I) ---- balance and, knocking her head vio- lently against the open front-door leading to the street, fell senseless on | the steps, An old gipey woman who happened to be passing sat down by the roadside, took the girl's head in- to her lap, and brought her back to consciousness. "There is no danger," she said, to the little Bugenie's alarmed mother; "the senorita will live to be a hun- dred years old, either more or less, and she will be a queen." The second part of the prophecy has certainly been fulfilled, and, in view of the fact that the aged em- press was ninety-three when she died the first part of the gypsy prophecy was not very far wrong. | ..Draga Mashin, the beautiful wo- m of the people, who afterwards became the Queen of Serbia, and was assassinated with her husband, King Alexander, was, before her marriage, dame d'homneur to Queen Nathalie, the young king's mother. On one oc- casion, when, with her royal mistress, she was visitingeParia, she went to consult the famous Parisian clairvoy- ante, Mme. Thebes. After holding the young maid-of-honor's hand for a long time in silence, the clairvoy- ante looked gravely at her and sald, hesitatingly: "You have great amkbi- tion; you will have an extraordinary career; you will marry the highest personage. in the country, but you will bring only ruin to your husband, and you yourself will perish with him." King George I. of England was told by a fortune-teller, when 'he wes a boy, 'that he should take care of his wife, "as he would only survive her a year." Whether he paid much heed to it is not known, but it is certainly a curious fact that, exactly twelve months after her death, he died, al- most suddenly, while on a visit to 'his brother, the Prince Bishop, at Osnahburg. In thé year 1671 a woman sooth- sayer, Marguerite Marie, of Paray-le- Monial," prophesied to Louts XIV. that after the year 1793 no crowned ruler would 'ever die ia his bed in HE people of this country do w.not seem to realize the im- portance and possibly ser- ious consequences to them- selves of the momentous issues which are-being decided In the struggle be- tween Poland and the Bolsheviks. If Poland 1s defeated in the present | struggle, it is no exaggeration to say that conscription will'have to be put into foree again in the Old Country within the next three months, and Germany will tear thie Peace Treaty to shreds. Germany, at present smarting but | not repentent under the pain of a! half administered thrashing, is thirsting for revenge and seeking for the means to carry out in other di- rections her former ambitious schemes of world conquest. In short, she is hoping to gain, via Mos- cow, what she failed to gain via Beriin. - There were two outstanding causes which contributed to the -de- feat of Germany in the late war. The one was the fact that our navy was able to obtain a strangle-hold over Germany by shutting out the sup- plies of raw material which she was $0 desperately in need of, and could | not produce herself. The second | was the scarcity of "cannou fodder." After nearly five years of fighting the man-power of Germany was not strong enough to stand the tremen- dous drain made upon fit. Therefore Germany 1s seeking for ways and means to make good these two weak points before embarking on another struggle for world empire. She wants an unlimited supply of raw material, and she wants millions of human beings naturally brave and blindly obedient. Where is she to find them? She has found them, By dint of almost diabolically clever Intrigues and propaganda she has France! The fateful year 1793, as turned what was her greatest danger ¢. ryvone knows, proved to be the inte her greatest asset.
