refused to allow him to
20 from Berlin to see her when she
was dying. The news of his wife's
death was withheld from him for II
days, and he was only given the date
after he had begged to be allowed to
20 to her funeral, to show that it was
too late. 4 r. :
Doctor Beland was only postmaster
general for two months in 1911 when
the Laurier administration was de-
feated over the reciprocity question.
It was because he had held this politi-
cal appointment that the Huns would
not permit him to leave Germany two
years ago when arrangements we're
made between that country and Great
Britain for the exchange of civilian
prisoners more than forty-five years

pounds in weight, and his luxuriant

finally released in exchange for the

been hurt and to hear what he would
say about such an unprovoked attack.
Father, who, by the way, was not n

to the colt, "Well Well! I'd think just
