What is to be the attitude of the country and particu- larly of the Republican Party for the next eight days? | We mean the WHOLE Republican Party, not Henry Cabot and his following in the Senate. 3 There was a time not long ago when the G. 0. P. boasted several a - wminent spokesmen besides the senior Senator from Massachusette. » (Where are the others now? All mute, inglorious, forgotten? a There is one distinguished Republican to whom other Republi- "Gane used to listen with deep respect. He was once President of the | United States. His name is William Howard Taft. Mr. Taft made a speech on the evening of March 4 last in the Wy politan Opera House, in this city. The cheers that greeted t Taft and his speech that night came from a great gathering at | half Republican. On that occasion Mr. Taft said: “No higher duty ever was laid upon the United States than 2 now at this critical juncture in the world’s affairs to unite with ¢ the nations with whom it has won the war in arms and brought 7 Germany to her knees, to keep her in that suppliant attitude, | ‘ and save her and Europe from the chaos and despair of further id ‘war and the inevitable triumph of Bolshevism. nite “There must be the united force of a League of Nations to stabilize conditions and hold them until the new nations created for the purpose shall have the strength with which they can j play their part in making the treaty of peace effective. “Well may the President say, when he returns with the | . treaty, of which the covenant shall be a most important and ! «am indispensable part: | “If you would postpone peace, if you would defeat it, you ‘| ean refuse to ratify the treaty. Amend it by striking out the eee covenant and you will leave confusion worse confounded, with * » the objects of the war unattained and sacrificed and Europe and ei ——sthe world in dangerous chaos.’ Do the words ring less true in Republican ears at the present it? Is their warning less sound or just because Senator Lodg: his gang of treaty-wreckers SUCCEEDED in’ their attempt t: ! ilify the covenant and made ratification of the peace treaty im ite = id tant state impossible? oa Has Lodge Republicanism—the treaty-wrecking brand—taken | sepmplate possession of the Republican l’arty?

The only “personal story of achievement” as yet unpublished by our enter- prising twenty-cent magazines is the true tale entitled: “How I Succeeded—By Stamping on Some Men's Faces and Licking Other Men's Boots.” Some women like to earn their living, and others to earn alimony.

Her contemps stirred Marsac to retort: “Mademoiselle, such as I am I have fought for France! Some 7, you may learn that there are viler things in the world than a poor gen- tleman!” ‘i Henry of Navarre heard of the visit and offered Marsac the only em- ployment then in his power—a perilous mission for the Cause. He ex- plained to Marsac the desperate nature of this mission and its great im- portance, which ge la Vire was in possession of certain secrets, it seemed, wile cele vies oe Henry of Navarre wished her to tell in ci i erson to the King of France—secrets King Orders Him Which would make the French King turn to Kidnap Maid. from the influences which were estranging him from the King of Navarre and which would strengthen the latter's future claim to the French throne. But Mile. de la Vire was the ward of the all-powerful Vicomte de Turenne, Henry of Navarre's strongest ally—and rival. It would not do to let Turenne know of the matter lest he wreck Henry's chances. There- fore Mursac must seem to kidnap Mademoiselle and to spirit her away to the French King’s court at Blois in such a manner that Turenne should think.only that he had eloped with her. Turenne would, of course, pursue, and if Marsac should fall into his hands, Henry of Navarre would not dare protect him and thus win the enmity of Turenne. Marsac accepted the strange mission, And at once troubis set in When Mademoiselle saw who her escort was to be she recoiled in disgust from the shabby soldier. At every step of the journey she showed her dis- lie and contempt for Marsac, He was unlike any of the gaudy and shal- low courtiers who hitherto had filled her spoiled young life. Yet Marsac treated her contempt as he would have treated the soold- ings of a child. This was the harder for him to do, since he found himself falling in love with her—he, the down-at-heel adventurer; she the heiress and woman of title. For a time the man’s gentle patience only increased her dislike toy him, Then gradually she began to see Wed Brave Soldier —_‘h®_sallant spirit and chivalry that lay ~ behind his shabby exterior.

Thus by the time the mission was successfully accomplished Mile. de la Vire was as deep in love with Gaston de Marsac as was he with ber. They knew their love was hopeless, since Henry of Navarre would nob dare offend Turenne so long as the King of France should live. But the assassination of the French King, soon after his reconciliation with Henry, made the King of Navarre the rightful King of France. No longer needing to curry favor with Turenne, Henry brought pressure to bear on the Vicomte and made Turenne consent to Mademoiselle’s mar- riage with the brave soldier who won her heart. And he made Marsac high official in the French Court that he might have a position and tune equal to his bride's.
