The barefoot prince typifies the plight. of many of the best Muscovite familles, The silent suffering and unshed tears of these people the flotsam of the old re gime would make a story full of pathos, it to raise the pity of many a hardened class fanatic. There are thousands of Russian families endering the direst hardships of poverty and the agonies of long months of mental and physical tor ture just because their gentle birth con stitutes them the bated

Terror. daily awaiting t the executioner; others nie enduring a bitter exile in Scandinavian countries, anxiously looking forward to the day of their deliverance. Many of them would. help themselves if they could, but they were never taught to earn their living, so nobody will employ them.
The barefoot prince is but a rung lower on the ladder or misfortune than many of hia kind. In the busiest restaurant In Helsingfors grey-haired мад of aristocratic bearing plays second violin. He is an ex-colonel of the Russian Army and was a rich man before the revolution. He is a pathetic figure.

WHY IS LIFE A MAZE OF INJUSTICE?

REASONS:
Mr. Leacock passes to one of the reasons for the present conditions the era of in- vention, which has widened our horizon and increased the powers of man, while at the same time, paradoxically, keeping man still poor and making him work as bard ever.
