worry never happen. In 1914 when
the war began many men OF high In
teIligence predicted world bankruptcy

destruction II it lasted year.
It has lasted nearly four and half
years and neither Of the dread fore

as well confess, moment when part
of the crown Jewels Of the kingdom

i The Princess Hedwig appeared that
evening without rouge, and was the

The dinner was endless, which was
necessary, since nothing was to follow
but conversation. There could, under
the circumstances, be no dancing. And
the talk at the table, through course
after course, was somewhat hectic,
even under the constraining presence
Of King Karl. There were two reasons
for this:, Karl's presence and his pur.
pose-as yet unannOunced, but sun
missed, and even known-and the sit
uation In the city.
That was bad. The papers had been
ordered to make no mention of tho
occurrence of the afternoon, but 1t was
we'll known. There were many at the
table who felt the whole attempt fo0l-
hardy, the setting of match to in,
flammable material. There were otn-
ers who resented Karl's presence in
Livonia, and all that it implied. And
perhaps there were, too, among the
guests, one or more who had but re-
Gently sat in less august and more aw-
full company.
Beneath all the brilliance and chat
ter, the sparkle and gayety, there was,
then, uneasiness, wretchedness, and
even treachery. And outside the pal-
ace, held back by the guards, there
still stood part of the sullen crowd
which had watched the arrival Of the
carriages and automobiles, had craned
forward to catch glimpse Of uniform
or brilliantly shrouded figure entering
the palace. and muttered as 1t looked.
Dinner was over at last. The party
moved back to the salon, a vast and
empty place, hung with tapestries and
gayly lighted. Here the semblance OF
gayety persisted, and Karl, affability
itself, spoke a few words to each OF
the guests. Then 1t was over. The
guests left, the members Of the coun.
Gil, each with wife on his arm,
frowsy, overdressed women most Of
them. The council was chosen foI
ability and not for birth. At last only
the suite remained, and constraint
vanished. I

WHY
Quiet Little Belgian City Is
But a Memory

Newport lies upon the User, the tidal
stream that stopped the German rush
for Calais. That June before the
world went mad. the peaceful town
drowsed In the sun-the pearly Bel
gian sun that painters love. The men
went down to the sea in their fishing
boats, or worked their fields; old worn-
en-, their lace upon their knees, sat In
a patch Of shade before the door and
piled their bobbins; children, with
shrill sweet voices, darted about like
birds; the creaking vain went to and
fro piled high with the>harvest. Four
thousand simple folk. exclaims writer
In the Atlantic. Not one remains.
Their houses, too. are gone. Their an
cient church, their historic tower, are
mounds Of ruin. And still the kissing
shells, hour by hour, day by day, tear
down the crumbling walls, adding fresh
ruin to a scene most desolate. The
people Of the sun are gone. Another
race inhablts there. They live In holes
beneath the ground. They come not
forth except to kill.

WHY scaraerow. Are Nude.

French peasants living in the north
ern half of France, largely occupied
by armies, probably haven't bought
any new Sunday suits since the war
began. It has been impossible to spare
transportation for carrying stocks Of
goods. Railway fares to the shops Of
Amiens or Paris are SO highsthat the
peasant would walk before he would
nay them. And he wouldn't walk be-
cause that would take too much time
away from his fields which are being
tenderly nursed and cozened into
bringing forth extra yields. The odd
result is that the thousands of scare
crows, which the thrifty French have
all over their farms to cut down the
loss Of seed and crops to minimum,
have been Invested Of their suits and
given straw substitutes. The peasants
are wearing the scarecrows' clothing
