By the Associated Press
;Tlie Hague, Feb. 20. -Before an
swering the last allied note relative to
the extradition of former Emperor
William, the Dutch Government Is ex
pected to assure itself that tho erst
while monarch Is willing to settle down
for life nt Doom and not disturb the
world's pence. While, on answering
the original demand for extradition, the
Dutch Government acted without con
sulting Count Hohenzollern in' any
way, a different course may be pur
sued in the present Instance.
Holland will undoubtedly reply she
is willing to guard Willium of Hohen

sponsibiity for preventing any danger
to the world's pence, but it will prob
nblv be necessary to consult tho exile
before answering. No difhculty is an

Most of us acknowledge the vaiue of the Golden Rule, but there

THE influence that a child's su--roundings
have upon his habits
of thought is something tha'
should bo given careful consideration
when there is a question of buying
nursery furniture. It .'hould be
suited to the small persons who are
to use it. Most important of all the
furnishings is the bed or crib. It
goes without saying, of course, thai
it should be of sturdy construction,
and that the mattress should be
comfortable. Restful slumber, while
important to the well-being of
adults, is absolutely essential to
young children. Hence, it is most
important to select the crib and bed
ding carefully. Before making a
decision it would be wise to visit the
store of H. D. Dougherty & Co.,

QWEETS to the sweet," is a
j hackneyed saying, but it re
