were the mainstay of the Industries
Of Vienna. German Austria, in fact.
would be one Of the poorer and less
Important Of the States built up In the
former Austro. Hungarian monarchy.
Despite this It Is not cleur that the
German Austrians really desire the
protection Of North Germany in their
state building. The interest of prus-
sia has been In the past expensive to
Austria. The Prussians took from
her the richest portion Of Silc.sia and
cxacted from her as the consequence
of her defeat In 1866 all of her South
German provinces. 1t became evident
to the .Austrlans early in the war that
even in case Of the success Of the Cen
trail Powers Austria would be merely
State subscrvient to Prussia. 1t is
these very evident considerations that
have made the German Austrlans ex-
tremely lukewarm to the Berlin pro-
posal Of union with Germany.
The reports from Vienna are that
the sentiment Of the people Is rather
in favor OF an independent State and
that the German Austrians would
stake their future not upon the pro-
lection that Prussia offers hut upon
the hopes Of forming federation of
Austrian and South German States.
The announced plan OF the Allies ar.
ter all may be not in opposition to the
desires of the German Austrians, and
Count Won Observation-Disclosures in
rising to their defence may be speak
ing less in their interest than in the
interest of Prussia.

The estimated re" OF 20 per cent. in

The opinion was general that IN nor

Large increases were also reported in the
price OF kitchen utensils and furniture.

Three Questions.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUS--Sir: Is
it any more reprchensble for the farm
ers to unite and fix the selling price of
their products than for the workmen to
unite and fix the price OF their labor?
II labor unions are allowed collective
bargaining. why should not farmers be
allowed the same?
Is there any way. except by slavery,
whereby one man can be compelled to
raise food for another man.

CHAPTER XII,

Young George paid his respects to
his grandfather the following morning,
having been occupied with various af-
fairs and engagements on Sunday un-
til after the Majors bedtime; and top
les concerned with building or exca-
vations were not introduced into the
conversation, which was a cheerful
one until George lightly mentioned
some Few plans of his. He spoke Of
his desire to extend his proficiency In
driving: in fact, he entertained the
ambition to drive four-in-hand. How
ever. as the Major said nothing, and
merely sat still, looking surprised,
George went on TO say that he did not
propose to "go In for coaching Just
at the start" he thought 1t would be
better to begin with tandem. He
was sure Pendennis could be trained

arrived uncle was engaged In talk with
the Major.
Georges glance lowered, resting cas-
ually upon the indistinct ground, and
he beheld some vague shapes. unfa-
miliar to him. Formless heaps. they
seemed: but. without much curiosity,
he supposed that sewer connections or
water pipes might be out of order,
making necessary some excavations.
Not greatly disturbed, he pulled down
the shade, yawned. and began to un-
dress. leaving further Investigation for
the morning.
But in the morning he had forgotten
all about 1t. and raised his shade. to
let in the light. without even glancing
toward the ground. Not until he had
finished dressing did he look forth
from his window. and then his glance
was casual. The next instant his at.
titude became electric, and he ran
from his room, plunged down the
stairs, out Of the front door, and, upon
nearer view of the destroyed lawn,
began to release profanity upon the
breezeless summer air, which remained
unaffected. Between his mothers
