He answered me with a quiet and sympathetic glance. "How can you write the clone or your life? You may live many years. many happy years, Mot-her. With to birth of my little Frederick, whom will train to adore his grandmother, a new chapter is begun for you.” “Yes. the virord ‘end’ under my bio- graphy is justified. When I conceived the idea of writing it, I determined to stop with the lst of February, 1871. It you had been torn from _me for ser. vice in the fleidâ€"luck’zy during the Bosnian campaign you were 'not old enoughâ€"I might havle been obliged to lengthen my book. As it is, it was painful enough to write.” “And also to read,” answered Ru- dolf. turning over the leaves. “I hope so. If the back shall cause such pain in the reading as to awaken a detestation of the source of all the unhappiness here described, I shall not have tormented myself in vain.” “Have you examined all sides of the question, Mower?" said my son. "Have you exhausted all the argu- ments, analyzed to the roots the spirit of war, and sufficiently brought out the scientific: objections to it?" “My dear, what are you thinking of? I have only written of my life. All sides of the question? Certainly not. What do I, the rich woman or high rank, Y'now of the sorrows’which war brings to the mass of the poor?

To banish this dark picture, several guests made the comforting remark that present circumstances promised a long peace. that the Triple'Alliance â€"and with that general interest war carried into the political arena, and our Cabinet Minister led the conver- sation. The glasses rattled but the speech fell flat. That this little creature just on the threshold of life should be sentenced to the death-list on a battle- field did not make a pleasant 1m- presslon. . i “To. sum a toast 1 will notdrink," l rephcd.
