Nobody ever made such gaunt, romantic Imights, such deliciously dreadful beasts or such fat and terrible giants. But Gustave Dore made pictures that caught your attention, told thetr story and thrilled you the moment you looked at them—which, everybody knows nowadays, is a picayune kind of art. We have put our happy recollections of Dore on the shelf along with the tunes of Ttalian opera and other pleasant rubbish that we talk about only with the distinct understanding that we have outgrown it.

The wind had triumphed and swept all the clouds from heaven; only &@ few vapors as thin as moonlight floated rapidly across the stars. bitter cold, and by a common optical defect things seemed almost more definite than in the broadest daylight. Villon cursed his fortune, resistance, hard and soft, firm and loose. His heart gave @ leap and he sprang two steps back and stared dread- fully at the obstacle, Then he gave a little laugh of relief, It was only a woman, and she dead. He knelt beside her to make sure upon this latter point. She was freezingly cold and rigid like a stick. A lttle ragged finery fluttered in the wind about her and her cheeks had been heavily rouged that same afternoon. Her pockets were quite empty, but in her stockings, underneath the garter, Villon found two small coins, It was little enough, but it was always something, and the poet was moved with a deep sense of pathos that she should have died before she had spent her money. While these thoughts were passing through his mind he was feeling half mechanically for his purse. Suddenly his heart stopped beating, a feeling of | cold scales passed to the back of his legs and a cold blow seemed to fall upon his scalp. Villoi od and cursed. He threw the two coins into the atreet. He shook his fist at Heaven, Then he began to retrace his steps toward the house beside the cemetery. It was in vain he looked right and left in the snow; nothing waa to be seen. He returned to the hotel with the porch and groped about upon the snow for the money he had thrown away in his childish passion. But he could find only one coin; the other had probably struck sideways and sunk deeply in, With a single coin in his pocket all his prospects for a rousing night in some wild tavern vanished utterly away. And it was not only pleasure that fled laughing from his grasp; positive discomfort, positive pain attacked him as he stood ruefully before the porch.

A LITTLE eight-year-old boy was taken from his Albanian home, with his three brothers, in 1411, and was carried to imprison- ment in Turkey. He was George Castriot, son of a mountain princeling whose territory the Turks bad raided and annexed. The four boys were taken by the victors as hostages, George was clever and plucky and good looking. So while his brothers were kept in prison he was brought up to the life of a soldier and courtier. George had a genius for warfare. Before he had passed boyhood he had risen to high rank in the Turkish army. The Sultan changed his name to Iskander (Alexander)—or “Scanderbag"—and made him governor of a province. His three brothers were soon put to death by order of the @ul- tan. And, even as a lad, Iskander swore a terrible oath of vengeance against the slayers and against Turkey. ' ‘ He was far too clever to spoil his chances by showing the grief and mad resentment he felt. The Turks were yearly encroaching more and more upon Cl routing Christian armies, murdering thousands of peaceful men, and their victim’ wives and daughters into slavery. threatened to overrun all Europe, A Blow Iskander watched events closely, and whens the for Liberty. hour was ripe he struck.

For the next quarter century the war raged. Army after army was hurled into Albania from Turkey, and always Iskander drove back the in- vaders with heavy loss. Records of his time—possibly exaggerated—eag that he slew no less than 3,000 Turks, first and last, with his own hand. | For twenty-five yeara Iskander and his gallant little forces served as a barrier between Turkish invasion and Christian Europe. With a larger ‘army he might perhaps have conquered all Turkey.

And they in turn sold it back to Turkey, rendering useless the quarter century of heroic defense.
