empire which was German was gradual

divided against itself. there came into
being on the borderlands of these coun-
tries two new powers, one OF which has
lasted until our day.
The first OF these new powers was the
Duchy of Burgundy. The rulers OF the
duchy, by marriage. by actual purchase
and by conquest. managed to extend its
boundaries until it took in much of Hol-
land and Belgium. But out of the
hazards of war came defeat and death
to Charles the Bold, who then ruled
Burgundy. and the duchy was Joined to
France. But it wasn't France that won
this victory alone. it was the League of
the Swiss Cantons, who came out of the
conflict with 4 great reputation as war
riors.

gan among three small mountain dis
tricts on the borders of Germany, Bur-
gundy and Italy. These were called

She was as good as her word. As she
saw me come into the room she whisked
the coffee pot from the stove. deity
poured a cup, added cream and sugar
in the proportions which long experience
Of I.illian's tastes had taught her, and
handed 1t TO me on tiny tray.
"Taint no use carryin' up muffin

''Thank you, Betty. I'll see that she
drinks it, 1 promised. and as I carried

upon the queer combination of insolence
and dog-like faithfulness that Betty

trifie wildly. rs Robert"
Nothing has happened" I said quick
", answering the tortured query in her
ewes. But the nurse thinks Robert will
rouse soon. so drink this coffee Betty
sent up. and well go to him immedi-
ately."
She reached for the cup with hand
that trembled. I held it to her lips, and
she drained it quickly. Then I brought
her shoes and a house gown, and after
she had twisted up her heavy silver hair
l slipped my arm through hers, walked
beside her across the hall to the door OF
Robert Savarin's room. She was visibly
trembling. pitifully unlike her usual
poised self. and as Mrs. CosErove. who
had been sitting outside her brothers
door, rose to meet her felt my friend S

elder woman put out her arms to her.
The nurses eyes keenly appraised us
all as she opened the door OF the sick
