King Ferdinand of Bulgaria,
though exiled from the land over
which he once ruled, is as ardent
a patriot as ever, according to his

He has given orders that his
palace at Coburg, with its price
less collections Of butterflies, rare
birds, insects and plants, shall al
ways be open to visiting Bulgar-
ian students, scientists, artists,
poets and prose writer's.
Despite his age, Father Roman
off says, the old "czar" is as ener-
getic as ever and full Of enthu-
siasm for his scientific pursuits.
He gets up early every morning
and spends much time preparing
his memoirs. The afternoons he
devotes to arranging his
collections.
The ex-king spends. the evenings
in reading, having on his table all
the Bulgarian newspapers and
new books, which he peruses with
great interest. Recently he inter.
rupted his studies for a tour Of
Switzerland, travelling incognito
as Count Mirandi: but being easily
recognized, he was invariably ad.
dressed as Majesty" and shown
all the respect due to his former
rank.
The chaplain hinted that the
forthcoming memoirs might con-
tain some sensational revelations,
