He held it toward me with a little smile of complete understanding. "I couldn't —" I gasped. I was exhausted and the day had been a nightmare of trying to forget. , I wanted to cry. Mr. Mason came toward me and flung the flashing silk garment on the couch between us as he drew me down into its cushioning em brace and sank beside me, holding my cold hands in his strong clasp. His eyes were alight, and his voice vibrated as he spoke: "Donna Anna! Poor little tired lady. I want you to be happy in your new home. We're friends, aren't we? Don't be formal with me —run and put on the robe, little girl, and we'll have a cozy evening." There was nothing in his words perhaps to terrify, but absolute panic took possession of me. "I'm grateful. I thank you for all you have done to help," I said, with determination ringing in my voice. "I wouldn't be rude to one of Jim's friends for the world—but you must go." He smiled and loosed his clasp of my hands. "Go, put on the robe, little girl." "You must go!" I repeated in a voice I had to struggle to keep steady. And then, as he shook his head in slow, smiling negation, the tele phone bell rang, and Mr. Mason leaped to his feet.

THE KAISER AS I KNEW HIM FOR FOURTEEN YEARS By ARTHUR N. DAVIS, D. D. S. (Copyright, 1918, by the MeClure Newspaper Syndicate) (Continued.) He was very much interested, tor instance, in the experiments and discoveries of Luther Burbank. To make Germany self-supporting as far as food resources were con cerned was one of his dearest ambi tions He realized that in the event of a world-war his people would probably suffer more from lack of food than they would from hostile bullets, and he was hoping that he would be able to obviate that con dition before his country was put to the test. He was constantly preach ing simplified diet and the conserva tion of food reserves, and he had great hopes that much could be done in a scientific way to help solve gen eral food problems. When attending dinners given him by his officers, his wishes respecting simple menus were always carefully followed. A case of extremely large seed less oranges was sent to me from Florida one year, end 1 showed the Kaiser one of them It was so large he thought it was a grapefruit, and he expressed his admiration for the attainments of men who could thus coai nature into excelling herself for the common good. I told him of the loganberry which had been developed in the West, and he sent a representative to me afterward to ascertain how a sample could be secured for experi mental purposes. He said he would plant it in the Royal Experimental Gardens and ascertain if it was feasible to grow the berries in Ger many. The proprietor of a large delicatessen store told me that the Kaiser had sent a representative to him to purchase some loganberry jel'y, and had been told that I hadi called it to the Kaiser's attention. Before the war, I suggested to the' Kaiser that it might be of mutual advantage to my country and Ger many to arrange for an exchange of medical and dental professors, and he was very much taken with the idea. He sent Dr. von Illberg, his private physician and a doctor in the German army, to see me about the project, and I was asked to lay out a plan for consideration. At about the same time he asked me to recommend any changes that might occur to me that would add to the efficiency, of the wonderful dental institute at the University of Berlin. The breaking out of war, •jowever, put an end to these pio'- ects of peace. What a power for good the Kaiser might have been in the world but for his cursed thirst for world dominion. "he Kaise.- enjoyed American humor. He was very fond of Mark Twain, and he followed one or two of the American monthlies and weeklies more or less regularly. He told me that, one evening while in his sittingroom in the Berlin palace, reading something in an American magazine, he ran across a stor ywhici. caused h.m to laugh so much and so loud that the ladles of the court, who heard him in an adjacent room, came running in with their knitting to see What the matter was.

The Kaiser had little respect for 1 our architecture. He thought' our 1 skyscrapers, of which he had seen i illustrations, were hideous. 1 "How, terrible to desecrate the 1 landscape with such tall buildings," he commented. "They hurt the 1 e"ye. How can people live in them?" ' I explained that most of the J buildings to which he referred were , cffice buildings, but that we did have fourteen and fifteen-story apartment houses and hotels, and ' even higher ones, in which the upper , floors were used for living purposes , Just the same as the lower ones. He j couldn't believe it possible that peo- , pie would consent to live so far | ( above the ground, and from his own 1 aversion to visit a place that was I , even one story above the ground I ( floor, I rather got the idea that he was afraid of height. Under the building laws prevailing in Ger- ; many no building of more than five stories may be erected. Perhaps the quality that he en- j' vied most in us was our inventive j 1 genius. When Orville Wright was • j flying at Tempelhofer Field, in Ber- . lin, in the early days of aviation, the Kaiser could not restrain his admiration. "I wish I could encourage my people to become great inventors, I such as America has produced," he declared, rather hopelessly. I ad mire your wonderful inventive gen ius." If the Germans could not dupli- , cate our inventions, they were quick enough to realize their value and adopt them. Almost as soon as Wright's demonstration was seen to be a success, a company was organ ized in Germany to build them under | the Wright patent, and the Germans j have continued to push aviation ever since. Just before I left Germany I heard from one of the highest mili- | tary officials that they had Just per fected an airplane with six motors < that could accomplish more than I had ever been dreamed of. "It will carry twelve passengers," he said, "and it will carry enough fuel to make the trip to New York and | back and still have enough left to reach New York gain." Since my return home I have read that Just such a machine was shot down on j the French border recently. The Kaiser told me of an Amerl- I can, with both arms cut off nearly: to the shoulders, who had patented j an artificial arm and had come to j Germany to demonstrate it. He i wanted to sell his patent or manu- | facture the arms for the German wounded. The Kaiser invited him | to army headquarters and watched | him eat, clothe himself, shake hands, shave, light a cigaret and, in | fact, do almost everything that a j man can do with his own arms and hands. Evidently the Kaiser was | very much impressed with this' American's demonstration, for he; spoke to me about it for half an hour and was most enthusiastic. "It was very wonderful, Davis." he concluded. "Here is one of your countrymen who fcas made it possi- | ble for my armless men to make 1 themselves useful and self-support ing. Your people are always talk-1 ing about humanity, but this is the only humanity they've displayed in this war. That is what I call real j humanity. Certainly furnishing mu nitions and supplies to the Allies to enable them to starve my people | and shoot down my soldiers isn't: | humanity." Apparently the Kaiser believed it was our part in the world's economy to provide artificial arms and legs, and his to provide a demand for them! The Kaiser's peculiar interest in our red Indians was somewhat sur prising. He frequently asked me about them, and was particularly in terested in their diet. He had an Idea that they were for the most part vegetarians. Perhaps the fact STEEL WORKER HAD TO TAKE ANOTHER JOB Gets Help and Now Can Do Most Dangerous Work In order to prevent injury to him, , his employeis had to change the -vork of Hairy Markley, of Steel- 1 ton, an employe of the Bethlehem 1 Steel Company. "I was so dizzy," said Mr. Mark ley, "that I was in danger every minute and it all came from my stomach. I had an awful taste in my mouth and my tongue was I badly coated. Friends in the ma chine shop of the plant told me to try Tanlac. I did so and soon the dizzy spells disappeared and I could safely do the most dangerous work.j assigned to me. Tanlac cleaned my system 'as clean as a hound's tooth' 1 and I can now eat anything set out to me." Tanlac is now being specially in troduced and explained in Harris- I burg at the George A Gorgas Drug Store. i that he was not much of a meat eater himself aroused his interest in the primitive Americans who seemed to thrive on vegetable diet. While the Kaiser ate a certain amount of white meat, he never ate dark or red meat, and at night he made his meal almost entirely of fruit. He was fond of fish and said it pro duced brain, as it is a fine brain food, adding laughingly, "It is too bad the majority of people don't eat fish entirely!" Colonel Wisser, our former mili tary attache, now general, told me that at a state banquet the Kaiser placed his son, Prince Eitel Fred erick, next to him [the colonel], and that the Prince spoke of nothing else during the entire function but American methods of open fighting, which we long ago learned in ooir conflicts with the Indians. He said they had heard much of our success in this character of warfare and were anxious to learn more about our methods. The Kaiser objected very much to the fact that many of the foreign opera singers were attracted to New York by reason of the fabulous sums paid them at the Metropolitan Opera House.

I love him and he has confessed his love for me with a promise of mar riage. He has never introduced me to his father; his mother is not living, but I have met his brother and sister outside his home. 1 see him on Thursday evenings for perhaps an hour and on Saturday and Sunday evenings. He tells me of going to parties and theaters on his oft nights with other friends. 1 should like to know if he is doing right in not tak ing me to his home, and should he visit me oftener or am I selfish to expect more of him. Do you really think he cares for me as he says? I suppose when you say 'in the service you mean that your fiance is either in the Army or Navy, and it is a surprise to me that he has as much time for visiting as you state. Young men of my acquaintance in either of these two branches of the service have felt themselves lucky to get an evening off much less fre quently. So perhaps you mean that he belongs to some of the civilian bands of war workers, which would account for his amount of leisure. I think really that three evenings a week ought to content you. Do you 7 make those three evenings agreeable or are you inclined to be exacting and demand an accounting for all the time that he is not with you? Nothing is a surer way of losing a man's affections than to try to hold him on too short a leash. There may be family reasons why he does not ask you to his home immediate ly. 1 should not press the matter if no date has been set for your mar riage.
