THE KING
EX EMPEROR CHARLES is lucky. 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.

Selecting Fruitor pple Exposition

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.

looks like a rooster without a tail or

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. The fruit judge
