HIS BEST FRIENDS
DID NOT KNOW HIM,
SAYS EUGENE ROUSE
“I've Gained 15 Pounds By
Taking Tanlac and Look So
Well Peoplo Hardly Recog
nize Me,” He Says.
“I’ve got all the malaria out of my
system now and haven’t had a chill
since*the very first bottle of Tanlac
I took,” asserted Eugene D. Rouse, who
lives at Monte Sano, Augusta, Ga
“I've gained fifteen pounds, too, and
look so much better than I did that
my friends hardly recognize me.
“I was just filled with malaria and
would have the hardest chills anybody
ever had. I got so bad I had to give
up and for a month I couldn’t do a
Hck of work, in fact I was so weak I
couldn’t drive my horse. I had such
high fevers I would become delirious.
I ached all over and my back hurt me
all the time. I got very’ thin and had
so poor an appetite I could hardly
eat a thing and what I did eat didn't
do me any good, t have taken several
bottles of Tanlac and am a well man
today.
“My system has been cleared of ma
laria. I haven’t a pain or an ache
anywhere about me and I feel good all
the time. I’ve had no more fevers and
my appetite is splendid. My meals
agree with me like I never had a sick
day in my life and I’m just as strong
as I ever was and attribute all my
good health entirely to Tanlac.”

The nurse removed all the things
Dick had in the rooms he had bben oc
cupying ever since we had returned
home, and In a short time he was tired
enough to go to bed in the room next
to mine. 1 shall never forget the look
of satisfaction and contentment on
Dick’s face that day as he settled back
among the pillows.
“Go out of my door, Margie, and go
into your room,” he said, "and then
come through that connecting door,
leaving it open."
“Dick, I never knew you were such a
child,” 1 said, as 1 complied with his
request.
"A man is always a childish person,
Margie, but 1 expect he has to be as
,111 as 1 have been to make him ack
nowledge it without sharp*- Do you
know, dear, for the last week 1 have
been planning and figurng how I could
get myself ensconced in this room so
that looking up I could see you coming
through that doorway just as you have
done, sweetheart.
"Margie, the sight of you was almost
like the first sight of you when I look
ed up from the dor of the schoolroom
and saw you for the first time." He
turned over and made himself more
comfortable and then he sighed. “1
expect we ll have to get out of this
home if Mr*. Selwin did not make a
will, Margie,” he said.
This statement surprised me. for
somehow I had always suspected that
Mrs. Selwin would leave the house to
Dick. "What makes you think that,
Dick? I always understood Mrs. Sel
win had no relatives.”
"Oh, there will be someone to turn
up, you can wager when there is mon
ey to be distributed, and 1 don’t think
she made a will. But, Margie, we've
got enough to live on anyway and if
anyone else does get her share of the
book concern, I'll just make them a
proposition to either buy or sell.”
He bad pulled me down in a low
chair beside the bed and had both my
hands in his. We were situated thus
when the nurse came in and said that
Mr. Eddie, Mr. Samford—the Selwin
lawyer—and a Mr. Wellington wanted
to know if Dick felt able to see them.
“Yes, let them come in,” he said.
“Do you think you are able to take
up business worries again, Dick?"
THE KNIGHT OF THE BLUE
FLOWER—-Part 11.
Although the Prince did not know
what it meant, or, indeed, that it was
a flower from his old home, he knew
that someone must be trying to com
municate with him and that there
was some hope of escape for him.
The next day the dove came again,
and this time around its leg was a
thread wound- many times.
The Prince removed it and carefully
saved it and the next day again the
dove came with more thread.
Each day it came until the Prince
had enough, it seemed to him, to
reach the ground.
“But what good will that do?" he
thought. "I cannot let myself down on
a slender thread. However, J will not
give up hope; this thread must mean
something.”
The next day the dove brought a bit
of paper, which the Prince untied with
trembling fingers, and read on it one
word—“ Let,”
Feeling that the next day would
bring something that would tell him
the meaning of the thread and the
word, the Prince watched with hope
in his heart. ,*
When the dove came it brought an
other bit of paper, and this time the
Prince read another word—" Down.”
Someone was surely trying to help
him, he was sure now.
Wj [ 1 T/ff/vfArr
J final— S’ o ** cis/ej
The next (lay the dove broght the
word “Thread.”
“Let down thread." said the Prince.
“But when shall I let it down—l
must wait. Surely my unknown friend
will tell me when to act.”
But the next day the dove did not
come and the Prince lost hope. "Has
someone raised within me the hope of
escape only to take it from me?” -he
cried as he strained his eyes for his
little messenger of hope.
The day after, however, the Prince
saw far off the dove flying toward the
tower, and this time tied to its fool
was the paper with one word on It,
"Tonight”
"Let down thread tonight.” At last
he had the whole message, and he
could hardly wait until the daylight
faded to let down the thread.
Tying a bit of stick to one end the
Prince carefully lowered it by the
slender thread, and after awhile he
felt a slight tug. Trembling with Joy
of hope he almost let go of the thread,
but he managed to give an answering
pull, and In a minute more he felt
homething heavier tsan the bit of
wood on the thread and began to pull
It up.
Tied to the end of the thread lie
found a piece of strong twine, Hiid
again he pulled, his heart beating so
loudly that he felt someone might hoar
it If the robbers were listening
At the end of the twine was tied a
rope, and tied to the rope a piece ot
paper.
“Knight of the Blue Flower,” he
read, "your friends are at the bottom
of the tower waiting for you, fear
not.”
The Prince trembled so It took him
some time to make the rope fast to the
iron bar of the window, and, having
grown so thin from wsnt of food, he
had no trouble in pushing himself
through the space between the bsrs
and, slinging to the rope, slowly slid
down to the ground.
But the long Imprisonment, the lack
of food and he excitement proved
more than he could stand, and the
Prince salted Just as he reached the
ground.
The next thing he knew he found
himself in his old room in the caatla
and his father sat on the bed beside
him.
"How did you know where to find
me?” asked the Prince.
"Th 4 dove brought the blue flower,"
raid his fsther, 'snd Norma knew It
v as the one she had given to you the
nay you rode away from the caetle. Jt
, ■ two years since you left snd all but
Norma gave you up for dead. She
always said, He will come back, he li
“I am able if you will just stick
around," he said.
The men filed in rather solemnly and
after they were seated and Mr. Wel
lington was introduced as a distant
cousin of Mrs. Selwin’s and her only
relative. Mr. Stamford spoke. "If you
are able, Mr. Waverly, I would like to
have this will read today so that it can
be probated."
"Go ahead, I’m all right," said
Dick.
The lawyer began to read and all at
once 1 realized that, shorn of its legal
phraseology, the will was making me,
Margie Waverly. heir to the entire es
tate, less a few bequests to-charity and
SIO,OOO to the cousin who was present.
"1 give to my dear young friend whp
has been like a daughter to me all the
residue of my estale, real, personal and
mixed, after the aforesaid bequests art
made.
“I would like her to give some little
keepsake to her sister-in-law. Mollle
Hatton, to Eliene Symons, Janies 1-ldie
and Annie Rafferty. This, however, is
a request and not binding on the said
Margie Waverly."
To IMck was given all the personal
belongings of the late Mr. Selwin in
cluding his library and pictures.
I was in tears before the will, which
was full of gratitude anil love for us,
was finished. Jim came up to me and
said. "As the largest shareholder In the
book concern, Margie, 1 want to put In
a bid to you for the place of manager
Instead of Dick.”
“I am perfectly satisfied with the
present manager," 1 said smiling
through my tears. "My only fault with
him is that he has been working too
hard and at the next meeting of the
stockholders. I ll recommend you to be
in as assistant if you wish.”
The men left soon after the will was
read and then Dick said to me, "So you
are a very rich woman. Margie, and at
that you have only what you deserve.
Do you really think you can put up
with me as husband as well as man
ager of your business?"
"Well, you see you are the only mo
just at present looking for the position
so I'll have to keep you until a better
man appears.”
I left him shortly and went to my
room. I consigned the two letters from
Malcolm Stuart to the flames. From
now on begins for me a new life.

not dead; my heart will tell me when
he does not live.' But here she comes.
I will let her tell you all about it."
"Welcome home, Knight of the Blue
Flower,” said the Princess as she
came to his bedside.
The old King slipped out of the
room and left them alone, for he knew
his son would roam no more and lov
ers have many things to talk of.
After the story of the rescue had
been told the Prince said: "I have
found the girl with the blue of tho
forget-me-not in her eyes and the love
that does not forget in her heart.”
Norma’s cheeks grew very red and
she said: “You had to travel far, my
Prince, to find her, did you not?”
“The road to happinees is sometimes
long,” said the Prince as he kissed
her hand, "though we travel over the
same road many times to find it.
"But I will never roam again' my
Princess of the Blue Flower; your
knight has returned to be your faith
ful knight forever.”

CONSTANTINE’S DOWNFALL RESULT OF
GERMAN INTRIGUE
The abdication of Constantin* is ap
purpently the end of a long story of Ger
man Intrigue for control of Greece. It
dates back to the King's marriage to the
Princess Sophia, of Prussia, sister to the
German Kaiser, In 1889, the year after
Wilhelm's accession to the Prussian
throne, says the New York World.
Earlier than this, Constantine, al
though the eon of a Danish prince who
wan elected King of Greece In 1863- five
yeara before Constantine was born —wa«
German educated. German tutors from
Lelpsic were his first teachers. Later
he was trained in German military
schools, and after the second Balkan
war tiie Kaiser presented him with the
baton of a German Field Marshal. Con
stantine, in accepting It, spoke of the
debt the Greek army owed to the Ger
man, although French officers had in
fact trained the Greek army, and the
only lessons the Greek officers had learn
ed from the Germans came in the war of
1897, when they fled before a Turkish
army discimplined and equipped from
Germany.
His Struggle for Neutrality.
The story of Constantine’s long strug
fle to maintain Greek neutrality and of
he difficulties Into which It brought him,
with the Allies, with Germany and with
his own people, Is complicated. This is
tho gist of it :
When the British started their opera
tions at the Dardanelles they sought the
aid of Greece, and made certain prom
ises. Including an offer of the Island of
Cyprus and of territory to be taken from
Turkey in Asia Minor, If aid was given.
Venlselos was In favor of co-operating
with Britain; Constantine against it.
Venizolos’s plan was To give the city of
Kavala, taken from Bulgaria in the sec
ond Balkan war, back to Bulgaria as the
price of her neutrality, but the King
would not consent to this.
Consequently, Venlzelos resigned on
March 6, 1915, announcing that the King
did not approve the policy of the gov
ernment. Gounarls succeeded him. Hut
there was more difficulty and a general
ejection followed in June. Venlzellst sun
porters won « decisive majority irt tne
new Parliament, which was convened in
August, and they Immediately forced the
resignation of the King's man, Gounarls.
Venlzelos returned to the premiership
on August 22, having accepted the King’s
program of benevolent neutrality toward
the Allies and the Integrity of Greek ter
ritory. Rut a new factor changed the
Whole fiusa of affaire
German Steam Roller Starts.
The German steam roller started to
< rush Kerbla In September It quick
ly became clear that Bulgaria was about
to Join Germany as an ally and take her
share of Kerblan spot;*. Now Greece
had a treaty with Serbia by which she
wan to go to Berbla's defense if Serbia
were attacked by two powers. Serbia
was to put 160.060 troops o nthe Bul
garian frontier to aid Greece. When this
treaty was made the contingency of an
attack by Bulgaria and Koumanin was
considered. Gonatantlne declared that It
did not apply to the case of a general
European yvar, where great powers were
factorVenlzelos insisted that the treaty
applied In thin case, and that Greece was
honor-hound to Intervene to aid Serbia.
Serbia wa« too busy on her Austrian
frontier to spare the 150,000 troops, but
the Entente Allien offered to supply the
deficiency. Greek troops were mobilised
on the border, hut the King refused to

resign again, despite huge popular dem
onstrations In his favor.
Just before he resigned French troops

gone to the aid of Merbla. But thsjf

In the new election Verilseloa advised

fact thst the army was mobilised kept
many of his partisans from the polls, but

1008 BROAD ST.
In June Gonatantlne was forced to con
cede all the Allies* demands uncondi
tionally and to agree to disband his army.
The summer elections caused further
trouble. August 27 there was a groat
VenizeliHt. demonstration in Athanis, and
for several days there were Incipient re
volts in various parts of Greece. There
were hitter protista against the sur
render by Greek troops of certain forts
on tho Bulgarian frontier.
Rumors o 7 German plots constantly
harassed the Alllea. September 3 they
took over control of the posts and tele
graph In northern GrK> e On the 25th
Venizeloa 4*ft Athens, neelng by night
In an open boat and being picked up at
sea.
More friction developed In October
when Admiral lu Fournet. In command
of the French fleet, seized the Greek
navy, and landed marines at Athens. A
series of demands culminated in the In
sistence that the Greek army be retired
Into the Palopon ne-suN, the southern half
of Greece. To this Gonatantlne agreed,
but the Alllea charged that he was de
liberately delaying in carrying out his
prom lees.
Rioting In Athana.
December brought the most, serious
riots, when du Fournet sent troops to
seize the Greek land artillery In Athens
and Greek troops fired on the French.
Constantine Was forced to apologize for
this and Admiral du Fournet was su
perseded. The last envoys of the Cen
tral Powers had left In November. An
Allied blockade forced Constantine to
agree ot further demands of the Allies,
hut he made such Conditions that the
blockade was continued.
After escaping from Athens, Veruzeloa
went to flalonlkl, and there, protected by
the Allied troops, formed a Provisional
Government in defiance of Constantine.
Oriek reservists flocked to the flag, and
on November 25 his government formal
ly declared war on tne Central Powers.
The Allies formerly recognized the new
government. May 9, 1917, a mass meet
ing in Salonlkl attended by 40,000 people
proclaimed the deposition of Constantine
and his whole dynasty.
At Athens Constantine’e control had
become more and more ehadowy. The
real control lay In the hands of a French
delegates.
Gonstantlne'i life has bad extraordi
nary ups and downs. He was little
known until the war with Turkey In 1 897.
A year before, when he saw the country
