SOCIETY NOTES. PRETTY WOMAN. Sir Harry Singh, rajah of Jammu and Kashmir, who was trapped in a bedroom in Paris with pretty Mrs. Maude Robinson, and held up for nearly a million dollars hush money,' is only one of the many victims who are annually trapped by blackmailers. A pretty woman who allows herself to be drawn into and be used for blackmail can do much damage to society and there are many who will fall for her. No doubt the English government will make an example of the blackmailers and will deal harshly with them. Such intrigue and blackmailing schemes should be discouraged by the severest kind of punishment for all involved. EGYPT IS HELPLESS. Egypt is a pacific nation, without navy and army and in case of war is as helpless as a lamb in the claws of a bear. Any predatory nation can go in and take the country. She must rely upon justice and right in her cause of action. Egypt has applied to the League of Nations for help in her great difficulty with England. The great deal of publicity and criticism in all parts of the world has tended to ease matters, and it is to be hoped that the entire matter will be satisfactorily cleared in the near future. League or no league, just remember, In time of peace, prepare for war. FRENCH LOAN A $100,000,000 bond issue, a loan to the French Republic, has been floated by J. P. Morgan and associates in this country, which the people will be asked to absorb. European bond issues are coming pretty regular, and it probably means that Europe will never get out of her debt to us. Well, it is better that they owe us than we owe them. Thus the new' world becomes the dictator. A GORDON VIEW. Miss Anna M. Gordon, president of the Womans Christian Temperance Union, say although this amendment (Eighteenth Amendment) is not yet five years old we have reason to be distinctly proud of it. It is quite evident that Miss Gordon does not circulate outside of her small coterie of members. A visit to our penitentiaries and insane asylums would probably force her to ask questions. She believes the society will reform the world. We wish her success. She has a big job on her hands. JAPAN IS STUBBORN Japan dictated in a special conference relating to the shipment and manufacture of opium. Japan claimed the right to handle the trade as she saw fit and when opposition arose, principally from race great Britain, Japan bolted the conference. Ihus the yellow' will continue to dictate and regulate the opium traffic.

The pulsing night, gleaning a harvest rich in warm expectancy, Sprinkles the back-yard of the sky with spray of irredescent stars; The while a thousand darkling shadows clamoring to forefend, Push back the eager dawn, with sable bars. KISMET. The candles flicker, And the crouching gloom, Stretches her clammy arms To clutch the gasping, light. I breathe, A tenantless, deserted, husk; My soul searching afar Heads not my battle with the night. VERBOTEN. Thy haunting smile quivers athwart the night, Thy shrouded eyes intrigue and sway; The aura of thy love, faint ignis fatuous of delight, Beacoris mo on and on through fields elysium, Forbidden ah, thou mystery of love, I dare not stray.
