Two men were riding on his train. One of them produced a flask and said to the other: "Try a sip of this. It's the old stuff." "No, I don't drink anything now. I'm afraid of it." "Aw, go on.

NO CHANCEFOR FORMER KAISER Germany Does Not Want the Former Emperor to Come Back to Throne. Bv CARL D. GROAT. United Press Staff Correspondent. New York, Nov. 2. Wilhelm of the House of Hohenzollern, now sawing wood at his exile home Haus Doom in Holland has just as good a chance of going back to Germany as Kaiser as A dishonest man who wouldn't al-jj have The difference in the two cases is tnat I can t ana aun 1 wam iu, wim Wilhelm can't, but may want to Americans ask 'the question. "Will Wilhelm come back?" perhaps more fre- j quently than any other about Germany. The answer is an unequivocal "no," if words and deeds of the days since the revolution in Germany are any crite rion. Germany doesn't want Wilhelm back. Not even the men who frankly strive for restoration of the monar chical system in GKermany want him to head it. He is. as the Germans say,"erledigt finished. To the, socialists of Germany and they are legion Kaiser Wilhelm is a quitter. He fled like a coward in the nation's darkest hour, Jhey say, and any attempt on his part or that of over zealous friends to restore him would be met with overwhelming opposition. j Germany proved what it thought of ! monarchists when it put a crimp in Herr Kapp's private pro-monarchistic j. 'Putsch" tast year; and since that time the national feeling hasn't swung any more in favor of return of a monarchy. iThe Erzberger demonstration, a demon 1 stration againsct reaction, shrowed that the Junkers and the rabid monarchists who seek to restore the old order through assassination and terrorism . haven't a chance. j I would scarcely venture to assert 1 that constitutional monarchy, such as England's, would not one day come to Germany- But at the moment, the consciousness of the people is for a democracy. The eight-hour day about the only fruit of the revolution pleases j the German worker, and he knows if a monarchy returns he will exchange it for an industrial slavery of 12 to 14 hours a day at low wages. The men who want a monarchy back are, for the most part, -disgruntled in dividuals, who have lost money or posi tion through the overturn. Released offi cers curse the new regime. I But for the average man, the republic J j is satisfactory.. Its overturn might per- naps come udoui inrougn over-neavy , tax burdens, for "the pro-monarchists appeal to the ignorant with the plea ! j that things were better "in the old days" 5 I npcrlfiptinp in nnint nut that a lnat war j with a staggering debt and new econ 1 omic conditions would not make the j common man's lot easier, even under a kaiser. The monarchists talk of the Crown Prince's son as a possible throne can didate; others would have a Bavarian monarch. But the monarchists them selves with of course, some exceptions say, "Let the republic carry the hod, repair the -country, and then let us in, say ten or twenty . years, seek t8 re store a monarchy." Their prospects in that time may be better. At present, Germany isn't troub ling itself to any extent with the ques tion. The outside world worries more about it than the German.
