KAISER CHANGES HIS TONE.

The kaiser ntaking to the workers at the krupp
works took very different tone than he usually uses lie
pleaded with them rather than commanded, and even
forgot to state definitely what God intended to do say
ing instead lit is inconcevabe that God will not stand
firmly with u.s. He also insisted they were fighting for
their country which shows the kaiser still imagnes he
is the whole country for he knows that all that is keeping
the war going is his and his lords decevng the peo
pie into the belief they fighting for their homes while
he knows they fighting only to perpeuate the Hohen-
zolern dynasty.
How the German people can be so camouflaged by
the Prussan gang of the modern mysteries. They
are told the allies would take their country and drive
them out This is preposerous proposition that 1t is
nconcevabe that intelligent people could for mo-
ment believe it. There in Germany in round numbers
650O0O0O people and in Austria-Hngary about 470O0
00O If the allies wanted to take these countries they
would have to move the present population out and
glance will show that the moving of nearly 12O0OOOOO
people would be some job Besides some country would
have to be found to them to and this would prove
another big task The German people will be left in pos-
session Of their country per force matter how the war
ends The allies expect this but they do not expect the
120O00000 Teuon people to be left under the control oil
the Hohenzoems the Hapsburgs and Prussianism That
is the part of the German country they are after and that
part they will get The kaiser and lis crowd will have to-
go that is the only solution Of the present dispute the
only acceptable ending of the war.

Ruth Convinces Brian That They Must
Move.
CHAPTER XXplT

CHAPTER XXglI.
Ruth had not given up the idea of
living n better quarters, 1t would be
more convenient for her to be nearer
the shop, and just as much so for
Brian. she grew to hate the little, dim
gy hallway and stairs, the ugly paper
in the rocms. The commonncss of it
all, had grown even more distasteful
than at FIRST, by contract.
Each night as she left the artistic
surroundings of the Fifth avenue shop,
and entered the door to the little flat,
her revnlsion grew greater, until ain
ally she got up courage to hint some
thing Of her feelings to Brian.
AT last, she made up her mind that
she would speak to him. She could
hardly wait to get home, now that she
had decided, so anxious was she to
speak to him about it. She had again
taken to spending part of her noon
hour looking for place that suited
her, aud had found one she considered
ideal. 1t was in the very building she
had looked for one, before she had
her raise. But when she did reach home,
aud faced Brian, she couldn't say a
word. Brian, however, sensed she had
something on her mind, and asked;
t'Wel what is it2"
ooh, Brian, saw the dearest little
apartment today not much bigger than
this, but SO light and airy 1t is in a
building not so far uptown with an
elevator and everything. And dear, it
isn't decorated, and the superintend-
ont told rue he would let me select all
the decorations, Do let take it dear.
1t would be better all around A law
yer needs to live in nice plaeel it is
such nice profession. Then, too, he is
apt to meet different class Of peo-
pie and so get some business. !" Ruth
had grown tactful with Brian.
Ruth's mind was Of the sort that
goes straight at its object. She hated
10 heat around the bush, to weigh her
words. Like most women, she was
guided to g0at extent by her mo-
tions, intuitions and instincts. She
'sfelt things. and felt hurt when Brian
did not also s'feeln them. She waited
for his answer.

ed. He spoke slowly, heavily.

"Well, there may be something in
what you say about lawyers needing
to live in good locally. Perhaps we
can arrange it, expect to get some
new cliente soon; until then guess I
can scratch what ] have, so that it

ignored Ruth in the matter He let her
understand that if he consented to the
change, it was because she had con-

He knew as well as did Ruth, that
he alone could not pay fifty dollars
rent and have anything left to meet
his, share of the other expenses, as
they had been doing But it pleased
him to ignore that side of it, and Ruth
was too delighted at her success to
