Berlin.—While as to ordinary affairs | the kaiser is subject to the law in the same manner as his humblest sub- Ject, there is one department in which his power is practically absolute—his power as commander in chief of the empire’s armed forces. His supremacy in this regard has just been reaffirmed by a judgment of the Kammergericht affirming the judgment of a provincial court in an action brought to protect a patent right. Eight years ago the kaiser issued an order directing the introduction of saber carriers attached to cavalry saddles. A Berlin inventor declared the saber carriers to be an infringe- ment of his patent, and that they Kaiser Wilhelm. .| could not be used without his permis- ¢ | sion, and he brought an action for damages and an injunction against the carrying out of the imperial order. ! A provincial court found against | ihlm and the Kammergericht has at- firmed this judgment. The Appellate lconrl declared that, irrespective of 1“holh r the patent be infringed or not, the plaintiff has no standing and | | that the kaiser in issuing any order A (‘mxu 1ing the equipment of the army ! cxercising his supreme military | ‘ pom r, and his orders are not subject !

Running home, she found the child with cloth- ing ablaze crouching by a cot under which lay the sevenmonths old baby. To save her daughter and protect the baby, Mrs. Boeckel snatched up the little girl and ran with her into the yard, where she 1ore away her burning clothing. Meanwhile the mattress upon the cot had caught fire, but Miss Lillie Powell, from next door, came to the rescue in time to save the helpless baby. The little girl had obtained the matches by climbing on her high chair and reaching up to the window ledge, where the box was kept.

JUNE 9, 1913. ‘ I R RO A Y S HER SHORT ROMANCE By CELIA MYROVER ROBINSON. | s e e ———T— I Melissy walked slowly down the road, swinging her sunbonnet in her hand, letting the little breezes stir the soft hair about her face, and drink- ing in the pungent breath of the pines. Melissy's dream was very sweet and very bitter. She had been only a girl —DMelissy was thirty-four now—when she had had her short romance, There had never been a man at Rix- ton Corners could compare with Hi- ram. Melissy thought him the hand- somest and cleverest of men. And he thought Melissy as beautitul as she was good, and Hiram had felt there was no higher praise than that. It was on an evening of just such an April day that Hiram had first kissed her and she had promised to be his wife. But the long, sweet summer had not passed before Hiram had grown cold and captious, changing so much that Melissy hardly knew him for the same ardent lover of a few months back. "The girl was high-spirited— the broken woman smiled, sadly, as she remembered this—and on one day of anger and rebellion she had sent Hiram away and he had never come back to her again. He had left The Corners, and dur- ing all the long years since, Melissy had never heard from him. Vague rumors had reached her, however, that he had gone to Florida and had made money in turpentine, The camp meeting grounds were & good three miles from The Cor ners, and Melissy was very tired by the time she had covered half the way. She sat down by the road- side in the shade of a big oak, fan- ning with the pink sunbonnet, rest- ing the tired limbs awhile before go- ing on again. The sun was very hot by this time, and the pungent breath of wild honeysuckles and the heavy fragrance of yellow jessamine made | Melissy's head ache, She leaned ibluck against the mossy trunk with closed eyes, listening to the mocking- bird up in the oak and thinking of Hiram-—and wondering why life | was so hard, and why he had changed so towards her. Melissy had | been too proud to ask for an explana- , tion—Meclizsy felt now that she would | not be too proud, if Hiram were only here. A half hour later a man driving down the dusty road at a rapid pace { drew up his horses sharply, with an u'j:lculminu of surp The figure : in the blue cotton dress leaning back { against the great oak was so still, and the sweet face framed in the | heavy masses of wavy brown hair | was so white that he thought at first i sho was dead. But at the clatter of | ¢the team and his own strong voice Melissy’s slumber was broken and | she sat up, looking dazed and a lit- | tle disheveled, and rubbing her eyes [ like a slecpy child. Then she laughed and her face turned pink as she encountered the look on the ! bearded face. She put on her sun- bonnet, hastily, and somehow began to feel Aery girlish and timid. It bhad been a long time since Melissy had encountered that look in any- one's eyes, but she had been a belle for too many years not to know when she had struck a spark of ad- miration. “I—I believe I must have fallen asleep,” she said, a little nervously. “I believe you did,” sald the man, laughing. “It was so hot,” said Mellssy, “and I am so tired. I am on my way to camp meeting and I got plum beat out with the heat.” “It's getting pretty hot,” sald the man. “I reckon it wasn't the heat so much,” said Melissy, “but I've been right poorly this winter. This is the first time I've becn out for a long walk since January.” “You ought not to have trled to walk it,” said the man. “You aren't strong enough. It's a good three miles, at least, from your place.” Melissy looked surprise. “Land!” she said, “how do you know? I thought you were a stranger in these parts,” and she looked with interest at the fine team and shiny trap, and the tall, well-dressed figure. “Melissy,” said the man, his voice hoarse and shaken, “don’t you know me?” Melissy face turned as white as the little wilted roses ifn her belt. For a moment she stood quite still, like a frightened child. Then she gave a glad cry: “Oh, Hiram, Hiram' 1It's been so long,” and burst into bitter sobbing. Hiram took her in his arms and wiped away the tears, “It has been long, Melissy,” he said, “but we’'ll fill our lives so full of happiness we'll foget the sorrow. Do you remember the dreams you used to have of seeing the world, Me- lissy? Well, we'll see it together, dear. I've made plenty of money, and I've come back to beg you to forgive me for my pride and jeal- ousy.” “I never could understand—" be- gan Melissy. Hiram stopped her with a kiss, I thought you cared for Dock Gib- son. It was Amariah Ilill who told me. She said you were a flirt. I was too proud to tell you, and, anyhow, { promised not. And you did flirt a lit- tle, you know, Melis “Oh, Hiram—" began Melissy. But Hiram kissed her into silence again. (Copyright by Daily Story Pub, Co.)
