CHAPTER IX
(Copyright, 1918, by King Features
Syndicate, Inc.)
"I'll drive you to the Waigrave, es
tablish you safely, and then I'll take
our little car back to the garage,"
said Jim, as he motored into town
from our honeymoon trip.
"The Waigraver But that's so
frightfully expensive!" I gasped.
"Well, I don't know much about
New York hotels. Princess Ann, but
that's where I've always stayed.
Where would you suggest going?"
"Not to a hotel at all, Jim. Let's
go to my little boardinghouse—l'd
be happy there."
"But I'd not be happy to have you
there! We'll make it the Waigrave
till we find a little place of our own.
Look here, little girl, I may have to
bring you back to the city, after
only a week of honeymoon vaca
tioning, but there'll be no boarding:
houses In yours, Mrs. Harrison."
I turned to study my husband's!
face. It was drawn, haunted—it
wore again the strange expression
that had stolen across it last night.
I wanted to protest against the
extravagance of the yellow marble,
violet velvet, Circassian walnut
hotel to which he was planning to
take me, but I felt that another
word would only add to Jim's suf
fering.
The lobby of the Waigrave was
filled with women who wear ra.iah
silks at Puln'i Beach in February
and sables in New York in June—
with them and the men who can
pay for sucn luxuries. And my Jim
in his uniform passed among them
like a king, though he limped and
leaned heavily on his cane as if ho
were tired.
A Gay Sight
Our room was all rose and gold
and creamy-tan wood. It had one
narrow window high above the
street, and a little white enamel
bath that was windowless. The boy
who escorted us there, opened its
window, put it down again a little
way, lowered the shade, ran it up
again, moved the thermos bottle of
ice water around from one side of
its tray to another—and then elab
orately bowed himself out with
.Tim's extravagant tip in his hand.
My husband looked around•the
room. Tlare was a bitter tone in
his voice when he spoke:
"Dicky Royce takes two rooms and
bath on the Fifth avenue side when
he brings Sally here."
I pretended not to hear and swept
myself a curtsey In the long mir
ror embedded in the closet door.
"Welcome to town, Anne Har
rison," I cried. "Welcome to the
hotel you used to be frightened
even to pass. Now you're living
here —in fairy-tale gorgeousness for
a day or two, but you're a simple
soul, Anne Harrison, and you long
for a wee apartment out in the sub
urbs, and a kitchenette where you
can make goodies for your man."
"You darling!"
Jim caught me in his arms. He
was all gentleness now —not aflame

with the feeling that sometimes
terrifies me even while it summons
my very soul. He put his hands
against rav cheeks and cupped my [
face in their firm strength. I felt
suddenly like a child. I wanted to
lean against him and to sob out my|
Joy in belonging to him —in being i
his 'Mittle princess Anne." And j
then, Jim laid his head against my
hair, and my hero's voice sounded
broken and unsteady.
"I want you to have everything
in the world—clothes and a beauti
ful home and Servants to wait on
you, little Anne —not a flat and a
stuffy kitchenette. I want -to give
you all the. things Sheldon and
Dicky buy the. women they love—
and last night I couldn't even buy
you that rag doll. _lt hurt. It hu
miliated me. My little Princess
Anne. I want you to have every
thing!"
Reward Enough
I reached up and laid my hand
against's Jim's hair. I wasn't the
child now—but a mother comforting
her boy.
"Dear —dear lad, I have—you!"
I whispered.
Jim was silent a moment, while I
caressed his face and snuggled
closer against his heart.
Then he iaughed harshly:
"I have twenty-one hundred and
a few more hundred for rent a
year, and Dicky Royce spends more
than that on Sally in a week."
"Perhaps he has everything to
give Sally but what she wants—•
love like ours, Jim. Jim, darling—
my Jim—don't you see how rich I
.am, just saying that? You didn't
laugh at my terror over a bee.
You weren't angry when I was rude
to Mrs. Royce—we have so much
happiness and understanding! No
one has everything, but we have
more than any others I know. Oh,
lad, don't you see that you're giving
me what I want?"
"You wonderful little girl! My
sweetheart-dear!" Jim drew me
closer and closer to him his
strength hurt me, but it made me
happy.
A moment later he loosed his
arms from me and looked
deep into my eyes as he said:
"You want me! You say you have
what you want—you think you're
rich—Oh, Anne, little Anne, perhaps
I never had the right to marry
you."
I pushed myself away wildly star
ing into his face as I gaspeds
"What do you mean? No right?
Is there some other" — 1 —
I couldn't bring myself even to
speak the word, but I was thinking
of—Betty Bryce.
Jim stared at me in sheer amaze
ment.
"Another —women? Little Anne,
Little Anne, YOU are my woman—
the ONE woman for me —now and
forever. You must understand that.
And I can't—even protect you from
poverty!"
I wanted to shout with relief—•
so that was all, money! I tried for
a little note:
"A first lieutenant's pay isn't ex
actly starvation wages."
Jim's eyes hardened, his mouth
set:
"Whatever happens you shall
have that much anyway."
I knew that in his heart he was
making a sacred promise dimly
sensed also that there was some
thing more than money troubling
Jim. What was it? I didn't dare
ask—then.

How to Conserve
Canning and Packing For Win
ter's Use Explained in Detail by
National War Garden Experts.
CANNING FRUIT JUICES
The preparation of quantities of
fruit Jellies in these days is neither
helpful toward food conservation or
economical. Sugar is expensive, but
even if we can buy it without incon
venience, it. is one of the things
needed for shipment to our allies.
The alternative, offered instead of
Jelly making is to can fruit juices.
Juice from grapes, currants, cherries,
blackberries, raspberries, strawber
ries, plums and apples makes de
licious beverages. These may be put
up with a small quantity of sugar or
with none. Write to the National
War Garden Commission, Washing
ton, for a free canning manual,
which will be sent you upon request.
A two-cent stamp to cover pvstage
should be enclosed.
Sound, clean fruit should be
heated until soft (over hot water, a
double boiler device is safest). Strain
through a bag, squeezing the bag,
or use a fruit press. Inexpensive
ones for household use may be ob
tained and they are a great con
venience.
Pour the hot juice at once into
sterilized bottles—one level cupful
of sugar into each gallon of juice
may be first added if desired. Fill
the bottles to within one inch of the
top and seal loosely with new corks,
soaked one-half hour in warm soda
water (one teaspoonful soda to a
quart of water), and dipped, into
clear boiling water just before using.
Place in simmering hot water bath
and pasteurize irt this for thirty min
utes. The water should come to
within an inch of tops of bottles. Re
move and press corks in tight. With
a sharp knife cut off each cork even
with the top, placing the neck of
bottle on edge of table.
When cool dip each top of bottle
into melted paraffin of sealing wax.
Equal parts resin and beeswax melt
ed together make good wax. Melt
over hot water. Store in a cool, dark
place. The commission w'Ul gladly
answer any questions written on one
side of the paper and sent in a self
addressed stamped enevolpe.
Series of trays with ends facing
electric fan, for drying by air blast
is one of the suggestions made in
the free drying book being sent out
by the National War Garden Com
mission of Washington to readers
of this paper for a two-cent stamp to
pay postage-

THE KAISER AS I KNEW
HIM FOR FOURTEEN YEARS
By ARTHUR N. DAVIS, D. D. S.
(Copyright, 1018, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate)
(Continued)
When our interview came to an
end—it had lasted three-quarters of
an hour —I had but a hazy idea of
what the Reichskanzler was try
ing to get out of me. I felt that
Germany's resources were possibly
exhausted, that she really wanted
peace and that they wanted to
gauge America's attitude toward a
serious peace proposal.
The subject cf the U-boat cam
paign was ncvei mentioned and it
was not until several months later,
when tlie submarine warfare was
started again on a greater scale
than ever that 1 realized that the
wii ,ie purpose of this in eiview was
to ascertain if they cculd, without
telling me their intentions, ascer
tain who was the candidate, Hughes
or Wilson, who would be least dan
gerous to them if more American
vessels were sunk in ihe ruthless
submarine campaign they were
then contemplating.
The fact that they appealed to
me. a private individual with no
political connections, indicated that
they were very much concerned
about the coming election. Evi
dently they wanted to throw their
influence iiuo the scale, out were
at a loss to know which candidate
was the mere favorable from their
standpoint.
The election was drawing close;
it was necessary to notify von Bern
storff of Potsdam's preference; the
Kaiser believed tnat perhaps he
held the deciding Ballot in Ilia hand
in the shape of tne German-Amer
ican vote, and ha did".': know ho *■
to cast it. Hence the eagerness
with which they Interrogated me
upon ray return i'ro. I "he "front."
What conclusion tho Reichskan'-
sder drew from the moagj.- informa
tion he elicited from me I don't
know, but I do know that the sub
ject of our interview was discussed
the next day between him and the
Kaiser. The Berlin papers men
tioned that the Kaiser spent an
hour and a half in consultation
I with the Reichskanzler. The fol
lowing day the Kaiser came to me,'
and ono of the finst things he said.
I in, a sarcastic tone, was: "Well,
Davis, you were nicely treated on
your return to America, weren't
you?" referring to the severe exam
ination to which the officials had
subjected me at the dock, an inci
dent which I had spoken of to no
one in Germany but the Reichs
kanzler.
The interview with the Reichs
kanzler and the fact that it was in
stigated by the Kaiser indicated to
me that America occupied a most
I important place in the. Kaiser's
plans. When, a few months later.
|we declared war against Germany,
! however, all the Kaiser's planning
I and plotting of years collapsed. The
edifice he had been so confidently
erecting came crashing to the earth
because it was built upon a false
foundation. How elementary was
his explanation that his efforts to
win the friendship of the United
States in time of peace could avail
him anythipig in the face of his bar
baric methods of making war.

CHAPTER VI
The Kaiser Defends German War
Methods
The Kaiser was always very care
ful about everything which might
affect his health, and even after the
war started, when his attention was
naturally occupied by many press
ing problems, he did not neglect his
teeth, but came to be as regularly
as he had always done.
Of this I was very glad, because
it gave me an opportunity to draw
the Kaiser out on many of the in
teresting questions which the war
suggested and which I found him
always ready to discuss. Perhaps
the fact that I was! an American
led the Kaiser to greater lengths in
his justification of German war
methods and measures than he
might otherwise have thought nec
essary.
The first time I saw the Kaiser
after the war started was about
August 10, 1914. Between eleven
and twelve o'clock the night before
I had been notified by telephone
that the Kaiser would like me to
attend him at the Berlin palace the
following morning at 9 o clock. It
was the first time In my relations
with the Kaiser that I had been
asked to treat him outside of my
office, hut from that time on I at
tended him at a ni-mber of differ
ent plates—whenever liie. demands
cf the war happened to take him.
On this particular occasion, he was
about to make his first visit to the
front and wanted his teeth exam
ined before he went.
Explicit instructions were given
mo as \o the pai titular door and
court of \he palace I should enter.-
and evid -ntly tha sentries had been
notified of my coming, for I was
lapidly conducted into a room on
the ground floor.
I had been in the room but a
few moment when the door opened
and, without any previous an
nouncement. the Kaiser entered un
attended He was wearing the new
field-gray German uniform, in
which I then saw him for the first
time in my life. He wore no sword.
'Good morning, Davis," "he said,
"these are very serious times, aren't
they?" He seemed more sober than
1 had ever before seen him.
"Are the rooms here suitable for
you?" he asked. "If there is any
thing you wish, you have only to
ring the bell."
The room was rather dark, but I
told him that it would answer the
purpose very nicely. . ,
The work I had to do for him
was nothing of a serious character
and did not occupy more than
twenty minutes. One of his valets
stood by to give me any assistance
I might need, but left the room
when I was through.
"Have you been reading in the
papers. Davis." the Kaiser asked
when we were alone, "how our sol
diers have been treated by the Bel
gians?"
I said I had not had a chance
to read the papers that morning.
"Well, you must certainly read
them. They've been gouging out
the eyes of our wo,unded and muti
lating my men horiHbly! They call
it modern, civilized warfare. That's
savagery! I hope your President is
taking notce of these atrocities."
Of course I was in no position to
contradict the Kaiser's assertions,
as I was not in possession of any of
the facts, but I learned afterwards
that four American newspaper cor
respondents had scoured Germany
from one end of the country to the
other in an effort to run down these
reports. They left no rumor unin
vestigated, no matter how far they
had to travel to verify it. When they
had finally exhausted every clue and
followed every lead, they had not
found a single case to* justify the
charge the Kaiser had made against
the Belgians, and which, of course,
the inspired German press continued
to report from day to day.
The object of these lies was to
justify the outrages which the Ger
mans were committing in their plan
to terrorize the inhabitants of the
countries they were overrunning.
According to reports the activities
of l'ranc-tireurs in the occupied
territories were met by the Ger
mans with the most barbaric pun
ishments, crucifixion and similar
atrocities being very common. Un
doubtedly the Kaiser was aware of
what his soldiers were doing, and to
defend their conduct he lent a ready
ear to the unfounded charges made
against the Belgians.
"I have already framed a message
which I intend sending to your
President regarding the use of
dumdum bullets by the Belgians and
French," the Kaiser went on. "We
have ample proof to establish this
charge not only in the character of
the wounds suffered by my soldiers,
but in the shape of unused cart
ridges which we found in the cap
tured forts."
Strangely enough, the Kaiser sent
off his protest to President Wilson
about the same day that President
Poincare forwarded a similar pro
test based upon the use of dumdum
i bullets by the Germans.
Regarding the violation of Bel
gium's neutrality, the Kaiser was
able to offer no reasonable argu
ment. The fact that he was willing
to pay Belgium for permission to
allow his armies to go through that
country was apparently sufficient
justification in his eyes for taking by
force what Belgium refused to sell.
"How foolish of Belgium to have
resisted us!" he declared, in this
connection. "Had they consented
to let us walk through, we would
have paid them for everything—
everything! Not a hair of their
heads would have been touched, and
Belgium to-day would be in the
same happy financial condition that
Luxembourg is."
At a subsequent interview, we re
ferred to Belgium again, and the
Kaiser alleged that Japan had vio
lated the neutrality of China when
she sent troops through Chinese
territory to seize Kiao-Chau.
"It is all right for the allies to
do these things," he commented
sarcastically, "but when Germany
does them England rises up in
righteous indignation. The hypo
crites! Why we found papers in
Brussels which showed conclusively
that England and Belgium had a
secret agreement by which in the
event of war with Germany Eng
land was to be permitted to occupy
Belgium! We've got those papers in
Berlin. We could have no more
positive proof against them. The
Belgians were simply England's
tools!"
Just what papers the Kaiser re
ferred to, I don't know, but if. in
deed, any such agreement were ac
tually made and the Germans did,
in fact, succeed in obtaining, them,
las the Kaiser alleged, certain it is
I that the Germans did not know of
; their existence when they entered
j Belgium in violation of that nation's
i neutrality, and as far as Japan's con
, duct with respect to China is con-
Icerned, the Kaiser well knew that
the passage through Chinese terri
tory was not made in the face of
a solemn treaty to respect the neu
trality of that nation.
Some of the arguments the Kaiser
raised in his discussions with me re
garding the war were so weak and
untenable that one might well doubt
his sincerity in urging them, but I
shall give them for what they are
worth.
"They refer to us as the Huns!"
the Kaiser observed bitterly. "If
your people could see what the Rus
j siAns have done in the Bukowina
and Eastern Prussia, they would
J kn'ow then who are the real Huns!
I They destroyed everything they
could lay their hands on. In one
of my shooting lodges which the
Cossacks entered they even knocked
the teeth out of the boar's heads
which hung on the walls! With
knives they cut out the covers of
my chairs. They had special fire
bombs which they threw on peaceful
villages. These bombs had been
constructed in peace times and were
designed solely for pillage and de
struction.
"Instead of treating their soldiers
as prisoners of war we should have
strung them up by the neck—every
one of them."
Several prominent Poles, who J
AUGUST 20, 1918.
were patients of mine and whose
fine estates in Poland were looted
and demolished, told me positively
that the destruction and degrada
tions were committed entirely by
German troops. The Russians had
occupied the houses when they were
in possession of that section of the
country, but it was not until they
were driven out by the Germans that
the acts of vandalism were commit
ted, and they had convincing evi
dence that in every case the German
soldiers, and not the Russians, were
responsible.

know that they executed Captair
Fryatt, the commander qf a British
merchant vessel, who was captured
after he had rammed a German Ü
