The Cologne Gazette has published an- other of its extravagant communications from Berlin about the situation in the Bal- kans and the doom of the Allies. The ab kurd language of the German Foreign Office Press Bureau is presumably an in- vitation to the other newspapers to beat the drum more loudly than ever,

One, in particular, lives in the memory—a simple painting on the common strew-coloured paper still used in Jason, of a bird on a bough of plum blossom. It was excont- ed 150 years ago, and is a copy of a painting 850 years old that is still pre served. As vivid apparently as it was the day that it was painted, the colours of the copy, the very paper, spoko of eternal youth and freshness, and were in strange contrast to all else in this exhibi tion of ancient things,
