the most prolific journalist in France,
contributing regularly to the Revue

consistent in his attitude toward
Germany, from the days when he was
raised, as bon Lorrain, TO the prest-

His prestige is enormous.
There are living at this moment no
fewer than four former presidents of
tho republic. AS the term of office
is seven years, this Is a somewhat
remarkable fact. But whoever hears
of Emile Loubet, or of Armand Fall

them in public life.

made in another mold. Still compar-
atiVely young, with an alert mind,
full OF ambition unsatiated, believing
that he is the strong man that his
country needs, he declines TO be
buried alive, and is taking a notable
revenge for his impotence during the
latter years at the Elysee. He is the
