rine, CROWN PRINCE PLANNED
NED
Princess Radiziivill continues her
story of the sad married life of the ex -
Crown Princess of Germany in Good
Housekeeping. .It consists largely of
a series of incident that how the brutal-
ity, and sensuality of the Crown Prince
but the story gives interesting glimp-
ses behind the curtain at Pot; am. Af-
terothe
reading of the home -life f
Hohenzollerns, it is easy to under-
stand many -things in connection with
the origin and conduct of the war.
ThePrincess in Part:
Cecile looked forward to her hus-
band's arrival with dread. He greet-
ed her, to her surprise, with gentle-
ness and an apnes.rance of affection.
She loaew his dissimulation too well
to- accept his manner for what it seem-
ed, and she awaited an explanation
and received it from the Crown Prince
himself. -
He had been greeted in India, as
representative of the German ruler,
with all the pageantry of royal honors,
and had been lavishly feted and enter-
tained by civil and military authorities.
His vanity had been egregiously ex-
cited by the attention he had received,
which he compared with the subjuga-
tion of his personality to that of his
equally vain father in Berlin. Fred-
erick William told his wife that he had
determined •to assume in Gerany the
position which was rightfully his own,
and to take Dart in politics and' the ad,-
ministration
d,ministration of affairs . He knew that
the Kaiser disliked him and that he
was unpopular. Popularity was the
first thing which he must" attain, and
he asked the assistance of his wife.
0 - Cecile was in disagreement with the
Kaiser, and well as she had learned
to know her husband she would have
given much to be able to live with
;him with°even the appearance of amity.
She saw in his proposal the one pur-
pose upon which they -could agree.
They perceived that the easiest place
for the Crown Prince to 'gain popular-
ity was where - the Kaiser was un-
popular; that was the army, whose
high officers complained bitterly that
William II did nct have its interest
enough at heart. It was given out
that Frederick Wiliam, assisted by
. the Crown Prince, had taken up ser-
iously the study of -politics and mili-
tary science. - Eminent professors were
summoned to the Kr. onpri nzlichen
Palast to give instruction and advice.
The `report that the future Emperor
and his consort were sedulou sly pre-
paring for the duties they would have
to fulfil caught t1 ' tea -allay taste, and
the result became evident at the next
annual military review.
The Crown Prince, in the full glory
of military panoply and mounted on a
superb bay horse wa • greeted by out-
bursts of acclamation fxom the troops.
'The Kaiser folic wing hiir, wag met by
silence. The Kaiser was furious, and
to irevenl a repetition of the offense
be changed the coli_ :tiquette7 thence-
forth, he dteretd, the Crown Prince
shoald follow his father upon parade. '
How much -William II knew of the un-
derstanding between the Crown
Princess and hie heir Cecile did not
know, but court ?iffy in Berlin was
made of.intrigue within intrigue,
and e K-'-er o_ e red that Frederick

himself to give the order to his
but was obliged to - ()bey. The Crown
Prince, as she -and probably the
Kaiser -expected, was seized by one
of his ungovernable rages. He accuse
ed her violently of playing a double
hand -and pretending, to. assist him
merely that -she might ~curry; favor
with his father by betraying to him'all
that took place. He raised his fist
against her, and she fled out into the
garden to escape his blows. , As
soon as she was sure •that he had
left the palace she called her maids
and had her belongings moved to a
room next to the nursery where her
children slept.. She thought = this
would bring Frederick - William to a
realization - of the risk of open ` dis-
agreement between them, but he only
thanked her for relieving himof her
presence. -
Thus Cecile found herself thrown
back into - the life in which her hus-
band was never alone with her with-
out voicing some derisive :or abusive
word. In the inconsistency of . - his
character, he still asked her advice,
though their estrangement widened
and their marriage went from worse
to worse.
Her ,position as Frederick "William's
wife had become involved and strange-
ly inconsistent. He abused and con-
sulted her,and she, hated him ' and
helped him, She did not yet fully
realize what her aid to him in increas-
ing his popularity with the army
might come to mean. He had sur-
rounded himself with young, war -
lauding officers. - They discussed
theoretical campaigns and lamented
among themselves the poltroonery of
the. Kaiser who, after Agadir had
knuckled down to the Entente. Ger-
many, 'he said,' should have enforced
her will by a short, victorious,war; ex-
cept by that she would never regain
the standing she had lost. Their dis-
cussion culminated when, in the Reich-
stag, the Crown Prince applauded
loudly the speeches , of the gppositimi
attacking the foreign policy of his
father.

son and told him he had been given.
command of the Death Hussars sta-
tioned at Dantzig-a command which
meant virtually exile; he was permit-
ted to return to. Berlin only if he re-.
ceived direct orders. The overweer_-
ing vanity of her husband, Cecile dis-
covered, found food for self -adula-
tion in this. He was becoming, he told
her, too important for his father to
permit him to remain in Berlin. On
taking over his cocnand, his vanity
burst forth in a speech to his troops,
int which he told them that his great-
est ambition was to lead -them in a
victorious war against the enemies of
Germany. The speech, which was re-
produced by newspapers all over the
world, aroused in general only amuse-
ment at the vaporings of a conceited
young man, but for Cecile it awoke
realization of what had :been taking
place within her husband's mind.
The two countries against which he
and his officers discussed campaigns
were France and Russia. .. They were
her countries; she was descended from
the rulers of one, and she had been
brought up in the other; -she loved
them both.- The Crown Princess of
Germany perceived suddenly that the
stakes with which she and this su-
premely selfish' young man had been
gambling for the gratification of their
young ambitions were human stakes
of -the greatest magnitude, that they
involved the lives and fates of per-
sons ° among whom she had spent the
happy portion of her life, per-
sons whom she loved. -
She tried to cheek" . the Crown
Prince's expressions
,enthusiasm, and h'e told her she was
ignoarnt aiid stupid. She refused then
to be present at •the gatherings of his
officers - where he discussed his future
campaigns. When theyassembled,
she retired to her own rooms. She
could hear from there their drunken
shouts and the applause -with which
they greeted one another's belligerent
toasts, and she recognized - that the
last bond between her and her hus-
band -the recognition of their mutual
ambition -had broken.
Her married life in this Dantzig
exile was worse than she had yet ex-
perienced . He accused -her of not for-
warding his aims, and .,she - replied
with- recriminations against the indig-
nities, to . which he subjected her. He
never met her without bickerings and
taunts, and shouted at her -the accuse --
tion that she had violated her mar-
riage vows. This descendant of the
Tzars wedded to a descendant of; the
Kaisers recognized that her life was
becoming like a quarrel in a brothel.
He came in one day from riding
and repeated to her his accusation of
infidelity. She denied it indignantly.
His riding whip lay on the table
where he had tossed it as he came

Tzar. ,Cecile, hearing her - mother's
cries, opened the door, and the two
women fell. into each other's arms.
They locked themselves in the room,
and, the general, not knotting what to
do under these embarrassing circum-
stances, telegraphed the Kaiser for in-
structidns.
Meanwhile Cecile showed her mother
the red whip weal across her cheek
and told her story. Anastasia
Michalowna's ambition yielded"for the
time being 'to her mother love, and
she sent a message to the Kaiser, de-
manding a separation between Cecile
and the Crown Prince and that Cecile
should be given possession° of the
children. She would, she asserted, if
this were not done, acquaint all the
sovereigns of Europe with what had
occurred and ask their intercession
for the" protection of her daughter.

force if she refused. Her maid, she
learned afterward, on discovering her
absence, had run to the Crown Prince,
who replied that he was glad that she
was gone and would do nothing about
it. Then the servants, in their per-
lexity, had wired the_Kaiser, and he
ad ordered that she be stopped and
brought back to Berlin.
Cecile begged them to allow her a
day's rest in a hotel at Lindau, and
the general agreed, but set an armed
sentinel on guard before her do6r.
She bribed the chambermaid, with a

a thousand more, to telegraph her

With a minmum of expense and tare.
Throughout this article the varieties
mentioned are listed in the order of
their season of use, so that intend-
ing planters may be guided in mak-
ing a selection to covet the season.
In order to simplify the selection
of varieties for any given district a
classification of the most desirable
varieties is given herewith based on
their relative hardiness, which is
their ability to withstand - cold irlINT
ters successfully.
Hardiest: -Transparent, Duests,
Dudley, McIntosh, Hibernal, Crabs.
These are hardy as far north as -
Parry Sound, and can be grown sue,
cesisfully even further north.
Second Hardiest:-A.s t r a c h a lt
Alexander, St. - Lawrence, Wealthy,
Culvert, Snow, Scarlet . Pippin, Wolf

Third Hardiest: -Blenheim, Tot
elan, Spy.
Fourth Hardiest : --- Gravenstein,.
Wagner, Stark, Greening, Ben Davis.
Fifth Hardiest: These varieties
are more or less tender and thrive'
best south of a line drawn front
Hamilton to Brantford and Goderielt-
Cayuga, Ribston, Hubbardat€ u,
Grimes, °Ontario, -
Sixth Hardiest ---These varletge6
are tender and thrive best in the
Lake Erie counties, although they
are not entirely atisfaetory even
there -Jonathan Winesap, Spitzes•
berg, Newtown.
King and Baldwin are omitted
from the above .classification for the
reason that - their inclusion would
probably be misleading. It is true.
that these varieties were formerly
listed in about the fourth grade for
hardiness, but intending planters
would da well to make careful note
of the fact that they have winter
killed badly of -recent years, even im
the - most southerly counties of
Ontario.'
The varieties which` come into
bearing earliest (about live or six
