show.
Four years of warfare and
massacre had broken up thou
sands Of homes. and many little
unfortunates were taken into the
kindly shelter of the mission
orphanages as fast as room could
be found for them. But after
the first crisis was over they
were all examined carefully, and
a few were found to be suffer

durable infection. which made
them a menace to the health Of
the others.
These luckless ones, though It
almost broke the superintend-
ent's heart, had to be put else

out again into the wretched life
from whence they came.
Among them was a small girl
afflicted with an acute form of
"scald-head" tfavus). which is
akin to ringworm, but even
worse.
She did not live far from the
orphanage. and almost daily
would come to the superintend-

yards further back there were
several other members Of the
household, when the hum Of an
aeroplane was heard.
Suddenly the kaiser stopped and
looked all around. displaying
great nervousness. In the mean
time those who were behind us
had caught UP with us and in an
other five minutes we saw an
aeroplane sweeping down toward
the grounds.
We all made every attempt to
pacify the kaiser. but we could

but the kaiser was seized with fear
beyond reason.
BY that time the aeroplane came
lower, within four or five hun
dred yards ahead Of us. The
kaiser's demeanor was that Of q

plane descending from the skies,
shouting and gestulating.
BY that time I had his arm and
was trying to explain that there
was no danger. He finally jerked
his arm away from me and In

made still simpler without jeopar-
dizing our health.
He started on q confused
harangue and followed me to the
very threshold Of my own room.
A few days later inspired arti-
cies began to appear in German
publications telling how poor and
lonely the old monarch was at
Doom.
The reason for this obvious
affectation became clear when q
short time later It became known
that his Representatives were at
tempting to realize huge sums for
his book from the poverty-stricken
German newspapers.
THINKS BOOK VALUABLE.
On more than one occasion the
kaiser boasted to me that a pub

million pounds for his book, and
he firmly believed that he could
realize that sum from English
publishers at any time.
Having had many converse.
tions with various Englishmen
visiting The Hague, / was quite
confident that such a sum could
not be realized by the kaiser from
English sources.
Though there never has been
any attempt made on his life
during my stay at Doom. yet the
kaiser lives in constant fear Of
some invisible enemy.
One day about a year ago he
was stroiling on the grounds.

was later told by other men,
bers Of the household who had
served him at AInerongen that a
similar episode had occurred at
Count Bentinck's palace. On that
occasion the kaiser became quite
Ill and was forced to remain in his
room for nearly two weeks.

Another episode witnessed dur
ink my stay at Doom was caused
by the arrival Of q courier who
brought messages from several
prominent Monarchists who sought
a conference at Doom at which the
presence Of the crown prince was
suggested.

ADVOCATES AN ALLIANCE.
Thus during the latter part of
1921 we were subjected to a series
Of talks on a triple alliance Of
England, Germany and Russia.
The kaiser was certain that

Germany had so exasperated Eng

 The Lotus Eater. an Associated Firsf National attraction, starring that peer of AmerSan actors. John Barrymore. and personally directed by Marshall Neiian has been meeting win unusual Euccezs at the Strand theatre where it began @ two day engagement. Crowded houFes have been the rule. becsnss of the lure of the biz names attached'to the proiuc- ton.
 Barrymore has such a tremendous fol- lowing that his name on a film alone guarantees its success and the ssus car. be said Of Directo- Neilan. But fhf fact that the story is the work Of Aiber Payson Terhune and that the titles wHri written by George Ade. both fzmo1s r literary circles. have intensified the de. mand for tickets.
 In addition. the story is one of tho most dramatic and original ever pro duced. Barrymore plays the part oi Jacques Lenoi. who does not sec a u-o- man until he Is twenty-five years Of age. due to his fathers wishes. Du-ins those years he travels the seven seas sever setting eyes on a woman. uutf | his twenty-ffth birthday. He lands in New York that day. and then begin a series of adventures which are highly entertaining.
 One of the most thrilling Of the scs1st shown Is a dirisible flight over the Pa ciic ocean. during which Bsrryrnc-s dives from the basket of the blimp into the ocean.
 Starting off with an air of tragedy. ths story is eniivened with scenes taken on a desert island where a colony has frars- formed the garden spot into a 1aradiHe where all live happily. A very funny Mack Sennstt c1ns6- called Gymnasium Jim and a srlznich News make up the remainder of this pro gram.
