Montenegrin frontlers, at a daily cost
to the Dual Monurchy approa.hlng ?1 -

Vlennese are in poor humor to cele
brate Christmas. For the storex ?< pers
this is certainly a black chrHimas.
Not for yenrs have trude conditlons
been so deplorable.
With the ahadow of war hanging
over the nation, nobody. rich or poor,
ls inclh.ed to spend much money. VI*
ei.na^s store wlndows never were more
attractlve. but all the beautiful and
artistlc wares dlsplnyed fail to dtaw
huslness. for there is none. Jewelers
coniplain that the taklngs are Inflnitesi

goods, pictures and fine chlna aro
erpially discontented. Even the Irades

half thope of a normal Christmas sea?

Though the prospects of pea'.' are
hrlghter and the reservists prohahly
will shortly be dlsbanded nnd per

is little hope that the business men
will he nhlc to recup themselves. The

LIKENS WOMAN TO BREAD

PRINCE'S TH0U6HTS AS.
HE DISCUSSES DIVORCE.
I eame to thia delightful country
with no intention to write upon so
dedcate and thorny, not to aay ax
ploaive, aubject.
I muat aak you to ber.r with me
if I compare woman to bread. Tha
aimile is not so inappropriate as you
think.
Ona would wish to be a great poet
to fitly celebrate in glowing verse
tha finest, most delicate and most
complete creation of a kindly Provi
dence.
Woman is indispensable. She ia
aa necessary as bread or water.
If you enjoy illimitable freedom,
neither your minds nor your bodies
ara in alavary.
I have mat many women divoreed
not only once, but twice, and even
three times.
In England they ara debating the
adviaability of adding four or five
grounda for granting divorce to
those already on tha etatute books,
and here ln America you are eeekinq
means to restrain it.
In the beginning I had conceived
a very wrong opinion of American
man, but now I have the strongeat
belief in their good and eterling
qualities.
With such men and such women
is >t not a matter to purzle any stu
dent of scienca and psychology?

Viceroy Resting Easily After
Surgical Treatment of VVounds.
SEVERAL ARRESTS MADE
Projectile Contained Screws and
Gramophone Needles, Which
Struck Soldiers' Helmets.
Delhi. Dec. 21-The attempt on the life
of the Viceroy and Vicerelne, Lord and
I.ady Hardinge, by an Indian fanatic yea?
terday kept the police and clvll authori
tles of the Jmpertal clty of Indla busily
occupied throughout the night. A larso
number of persons have been arrested on
-uspielon of partlcipation ln the outrage.
Tn the course of the lnvestigatlon It
has been proved that some l.V) peopN
were gathered at the back of the prein
Ises from which the bomb was thrown.
Tn the viclnity als.. was a very tht.k
crowd composed of natives. ThOTO was
8n immediate scramble after the cvplo
sion of the bomb and confusion prevalled
everywhere.
No special police arrangemente had been
made for the occasion. and only the ordl
nary native police, commanded by Britlsh
rrfneer*, were on duty in the street
Scores of theories are abroad tn regard
to the affalr. the most frequently .\
pre?>.ef| be^ng that the attempted assn?
s'natlon was the work of a Pengalee who
was trylng to avens-e what he eonsldered
the lnsult of the removal of India's .-apltal
from CatCUtta to Delhi. The transfer of
the imperial headquarters to the ancient
clty of the Mognls has certalnly arouse.l
an extended feellng of unpopularlty ln
many placcs.
A close examlnatlon of the howdah ln
whleh the Viceroy and Vlcorelnc were
seated when the mleslle waa thrown at
th.-ni showa how nanow waa their ea
cape.
The htgh ba<k of the howdah, which
w.4H made of hardwood and against whi'h
the Viceroy was recllning. waa wrecke.1
hy the splinters of metal, many of whlch
struck the native umbreila bearer atand
Ing behind and which hurled him dead to
the ground.
The bomb was of the ordinary type. hut
it contained a large number of screws and
gramophone needles. some of whl-'h.

the helmets ot" the men helonglng to the
battallon of the King's Roval Rifles, wh"

The Gift of Friendliness -"Merry Christmas"
OVER the telephone comes a little gift of friendliness and
I good cheer. It surprises. It pleases. It makes the day
brighter and more significant. It is the very spirit of
Chri&mas time. It is the voice of our friend wishing us a
"Merry Christmas."
Throughout the Chrijftmas season, the telephone will carry
millions of these little gifts to friends widely separated, and
perhaps almo_.t forgotten. Each message will add to the happi
ness of the day, will _ftrengthen friendships, and will make
Chri&mas time ju_3 a little more delightful-a little more en
joyable.
Of all Chri&mas gifts, the gift of friendliness is mosft appre
ciated. The telephone makes it possible for you to share your
happiness with those who may have less.
Just telephone?"Merry Christmas9*
