A German Peace . In the reply of the central European powers to the pope's peace note there is nothing to be found which advances a reasonable hope of peace'. Germany offers to submit to an international agreement for reduction of armament and for arbitration of disputes. Austria-Hungary embraces this program with the devotion of a state which has suffered enough from a war which it and Germany would not, when they could, prevent by submission of the issues to arbitration. There is piety and love of. mankind, desire for amicable relations with other nations and expressed willingness to limit international competition to the friendly wrestling which strengthens character and exalts the soul all these qualities and more in the replies of the central pow

ers, but nowhere any indication of fundamental change in thought, principles, or conditions within, the two empires. Early in 1914 German willingness to limit the military force would have been accepted with relief. That was when nations feared that the struggle to attain or maintain superiority in the field would result, with a certainty which could be relied upon absolutely, in a decision by war. The decision is being had now after appeals

for reduction and for arbitration of disputes had been put aside. If Germany's opponents cannot

be persuaded of the sincerity of the proposals

which have been given suggestion in the replies

to the pope it cannot be regarded as astonishing.

Agreements rest safely upon only the mood, character, principles, and emergencies of peoples,

and the peoples in arms against Germany and

Austria cannot find indications that German moods, character, principles, and emergencies have essentially changed. Therefore they cannot safely they must feel put .their trust in agreements decorating a condition called peace which merely exposed them to another attack when conditions were favorable for it. - . They can distrust themselves as well as Germany. They may know or fear that they would sink back into the repose, thoughtlessness, and inactivity which characterized them before they saw clearly what threatened from behind Ger

man boundaries.The British and Americans must know their own habit of overconfidence, lack of suspicion, indifference, and inertia. If they let go now, when they are aroused, without accomplishment which safeguards the future, the future may find them again exposed to a policy which seeks to injure or destroy them. The great German war accomplishment was to destroy all confidence in German sincerity. Chicago Tribune.

Revelations of a Wife BY ADELE GARRISON

What Shall She Do? 1 The theatre was -almost filled by this time. A large man with a. full, florid face, coming down our aisle, halted Just in front of our seats to greet an acquaintance. Dicky nudged me, and I looked at the man closely, especially noticing his lavish display of jewelry. "You've seen one of the first night sights," whispered Dicky, as the man passed on. "That '8 Diamond Jim Brady. His specialties are diamonds and first nights, and nobody knows

which he likes the better."

Dicky appeared to know a number of people in the audience. A half-doz

en men and two or three women bow

ed to him. He told me about each

one. Two were dramatic critics, others artist and actor friends. Each one's name was familiar to me through the newspapers. "You'll know them all later, Madge," he said, and I felt a glow of pleasure in the anticipation of meeting such interesting people. Dicky returned to his sketching, and I sat idly watching the people between me and the stage. A few seats in front of us to the left I caught sight of the woman who had claimed

Dicky's acquaintance in the lobby. She was signalling greetings to a number of acquaintances in a flamboyant fashion. She would bow elaborately, then lift her hands above her head and shake them together as if shaking hands with the person 6he greeted. She saw me almost as soon as I discovered her, and raised herself in her seat and craned her neck, to see

what Dicky was doing. He raised his head at that moment and saw her, and she went through the elaborate pantomime for his benefit, raising up

her program and looking through it as if through a field glass, pretending to

sketch on her own program, and in-

ally shaking her head at Dicky in

mimic disapproval.

"Confound that woman, shell spoil

the whole game," growled Dicky. As he spoke he laid his finger on his lips

and shook his head. With a last

merry glance she turned her attention to another acquaintance, while Dicky gave a sigh of relief. - "Who is she, Dicky? I tried to make my voice careless. "I did not catch her name when you Introduced

us. .

"You'll probably see enough of her so you won't forget it," returned Dickj grinning. "She's one of the busiest little members of the 'Welcome to our city committee in the set I train most with. She wont rest till you've met all the boys and girls and been properly lionized. She Is one of the best little scouts going.

and, if she'd cut out the war paint and modulate that Comanche yell she calls her voice there would be few women to equal her for brains or looks." "But you haven't told me yet what her name is," I persisted. "Well, in private life she's Mrs. Harry Underwood that's Harry with

her but she's better known all over the country as the cleverest producer of illustrated Jingles for advertising we have. Remember that Simple Simon parody for the mincemeat advertisement we laugheed over some time ago, and I told you I knew the woman who did it? here she is before you,"

and Dicky waved his hand grandiloquently. "Lillian Gale!" I almost gasped the name. "The same," rejoined Dicky, and returned again to his sketching, while I sat in amazed horror, with all my oldtime theories crumbling around me. For I had read of Lillian Gale and

her married troubles. I knew that Harry Underwood was her second husband and that she had been divert ed from her first spouse after a scandal which had been aired quite fully in the newspapers. She bad not been proved guilty, but her skirts certainly had been smirched by rumor. According to the ideas which had been mine, Dicky should have shrunk from having me even meet such a woman, let alone planning to have me on terms of intimacy with her. What should I do?

And while they watched, and the Khinjan men were beginning to murmur (for they needed no last view of the place to satisfy any longings!) none else than Ismail rose from behind a rock nd came to King's stirrup. He tugged and King backed his horse until they stood together apart.

"She sends this message," said Ismail, showing his teeth in the most peculiar grin that surely the Hills ever witnessed. And then, omitting the message, he proceeded first to give some news. "Many of her men, who have never been in the army, are none the less true to her, and she will not leave them to the mullah's mercy. They will leave the Caves in a little while, and will come up here. They are to go down into India and be made prisoners if the sirkar will not enlist them. You are to wait for them here." ! "Is that all her message?" King asked him. ' "Nay. That is none of it! This is her message. Thou shalt know this dav, thou Englishman, whether or not she' truly loved thee! There shall be proof 6uch as even thou shall- understand!" "What does that mean?" "Nay. who am I that I should know? Ismail slipped away and lost- himself among the men, and none of them seemed to notice that he had been away and had come again. On King's advice a dozen men climbed near-by eminences and began to watch for the mullah's coming. The Khinjan men murmured openly; they wanted to be off.

"But no," said King. "Go if ye will, but she has sent word that other men

are coming. I wait for them Here.

After a great deal of resentful argument they consented to lie hidden for an hour or two "but no longer," and King hid his horse in a hollow and persuaded three of them to gather ass for him. It was a little more

than an hour after dawn and the chilled rocka were beginning to grow warmer when the head of a procesBion came out of Khinjan Gate and started toward them over the valley. In all more than five hundred men emerged and about a hundred women

and children, and King's men were kept busy for half an hour counting them and quarreling about the exact number. Some of them were burdened heavily, and there was much discussion as to whether to loot them or not. Then: . . . "Muhammad Anim comes! shouted a voice from a crag top. They snuggled into better hiding, and there was no thought now of leaving before the mullah should go by.

There began to be wagers as to whether her men would be hidden out of sight before the mullah could top the rise; and then, when the last man was safe across the valley and up the cliff and in hiding, there was endless

argument as to how much each had betted and to whom he had lost. It needed an effort to cuiet them when

the mullah rose into view at last above the rise and paused for a minute to stare across at Khinjan before leading hos four thousand doyn and onward. He was silent as an image, but his men roared like a river in

flood and he made no effort to check

them. He was like a man who has

made up his mind to victory or four moves ahead of this one, and to hold this one such a foregone conclusion in his mind that it hod ceased to interest. He was admirable, there was

no doubt of that. In his own way, like an old boar; sniffing up the wind for trouble, he could command a decent man's respect.

He dismounted, for he had to, and

tossed his reins to the nearest man with the air of an emperor. And he led the way down the cliffside without hesitation, striding like a mountaineer.

His men followed him noisily, holding hands to make humeri chains at the difficult places and shouting a great deal; but not quite naturally ndw. They weje too impressed by the seriousness of what they undertook, and in their hearts too-"touch afraid. The noise was bravado. It was a weary wait, watching from the crevices until the last man's back departed don the cliff, and the processionPled Piper of Hamelin and rate (but no music) wound across the valley. At last Khinjan Gate was opened and the mullah led in. The gate did not shut after the last man, King noted that. To be continued
