not Interested in the princess, and I didn't have the nerve to usk many ques­tions. I do know, however, that she is going to have an unpleasant matrimo­nial alliance forced upon her in some way."

"That is usual." "That's what I gather from the

countess. Maybe you can pomp the countess and get all you want to know In connectidn with the matter. It's a pretty teriona state of affairs, I anould say.or she wouldn't be weeping through sympathy."

the people of Graustark must pay 25,-Ooo.oiKi garvos. The time is at hand, and that is why we recall the war so vividly. It means the bankruptcy of the nation, gentlemen."

Neither of his listeners spoke for some moments. Then Lorry broke the silence.

"You mean that the money cannot be raised?" lie asked.

"It is not in our treasury. Our peo­ple have been taxed so sorely in re­building their homes and in recuper­ating from the effect of that dreadful invasion that they have been unable to pay the levies. You must remem­ber that we are a small nation and of limited resources. Your nation could secure $30,000,000 in one hour for the mere asking. To us it is like a death­blow, fcaim Dot betraying a state se­cret in telling you of the sore straits in which we are placed, for every man in the nation has been made cognizant of the true conditions. We are all fac­ing it together."

There was something so quietly he­roic in his manner thafboth men felt pity. Anguish, looking at the military figure, asked:

"Yon fought through the war, your excel lenfls-?"

"I resigned as minister, sir, to go to the front I was in the first battle and I was in the last" be said simply.

"And the princess—the present ruler, I mean—was a mere child at that time. When did she succeed to the throne?" asked Lorry.

ful account given Uy-Uio lady, that the princess had it In her power to save (Jraustark from disgrace and practical destruction. The I'rince of Axpbain's son. Lorcnz. was deeply enamored of her, infatuated by her marvelous beau­ty and accomplishments. He had per­suaded his father to consider a matri­monial alliance with her to be one of great value to Axphaln. The old prince, therefore, soma months before the arrival of the Americans in Grau­stark sent to the princess a substitute ultimatum, couched In terms so polite and conciliatory that there could be no mistaking his sincerity. He agreed to give Graustark a new lease of life, as It were, by extending the fifteen years or. In other words, to grant the con­quered an additional ten years in which to pay off the obligations im­posed by the treaty. He furthermore offered a considerable reduction In the rate of Interest for the next ten years. But be had a condition attached to this good and gracious proposition—the lnmr. ringe of Graustatk's sovereign. His ambassador set forth the advantages of such an alliance, and departed with a message that the matter should have most serious consideration.

The old prince's proposition was a blow to the princess, who was placed in a trying position. By lajcflfidiif herself she could save her country, but la so doing- her life i f a to be plunged Into interminable tlstfiiiiai She did not tore nor did who was not favoratfr sappUsd with

lows about squabs: In breedinf sqBabs do not select any

IrH the larger squabs. Pigeons can be raised successfully In

confinement if a large fly Is used and they are provided with all require­ments. If pigeons are allowed their lib­erty it costs about 8 cents to raise a squab to four weeks old, but if confined It will more than double the cost Pi­geons are not destructive to crops un­less they are compelled to bunt their food. Well fed birds never destroy stacks or any kind of grain crops.

Many disapprove of feeding from a hopper, but I have one and keep it well filled. If you have plenty of cats, mice will not Infest the feed quarters.

Feed principally wheat and corn. Do not change the feed too much, although peas, millet and buckwheat may be fed alternately If one feels so disposed. A good plan Is to feed on the ground la good weather, but on Samp, rainy days it is always preferable to feed from a hopper. The old birds feed their young.

The age of squabs ready for market is four weeks, although oftentimes they will do at three. To prepare them for market bleed from the month and pick clean to the crown of the head, plunge into cold water to plump ^heni and re­move the beat, wash and tie in bunches of three.
