The war widow is the devoted wife who faces the perils of battle ' by proxy, the little woman who stays at home while her husband fences with death on foreign soil. Yet the war widow Is not confined, to the soldier' wife, for she whose husband is In the war zone, as yet not called to the front. but expecting hourly summons. Is also one of this clan. There is no room in the heart of a war widow for hatred, even of those who threaten her husband's life. Those who have remained behind in Portland feel no animosity toward each other. Though race may differ, their hearts are too full of anxiety for those at the front. The tense scanning of news paper reports of engagements where her husband might be, the anxious ex pectancy with which she greets the mailman, are too much a part of the war widow's daily life to allow for the harboring of an echo of the jealousies of nations.

THE HAGUE. Nov. 5. Antwerp Cathedral's greatest treasure is Rubens Descent From the Cross, the famous triptych said to have had its birth In the desire of the painter to avoid a lawsuit. At the command of Albert and Isabella he had consented to make Antwerp his home, and built himself a house which unfortunately trenched on the ground of the Honorable Company Arquebusiers. Rather than pay com pensation in money. Rubens offered to paint the plaintiffs a picture of Christopher, bearer of Christ and patron saint of the guild. The mag nificent work was done and placed in position in the cathedral in 1612. There is a legend that the head and neck of the Virgin having been dam aged by riotous students in Rubens studio. Van Dyck was selected by the culprits to repair the damage, which was done eo well that the master f or- J gave the sons of Belial.
