\ ANOTHER PRINCE W c AMERICAN BwbsRh^' gp +>*;>;* NKVV YORK,?Who says that American girls win hearts by their money ami not by tlieii beauty? Whoever says ho speaks contrary to truth, for facts prove that American charm can win out even when Mammon has no power to sway the balance. If any one doubts this let him read the following fct/jrv: Not rfetny months ago his Imperial majesty of Germany relegated his sixth and youngest son to the solitude of Egyptian lands, "for the bihietit of his health," said the discreet. The only indisposition from which his royal highness suffered, however, was his royal father's displeasure. And that was incurred under circumstances which proved not the prince's iniquity but his good nature. Prince Joachim is young and no milksop. He had a friend who was even less of a milksop. This friend, in straitened circumstances, as the story is told, secured the prince's indorsement of a note for $10,000, which, however, he was not able to meet when the time fell due. The result was that Prince Joachim left the Strassburg university suddenly i last March and was sent into banish ; ment which was intended to bo punishment for an indefinite period. Hut j the Fates, more kindly than the fa ther, ordained otherwise. Last Faster the principal of the Willar.i school. Merlin, determined to send the pupils on a vacation trip. The girls were placed under the charge of Dr. Luce, and Dr. Luce chose Kgypt as the scene of the visit. Faster. 1913, came in March. Prince Meets American Girl. Among the pupils of the Willard school was a young American girl named Olive Huntington of Norwich. Conn. it happened that Dr. Luce's party met Prince Joachim and his suite. In fact, they were very much thrown together. The Fates began to get less busy. All they had to do > now was sit ana look on, for history goes to indicate that with the advent of a young lady from the II. S. A., entertaining the Oerman prince would be a matter of small difficulty. Whoever reads with even cursory interest the annals of the kaiser's sons will readily recall the names of American girls who, at different periods, caused no small heartburning and anxiety in the imperial palace. Yes. of course VOII pomuniKi.r name of IVacon and the history of the infatuation of no less a personage than tlie crown prince himself, an infatuation so deep as to inspire terror into the hearts of his royal parents. Miss Deacon, however, allayed their fears and earned the eternal gratitude of the kaiser. Other Charmers Involved. Hut the end of his troubles was not yet, however. In 191" rumor connected the name of Miss Alma Orithwein of St. I.ouis, Mo., with that of Hrince Adalbert, third and most often turnedllnu n nf * ?>" / II - "'II ? "IV iiiiju'imi nillllll. 1 liny were convalescing in the same nana torium near Augsburg, i'.avarla. The rumor died and was no more heard of. Hut America's daughters were yet to cross the path of the Emperor William. Next came Miss Mildred Devereux to the German capital and shortly after < followed the surrender of Prince Joachim to her charms Hut his royal high ness was not mortally wounded in this encounter, and his susceptibilities were not tested by any more American beauties until his royal father sent him Into exile and the WllWrd school conspired with the Fates i i \ 4 f DOYAL <\CES EYES f/7 to turn the exile Into a pleasant vacation in March of thlH year. Olive Huntington is young?she is , not yet nineteen years old. She is j ' also petite and pretty. I>ark. liquid eyes glean) out of a face whose ! creamy complexion Is the envy of nil who behold her. Add to these pr.?nts ' a wealth of brown hair, an attractive ; manner and a fund of wit. Then place the owner of these charms in 1 a group of solid daughters of the fatherland?a fatherland just then frowning on an exiled son. Loyal (lerman as he was, l'rince Joachim can scarcely be blamed for preferring the spnrkling gem to its heavy setting. Hut Olive is more than beautiful. She is daring. Kven royal princes cannot overawe her. and this particular royal prince had more than one reason for delighting in her im pertinent hut witty comments on his sedate countrymen. Many Claims to Admiration. , Hut Olive had still further attrac- , ns for the young exile. She dances j 11. and Prince Joachim likes danc Moreover, she plays tennis, and , ry one knows the story of how j * kaiser's third son lost his heart , : 1 was likely to lose his rank for a , nis player. , Then Olive is a sweet, kind-hearted | , i. Witness the fact that though j major share of the attentions of i?? young men of Norwich, Conn., j ! ai always fallen to her lot she has I I never aroused the jealousy of her girl friends. On the contrary, they arc > numerous and sincere. Then, she is accomplished. She can draw and paint. Hut that is not all. Herman girls may be as insistent as they please in advancing their claim to 1 precedence in the world of housekeepers, but who ever heard of a New Knglnndor who would yield place to them? Olive is true to the tra ditions of the distaff side of her fain ily. And Olive is a Huntington!- a ('banningHuntington! If those names do not at once inspire you with awe look up the annuls of the American nobility and you will realize your own shortcomings in the matter of history Besides,the Huntingtons were "somebody" even before the Mayflower carried them to these shores in 1633. Joachim Has Talent. But what of Prince Joachim? Had he nothing to offer for 'he favor of the young American girl? Well, the daughters of the 1' S. A are supposed to admire, above all. men who are practical. Who could, be more so than a I lobenzollern ? i iiis royai iamny oops not rely on mere rank If a revolution should x upset the throne of their fathers tomorrow not one of the kaiser's six sons hut could earn his living Prince ' Joachim might he a smith' Hut he is much more likely to choose the 1 career of a musician, and he would ' be no Insigniflcnnt one. either. Only f last June a phantasy of his in K minor was performed with marked success at Carlsbad. Again, not many years ago, there was talk of sending ^ him in for competition at the Olympic t games, for the prince is also an atli I lete. Hut why enumerate his various | claims to beauty's regard? Suffice It i is to say that he inherits from his | ancestors those qualities, both physl- t cal and mental, that helped them to t make a great kingdom out of a small ( electorate and a consolidated empire \ cut of a host of struggling and squab s bling principalities. And who could r expect or deserve more? I Dan Cupid at Work. < Well, whether these young people 1 were attracted by each other's many j t and estimable qualities Is doubtful. \ It is much more probable tbat ml?-j chlevous Dan Cupid was performing one cf his usual tricks and shooting ! his arrows where he thought they would be likely to cause most trouble. This time, however, be was doomed to disappointment, for there was no trouble. No parents were distracted, no boy and girl lovers heartbroken. The kaiser did not need to play the stern parent nor the kaiser in to lose her sleep. To be sure. Miss Olive 1 liinttn*??nn - I and her family would not be overwhelmed by the idea of an alliance with even a Holienzollern. even if such a question should arise. After all. that family was only beginning to be known in 16311. A century was yet to elapse before they assumed the rank of royalty. And even if I'ncle Sam confers no titles he nevertheless has an aristocracy, and an exclusive one, too. However, such problems did not bother either the twenty-two year-old prince or his little Yankee friend. They were the best of chums and they enjoyed the Kastern vac very, very much. Humor says were very sad at parting and isn't sad at the end of a good t However that may be. Prince chiin returned to the fat he "much benefited in health." Olive Huntington returned to s and is now about to revisit h? tive country both heart whole fancy free That the youth of wich. Conn . will be neither on the other in a very short time, ever, is a matter of small doubt, they have a high standard to i set as it is by a Herman prlx.ee ? New York World. TWO HIGH FAMILIES UNITED Native Rulers of Indian States Subject to British Rule Become Allied by Marriage. Two of the most powerful native ruling families of British India were united when Princess Indira, only daughter of the reigning maharajah C.oekwar of Maroda. was married in London to Prince .liteudra. son of tlio maharajah of Cooch-llehar, after a ro- ; mantic courtship. The initial ceremony, which took j place in the strictest privacy, was performed at the hotel where the young bride had been staying, . nun wjtB nccompanicu oy me customary Hindu rites. Prior to the marriage Princess Indira had been received in to the Itrahuniist faith, the "reed of the bridegroom. Subsequentv the form* of a elvil marriage were. ;one through at a registry ofF.ce.

Hespect. esteem, obedience and support are all a part of that honor which is commanded, see I'rov. 1:8; Eph. ft: 1-3; Matt. 15:4 ft. Notice also that w nnan's place is here made equal to that of the man It is Paul who emphasizes the fact that this is the "tirst commandment with promise." and also that to neglect this duty is to Invite punishment (Kph. ft:2. 31. It is the business of the child to honor the parent, no matter what may be his character: he must not sit in judgment. On the other hand, the parent has an obligation to the child, Eph. 6: 4. Human Life Sacred. VI. The Sixth Commandment, v. 13. This is a revelation of the sactedness of human life. (lod alone has the right to take away or command to take away human life. One reason for tips is because we are made in his image. Gen. 9:6. VII. The Seventh Commandment, v. 11. This commandment deals with the sanctity of the married relation and indicates the sacrodness of parenthood. There is no other sin that so speedily undermines human character and overthrows families, tribes and nations. It is the source of. or leads to, every crime in the calendar. It dentolishes the moral sense, wrecks the , body. brings a hell of remorse, misery and despair, and effectually bars man i from heaven, I Cor. 6:10, 11; lleb. 13:4; Hov. 32:15. VIII. The Eighth Commandment, v. 15. Hero is a statement which deals with the sacred rights of possession. I To take that which rightfully belongs to another is to steal. It does not matter if it be done "within the law" j by withholding a just compensation or by gambling, it is just the same. I)eut. 24:14, 15. This works both ways. The employe who steals his employer's time, the buyer or the seller who cheats, lotteries in the church or out of it, these are forms of stealing in that they take something without rendering a just equivalent of value. IX. The Ninth Commandment, v. 16. This commandment recognizes the sacred rights of character and insists upon absolute truth as a standard of judgment. Reputation cannot he passed on front father to son; It is much harder to secure than money and is far more valuable. Backbiting. fals?< slander are not compatible with love frr your neighbor. To give wings to a bit of scandal you have received is to violate this law. The Most Severe. X. The Tenth Commandment, v. 17. VI.ia i.. -? > - ** in i>t-i nit|im uiu mosi severe requirement of any in this second group 3f laws. The man who keeps this will readily and easily keep the four which immediately precede it. All desire for those things that belong to another is inconsistent with true love, and in the light of this law such a desire is sin, j n a, more, it is idolatry, Col. :i: T?. I^ard as it is there is, however, a way io observe it, vis., to " love your neightor as yourself." Such love will de>iro that he shall have the best things ind consequently makes it impossible ror us to covet his possessions. The effect (v. Ik) upon the people of his manifestation of God's glory and he giving of the law was that they vero tilled with fear and besought doses rather than God to speak with hem. This is a commentary upon the , vords of Paul just referred to, and m illustration of the need of the law 1 is a revelation of sin. Moses respond- | d (v. 20) to their fear with words of insurance, and explained to them that ; his fear was to prove them that they ihould not sin. I.ifo that is truly rooted in religion ?xpresses itself in morality of the l lighest type. Without right relations 1 vith (lod we cannot expect that chil- 1 Iron will properly honor their parents, ! hat human life will be safe, that the narriage relations will be held as lacred, that the rights of property w ill >e recognized, that truth will be the j >asls of judgment, or that covetousless and envy will not be the insplraion of fraud nnd wrong doing of all cinds.
