Tho success of his lutest coup would only have meant his death and ruin. Saved by his wife from suicide, and saved by llorthy from victory, he can now enjoy the remainder of his days on the Canary Islands, assured of three meals a day, and plenty of time to play pinochle. ' The kiiij? pamo is over in Europe, particularly in Central Europe. The forces behind the former emperor eared nothing for the kins, he was merely a pawn in the old reactionary game of seizing power for the exploitation of the people. Taking advantage of the general un rest mid confusion, the Magyar aristocrats decided to again try for control, and'wheu the first blow failed, the' deserted Karl, just as they will desert anyone or anything, but their own self-interest. The incident is now closed. In a few months the former Austrian emperor will be forgotten, just as his royal contemporaries have been forgotten" "Whatever comes out of Europe, and present conditions hold absolutely no promise, a permanent monareliial revival will not be one of them. ..-.. .Some wiseacres still sneer at that phrase "To inakd the world safe, fur Democracy." But'tflat is precisely what the world war did foi Europe. Chaotic as the conditions are, the people of Europe are now ;n the saddle, and there they will remain. The poison of regal absolutism may still exist here and there, hut Li the extent that it docs exist, further upheavals will come about to finally eradicate it. "The king is dead, long live the people" has been written in words of blood and suffering across the map of Europe, nd no human power is great enough to erase it.

Tho writer was 'one of tho judges nt tho roccnt Pear Show, and wishes to ompluiBizo tho fact that much or tho fruit shown thoro hud boen soloctdd with great caro and by pooplo who, really kuoy whul (Constitutes high class fruit. ' Considering that this was tho first Pear Show ovor held in tho valley it is really reinuikubla that such a largo percentage of the fruit had been so carefully soloctod. Ilowovor. soino of tlio rrult shown dnmonstratocl clearly (hat tho exhibitor either was In a great hurry or had shipped all his good fruit before ho mailo IiIh selec tions. A few of tho platos could hard ly Imvo boon classed abovo culls.

A Newtown, a Spltzcn burg, a Jonathan, and a Delicious each hnvc a characteristic form; lienco in selecting got specimens as near the characteristic typo of tho variety us possible. Tho size of tho fruit should be typical of well grown fruit of tho variety, not too large nor too small. Some peoplo havo tho Impression that very largo fruit is most likely to win first prize. Tho largest 'fruit seldom wlns'becnuso It Is not typical. A New town tho Blzo of a cocoanut la Interest ing but It is a uionatroslty; not a first class rrult. Newtowns and Spltzon btirgs which will puck rroin llllt to lf0 per box are more representative of that variety than larger or smallor fruits. Tho specimens should be well colored for tho variety. A typical Newtown is greenish or greenish yel low. At least seventy flvo percent of a Spitzenhurg, a Jonathan, or ft Itelleliius siiouid bo covered with red with the remainder or tho fruit an attractive yellow. . Uniformity Most exhibitors fall because the five specimens on the plate or those in the box lack uniformity. Tho individ ual specimens may be perfect but there is too much variation between them. They may vary In size, form, or color. A' company or soldiers In mil form looks better than in civilian clothes; nnd a company uniform in size hotter than a lot of giants nnd runts mixed. In some orchards most of (he Newtowns are roundish in form. IS DEAD.' Points lawn: "Xo buekpassing." the third reading and is passed, lie ' ' telephone. She mav sin' yes.

J All speclmons should bo frco from irost marics, spray Injury, branch rubs, bruises, cuts, atom punctures, Or ab normal russettlng. These nro not part of well grown fruit. Novel' permit a rrult without a stem or with a broken stem to go on exhibition. Such a fruit looks like a rooster without a tail or with a broken tail. Do not leave auy portion or tho fruit spur or leaves at tached to tho atom, as these are parts of the treo and not tho fruit. Loaves go woll with n bouquet but not with edible fruit. Freedom From Pesta Tho modern fruit grower prides him self in producing fruit free from Insect and fungous pests. Tho modern tpi euro also, docs not relish eating cod ling moth and Sua Joso scalo with his nilples. There is nothing in tho fruit kingdom which looks more repulsive to tho fruit judge than the ugly hole made by the codling moth or the flrey red blotches painted'by the Snn Jose scalo. The jmtgo Is unmerciful when ho scores such fruit, it is admitted that no fruit grower will exhibit fruit with a conspicuous codling moth hole in plain view, lint often tho judgo finds a codling moth hole and tho excreta In tho calyx where it Is pver- ikikcii nv 1 ne casual ohserver or caro loss exhibitor. This means a worm nismo gnawing at mo vitals of tho .apple and later disgusting the unlucky purchaser, and cortalnly Injuring tho market. Such fruit is a menace to the fruit industry, a reflection on. tho grower, and a victory of a tiny codling moth over superior man. KOr this reason the stem end and especially the blossom end should ho critically exam ined In selecting your fruit, nnd In ense your eyes are not keen use a hand lens. Remember that while the cod ling mot) usually does not camouflage matters l,e often digs In 1n the most inaccessible places nnd in tho most1 invisible manner.
