But when a king gives happiness,

There is, of course, the Gallic

ther, old Ring 1101e. But so far as
posterity is concerned, the two kings
are brothers, born of the same gay
muse. They are fantastle and im-
mortal. They spring from a cnnl-
mon impulse to exalt the hearty
vagabond; the man who had wit
enough to devote himself to the good
things of living, and maim no em-
barrassing domande upon the world.
It is perfectly true that such a
figure is mere widely appreciated in

Charles X. was,lleria.inly sensitive on
this point. Supposing himself to
have boon the immediate inspiration
of the song, hie set his political po-
lice upon the impudent autlipr. "The
Ring of Yvetot" was one of the chief
grounds for theeeuppression of that
volume of Beranger's songs in which
It appeared.
Now, a century later, the hymn to
the Ring of Yvetot has lost 1111 power
to insult, If its appeal had been pure-
ly political, it would have passed
away litre so moth pamphlet verse.
Instead, it possesses the quality of
popular art, and, has taken its Place
among the enduring folksongs sf
France.
Like honest art the world over,
it has outlasted life, It lingers on
the lips of Frenchmen when the

more than one half full and the op- i

shortest time when it is only one-
third full. In churning. the ogled •

The Psychology of Color
a

Cruise
CHERRY JjLossom TIME, eMPAN /111/EQ S 72vgMEnCNsm-
Colors that run rampant in the four
411 corners of the world provide the
contrasts that make a lasting im-
p00881bn on the inenfin7 of the world
traveller. Districts wholly different
in their colorful ensemble are but a
few miles apart and the. keynote of
their striking contrasts is color. Today
we hear much about color psychology,
its effect on the senses of people and
of animals; and how it affects tem-
perament and even health.
Colors of the scattered ports of the
world that burst from quaint bazaars
and the co8tumes of the inhabitants
on the streets, vie with those of

colors of princes, peasant and paupers
gladden the eye and make the blood

with their numerous -minarets and

beauty. Each of the countries offers
an ever-changing vista of color and
strike vividly into the memory,
causing the traveller to become in-
