a thoughtful man of the people to me during my visit. That, I believe, ie now the very general idea of the situation among thi middle classes, who would heartily welcome a speedy end to the war. They would welcome an end to hostilities on the ground of " expediency " and _" policy." Except in butter, cream, and milk, I saw no serious shortage of food, always remembering that upon two days a week no meat is allowed to be served either in private houses or restaurants and hotels, and on two' other days nothing is allowed to be cooked in butter or fat. The harvest is expected to be a. good one. Prices are high, of course.
