fcated in the field, forced to sue for

rising in revolt. gives up his power. He
came into authority with his country
at the threshold of an era of peace

four years of war-virtually ruined.

William Hohenzoilern, the former
emperor of Germany, who began the
world war and who abdicated Wien
he was convinced that Germany must
surrender to the victorious allies, has
arrived in Holland, ana is now at the
town of Destieg, near Utretch. where
he hopes to escape further punish
ment at the hands of the nations he
has SO grievously wronged.
Desteeg is on the Guelders Yss2l. an
arm of the Rhine river, about forty
miles east of Utrecht and twelve miles
from the German border. The chateau
Middachten, to which the former en-
peror is reported to be proceeding, be-
longs to Count William Frederick

member of the Prussian guards, and
before the war was attached to the
German embassy in Lrldon and a
member of the English Turf and Royal
Automobile clubs. He is 80 years old
He belongs to the famous Anglo-Dutch-
German house of Bentinck, the con-
tinental branch of the -amily of the
Duke of Portland.
Middachten castle dates back to the
year 1897.
The former German emperor's party,
which is believed to include Field Mar
shal Won Hindenburg, arrived at Eys-
den, on the Dutchs frontier, at 7 80
o'clock Sunday morning, according to
Daily Mail advices.
Practically the whole German gen.
eral staff accompanied the former en-
peror; and ten automobiles carried the
party. The automobiles were bristllng
with rifles, and all the fugitives were
armed.
The ex-kaiser was in uniform. He
alighted at the Eysden station and
paced the platform, smoking a Gig
arctic.
Chatting with the members of the
staff, the former emperor, the CORE

an imperial train, including restaur-
ant and sleeping cars, ran into the

The Reason Why,

This difference in the complexion oil
people is due to the varying amount o.
pigment or coloring material in the
cells of which the skins of all animals
are made. Very light people have very
little pigment; very dark people, those
with dark eyes and black hair, have Q
great deal of this coloring material
in their cells.
A great many people are neither
light nor very dark. They have less
than the dark complexioned people
and more than the light comp'exioned
people. When the hair turns gray
1t Is because the pigment has disap-
peared. As this is due to the loss of
this coloring material, dark complex
Toned people turn gray sooner than
light complexioned people. The struc-
ture of the skin showing how these
cells are made in layers can be seen
by examining the skin with a micro
scope.

fell, striking his head and shoulders

that he died the next morning. Which

be careless, even in such trivial de-

ROMANCE IN RUSKINS LIFE
Divergent Religious Views for Lono
Time Separated Him From the
Woman rie Loved.

In 1896 HuSkin declared his love for
Rosie La Touche and told her parents
o4 his hope to make her his wife, SAYS
:. Howard Whitehouse In Scribner's.
f.Fre Was Il great difference of years
between them. Ruskin was forty-sey-
en-; Rosie was in her eighteenth year.
There was some natural hesitation on
the part of the parents, and it was ar
ranged that the matter should.be post
poned for three years.
But when the period Of probation
F"Hs ended new difficulties arose.
There was hesitation not only on the
nart of the parents, but also by Rosie.
Miss La Touche was of deeply re-
liglous nature, but her views were Or
thodox and she did not share the wider
views on spiritual questions in which
Ruskin increasingly believed.
Her love for him had never wav-
cred since the days of her childhood; ;
but she doubted If, holding the views
she did, she could marry him. Both
she and Ruskin suffered the deepest
distress.
For little time there was es-
arrangement, and there is4a moving en-
try in Ruskin's diary in the year 1870:
Last Friday about twelve o'clock at
noon my mistress passed me and
would not speak," In the following
year there was reconciliation.
The end of Ruskin's dream came in
1875. Miss La Touches health never
strong, began to fail, and she died In
May of that year.

JUST WHAT is SIMPLE LIFE?
Interesting Question Often Asked Is
Here Answered by One Who
Claims to Know,

Most of us are inclined to hold to
the opinion that a man leading a sim
pie life is creature who necessarily
has TO walk barefoCted or without tn
full outfit of modern clothes, and that
it is only country folk who can lead
that sort of life, by virtue of their con-
tact with nature. Nothing could be
further from the truth. A millionaire
occupying a mansion on Fifth avenue
can lead the simple life, if in his dis
charge Of daily duties he looks upor
his fellow man as his brother. and does
not enlarge in his own eyes his inDor-
tance, due to his palatial residence or
his expensive clothes. On the other
hand, the farmer or the man who
walks around barefooted from raceS-
sity, or who wears the simplest sind
of clothes because he cannot afford
others, and goes about with envy in
his heart toward eyory hcing who pos
sesses more than h does, is far from
living the simple life in thought or
dress or in any other manner
10 lead simple life one has but to
realize that it is the spirit in which
things are done, and the spirit in
which life is lived. That is the essen
tial thing. This is applicable to dress.
to work, to education. thoughts and
pleasures and, I might say last that
which should have said first, to ma
terial dealings between man and his
fellow beings.-Misha Appelbaum in
the Humanitarian.

Concerning Fasting.

1t is impossible to stop eating and
not feel the pangs of hunger, according
to the Popular Science Monthly. If
you have been led to believe differently
by the stories Of men who have under
gone fasting tests, listen to the words
Of professor of the University of
Chicago. He found as result Of OBJ
servation on man during prolonged in
territorial starvation that the view that
hunger mechanism fails early does not
hold as a general rule. The profess
sional faster, he points out, may ignore
the pangs Of hunger in a spirit of bra
vado.
Indian takers who have been prac-
tclng the trick Of fasting until the nor
NAL cravings Of the body have submit
ted to will power are said to be able
to 60 without food for incredible Pc
riods Of time. But probably the real
truth of the matter is known only to
them.
