Tuesday Bad Day for Wilson
AutOePAey.

A~esuey nsu DSy I'VE Whsou
AutocFaey.
After q great fight and a great vic
tory for the safety Of democracy in
America short comment is welcome.
THE SUN does not intend to enlarge
much upon the obvious. The response
Of President WILSON'S fellow country
men to his partisan appeal Of Octo-
Der 25--perhaps the most glaring tao
teal blunder in a career Of exceeding
political adroitness-was swift, un-
mistakable and terrific In its impact
upon his personal ambitions.
He asked In the name Of the dag
for partisan control of the represen-
tatives Of the people. The flag smote
him; smote him not as President,
but as a partisan leader.
He demanded as party leader the
undivided mastery Of legislative proc
esses, pleading that in grim times like
these scruples Of taste must not be
allowed to stand In the way Of plain
speaking. In the same spirit of grim
actually his fellow countrymen gave
him day before yesterday some Of the
plaipest speaking which ever reached
the ears Of a party leader in the
White House.
His partisan control Of both the
Senate and the House Is overthrown.
The supremacy Of the little Southern
oligarchy Of inexpensive politicians
which with his knowledge and con-
sent has dominated, In the interest of
their own pockets and their own cot
ton, The entire national machinery
Of taxation and expenditure and eco
nomic welfare and official establish
ment is broken to smithereens
His power to command for all
purposes in the exercise of his war
responsibilities the patriotic support
Of his fellow countrymen Of all par
ties has not been touched by Tues
days responsive vote. His favorite
doctrine Of Presidential mastery, out
side Of constitutional limits and in
domestic affairs, set forth so openly
in his earlier writings as a political
philosopher, has encountered, at his
own invitation. a crushing veto by
the majority Of the democratic mill.
ions Of American voters.
This Is the main lesson Of the cleo.
ton. the outstanding fact Of the Re.
publican victory.
But this Is not quite all that hap.
pened to the President on Tuesday
The Council Of the Allies, in confer.
ence at Versailles with his indivldu'
ally chosen but constitutionally un'
confirmed diplomatic agent, has told
him something else, very delicately
but very plainly. The associated
Governments In the war to make the
world safe for democracy have told
him that such matters Of world i'm
port as the future fabric of mari
time international law and the ap
praisal Of the just penalty to be i'm
posed upon Prussian autocracy fol
its crimes against international Law
are to be settled by the concerted
action of the duly accredited repre-
sentatives of all the Governments
concerned, and not by individual dec
laration In any quarter. however ex
allied or pregnant with wisdom. The
Senate is a party to the making Of
treaties Of peace.
That the reminder Of these fact:
should have come from abroad, and
in a manner so politely considerate
of President WILSON'S intellectual
zeal for settlement by individual de
cree, is not the least significant o.

This includes the following items:

To these items must be added the cost

The one sky-fung leap it made as Its
weight burst down n mountain wall
was enough to blot out Khinjan for
ever. and what had been n dry, mile

The Hangar laughed.

he said. Think kindly of her, sahib.
She thought well enough of YOU"
He laughed again and sprang on the
black mare. and before King could
speak or raise a hand to stop him he
was off at wondrous speed along the
precipice in the direction Of the Khy-
Der pass and India. Two of the men
who had come out of Khinjnn mounted
and spurred after him.
King collected his men and the wem-
en- and children. 1t was easy, for they
were numb from what they had wit
messed and dazed by fear. In half an
hour he had them mustered and

And then the general came and did
not wait for King to get dressed but
burst into the bathroom and shook
hands with him while he vas still

a gatling gun) while King was getting
on his trousers. divining each answer
after the third word and waving the
rest aside.

King the moment he could slip the
question In edgewise.
"Oh, yes, Of curse. Try the case
here as well as anywhere. What does
this mean?"
Out of his pocket the general pro-
duced a letter that smelt strongly of
a scent King recognized. He spread
it out on n table, and King read. 1t
was Yasmini's letter that she had sent
down the Khyber to make India too
hot to hold him.
"TOo bad about your brother" said
the general. 1.-The body Is buried.
How much Is true about the head?"
King told him.
"Where's she? asked the general.
King did not answer. The general
waited.

"Ask the Rangar." Courtenay sug-
gested.

WHY JENNIE HATES FLOWERS
They Mean to Her the Very Opposite
Of Green Fields, Pleasant odors,
Birds and Bees.

II hate flowers" said Jennie, a lit
tie Italian girl Of 9, as she bent over
the pile of white daisy petals on the
kitchen table. She was busily pick
ing up the "peps," first dipping each
stem In paste smeared on a piece OF
board, slipping a petal up each stem
and inserting 1t in n of the green
tubes On the wreath.
Flowers to her did not spell green
fields, pleasant odOrs or something
soft and agreeable to feel and handle.
To this little girl living in the crowded
Italian district on the lower west side
of New York city, flowers meant piles
of hideOusly cOlored petals of cambria,
stiff with starch and dye and smelling
strongly of alcohol, glue and paste.
These she had to fetch from the fac
tory every day after school. Before
school the next morning the family
had to manufacture" them into
flowers.
Everyone worked, all except the
father. who declared that 1t was not
"a mans work." and an older son, who
was driver on a wagon truck. Even
the baby, Is months old. could help by
picking apart the petals. Maggie, 4
years old, was too young to go to
school, but she could work the greater
part of the day. Nardo, aged 9. was
an expert hand, although his mother
complained that he wanted to play.
Besides Jennie there was little Ange-
lima, a %hunchback Of IL years, who
really the forewoman of the
group, seeing to it that each days
quota was faithfully done.
The account-book showed that six
dozens Of wreAths, with 30 flowers.
were finished every night. The but
tercup wreaths brought 8 cents a
dozen and the daisies 10 cents. For
this work the family received $2.SS
or $500 a week, according to whether
they worked on buttercups or daisies.

But on the other hand, those who saw
both of them come out were certain
that both were smiling.

King went up the .Khyber again, for
the official records say So, and they
never lie, especially In time Of war. He
rode Il cOal-black mare, and COurtenay
called him "Chikki"-a "lifter."
Some say the Hangar went to Delhi.
Some say Yasmini Is In Delhi. Some
say no. But 1t is quite certain that be-
fore he started up the Khyber King
showed Courtenay a great gold brace
let that he had under his sleeve. FIVE
men saw him do it.
And If that was really Rewa Gupga
in the generals train. why was the
general SC painfully polite to him? And
why did Isnail insist on riding In the
train, instead of accepting Kings offer
to go up the Khyber with him?
One thing Is very certain. King was
right about the jihad. There has been
none in spite of all Turkeys and Ger
many's efforts. There have been spo-
radio raids, much rs usual, but nothing

ed, you must ask King-if you dare {;
for only he knows, and one other. It
is not likely you can ind the other.
But it is likely that you may hear
from both of them again, for "A won.

says The war seems long, and the
world is large, and the chances for in.
trigues are almost infinite, given such
combination as King and Yasmini and
a love affair. ~
And as King says on occasion /:
"Kuch dar nahin hal There is no such
thing as fear" Another n might
say, 1.-THE roofs the limit"
And bear in mind, for this Is lmpOr'

Ewes Made Of Rubber,

Everybody knows that eyes were
made to rubber. Very few know that
eyes are now being made of rubber.
This is one Of the million results of the
war, notes a correspondent.
Glass eyes are always more or less
uncomfortable, and frequently insight
ly, and it is interesting, therefore
when the defOrmities Of war are SO
serious a subject Of consideration, to
learn that two French workers, Nine.
Lemaitre and Teuillieres, have evolved
an entirely new method of replacing a
lost eye. By the use of a combination
Of a hard and soft rubber substance
they have achieved their aim and are
producing an eye that looks we'll and
feels well. IA ~.

"lioht Of the Moon"

The phrase 'the light Of the moon"
is an indefinite one, not used by SCI
entists and used BY others fn' mistak-
en- and misleading sense. The. moon
has nc. light of. its. own, and the only
light that comes from it is the reflected
light of the sun, without any warmth
or life;giving quality or, any effect on
vegetation. As loosely used by many
persons, the expression Tight Of the

month preceding and a few nights fol.
lowing full moon. Many persons think
this tight Of the moon" period has an
important bearing on seed termination
and plant growth. but that Is q mis-.

she must be watching him now, for
even the East repeats itself. She had
sent Ismail for that purpose. 1t vas
likely that her course would depend on
his. If he failed, she was done with
