It is buried so deeply in the In- dian Ocean and touched by so few ships that most world travelers never reach it. The owners of large plantations for the production of sugar-cane, vanille, cocoa and es- pecially rum, who might be ex- pected to form an lisland society, prefer to reside in Europe and ace cept smaller, returns. For the time being Abd-el-Krim, deep In his historical and literary work, does not seem to hanker for the lightgr diversions.

To their dismay, the Duchesse | d'Orleans had no children for & eral years after her marriage; then a daughter was born who, of course, was of no use as an heir. W year later the Duc and Duchesse | d'Orleans went on a visit to Italy Contrary to their usual custom, the: took no suite with them and travel- ed very quietly. After three months the Duc returned to Paris and an- nounced that his wife was in bad | health and was remaining in a quiet \village In Italy with her maid, so as to have complete rest. Some months later the Duchesse d'Orleans re- turned to Paris with a baby boy of two months, which she said was hers. He had been born in the little Italian village with no official French people present, as was nec- essary by French law in the case of the:French royal house.

Louise Philippe’s younger brothers (the real sons of the House of Or- leans) died of tuberculosis in exile, and only Princess Adelaide and Louis Philippe were left. Of course we know he eventually married Princess Amelle of Naples, return- ed to France as Duc d'Orleans, after 1830 became King of the French, had a large family, and fled from France in 1845.
