Armageddon in the Making.
Governesses, so long the butt of unkindly satire, have at last come by their own. Miss Bertha Bowlong, who was governess to the Kaiser in the late "sixties," is shortly about to publish her reminiscences of her now all-too-notorious pupil. Strange to say it never occurred to her to set them down till quite recently, nearly fifty years after the event. The book, which is now announced by the Talboys, is rich in illuminating anecdotes of the future War Lord, as well as vivid portraits of Moltke, Bismarck, Treitschke, Münchhausen, Eulenspiegel, Dudelsack and other luminaries of the Prussian capital.
